And some folks think I am kidding when I say that the Giants have a legitimate chance at making the playoffs...The Saints had 40 first downs last night.
The Giants are only 1 loss behind first place in the East.

The Broncos have to play Kansas City, @New England, and then @Kansas City in their next three games. That is a tough stretch, but I wonder if the New England and KC defense will be able to stop that offense. The fewest amount of points the Broncos have scored all year is 28.
Peyton is a little banged up so I'm not sure how that will play out the next couple of weeks. If Peyton is ok, I think they can handle the Chiefs. You never know with an @NE game.
Well the Dolphin mess is going to be on National TV tonight. I think the GM is going to get fired over this (he should have been fired long ago anyway - He was the "how does this guy have a job" person in the league before this mess). I'm not sure the coach will survive it either. Have you heard the other ugly recent incident with Incognito? He allegedly was inappropriate (much more than a little inappropriate too) with a lady at a charity golf event. The thing that really sticks out about that incident is that she signed an agreement with the Dolphins not to say anything. So, the Dolphins knew about this (did nothing) and then paid her to shut up? They have a real mess on their hands right now.
I'm glad I don't have an Incognito jersey. That's about as popular as the Aaron Hernandez jersey.

I think the Browns play the Bengals next week. If we beat 'em, we're tied at the top of the AFC north.
And the Ravens aren't allowed to win anymore, so they won't be a factor
Besides, the Bears are having a better year anyway.

Those Peyton Manning/Brady games are bad for my blood pressure. I honestly wouldn't mind it if they went a year without playing each other. But I wish Eli and Brady would play against each other every year. Eli wins those.
That Dolphins/Bucs game wasn't pretty. But at least it was more competitive than Saints/Cowboys. Still, the Dolphins have a lot of questions to answer. On and off the field.
I was kind of expecting them to lay an egg with all of the distractions going on. At this point, there is nothing they can do with the offensive line the rest of the season. One thing that I don't understand is that they have a mobile QB and a porous O-Line so why don't they have more roll-out plays for Tannehill? He just gets buried standing in the pocket so much, I wish he would roll-out more.
Finished all my picks for this weeks games. Tonight's was tough! The team that got blown up by the Rams vs. the team that got blown up by Jax.
I went with the Dolts.

The Colts are much better but there is also another factor to consider. The Colts are the road team on 3 days rest. That is a horrible disadvantage and I wish the NFL would stop doing it. If they want to play on Thursday, why not give teams their bye week before the Thursday game. It's not that difficult, I don't know why the NFL doesn't do it. College does it.
And the Colts miss Reggie Wayne. Pretty bad, I'd say, based on their performance the last few weeks without him.
That Georgia Bulldog defense... Just knock the ball down. Not UP! Auburn got lucky. Unbelievably lucky. All that work Aaron Murray did... Stupid defense.
If Georgia had any kind of defense at all, they would be dangerous.
Stanford has their hands full so far.

Who'd you pick for the Ohio bowl? ...not a tough choice, I know.
Probably going to be another ugly day for the Dolphins. I just learned that the center, Mike Pouncey is in the hospital with a kidney issue. I think they are going to have to sign some high school kids to have enough offensive linemen today. I think Ryan Tannehill should call in sick today.
It has really been a horrible month for Miami football. The Dolphins and the Canes are looking like a MASH unit. It's probably good that the Canes lost to Duke yesterday so they don't have to embarrass themselves playing Florida State in the ACC championship game. At least they beat the Gators this year (I remember telling myself, "I don't care what else happens, just beat the Gators" - so it must be my deal with the devil that is doing them in.

I remember telling myself at the beginning of the year that everything would be okay if Alabama got revenge against the Aggies and beat LSU. I certainly didn't think our biggest struggle of the year so far would come against Mississippi State. I also didn't think Auburn would be even close to relevant his year.
I just hope we can survive Chatanooga. I don't even want to think about the Iron Bowl yet.
Oh, and if the Eagles lose today than no one in the NFC East would be above .500. That division is up for grabs.

The Dolts? (I am lost in this thread - I know more about foosball than football to tell the truth)
I guess the Falcons won't have to worry about laying an egg in the playoffs this year. 
Means the Colts in this case. Just some smack talk, I believe. Just like I call LSU LSWho?
Everyone has their own personal nicknames for some teams, I think. I can't post most of mine lest I get banned.

Indeed. Way to put a stop to all that playoff talk. That will convince everybody.
