			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those into <a href="http://www.betus.com/sports-betting/">NFL football betting</a>, Sunday might have been frustrating for those who thought the rolling <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-jets/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Jets">New York Jets</a> would have an easy time of it with the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/denver-broncos/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Denver Broncos">Denver Broncos</a>, only to lose by 17 at home.  </p>
<p>Meanwhile, if you’re still betting on the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/detroit-lions/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Detroit Lions">Detroit Lions</a> to win (guilty as charged…), you’re either bold (I wish!) or pushing insane (I think that’s more like it…).  How many ways can you say ‘terrible?’ </p>
<p><strong>1. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-giants/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Giants">New York Giants</a> (11-1): </strong>Not having drama magnet <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/plaxico-burress/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Plaxico Burress">Plaxico Burress</a> in the lineup for the rest of the season hurts Burress a lot more than it will the Giants.  </p>
<p><strong>2. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tennessee-titans/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tennessee Titans">Tennessee Titans</a> (11-1): </strong>How do you rebound from your first loss? By completely destroying the league’s worst team, that’s how.  </p>
<p><strong>3. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/indianapolis-colts/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Indianapolis Colts">Indianapolis Colts</a> (8-4): </strong>Winning without an offensive touchdown? It might have helped that they were playing against the offensively-challenged Browns, but Indy’s defense came up huge on Sunday to offset a subpar day from the offense.  </p>
<p><strong>4. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/pittsburgh-steelers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pittsburgh Steelers">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> (9-3): </strong>Just when <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/matt-cassel/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Matt Cassel">Matt Cassel</a> was getting on a roll, he ran into the Steel Curtain.  <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tony-romo/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tony Romo">Tony Romo</a> best watch his back, front, and sides on Sunday.  </p>
<p><strong>5. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tampa-bay-buccaneers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tampa Bay Buccaneers">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a> (9-3): </strong>The Bucs could all but win (or lose) the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-south/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC South">NFC South</a> in the next two weeks, as they go on the road to 9-3 <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/carolina/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Carolina">Carolina</a> and 8-4 <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/atlanta/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Atlanta">Atlanta</a>.  If their defense can have repeat performances from the home games against the Panthers (27-3) and Falcons (24-9), their chances of putting the division away are pretty good.  </p>
<p><strong>6. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/dallas-cowboys/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Dallas Cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> (8-4): </strong>After feasting on two bad teams, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tony-romo/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tony Romo">Tony Romo</a> and the Cowboys get one of their toughest tests of the season when they go to the Steel City.  </p>
<p><strong>7. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/carolina-panthers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Carolina Panthers">Carolina Panthers</a> (9-3): </strong>The Panthers had a tough one at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/green-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Green Bay">Green Bay</a> on Sunday, but thanks to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/deangelo-williams/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with DeAngelo Williams">DeAngelo Williams</a> and his four touchdowns, they got a road win that keeps them neck and neck with the Buccaneers and ahead of the Falcons in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-south/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC South">NFC South</a>.  </p>
<p><strong>8. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-jets/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Jets">New York Jets</a> (8-4): </strong>Just as they took a big step forward with their win at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tennessee/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tennessee">Tennessee</a>, the Jets took a big one back by losing at home to the Broncos.  Talk about a letdown.  </p>
<p><strong>9. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/atlanta-falcons/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Atlanta Falcons">Atlanta Falcons</a> (8-4): </strong>I’m sure it was sweet for <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/michael-turner/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Michael Turner">Michael Turner</a> to run for 120 yards against his old team, but more importantly, the Falcons picked up a big road win in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego">San Diego</a> that keeps them in the thick of things in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-south/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC South">NFC South</a> and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC">NFC</a>.  They have to keep winning though, and that makes Sunday’s game at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-orleans/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New Orleans">New Orleans</a> a very important one.  </p>
<p><strong>10. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/baltimore-ravens/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Baltimore Ravens">Baltimore Ravens</a> (8-4): </strong>Quietly, the Ravens are staying on the Steelers’ heels in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-north/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC North">NFC North</a>.  </p>
<p>And now, for the bottom 10&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>23. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-francisco-49ers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Francisco 49ers">San Francisco 49ers</a> (4-8): </strong>Buffalo may not be the same team that they were earlier in the season, but the 49ers’ win in Buffalo was a good one nonetheless.  </p>
<p><strong>24. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cleveland-browns/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cleveland Browns">Cleveland Browns</a> (4-8): </strong>They did lose, but the Browns held <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/indianapolis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Indianapolis">Indianapolis</a> without an offensive touchdown, and without Robert Mathis’ scoop ‘n score, would’ve had the upset win.  Unfortunately, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/derek-anderson/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Derek Anderson">Derek Anderson</a> now joins <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/brady-quinn/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Brady Quinn">Brady Quinn</a> on the sidelines for the remainder of the season.  </p>
<p><strong>25. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego-chargers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego Chargers">San Diego Chargers</a> (4-8): </strong>Their hopes of winning the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-west/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC West">AFC West</a> may have flown out of the window on Sunday, when they lost at home to the Falcons and the Broncos won at the Meadowlands.  </p>
<p><strong>26. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jacksonville-jaguars/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jacksonville Jaguars">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> (4-8): </strong>I don’t think there were many people who had the Jaguars pegged to be in last in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-south/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC South">AFC South</a> at this point, but that’s the case after their loss at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/houston/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Houston">Houston</a> on Monday night.  </p>
<p><strong>27. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/oakland-raiders/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Oakland Raiders">Oakland Raiders</a> (3-9): </strong>Had they beat the Chiefs at home, they’d have been tied for second in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-west/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC West">AFC West</a> with <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego">San Diego</a>.  Not sure how impressive that is, especially if you’re the Chargers.  </p>
<p><strong>28. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/kansas-city-chiefs/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Kansas City Chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> (2-10): </strong>The Chiefs don’t want to follow the script, do they? They’re not going to get the #1 pick by winning, but they did just that on Sunday at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/oakland/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Oakland">Oakland</a>.  </p>
<p><strong>29. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/seattle-seahawks/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Seattle Seahawks">Seattle Seahawks</a> (2-10): </strong>It’s almost over, Mike.  Just four more games to go.  </p>
<p><strong>30. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cincinnati-bengals/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cincinnati Bengals">Cincinnati Bengals</a> (1-10-1): </strong>That’s more like it, Bengals.  </p>
<p><strong>31. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/st-louis-rams/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with St. Louis Rams">St. Louis Rams</a> (2-10): </strong>It’d have been a big win for the Rams had they knocked off the Dolphins, but they fell short.  </p>
<p><strong>32. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/detroit-lions/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Detroit Lions">Detroit Lions</a> (0-12): </strong>There’s not a lot to say about this team that hasn’t been said already.  </p>
<p>If you’re going to make any wagers on this weekend’s games, your online sports book destination should be <a href="http://betus.com">BetUS</a>.  I’m not sure if they’re going to have an over/under on the amount of penalties Flozell Adams might draw against the Steelers’ tenacious defense on Sunday, but they do have a wealth of wagering options, so head on over there.</p>

After an impressive home win against <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego">San Diego</a> in Week 7, the Bills were in position to fully seize control of the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-east/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC East">AFC East</a>, with all three of their division foes ahead.  </p>
<p>However, in the last four games, everything that went right for the Bills in their 5-1 start has gone wrong, and with the Jets on a roll, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami">Miami</a> proving that they’re not your average rebuilding team, and the Patriots still staying above water, the Bills are now at the bottom of the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-east/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC East">AFC East</a> at 5-5 after their 29-27 loss to the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cleveland-browns/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cleveland Browns">Cleveland Browns</a> on Monday night. </p>
<p>The Bills could have easily won in three of those four games, but could have and did are two different things.  In Week 8, they couldn’t hold a 16-7 third-quarter lead in a 25-16 loss at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami">Miami</a>.  The next week, they tripped themselves up in a 26-17 loss to the Jets.  And in Monday night’s loss to the Browns, they couldn’t stop Cleveland when they needed to, and after putting themselves in position for a win, couldn’t get a little Fisk-like luck on <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/rian-lindell/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Rian Lindell">Rian Lindell</a>’s field goal in the final minute.  </p>
<p>The Bills have a great mix of young talent on both sides of the ball, and they should soon be a regular challenger for the postseason.  </p>
<p>But if they want to rescue this season’s postseason hopes before they go down the drain, the offense needs to really bust out of its shell and make full use of its talent.  It&#8217;s tough to pin your hopes on an offense centered around two second-year players in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/trent-edwards/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Trent Edwards">Trent Edwards</a> and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/marshawn-lynch/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Marshawn Lynch">Marshawn Lynch</a>, but it&#8217;s safe to say we haven&#8217;t seen the best of the Bills&#8217; offense yet, by any means.  Just as much, the defense needs to be able to do enough to keep leads.  </p>
<p>This team has a ton of potential, and it’s not too late to right the ship and make a run at the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-east/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC East">AFC East</a> title or a wild-card berth.  But, they can ill-afford to be their own worst enemy from here on out, starting on Sunday on the road against a pesky <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/kansas-city/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Kansas City">Kansas City</a> team.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There’s still one more game to be played in Week 11 of the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> season, but Week 11’s first 15 games have yielded plenty of observations, a few surprises, and a few things staying according to form.  </p>
<p>The Titans keep winning, the Lions keep losing, and there was neither in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cincinnati/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cincinnati">Cincinnati</a> yesterday.  </p>
<p>Cleveland and Buffalo get the Monday night spotlight tonight, and I‘ll have something in relation to that tomorrow.  Here’s a quick run-through of what has transpired so far in Week 11.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-jets/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Jets">New York Jets</a> 34, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England">New England</a> 31: </strong>See <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/2008/11/14/jets-win-in-new-england-but-cassel-impresses-in-defeat/1069/">here</a>.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tennessee/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tennessee">Tennessee</a> 24, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jacksonville/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jacksonville">Jacksonville</a> 14: </strong>The Titans can already beat teams with defense and the running game, but if <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/kerry-collins/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Kerry Collins">Kerry Collins</a> (13-23, 230 yards, 3 TD, INT) is doing more than just being efficient, the Titans might be almost unstoppable.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tampa-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tampa Bay">Tampa Bay</a> 19, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/minnesota/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Minnesota">Minnesota</a> 13: </strong>If you hold Adrian Peterson below 100 total yards and no touchdowns, your chances of winning are more than fair.  His total yesterday? 82 (85 rushing on 19 carries, -3 receiving on one catch, no TD).</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-giants/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Giants">New York Giants</a> 30, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/baltimore/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Baltimore">Baltimore</a> 10: </strong>200 rushing yards against the Ravens? In case you didn’t know already, the Giants are pretty good.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami">Miami</a> 17, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/oakland/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Oakland">Oakland</a> 15: </strong>Another close one against a bad team at home, but the Dolphins pulled it out yet again.  If they beat <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England">New England</a> on Sunday, the road to the playoffs is pretty clear for <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami">Miami</a>.  Four of their last five games are on the road, but three come against <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/st-louis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with St. Louis">St. Louis</a>, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/kansas-city/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Kansas City">Kansas City</a>, and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-francisco/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Francisco">San Francisco</a> (their lone home game after next Sunday).</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-orleans/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New Orleans">New Orleans</a> 30, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/kansas-city/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Kansas City">Kansas City</a> 20: </strong>The Chiefs are still terrible, but <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tyler-thigpen/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tyler Thigpen">Tyler Thigpen</a> (235 yards, 2 TD, INT) is emerging as a nice bright spot.  But does he stand a chance if the Chiefs go QB shopping in the 2009 <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> Draft? </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/indianapolis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Indianapolis">Indianapolis</a> 33, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/houston/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Houston">Houston</a> 27: </strong>The defense might still be a question mark at times, but <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/peyton-manning/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Peyton Manning">Peyton Manning</a> (814 yards, 7 TD, 0 INT in Nov.) and the offense are kicking it into high gear just in time.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/green-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Green Bay">Green Bay</a> 37, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/chicago/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Chicago">Chicago</a> 3: </strong><a href="http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/11111346">Second-best team in the NFC</a>? Hard to say that when a team’s 5-5, but the Packers are certainly my pick to win the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-north/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC North">NFC North</a> if they play this well more often.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cincinnati/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cincinnati">Cincinnati</a> 13, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/philadelphia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Philadelphia">Philadelphia</a> 13: </strong>There are certain distinctions that you never want to be associated with.  Being involved in an ugly tie is one of them.  You say great defensive battle, I say sight for sore eyes.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/carolina/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Carolina">Carolina</a> 31, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/detroit/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Detroit">Detroit</a> 22: </strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/detroit/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Detroit">Detroit</a> held <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jake-delhomme/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jake Delhomme">Jake Delhomme</a> to 98 yards passing, but unfortunately, they forgot to account for <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jonathan-stewart/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jonathan Stewart">Jonathan Stewart</a> (130 yards, TD) and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/deangelo-williams/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with DeAngelo Williams">DeAngelo Williams</a> (120 yards, 2 TD).  On another note, what does <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/drew-stanton/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Drew Stanton">Drew Stanton</a> have to do to get his chance?</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/denver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Denver">Denver</a> 24, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/atlanta/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Atlanta">Atlanta</a> 20: </strong>First home loss of the season for the Falcons, thanks in no small part to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/denver/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Denver">Denver</a> doing a good job of limiting <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/michael-turner/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Michael Turner">Michael Turner</a>, who had two touchdowns but averaged barely three yards a carry (25 carries, 81 yards).  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/arizona/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Arizona">Arizona</a> 26, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/seattle/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Seattle">Seattle</a> 20: </strong>The Cardinals might need a monster day from the ground game sooner or later, but who cares about running the ball when you’ve got <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/kurt-warner/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Kurt Warner">Kurt Warner</a> slinging it to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/anquan-boldin/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Anquan Boldin">Anquan Boldin</a> and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/larry-fitzgerald/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Larry Fitzgerald">Larry Fitzgerald</a>? </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-francisco/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Francisco">San Francisco</a> 35, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/st-louis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with St. Louis">St. Louis</a> 16: </strong>Now that he’s got the first win out of the way, it’s time to string together a few more for <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/mike-singletary/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Mike Singletary">Mike Singletary</a>.  That won’t be easy though, with the Cowboys, Bills, Jets, and Dolphins on the slate for the next four weeks.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/pittsburgh/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a> 11, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego">San Diego</a> 10: </strong>Is <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego">San Diego</a> the best 4-6 team you’ll ever see? Maybe so, but they best start winning if they don’t want to be sitting home in January.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/dallas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Dallas">Dallas</a> 14, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/washington/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Washington">Washington</a> 10: </strong>It’ll take another week or two for <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tony-romo/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tony Romo">Tony Romo</a> to really get his groove back, but having a competent quarterback makes a world of difference for the Cowboys.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://theredzonereport.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/donovan_mcnabb.jpg" alt="Donovan McNabb (Photo: Reuters Pictures)" />By now, you’ve likely either heard or read about <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/donovan-mcnabb/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Donovan McNabb">Donovan McNabb</a>’s lack of knowledge about the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a>’s tie rules.  </p>

<p>I imagine that sometime during this week, Donovan might make a post on his Yardbarker blog making light of the situation, as he should.  We’ll continue to laugh and talk about it even after he&#8217;s put it out of his mind, it’ll end up on a funnies and follies reel or twenty thousand, and it might even end up making it on a Coors Light commercial.  Maybe he was more focused on having completed less than 50% of his passes and getting picked off three times than on worrying about the tie rule, but thanks either way, Donovan.  </p>
<p>But on a serious note, his comments and the game itself make me, if not anyone else, wonder about whether the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> should just scrap the tie rule.  </p>
<p>If you’re a Bengals or Eagles fan, or anyone who had to watch Sunday’s game in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cincinnati/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cincinnati">Cincinnati</a>, your answer might be a resounding yes.  No one likes to see a punt-filled <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a>, so eliminating the punts from the equation could make things a little more entertaining…and end quicker.</p>
<p>Personally, I prefer way <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> is played out in the college game, and I think the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> should adopt some form of those <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> rules in the near future.  </p>
<p>Both teams get at least one possession (hooray for fairness!), and having to go for two after touchdowns starting with the third <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> means that a game could end a lot quicker than it might if teams were still allowed to kick extra points.</p>
<p>Of course, the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> could make some tweaks to those rules.  They might think it’s a little too easy to score if the teams start at the 25 in each <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a>, so there could be some changes in that area.  Maybe start from the 50 in the first <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a>, move it to the 40 for the second <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a>, and then to the 30 for the third <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> and beyond? Just a thought.  </p>
<p>The current tie rule that applies to playoff games could remain, but I’d like to hope that, if the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> did amend its <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> rules for regular-season games, that they would be smart enough to not amend it to that one.  </p>
<p>Should the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> scrap ties and make some changes to the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> rules? Or do you like the current <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> rule or think ties are rare enough to not have to worry about changing the rule anytime soon?</p>

<p>There are a couple major things that can be taken from the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-jets/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Jets">New York Jets</a>’ thrilling 34-31 <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> win at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England">New England</a> last night.  </p>
<p>The first for many is likely whether or not the Jets are now the team to beat in an <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-east/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC East">AFC East</a> that has been a lot more competitive than anyone would‘ve expected in the preseason. </p>
<p>It’s hard to argue against it right now, certainly.  The Jets are 3-1 against their division foes, with all three of those victories coming on the road.  <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/brett-favre/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Brett Favre">Brett Favre</a> is still excellent when he wants to be, and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/thomas-jones/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Thomas Jones">Thomas Jones</a> is producing (104 yards, 3 TD vs. <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England">New England</a>).  </p>
<p>But are they a sure-fire Super Bowl contender? They’re on the way to proving it, but their defense is still a little hit-or-miss.  Their real test will come next week at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tennessee/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tennessee">Tennessee</a>, when the Fightin’ Favres could face a Titans team that will be 10-0 if they can win at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jacksonville/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jacksonville">Jacksonville</a> on Sunday.  </p>
<p>The other thing to take from last night, and what catches my eye more than the Jets’ win, is the maturation of <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/matt-cassel/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Matt Cassel">Matt Cassel</a>.  Cassel’s had his struggles since stepping in for <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tom-brady/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tom Brady">Tom Brady</a>, but last night, Cassel had his best game by far.  </p>
<p>If you hadn’t been paying attention to the name and number on the back of the jersey, you might have thought it was Brady out there rallying the Patriots last night, not Cassel.  If it happens that you took a gamble on starting Cassel in your fantasy team this week, you came out looking roses, thanks to his night through the air (30 of 51, 400 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT).  He also added 62 yards on the ground, which certainly doesn’t hurt.  </p>
<p>More notable than the numbers is the way that Cassel rallied <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England">New England</a> from a 24-6 second-quarter deficit, operating the two-minute drill to perfection at the end of each half to produce key touchdowns.  </p>
<p>Late in the first half, the Jets were in control with their 18-point lead.  But, Cassel led the Pats 68 yards and threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jabar-gaffney/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jabar Gaffney">Jabar Gaffney</a> to draw <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England">New England</a> within 24-13 shortly before the half.  He would lead another touchdown drive late in the third to make it 24-21 at the start of the fourth, and on the next possession, the Patriots tied it on Stephen Gostkowski’s 47-yard field goal.  </p>
<p>The Jets would go on a seven-minute touchdown drive to retake the lead, and after the team’s swapped three and outs, it was Cassel’s time again.  With a little over a minute left, no timeouts, and facing a 31-24 deficit, the Patriots took over at their 38.  Cassel calmly led the Patriots down the field, completing 5 of 5 passes for 67 yards, including a 16-yarder to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/randy-moss/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Randy Moss">Randy Moss</a> with a second left to send the game into <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a>.  </p>
<p>Had the Patriots gotten the ball first in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/overtime/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with overtime">overtime</a> and not the Jets, there’s a good chance the end result would’ve been different, but even though the Jets walked away with the win, Cassel has nothing to hang his head about.  </p>
<p>I’m not declaring that Cassel’s on his way to becoming a legend, or anything remotely close to that, but last night could’ve been his turning point, and with it, a positive sign for the Patriots’ hopes to remain in the hunt.  It’s all too easy to write off the Patriots, if you haven’t already, but if Cassel can build on this performance and play well through the remainder of the season, the Patriots might yet still be able to make some noise.</p>

<p>Halloween. Trick or Treat. You’d think there would be a clever opening in there somewhere. Turns out Chris Berman has a copyright on all of them. That’s fine - being clever is overrated anyway. Here’s a look at last week’s picks.</p>
<p><strong>Time to Shine:</p>
<p>QB Jeff Garcia, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tampa-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tampa Bay">Tampa Bay</a>:</strong> Garcia did everything but get the Bucs into the end zone. Sadly, that’s really the only thing that matters in football. Miss.</p>
<p></strong></font><strong>RB Cedric Benson, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/cincinnati/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Cincinnati">Cincinnati</a>:</strong> Benson would have been better off spending Sunday drinking on his boat. Miss.</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>RB Willis McGahee, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/baltimore/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Baltimore">Baltimore</a>:</strong> Willis had about half the yards I predicted although he did get a score. We’ll call this one a push.</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>WR Marques Colston, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-orleans/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New Orleans">New Orleans</a>:</strong> European sounding name or not, Colston does not play well when on Greenwich Mean Time. Miss</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>WR Kevin Walter, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/houston/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Houston">Houston</a>:</strong> 70 yards and two scores. I should listen to my gut more often. Hit.</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>Ride the Pine:</p>
<p>QB <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/peyton-manning/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Peyton Manning">Peyton Manning</a>, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/indianapolis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Indianapolis">Indianapolis</a>:</strong> His fantasy number don’t reflect how he played (which was poorly) but the rushing touchdown was enough to make this one a miss.</p>
<p></strong></font></strong><strong>RB Mewelde Moore, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/pittsburgh/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a>:</strong> Moore is making miracles happen in Pittsburg. Shame on me for doubting him. Miss.</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>RB <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/michael-turner/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Michael Turner">Michael Turner</a>, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/atlanta/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Atlanta">Atlanta</a>:</strong> 58 yards on 17 carries. Turner reminds everyone why he was only a backup in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego">San Diego</a>. Hit.</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>WR Braylon Edwards, Cleveland:</strong> The Browns played pretty well, but it wasn’t due to Edwards. 64 yards and not much else. Hit.</p>
<p></font></strong><strong>WR <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/plaxico-burress/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Plaxico Burress">Plaxico Burress</a>, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-giants/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Giants">New York Giants</a>:</strong> I don’t think 15 receiving yards was what Plax had in mind when he thought about making his triumphant return to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/pittsburgh/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a>. Hit.</p>
<p></font><strong>Week 8 Totals: 4-5-1</p>
<p>Overall Totals: 36-31-4</strong></p>
<p>On to this week’s picks:</p>
<p><strong>Time to Shine:</p>
<p>QB Dan Orlovsky, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/detroit/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Detroit">Detroit</a>:</strong> In my never-ending quest to find obscure quarterbacks to plug into your starting line-up, I give you the Lions’ signal caller. He’s shown some improvement over the last two weeks, and with <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/chicago/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Chicago">Chicago</a>’s secondary still a little banged up, 200 yards and a couple of touchdowns is well within reach.</p>
<p></strong><strong>RB Ernest Graham, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tampa-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tampa Bay">Tampa Bay</a>:</strong> Graham has selflessly given up carries in order to fill in at fullback for the Bucs, but with Dunn a little iffy for Sunday, expect Graham to get more carries against an improving but overmatched Chiefs’ defense. 70 yards and a touchdown for Graham.</p>
<p></strong><strong>RB Tim Hightower, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/arizona/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Arizona">Arizona</a>:</strong> While Edgerrin James sits on the bench filling out his AARP application, Hightower should see more carries this week. Playing the Rams, he should get a few goal line carries as well. Not a ton of yards, but put him down for a touchdown.</p>
<p></strong><strong>WR Rashied Davis, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/chicago/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Chicago">Chicago</a>:</strong> Davis has won the job of “go to guy” mostly by default, but when it comes to Bear receivers, you take what you can get. What you should get out of Davis this week is 75 yards and a score.</p>
<p></strong><strong>WR Ted Ginn Jr., <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami">Miami</a>:</strong> I know, I know, I’m a week too late with this one. Yet it’s hard to say how much confidence can help a receiver. Ginn has confidence in spades this week and going against a potentially Champ Baily-less Bronco secondary, Ginn could have his second big game <strike>in a row, this season, </strike>of his entire career. 80 and a score to TGJ.</p>
<p></strong><strong>Ride the Pine:</p>
<p>QB Aaron Rodgers, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/green-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Green Bay">Green Bay</a>:</strong> After watching what the Titans did to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/peyton-manning/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Peyton Manning">Peyton Manning</a> last week, it’s a safe bet that Rodgers will have some difficulty moving the ball against this stingy defense. The Titans ball control offense may also keep him off the field more than his owners would like.</p>
<p></strong><strong>RB <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/marshawn-lynch/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Marshawn Lynch">Marshawn Lynch</a>, Buffalo:</strong> While the Jets offense has been up and down all year, their defense has been stout. Expect Lynch to struggle against them this week.</p>
<p></strong><strong>RB Steve Slaton, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/houston/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Houston">Houston</a>:</strong> <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/houston/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Houston">Houston</a> will have too much success throwing the ball against <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/minnesota/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Minnesota">Minnesota</a> to bother testing the Williams brothers this week. Slaton’s carries will drop as will his production.</p>
<p></strong><strong>WR Terrell Owens, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/dallas/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Dallas">Dallas</a>:</strong> T.O. may have 25 million reasons to live, but I can’t think of any good reasons to start him this week. Back-up QB, three sub-par performances in a row, and a Giants defense that loves making the Cowboys look bad. No go on T.O.</p>
<p></strong><strong>WR Santana Moss, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/washington/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Washington">Washington</a>:</strong> <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/pittsburgh/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a>’s defense has a way of slowing down quarterbacks (ask Eli Manning). There’s no better way to slow down a young QB than to take away his biggest target. If the Skins are going to move the ball through the air, they’ll have to find someone else to catch the ball.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://theredzonereport.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/clinton_portis.jpg" alt="Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis leads the NFL in rushing with 944 yards in eight games.  " /></p>
<p>We’re already coming up on November and the halfway point of the 2008 <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a> season, and what a season it’s been so far.  </p>
<p>At the start of the season, who’d have expected the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tennessee-titans/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tennessee Titans">Tennessee Titans</a> to be 7-0 right now and four games ahead of the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/indianapolis-colts/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Indianapolis Colts">Indianapolis Colts</a> and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jacksonville-jaguars/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jacksonville Jaguars">Jacksonville Jaguars</a> in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc-south/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC South">AFC South</a>? What about the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/san-diego-chargers/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with San Diego Chargers">San Diego Chargers</a> being 3-5, despite Phillip Rivers having a career season? </p>
<p>Then there are the injuries to some of the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a>’s top quarterbacks, as <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tom-brady/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tom Brady">Tom Brady</a>, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tony-romo/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tony Romo">Tony Romo</a>, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/carson-palmer/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Carson Palmer">Carson Palmer</a>, and <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/matt-hasselbeck/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Matt Hasselbeck">Matt Hasselbeck</a> are all sidelined right now, with Brady and now Palmer done for ‘08.  </p>
<p>So who are the best of the best so far? Everyone has their opinions, so I know mine are both alike and different than others.  With that said, feel free to give your thoughts on who’s most deserving.  </p>
<p><strong>MVP</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/clinton-portis/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Clinton Portis">Clinton Portis</a>, RB, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/washington-redskins/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Washington Redskins">Washington Redskins</a>: </strong>With his league-leading 944 yards through eight games, Portis has 260 more yards than #2 Adrian Peterson.  The Redskins are 6-2 with new coach <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jim-zorn/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jim Zorn">Jim Zorn</a>, and the playoffs are well in sight.  </p>
<p>The question about Portis, though, is this: Is his success attributed to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/jason-campbell/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Jason Campbell">Jason Campbell</a> playing near-flawless football, or is it the other way around? I’ll settle that by saying it doesn’t hurt either’s cause to have the other playing well.  </p>
<p><strong>Runner-Up: </strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/drew-brees/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Drew Brees">Drew Brees</a>, QB, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-orleans-saints/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New Orleans Saints">New Orleans Saints</a></p>
<p><strong>Offensive Player of the Year</strong></p>
<p><strong>Brees: </strong>Even with Brees putting up huge numbers, the Saints are still 4-4 and in last in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-south/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC South">NFC South</a>, but hey, he‘s not responsible for the defense‘s issues or an underachieving ground game.  </p>
<p>Brees already has six 300+ yard games and four three-touchdown games, and he’s on pace to throw for 5,126 yards, which would break Dan Marino’s record.  If he can break or get close to the mark, and the Saints are able to make the playoffs, then he could get the edge over Portis.    </p>
<p><strong>Runner-Up: </strong>Portis</p>
<p><strong>Defensive Player of the Year</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/albert-haynesworth/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Albert Haynesworth">Albert Haynesworth</a>, DT, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tennessee-titans/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tennessee Titans">Tennessee Titans</a>: </strong>The Titans’ defense is full of guys who’ve had big seasons so far, like Cortland Finnegan and Michael Griffin with four interceptions each, but Haynesworth is showing why he’s going to get paid in the off-season, with six sacks.  That total ties him with <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/minnesota/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Minnesota">Minnesota</a>’s Kevin Williams for the most sacks by a defensive tackle.  </p>
<p><strong>Runner-Up: </strong><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/joey-porter/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Joey Porter">Joey Porter</a>, LB, <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami-dolphins/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami Dolphins">Miami Dolphins</a></p>
<p><strong>Offensive Rookie of the Year</strong></p>

<p><a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/lendale-white/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with LenDale White">LenDale White</a> is still getting a lot of carries, and has 10 touchdowns, but Johnson, who has gotten the majority of the touches, has helped set up a lot of those touchdowns with his 626 yards rushing.  Johnson, who tops the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/afc/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with AFC">AFC</a> (5th in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfl/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFL">NFL</a>) in rush yardage, also has five touchdowns (four rushing, one receiving).</p>

The 249th overall pick in April has been a starter for the ‘Skins since Week 2, and he’s made 37 tackles and picked off three passes.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://theredzonereport.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/men_hugging.jpg" alt="The Philadelphia Phillies are 2008 World Series champions, and that means it's hugging time for Brad Lidge and Carlos Ruiz." />Is the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/philadelphia/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Philadelphia">Philadelphia</a> Phillies triumph in the World Series an omen for the Eagles?</p>
<p>Tonight, the Phillies won their first World Series title since 1980, beating the upstart <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/tampa-bay/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Tampa Bay">Tampa Bay</a> Rays to win Game 5 and the title after a two-day rain delay.  I actually put some money on the Phillies winning in six, so I&#8217;m a little disappointed that the Rays couldn&#8217;t push the series to six, but I digress.  </p>
<p>Could breaking their streak be a sign that the Eagles could be set to win their first Super Bowl title, or make their first appearance in the title game since 2004.  </p>
<p>Before the Eagles went to <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/super-bowl-xxxix/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Super Bowl XXXIX">Super Bowl XXXIX</a> (a 24-21 loss to the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-england-patriots/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New England Patriots">New England Patriots</a>), their only previous appearance was in the 1980 season, when Ron Jaworski led the Eagles to Super Bowl XV, where the favored Eagles lost to the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/oakland-raiders/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Oakland Raiders">Oakland Raiders</a>.  It&#8217;s a pretty safe bet that there won&#8217;t be a rematch of that one at <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/super-bowl-xliii/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Super Bowl XLIII">Super Bowl XLIII</a> in <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/miami/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Miami">Miami</a>, given the current state of the Raiders, but the Eagles have a fight on their hands to even make the postseason.  </p>
<p>The Eagles are currently 4-3 and at the bottom of the loaded <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc-east/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC East">NFC East</a>, a half-game behind the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/dallas-cowboys/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Dallas Cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a> (5-3) and two back of the division-leading <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/new-york-giants/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with New York Giants">New York Giants</a>, and there are other teams in the <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/nfc/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with NFC">NFC</a> who could contend for wild-card berths, so they&#8217;ve got work to do.  But, they have won two games in a row, and a winnable game at lowly <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/seattle/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Seattle">Seattle</a> is next.  </p>
<p>If <a href="http://theredzonereport.com/tag/donovan-mcnabb/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Donovan McNabb">Donovan McNabb</a> and his teammates need any motivation to stay on a roll and make a run at ending another one of Philly&#8217;s title droughts, this is it.  As for the 76ers (haven&#8217;t won an NBA title since 1983), well, the NBA season is just starting, so ask me again about their chances in a few months.</p>
