Surprised anyone is watching this. Everyone beats the Raiders, they might be the most pathetic team in the league.

They absolutely should not have fired Hue Jackson.

I didn't think very highly of Hue. The whole "I'm pissed at my team" spat in the media last year was stupid, his teams were unbelievably undisciplined and he traded a fortune for Palmer.

I think McKenzie/Allen > > > Davis/Jackson

Al and Hue created a mess for the new regime to clean up, but I think overtime, the Raiders will improve as a franchise. Allen has cleaned up the penalties a little bit, and he's only in his first year.

Does anyone think we may see some upsets tomorrow? Also who do you all think will win between Houston and New England?

Dallas winning at Cinci wouldn't be an upset but likely to happen... Chargers might have a chance in Pitts if they are up at least 21 before the 4th starts... New England over Texans

Did anyone read how Darnell Dockett was fined $200,000 for spitting in his team mate's face. I totally understand the fine, but the reasoning for him being fined is funny.

He was fined for "conduct detrimental to the team".

OK, where is Kevin Kolb's fine? Where is John Skelton's fine? What about Ryan Lindley? I'm positive that they deserve to be fined for conduct deterimental to the team.

You aren't giving CIN enough credit: they've been on fire lately! Dalton has been almost perfect the past month and his receiving corps is maturing before his eyes. Sanu and Gresham are making some noise, giving the passing game more than just Green. CIN's D is pretty damn good too. They have 20 turnovers!

Chargers won't win, they're too devoted to losing. If PIT can beat a top 5 team with their QB3, they'll blow out SD with Rothliesberger.

NE should win handily against HOU. HOU's defensive injuries should give Brady the cushion he needs to light it up. Plus, the Patriots have been perfect in the 2n half of the season and it'll be in Foxboro.

Rex Ryan Logic: Announce Mark Sanchez as the starter, then place Tebow as the backup to Sanchez and designate Greg McElroy, the QB who won you the game last week as INACTIVE.

Great Logic Rex.

I have the Jets at Jacksonville and Dallas at Cincinnati as my choices at 1 today. Hmmm.... I will listen to Ravens at Redskins, but maybe it is easier not to watch this game. GO Ravens!

Tim Tebow should be the quarterback that starts for the New York Jets; period! But, unfortunate, according to Rex Ryan's logic, it's just "better" (for the team) to leave him on the bench and Tebow do nothing, at all...

I'm really happy for my former high school teammate, Jordan Todman; not just for playing in his first ever NFL game, but also for already having three caries, a catch and a few kick returns, so far, in the Jets/Jaguars game.

After being "demoted" out of San Diego to the Chargers practice squad, mostly because Norv Turner never gave Todman a chance to develop (since he needed a running back who could block on the roster, at the time), the Minnesota Vikings gave JT a chance once Adrian Peterson went down with that ACL tear, last December. He didn't play, last year, but he was signed for the future, given Peterson's injury was at an unknown status, back then. While Jordan Todman did impress in the preseason, including catching a screen pass, running past all of the Houston Texans defenders, and taking the football almost 80 yards to the house, he, once again, wasn't the "right" halfback for a team. The Vikes wanted a bigger back, so Todman found himself on a practice squad, once more. So, last week, in the midst of the Jags signing Jason Babin, JT was picked-up by Jacksonville, to help out their backfield with all their the injuries they have at that position.

Anyways, now that I've given a summary of Jordan Todman's NFL career, it would be awesome for him to a have huge, game-changing play in what is otherwise a meaningless game on the schedule. I still think he can develop into a Darren Sproles-type of player. So, with that, I'm proud of him never giving-up on getting "that chance".

Wow, I thought we would have to go 2-2 for the division. At this rate just 1-3 might be enough with PIT being destroyed, and I'd bet on PIT to beat CIN.

Ok so there was 15 Playoff scenarios where teams could clinch a playoff spot, division or home field but due to the results of ALL the 1PM games, every single scenario was wiped away and thus nobody can clinch in Week 14.

I picked the Seahawks to win the Division so I still may be right about that.
