Greetings all, sorry for the delay in posting but I was waiting for some additional information come out about the situation with Incognito and Martin down in Miami. My conclusion: Everyone should be nice to everyone else, regardless of workplace relationships. Don't say or write things to someone unless you would have no problem with others seeing what you've written.
Okay, now for a review of this weeks games, which start on Thursday morning.
Green Bay @ Detroit. With Aaron Rodgers and his broken collarbone the Packers are reeling, the Lions seemed like they had the main road to win the NFC North, but they seem to be spiraling. This game could be huge for the division.
Oakland @ Dallas. The Raiders are bi-polar at best. One week they're smoking hot, then the next they look like the number one college team could beat them. Cowboys have talent but they seem to win some and lose some.
Pittsburgh @ Baltimore. This is always a hard-fought game and a Thanksgiving night match-up is going to be gigantic. They are both 5-6 and trailing Cincinnati by two-games, so a victory here could at the very least mean a wild card spot come playoff time.
Arizona @ Philadelphia. The Cardinals have shown a lot of offense the last few weeks, dismantling both the Jaguars and Colts the last two weeks. Philadelphia has been amazing with Nick Foles as quarterback with 16 touchdowns (seven of those coming in one game) with no interceptions since taking over for Michael Vick, plus Foles has received a vote of confidence from Vick.
Tampa Bay @ Carolina. Two of the hottest teams playing right now. The Bucs have won 3-straight; the Panthers 7-straight.
Denver @ Kansas City. The rematch from a couple of weeks ago will likely will lead to home field advantage in the AFC playoffs. Both teams, however, are having issues since their initial meeting due to injuries on offense and defense, respectively.
St. Louis @ San Francisco. The Rams have shown signs of life and could be reaching the 49ers at just the right time. Colin Kaepernick and the Niners just completed a very overpowering defeat of the Redskins on Monday.
Game of the Week:
New Orleans @ Seattle. The Seahawks are undefeated at home the past two seasons, the Saints are smoking hot in New Orleans, but they are not playing at the Superdome. This should be a barn-burner and a reason to stay up late on a Monday. Seattle's home crowd gets loud and nasty, known as one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL.

Our PIX standings saw a shakeup this week, with Brian taking the lead over MJ. Marilea, Scott and Darrell and right on Brian's heels and could make some noise this week. Congrats to Brian for being number one this week.
