| Team | TW | LW | ||
 |
1 | 1 | Houdiniesque as always. How does New Orleans continue to stay undefeated? | |
 |
2 | 2 | The dance of the undefeated continues. | |
 |
3 | 3 | Tough loss to a pretty good Arizona team. | |
 |
4 | 4 | It looks like OchoCinco thought that last Sunday was Cinco De Mayo. | |
 |
5 | 5 | Antonio Gates was straight dirty on Sunday in collecting 167 receiving yards. But, it was just against the lowly Browns. | |
 |
6 | 7 | All Marian Barber wants for Christmas is to forget last week’s game. | |
 |
7 | 8 | R.I.P. Barrel Man. Besides the Jets fireman, you were the most famous of all super fans. | |
 |
8 | 6 | Am I the only one who laughs when the Pats go for it on fourth down only to fail instead of taking an easy three points? Didn’t they lose by one? | |
 |
9 | 10 | Did you see that one-handed snag by Aquan Boldin on Sunday? That was bananas. | |
 |
10 | 11 | It’s always nice to see Mike Vick show some moves. He had a touchdown scamper on Sunday and proved that he’s still got all the right moves. | |
 |
11 | 12 | Did anyone see the male Pack fan in tine booty shorts holding the sign “Hey Coach Gruden, I found a pair of your old practice shorts”? Comedy gold. | |
 |
12 | 13 | Just when we thought it would be time to stick a fork in the G-men, they prove us wrong. | |
 |
13 | 9 | Are the reigning champs not even good enough to make the playoffs now? Whaaaa happened? | |
 |
14 | 17 | Florida governor Charlie Crist wants the Jags to draft Tim Tebow and isn’t afraid to tell everyone. Apparently, he doesn’t know he has a state to run. | |
 |
15 | 14 | Chris Johnson is 70 yards off of Eric Dickerson’s rushing record pace. | |
 |
16 | 15 | We really know just how great Matt Ryan is now. | |
 |
17 | 16 | Ravens just couldn’t put it together against the Packers on Monday night. | |
 |
18 | 20 | Crazy good win over the Patriots. Not such a big deal though because the Pats could play a JV football team and still lose as long as it was an away game. | |
 |
19 | 21 | Potentially, the Jets could win the AFC East. | |
 |
20 | 18 | The Texans season is more disappointing than the season finale of Sons Of Anarchy. | |
 |
21 | 19 | Golden Tate needs to continue wearing a glad helmet. Them’s the rules. | |
 |
22 | 22 | Chi-town ended it’s losing streak, but it was against the Rams. | |
 |
23 | 24 | Are the Panthers still in the playoff hunt? | |
 |
24 | 25 | Why the heck aren’t the ‘Hawks going to continue wearing the hot neon green jerseys? | |
 |
25 | 23 | I’m really glad Thursday night’s game on the NFL network was unavailable to be watched here. | |
 |
26 | 26 | How different would the Raiders season be if Gradkowski had been at the helm all season? | |
 |
27 | 27 | Might this latest concussion end Clinton Portis’ career? | |
 |
28 | 28 | Last Sunday, Tambi Hali had three sacks, forced two fumbles and won a halftime limbo contest. | |
 |
29 | 29 | Conspiracy theory: Brandon Pettigrew tore his ACL on purpose to get out of having the play for the rest of the year. | |
 |
30 | 30 | Does anyone outside of St. Louis realize that Steven Jackson is second in the NFL in rushing with 1,232 yards? | |
 |
31 | 31 | Should the Bucs draft Jimmy Clausen? | |
 |
32 | 32 | It’s best to not pay attention to the Browns and just enjoy Lebron James before he bolts to New York next season. |

The AFC East is such a mess. They must be confused and think they’re the NFC West.
