The Denver game should not have been that close.

Yeah, but KC are monsters at stopping Denver with all their will. They probably were more motivated than in many weeks because it was Denver. I almost pity KC fan. 


At least we'll have a chance to play two decent teams to get prepared for the playoffs.  I expect the Bucs  game to be excellent.


The Bucks should test the defense. We need a performance like vs NO. It is at home so I suspect they will be tons better than today. The bucks D is worse than KC's so I expect a good game. 

GO ELI MANNING¿!!!!!!!!)!!!!

Good game by the 49ers today. The special teams weren't so great with two missed field goals and a muffed punt, but the offense did pretty well, with Kaep playing alright in a hostile environment against a hot Saints team. (5-1 in their last 6 games not including this one) The defense played great (again), with two pick sixes and constant pressure on Brees especially in the second half.

Next week is the rematch with STL, hopefully the 49ers can break the tie this time. ;-p

Still can't believe Rice got the first first down on 4th and 29. What was SD doing? Good comeback win for Baltimore.

I'm not that happy with the results, but most pleased with all of the results in the NFC North! The Sunday Night game was fantastic. It was even more lopsided than the Bears and 49ers game last week and the Pack had so-called reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers play and not their backup like the Bears did last week. Answer me this Packers fans. If Aaron Rodgers is so great, why did they start running the ball early in the second half in fear that the game was going to get more out of hand? Heck, the Steelers turned the ball over eight times and put up a better showing. Packers...

Mike McCarthy wants to establish a running game, his play calling against Detroit was the same when they trailed. And honestly, if I were a head coach and my QB refused to shave his face, I wouldn't trust him too much either.

McCarthy has a pretty ugly mustache as well so that isn't an excuse.  He and Leslie Frasier should get go bowling and discuss how they are going to revolutionize football with their blitzkrieg rushing attacks that will soon produce monumental comebacks.  It's a work in progress now, but is sure to happen...  I almost understand doing this if Ponder is your QB, but the coaching last night was pretty laughable.
