Kenbrell Thompkins looks like Stephen Jackson (the former Spurs player)
Josh Boyce looks like Kevin Durant
Aqib Talib looks like a bald Amare Stoudemire
Geno Smith looks like Lt. Daniels from The Wire (actor Lance Reddick)

That's about as bad as it gets for a week in the NFL, but Dallas/Detroit and Washington/Denver could be a lot of fun.

We'll see if Matt Ryan and his band of misfits can pull out another one.

Steven Jackson expected to play this week. If he and Roddy White (when he returns) can get back to being themselves we should be in the playoff hunt.

Who are you going to pass? San Fran? No way you're catching up to the Saints. So that leaves one spot for the Bears, Lions and Falcons.

Good luck.

Not saying it will happen, but I could see the Saints falling off a cliff. Sure their D has been getting a lot of praise, but Rob Ryans defense as the season goes on implodes in spectacular fashion without fail. His smoke and mirrors **** wears off, guys get hurt and you can't plug replacements in to his system very easily because its too overly complicated for its own good. Their only hope is their O lighting it up every week, which will probably continue (though with the Jimmy Graham injury it may be hampered a bit, depends how much time he misses if any)
I think if someone wins that division other than the Saints it could be Carolina though not Atlanta. Amazingly the Panthers are the only team not to have played any division games yet due to their weird ass schedule. They've played some **** teams for the most part (outside of Seattle), but their defense has been pretty damn good.

Well here's who the Saints have left

8 10/27 vs. Buf W
9 11/3 @ NYJ W
10 11/10 vs. Dal W (at home, Romo will throw a few INTs)
11 11/17 vs. SF L
12 11/21 @ Atl L
13 12/2 @ Sea L
14 12/8 vs. Car W
15 12/15 @ StL W
16 12/22 @ Car L
17 12/29 vs. TB W

I just don't really see anyway they don't win 10 games, and I think 10-11 wins that division.

Obviously he was talking about the last wildcard spot. You SF guys are so sensitive. :lol:

For all the questions about whether the Rams would call Tim Tebow after Sam Bradford suffered his season-ending knee injury, they didn't. They called a bigger-name, higher-profile quarterback.

After the team lost Bradford to a season-ending knee injury, St. Louis called Brett Favre on Sunday night, asking whether the 44-year-old retired quarterback, who is now a grandfather, would be willing to leave his farm to plow through the back half of the Rams' schedule, league sources said.

Peyton Manning missed practice. The Skins chances of winning up in Denver went from like .0001% to .0002%.

Yea, I gave up hope for the division the second it was reported that Julio Jones was out for the season.
