I watched the Charges against the Packers last week and last night's game, and it is ridiculous how underpowered and inaccurate his throws are. He couldn't complete 50% of his passes against a pretty weak Oakland secondary. He was under pressure all night, but so many of his throws were wildly off even when he had time. His release just looks all messed up.
Your analysis of Rivers reads awfully familiar.... Sounds like how Bradford looked in my last Madden online franchise game.

I'd believe that if Palmer hadn't played so well. Maybe he douched before the game. He certainly looked fresher.

Rams win!!! Thanks to Cleveland screwing up a chip shot FG.

It sure did look bad as the Rams took a horrible horse collar penalty on a 3rd and 9 play late in the fourth in an attempt to find yet another way to lose a game. Luckily for our lil lammies, the brownies would have none of it... fumbling and bumbling their way to the loss.

2-7 baby and just a half a game out of second awaiting the Cards and Hawks games.

Lets Go Rams!!!

The Broncos are fascinating. I have no fantasy dudes on their team, no $$ on it, but I can't stop watching them. This Tebow thing cracks me up. The NFL 'talking heads' must be losing their mind watching Denver run this NCAA Div-II offense & actually win with it. I love it. Suck it Rodney Harrison! :D

I really think I want to see a team in the Superbowl that throws 2 passes a half. It would be hilarious.

Not going to happen in a million years but it would be awesome. Not quite 4 passes a game but that would definitely be shades of the 72 and 73 Dolphins.

Bob Griese threw only 11 total passes in SB VII and only 7 total in SB VIII. Now thats football baby!....Yes Bob is in the HOF.

Thats not on Dawson. Center snap was into the lineman's foot,and rolled to the holder. If it wasn't for Dawson's 4 FG's,they're not even in it. That and 1st and goal,they run the ball 3 times despite being down to a 4th string running back. Its painful watching the Browns. Thank God for Sunday ticket,so I can turn it to real football.

Did anyone know that the Bengals had won 5 games in a row before todays loss?

That the Lions had only turned the ball over 5 times the entire season before todays 6 spot?

The Bears have now won 5 out of six games and looked damn good doing it.

I have no number 5 for the Ravens surprise loss to the Seahawks but it did mean that all 4 NFC Worst teams won today.

Gotta love NFL foosball sunday.

Yeah, with their impressive comeback in last MNF, I was ready for an embarrassing loss from SEA but M. Lynch and the boys showed more heart than I originally gave them credit for. Mind you, they are always tough at home with the loud crowd as turnovers was the difference in the game.

I'm pretty sure any QB in the league could of handed the ball off 55 times. Denver is playing defense against so weak opponents. Lets see what happens when they play a decent team, don't they have the Jets and Packers coming up at some point?

Agree on all counts. They will most likely get crushed.

So happy for the Bears, love to watch them play!

No problem being down to your 4th string running back with the game on the line, just hand it off to a backup tight end who's NEVER taken a handoff in his life, even in practice.

You St. Louis guys want Shurmur back?

While the Packers are still the #1 rivals for Bears fans, it felt very good to kick the crap out of the Lions yesterday. I loved that Matthew Stafford took time away from trying to tackle on a Bears pick-six to instruct his receiver on where he should have been. I can't wait for them to not make the playoffs.

Even though as a Ram fan I dont have an inborn Lion hatred, I agree with you about the Lions and the playoffs. How they played in their biggest game of the last decade said alot about them.

Can't believe Schaub is out for the year...the Texans may have had a chance with that awesome running game and Johnson coming back eventually. Now they are stuck with Leinart. Goodbye chance.

Yep. Arguably the hottest team in the AFC suddenly has become quite chilly.

I don't know. If Denver can win running 55 times with Tebow, the Texans can probably do the same with Leinart.

Things seem to be aligning for another nauseating Patriots run.

Actually some good coaching.

Denver's defense is playing outstanding now. They run the ball all game and keep the score close then when the other D is gassed they spread it out and let circus boy run around like it's a sandlot game. Of course the media will give him all the credit, but the fact of the matter it's the Denver defense which is doing the job. The one game they lost with him was the one when the defense didn't show up and they actually needed him to play like a QB.

The Broncos are getting the most out of what they have. Kudos to Tebow for playing to his strengths as an athlete rather than trying to be a QB. Dan's also right about the D. However, they have had a pretty easy stretch of games. The Jets are very average, and the only really impressive win was at Oakland (and that was mostly on McGahee).

Tebow also takes care of the ball. He's essentially the option version of Kyle Orton.

The Denver schedule is pretty cushy for the rest of the way. They have games against the Pats and Bears, but their other opponents are pretty crappy. They certainly are capable of winning the league's worst division if they continue doing what works for them.

It won't happen(I think?), but I'd love it if Denver runs the table. It's fascinating. Plus, I like how it agitates various NFL analysts. That just warms me inside. I didn't give Tebow much attention in college, but I'm really rooting for him here. I hope he destroys football!

When Tebow saw that huge that blitz coming up the middle I think he creamed his pants. He knew exactly where he was going with that ball. Gratz to him.

Ryan on the other hand gets the French Maginot Line award for that defensive call. Let the guy pass. Dont leave the left side of the field empty for him to just waltz around your defense.

This cannot keep up but I gotta say it was fun to watch at the end.
