True. However I base my guess on what Oilfan so succinctly summarized. But we all agree that TEN is going down.

Agreed! Very boring game...plus I don't like games done by Fox.

So what do we have so far for match-ups next week?

NFC
NYG @ DAL
SEA @ GB

AFC
JAGS/TEN @ NE
JAGS/SD @ IND

A JAGS @ IND would be an awesome playoff game!!! But TEN winning today is not looking good.

All the CBS experts picked SD in a blowout. That's a good sign for TENN

The way this 1st quarter is going, you may be on to something here, GS.

Jeff Fisher in a coma could still outcoach Norv Turner. Turner's lucky that he's got a pretty good defence going against the Titans that'll save him total embarassment. I think Tennessee walks out of there with a win though by like 3 points. Bironis is a clutch kicker and the Titans are used to playing a close game.

n00b question: Why don't QB's use facemask like LT so defences can't read their eyes?

Because it impairs their vision. QB's need to be able to make quick reads of the entire field. RB's only need to see a few feet in front of them to follow their blocks or make cuts.

Thank you! My buddy asked me and I had no answer...and what better place to answer it than CP!

Chargers miss a 45 yard FG. 3-0 Titans with 3 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.

I've got ten bucks on the titans, I have a new philosophy of never betting against VY in big games.

I got the same except I did a Combination play with the Giants...pays $150. 1-1/2 games down...1/2 to go!

This game is brutal. The way they're playing, SD doesn't deserve to win. Not like it matters, the Colts and the Pats are winning next week.

Lots of time left but I might get my JAC@IND match-up I wanted to see!!! Please! Please! Please!

I think JAC can beat IND right now and that would just make my NFL year.

That'd be funny except that we'd have to put moon on suicide watch.
