| Team | TW | LW | ||
 |
1 | 1 | The Saints bolstered their secondary by signing Chris McAlister. Do they really need any more help? | |
 |
2 | 2 | Terrell Owens could learn something from watching the nasty hands of Reggie Wayne. Someone should have checked them for crazy glue. | |
 |
3 | 3 | Fran Tarkenton thinks that Brett Favre is more of a flip-flopper than John McCain. | |
 |
4 | 6 | Wow, Chiefs management certainly didn’t think their banishment of Larry Johnson would result him in joining a Super Bowl contender. | |
 |
5 | 4 | With two minutes left Belichick and the Pats were “on a gravy train with biscuit wheels”, but they “Munsoned” it away. | |
 |
6 | 5 | Two losses this season to the Bengals. I think it’s safe to say that there is a new sheriff in town. | |
 |
7 | 8 | How right was I about the implosion of the Cowboys? Right on cue. | |
 |
8 | 9 | Chris Simms will be the starter if Kyle Orton can’t play? They might as well bring Bubby Brister out of retirement. | |
 |
9 | 11 | The Cardinals are once again running away with their division. Maybe they’ll finish better than 9-7. | |
 |
10 | 14 | Congratulations to LaDainian Tomlinson. His wife is pregnant and he actually played well for once this season. | |
 |
11 | 7 | I guess we will find out how good the Falcons really are sans Mike Turner. | |
 |
12 | 10 | Two straight losses. Time to bring Kevin Kolb back in??? | |
 |
13 | 12 | The slide continues. Are the G-men really this bad? | |
 |
14 | 13 | Needed a big effort in prime-time and got it. | |
 |
15 | 14 | Big bye week for the Texans to figure out a way to gain ground on their biggest foe: .500. | |
 |
16 | 16 | Am I the only person who though that Charles Woodson retired years ago? | |
 |
17 | 18 | The up and down Jaguars season continues. What’s next after a big win, a loss to the Bills? | |
 |
18 | 17 | For a big, mean looking snarling beast of a man, Rex Ryan sure is a cry baby. | |
 |
19 | 19 | Jay Cutler has worse field vision than Trent Edwards. Enough said. | |
 |
20 | 24 | How hilarious is it that the Titans 86 year old owner was seen flipping the bird to the Bills sideline during the game? | |
 |
21 | 20 | Time for Ricky “I only play to repay my debts” Williams to take the helm as the starter. | |
 |
22 | 21 | Off the Shnide with a win over Chicago, but big test against Green Bay next week. | |
 |
23 | 22 | Two questions? How did the Panthers get blown out by the Bills and how did they beat Atlanta? These two questions are making me furious. | |
 |
24 | 23 | Bye Bye, Dick Jauron. At least now he can go back to hosting Tales From the Crypt. | |
 |
25 | 25 | Not only does it rain all the time in Seattle, but every one of their teams (pro and college) is terrible. | |
 |
26 | 26 | The Raiders should study film this week on how to react properly to getting steam rolled by the Bengals. | |
 |
27 | 27 | It said when your punter (Hunter Smith) makes the play of the day for your team. | |
 |
T-32 | T-32 | Almost beat the Saints. Too bad nobody remembers almost. | |
 |
T-32 | T-32 | Nobody wants to watch the Lions on thanksgiving. I’d rather watch a flash mob pillow fight. | |
 |
T-32 | T-32 | First they banish Larry Johnson, now their best player (Dwayne Bowe) is suspended for four games. Ouch town, population: them. | |
 |
T-32 | T-32 | The Bucs are just as bad as the Browns, but they are located in Tampa and the Browns are in Cleveland. Who wins that one? | |
 |
T-32 | T-32 | Let’s go Cavs! |

Almost beat the Saints… sounds like a lot of game descriptions for Buffalo.
