I am glad to see the gap close a little bit, b/c had Dallas played NE this week, Dallas wins by 21. Granted, that is the only real "poor" game they played all year and still had 400+ total offense. lol. But still. Edit: also... no Chicago anywhere? beware of the 5-6 Bears... I'm telling you all now that they will be the last wildcard.
I was waiting til someone brought up the Bears. This team scored 6 points on offense until late in the 4th quarter, and even then the tying touchdown drive was aided by a pretty ticky tack interference penalty on Denver. They lost Benson for the year. He was horrible. So I can only imagine what the backup is like. Grossman is still.....Grossman. Their D sucks. I can go on if you wish. PS - no one will either punt or kickoff to Devin Hester the rest of the year.
Adrian Peterson is a better back than Benson. The only reason Benson was playing was because they felt obliged to give a top five pick a shot, but I promise you they are happy they can now move on. And their defense can only get better as they come back from injuries. No way I could put the Saints on there. Didnt they get abused by the Rams and Texans in the last few weeks?
agreed 100%. Saints fans here still subconsciously hate the bears b/c of last year. but they will be in the playoffs imo.
The Bears are terrible, and do not merit further discussion. I'd rather give their offensive offense the ball within field goal range than kick one more to Hester. Hopefully the rest of the league either has the cojones/execution of Son of Monty, or learn from the Mile High Rat. Either way is fine with me.
Cowboys fans still think Romo held onto the snap from center and that they beat the Seahawks last year in the playoffs.
come on now. that's a horrible comeback. you could have at least used the excuse about the greased ball. how's romo doing this year? and as dumb as it sounds, I still don't blame Romo for that play. Had Gramatica not been a pussy and sacrificed himself, Romo would have scored a touchdown on the play.
That's a good point that no one ever seems to point out. All he did was wave his skirt at the defender. Throw a shoulder and take one for the team sissy boy!!
