Bears 27, Saints 24 Rest in peace, 2008 Saints. With a seventh loss, they’re officially done. They still had a pulse at 7-6, but 7-7 has spelled the end for the preseason NFC South favorites. Sean Payton said the following before the game: “We can’t go three-and-out. We can’t give the Bears a short field.”…

Cardinals 30, Falcons 24 Matt Ryan opened up his pro career with a 60-yard touchdown strike on his first throw. His first pass in the playoffs, however, was an interception that sailed into the hands of Cardinals defensive back Ralph Brown. That basically epitomized how Ryan would play the entire afternoon. He had three spectacular…

Bills 24, Raiders 23 They’re growing up before our very eyes. This was an obvious trap game for the Bills, as they had every reason to have a letdown after beating two 2007 postseason participants. The Raiders had a 24-13 lead with five minutes remaining in regulation, but Trent Edwards was able to go 6-of-8…

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…
