Seems inconsequential, but they've struggled on offense like that a bunch of games, including last week, which could come back and bite them down the road. Wilson's playing efficient, but running more as he's not throwing things in there. Lynch is playing well running, and as the safety valve in receiving. But not as much killer instinct as one would like to see when they get nearer the goal line.

7 punts..on a positive note there, only 4 yards returned, bringing up the total return yards over the 14 games, to 19 yards.

But, 6-2 on the road for the year, and 2 games remain, both at home against St. L and ARI, the Cardinals may still be in the playoff hunt and that will be a good test and the Rams are likely going to put up a better fight then the Giants. That said, always good to pump the overrated NY teams.

I've noticed that the last couple of games as well. The Seahawks seem to play so much more conservatively on offense on the road. Part of me wonders if they figure since they are just better than the Giants, no need to take unnecessary risks.

Jamaal Charles pulls off the Al Bundy with 4 TD's. Alex Smith just keeps playing good football.

Partly the Giants, but they were fairly anemic in the Colts loss, allowing the Colts to stay in the game after a dominant first half. Houston, and St Louis as well on the road, and week 1 vs CAR, so its certainly a road thing.

They move with efficiency, mixing short throws and runs, and then get within the 30 and get stuffed and look totally out of sync. They don't seem quite as hesitant at home to finish off drives

Adjustments still have to be made, and they'll have two tough teams to make those adjustments in time for the playoffs (while hopefully staying healthy).

Saints getting owned by the Rams right now, not good.

Cowboys refuse to run. Its like they think running for an average of 5 yards is a disease.

[Flabbibulin]

How did the Packers not get a delay of game there after the INT??

[Sylvanfan]

Yay, playoffs for the Chiefs! Nice turn around from last year.
