As sloppy as it was at times, the Eagles/Giants game was definitely entertaining. A lot more so than the Packers/Bears game. Once again, I'm glad the Packers won, but once again I was underwhelmed by their performance.

It's usually pretty ugly when we go to Soldier Field at least since the spaceship landed on top of it. A NFC win, a Giants loss in that Philly circus and boom, 2 game lead with 3 to play for the wildcard... Very good weekend in the end. The Browns even went ahead and broke Pitt's spirits. If we go out there with any focus we should be able to blow them out. It might just be Favrageddon in the playoffs at this rate!
I don't know, the D has been pretty solid for the most part. The offense never seems to find a rhythm but they seem too talented for that to last forever, and the line has certainly improved with Tauscher and Clifton getting into decent shape. The special teams are what will write our ticket out of the playoffs. At this point I would just run the no punt, no field goal, go for it on every 4th down no matter what the field position or distance to the first down marker offense.
That's pretty despicable. Remind me not to ever take anything from another team's fan.
I'm now convinced that Devin Aromashodu and Josh Beekman must have done a tag-team plowing of Lovie Smith's wife this offseason, or flattened the family dog, or something, because there's no reason it should have taken Aromashodu until Week 14 to actually be starting in the slot, and there's no reason a fucking future mall cop in Omiyale should be playing over Beekman.

I tried to believe in Tomlinson. Drafted him in both my fantasy leagues. His uninspiring numbers have helped torpedo team 1 out of the playoffs. My money league team may suffer the same fate if he doesn't get his head out of his ass.
Oh, and I'm sick as hell of this commercial:

A win's a win, but yeah, they'll need to kick it up a notch going down the stretch if they want to have any chance in the postseason.
Man, not a good weekend for the Lions. Thats about all I have to say about that.
It's good to see another Packers win this week. Combined with a Giants loss, Green Bay is pretty much a shoe in for the second wild card slot. The only way to prevent it at this point is if the Giants win all of their final three games while Green Bay loses all of their final three. Given what the rest of the schedule looks like- that isn't too likely. :-)
Not quite. There's also this scenario where GB loses out and SF wins out and the 49ers grab the last playoff spot:

or this scenario where GB wins 1 out of 3 of its final games, but the Cowboys and Giants win out and edge GB in the tiebreaker:
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/playoffscenario?algorithm=custom&14=44014115&15=51000041&16=55051505
But of course, none of those is very likely.
Ok, fair enough. Though, as you indicated, both of those scenarios are just as unlikely as the first. So I'm not too worried.
That's the mark of a young team (except Warner, of course) that might not quite know what to do with its success. They don't technically have the NFC West locked up yet, but it won't take long. Both they and the Niners have Detroit and the Rams left, plus one good, strong team to face.
Wow, Arizona just WOW!!
Its collapses like that from the Cards that give teams hope some scneario(even unlikely) may happen to bolster your wildcard chances.

Holy God. At points during Sunday's game, Dom Capers threw out a 1-5-5 defensive look at Chicago.

Which, of course, was a perfect time for Ron Turner to call his favorite play: Two-yard screen pass.
