The Saints offence is in really bad shape right now. Not sure if they'll get healthy enough to get this back on the rails.

It would seem like whomever can win this 49'ers and Vikings game this weekend will really gain themselves a leg up in the NFC playoff race against the rest of the field.

Credit due to the Raiders for fighting thru some more injuries and finding a way to pull off that win. Having that effective deep threat made a big difference in their passing game today. Jackson drew as much penalty yardage as he caught today and he went for over 100 official receiving yards. Once again the Cowboys do enough to plant that seed of doubt that they just aren't ready to be an elite level team.

I don't think there is currently a QB in the CFL who could do much of anything in the NFL. Guys like Doug Flutie, and Jeff Garcia were very dominant players in the CFL before getting a chance to play in the NFL as starters. I don't follow the CFL very closely anymore, but I'm not hearing about one guy putting up crazy totals every week to win games. As the NFL starts to look for more or these running type QB's I wonder if that impact the CFL as these smaller guys who were mobile but wanted to play QB often didn't get a look in the NFL.
