Titans 29, Giants 10 Despite the 29-10 win, you can’t really say the Titans outplayed the Giants. New York had eight more first downs and 200 more total yards. The problem, naturally, was the team’s multiple mistakes. Eli Manning (34-of-48, 386 yards) threw two interceptions. One wasn’t his fault (it bounced out of Hakeem Nicks’…

Chargers 34, 49ers 7 This score indicates this game was one-sided, but that’s not entirely accurate. The 49ers had a chance to make this a close battle, but continuously shot themselves in the foot. Check out these errors, all of which occurred prior to the first offensive play of the second half: – Delanie Walker…

Falcons 27, Buccaneers 21 Breaking news: The best team in the NFC just lost yet again. The best team in the NFC is now 0-3 against teams with winning records. But at least they’re still the best team in the NFC. This game wasn’t as close as this score indicates. The Falcons outgained Tampa by…

Saints 14, Vikings 9 Al Michaels mentioned that as the Minnesota team bus pulled into the Louisiana Superdome, Brett Favre looked at the stadium and asked himself, “What am I doing here?” That has to be a much more prevalent question now. Favre admitted that a major reason he returned for his 20th season was…

Texans 28, Bengals 17 Just when you think you know everything, you realize that you don’t know anything. This was a weird game for many reasons: – Every Bengals contest had been decided by one score this year. Against the lowly Texans, Cincinnati lost by 11. – The Texans had the worst rush defense in…

Dolphins 24, Panthers 17 It’s almost as if both teams tried their best to handicap and out-smart themselves in this game. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if John Fox and Tony Sparano met before kickoff and decided, “Hey, we run the ball really well, right? Let’s fool everyone and pass the ball in key…

Patriots 45, Lions 24 Given how lopsided this score looks, it’s almost difficult to believe that this game was in doubt for New England in the second half. The Lions had two separate touchdown leads (17-10, 24-17) after intermission, and it seemed like this would be Detroit’s first Thanksgiving victory since 2003. But as the…

Titans 47, Lions 10 I can’t remember the last time I missed even a portion of an NFL game. I cover the league for a living, so it’s my job to watch all the NFL games. Not that I’m complaining or anything; running this site is a blast. However, I’ll admit that I missed some…

Steelers 27, Bengals 10 It’s the little things. Marvin Lewis told Cris Collinsworth that the little things are preventing his team from succeeding. That was extremely apparent on Thursday night, as the Bengals seemed to do everything in their power to thwart their own chances of pulling the upset as massive underdogs. Here are some…
