Megatron is an absolute beast. How has he only managed 5 TDs? It looks like he's on his 8th consecutive 100+ yard game, and looking to extend it. Yikes. The Lions have been a mess this year, but it doesn't look like anything can stop Calvin Johnson.
Speaking of beastly WRs, it looks like Brandon Marshall, my WR pick in EoFF's fantasy league in the 3rd round of the draft, ended up only 2 fantasy points on the year behind Megatron for the best WR in the league. 113/1466/11 in 16 games was way above what I expected. I was a little worried about him at the start the season, but he was great.
Megatron and Dez Bryant kicked ass for me this year but, my 3rd WR/QB and TE killed me![]()
So...
AFC:
Cincinnati (6) @ Houston (3)
Indianapolis (5) @ Baltimore (4)
Byes: Denver (1), New England (2)
NFC:
Minnesota (6) @ Green Bay (3)
Seattle (5) @ Washington (4)
Byes: Atlanta (1), San Francisco (2)
What do we think?

Adrian Peterson, after recovering from major knee surgery, ends up only nine yards shy of the all time single-season rushing record. Megatron also finished only 30-something yards shy of 2000 receiving yards. It's a shame they didn't reach their respective marks, but both still had incredible seasons.
I hate the smurfing Packers![]()
I'd say next weekend:
Houston (faltering fast but backing the Bungles in the playoffs is usually a bad idea. Houston will lose to NE even if they win this one anyway)
Indianapolis (Luck can help them beat the flaky Ravens)
Green Bay (home advantage, and not sure Minnesota can repeat last night)
Washington (RG3 and Seattle aren't as strong away from home)

In all fairness, who doesn't hate the Bears though? Even just a little bit.
How on earth is tearing apart a team and rebuilding it after a 10-6 season anywhere near a good idea? "ok we missed the playoffs by one game.. better start from scratch!"
I am in the middle on that. While we had another decent season, it was the way we got to 10-6 which probably caused the Bears organization to say enough is enough. I am not a Lovie hater, but I think he's been on the down slide and makes a lot of poor decisions during game time. I think the Bears can do better if they ACTUALLY SPEND SOME MONEY. That's the part that worries me about this whole thing.
Yeah I feel like they should go after Jake Long in FA. I agree Lovie was HORRIBLE with game changing decisions and making halftime adjustments. they seemed very "this is our game plan and we're sticking to it" which doesn't ever work when you're losing and people are getting hurt. But the players loved him and I think generally the fans did too. I dunno just gonna be weird not seeing him out there since he;s really the only coach I've known. Always been a Bears fan but, didn't pay much attention when I was younger (and they sucked ass hardcore).
Grim stuff so far. Whoever wins this game will get destroyed next weekend if they play this badly.
EDIT: Bungles lose playoff match, big surprise. New England must be licking their lips about their game with Houston.
