“The Bears can’t stop the pass,” says Mike Singletary, “and we can’t stop the run. And the Village Bodies Can’t Stop the Music. There was no rapping linebacker in that group, which is adverse for me, because I’ve consistently absurd myself in a abounding neckerchief. Now, if you’re acquainted of my apprenticeship style, you apperceive that I’ve got to be a blowing man. Hopefully, that attitude will rub off on my players, because we actually allegation to be concrete to win.”
In a blow effort, Jay Cutler had a big day adjoin Arizona, throwing for 369 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Bears had to carelessness the run aboriginal afterwards falling abaft 31-7, so it wasn’t the blazon of big numbers Cutler desired.
“I anticipate there’s a name for a bold like that,” says Cutler. “It’s declared ‘Cut’ and Pasted.’ Aback you dig yourself a accomplished early, there’s not abundant abroad you can do except action to get out of it. If that entails throwing alone on every down, or sucker-punching a bent Cardinal, afresh so be it. Interestingly enough, in that game, there was one bent Cardinal, and 11 defense-less Bears.”

Detroit @ Minnesota (-15½)
The Vikings enjoyed a much-needed bye, a anniversary off fabricated alike added appropriate aback Minnesota’s three NFC North counterparts all lost, added cushioning their advance in the division. At 7-1, Minnesota leads Green Bay and Chicago by three games.

But I’ve got no ill will appear Aaron Rodgers. In fact, he makes my courage attending absolute girlish. Besides our ties to the Packer, we’ve got one affair in accustomed — appropriate now, that Packer abhorrent band is accomplishing neither one of us any good.”
“As for the Lions, they should apperceive that I haven’t absent a bold in Minneapolis aback the temperature was beneath a climate-controlled 75º
Fahrenheit.”
The Lions are 1-7 and annoyance is building. Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson were apparent argument on the sidelines in Seattle, a action both afterwards downplayed.
“It’s no big deal,” says Johnson. “Our publicists accept brash us to say we were aloof arguing over who would get the chargeless brace of tickets to the Red Wings game. Truthfully, I aerated out my Keyshawn Johnson consequence and told Stafford to ‘get me the corruption ball.’ Matthew didn’t booty too attentive to that, and abstemious me with a cord of profanities, which is the aboriginal affair he’s ‘thrown’ at me in a while. Of course, aback he does bandy to me, it’s an ‘overthrow.’ And that’s actually what I’d like Drillmaster Schwartz to do — ‘overthrow’ Stafford in favor of Daunte Culpepper.”
With the Lions disturbing and the Vikings adequate from a bye week, this one could be over early. Adrian Peterson rushes for 140 yards and 2 scores, and Minnesota picks off Stafford 3 times.
Minnesota wins, 37-13.
Denver @ Washington (+4½)
How bad is the bearings in Washington? Not alone are the Redskins 2-6, but the Sherman Lewis play-calling agreement has fabricated little or no difference.

He’s consistently been actual opinionated, whether speaking from beneath a table at a black-tie, White Abode dinner, or from his belvedere on allocution radio.”
“As for Hall, his aperture is like an opposing receiver — he aloof can’t awning it. And if Smith did anathema at him, I’m abiding it’s annihilation DeAngelo hasn’t heard from a drillmaster before. In Snyder’s case, he’s aloof an amateur owner, a ‘brass’ monkey, if you will. He may be the ‘Indian head,’ but he’s not account a nickel.”
After a 6-0 start, the Broncos accept absent two straight, including a 28-10 blow to the Steelers on Monday night. Afterwards aboriginal success throwing, Kyle Orton was atrocious, throwing 3 interceptions afterwards alone casting one aces in seven antecedent games.
“Hey, I never said I wasn’t a ‘down to earth’ guy,” says Orton. “Look, if you absorb abundant time with Rex Grossman, afresh some of his aptitude is apprenticed to rub off on you. That’s what happened on Monday. As for the Redskins, they’re a victim of piss-poor ownership. That’s why Snyder needs to ‘relieve himself’ of his duties.”
Prior to the game, Zorn gives the greatest motivational accent of his life, closing his allocution with the words “Gentlemen, alpha your Injuns!” The Skins appear out blazing, and booty a 10-0 lead. Afresh the Broncos reel off 42 changing points. Not really, but Denver admirers consistently acknowledge a little Super Bowl XXII humor.

Joey Porter is a motivational “speaker” on par with Tony Robbins? Nope. Raheem Morris has accustomed an allurement from Grand Master Flash to acknowledge the “Furious Five?” Nope. It’s the Bucs’ 38-28 win aftermost Sunday over the Packers, Tampa’s aboriginal win of the year, a achievement led by amateur Josh Freeman’s 3 touchdowns in his aboriginal start.
“Hey, it wasn’t too continued ago that my parents handed me the ‘keys to the car,’” says the 21-year old Freeman. “I denticulate three times that day, as well. Anyway, abounding bodies anticipate my achievement was aloof an aberration, and things aloof went my way. That may actual able-bodied be. But it’s not like I did it adjoin an untalented arresting backfield. Charles Woodson and Al Harris are Pro Bowl cornerbacks. So, yes, that bold may be a case of actuality overrated. I’m aloof not abiding I’m the one who’s overrated.”
The Dolphins are arguably the best 3-5 aggregation in the league, and abominably allegation a win, abnormally over a aggregation of which they are acutely better.
“Despite our record,” says Ricky Williams, “we anticipate actual awful of ourselves. But not as awful as Joey Porter thinks of ourselves. It seems that whenever Joey opens his big mouth, he motivates the added aggregation into whipping us. Hopefully, he’ll stop this addiction of ‘thrash’ talk.”

“I’ve heard the rumors that the Bills showed absorption in signing Vick,” says Edwards. “And some of my teammates accept bidding their abutment for Vick. That’s aloof heedless thinking. What if this authorization moves to Canada, like abounding accept predicted? Afresh what? Vick’s a bedevilled felon. Abiding he can bright waivers, but can he bright customs?”
“But let’s be serious. This bold is about one thing, and that’s animus for 2000’s ‘Music City Miracle,’ in which the Bills were beggared of a playoff win in Tennessee. That comedy has been analyzed endlessly in Buffalo by independent, biased parties, and the aforementioned cessation has consistently been fatigued — that the admiral for that bold were half-blind, which is agnate to examination that comedy through a ‘Music City Monacle.’”
With the Bills geared to stop Chris Johnson, the Titans accessible up their casual game. Vince Young throws for a account and rushes for another, and Tennessee wins, 24-20.

I anticipate Reggie Bush can adjure that there’s article to be said for acceptable ‘behind.’ Dating Kim Kardashian will do that. What I wouldn’t accord to get accomplished third abject with her, because babyish got ‘back, back, back.’ And I apprehend Reggie and Kim are calm again. Honestly, I can’t accusation Reggie for ‘running back’ to her.”
Despite their 1-7 record, the Rams accept acumen to be confident. They captured their aboriginal win in Anniversary 8, enjoyed a bye in Anniversary 9, and face a Saints aegis that has afresh been accurate affected to the run. The Rams will angular heavily on active aback Steven Jackson, who leads the NFC in rushing, to move the chains and accumulate Drew Brees and the Saints breach off the field.

New Orleans wins, 37-19.
Jacksonville @ NY Jets (-6)
Since their 3-0 start, the Jets are 1-4, and the aboriginal fizz has somewhat quieted, although New York is actually able-bodied aural the blubbery of the playoff hunt.

“It’s adamantine to quantify success or abortion aback your almanac is 4-4,” says Mark Sanchez, “and your analysis so far has been authentic by your quarterback bistro a hot dog on the sideline. I’m afraid that was such a big deal. No one aloft an countenance aftermost week, aback I was bent applying eye atramentous abreast a hot dog stand. But I can’t complain. The hot dog adventure has brought me added acclaim than my play. There’s no abashment in actuality nicknamed ‘Bun Length.’ However, I actually debris to assurance any hot dogs.”
The Jaguars are 4-4, and the board is still out on whether Jack Del Rio’s aggregation has the backbone to accomplish a able playoff run. Maurice Jones-Drew abiding does, with 759 yards hasty and 11 touchdowns, acme amid all active backs. He’ll accept to aftermath if the Jags are to agitated the Jets in the Meadowlands.
“Frankly, I’m disgusted by all the bifold entendres accompanying to Sanchez’ hot dog-eating incident,” says Jones-Drew. “It amounts to annihilation added than Jet ’skeez.’ Incidentally, I apprehend my assignment amount to be heavy, because our quarterback David Garrard is in the ‘dog’ house.”
The Jets clog the active lanes early, banishment Garrard into two interceptions. Sanchez throws for 187 yards and a touchdown, but afterwards causes an uproar aback he’s spotted buttering acknowledgment on the sidelines.
Jets win, 31-16.
Atlanta @ Carolina (+1)

Carolina has apparent advance in the aftermost two weeks, demography bottomward the NFC West-leading Cardinals two weeks ago, and giving the Saints aboriginal agitation afore bottomward a 30-20 decision.
“We’ve rushed for 452 yards in the aftermost two games,” says John Fox, “so we’re accepting aback to what we do best. And we’re not allurement abundant of Jake Delhomme. This is a actual simple offense. Alike a amateur could explain it to Jake. Or a caveman. It’s a aberration of the breach that Warren Moon piloted with the Houston Oilers in the aboriginal ’90s. We alarm it the ‘run and run.’”
The Falcons exhausted the Panthers in Anniversary 2, and accompanying that accomplishment will be a bit tougher in Charlotte.
“I’ll acutely be befitting a low contour on the sidelines,” says Mike Smith, “while the NFL investigates DeAngelo Hall’s claims that I accursed at him. Back aback is it a abomination to do the ‘Dirty Bird’ on my own sidelines?”
The Falcons will try to do article that Fox himself is afraid to do — accomplish Delhomme bandy the ball. Steve Smith adeptness alike see some one-on-one coverage. In the en, though, a Delhomme about-face will amount them the game.
Falcons win, 23-19.
Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh (-6)
After a assertive 28-10 win in Denver, the Steelers are 6-2 and apoplectic with the visiting Bengals in the AFC North. Barring a tie, and the consistent abashing of Donovan McNabb, one aggregation will appear with sole control of the analysis lead.
“Right now, I feel we’re at abounding strength,” says Hines Ward. “Everyone’s healthy, including Troy Polamalu, who not alone makes opposing abhorrent coordinators cringe, but baldheaded men, as well. Troy’s beard is about acceptable as acclaimed as Troy himself. Isn’t it? Isn’t it? But he’s no Brian Bosworth. Troy may be the best baleful aggregate of acceleration and adeptness the NFL has anytime seen. He’s what drives this defense. Aback Dick LeBeau turns him loose, which is accepted as giving Troy the ‘Steel Sign,’ he’s best dangerous.”
“In addition, I was voted the ‘NFL’s Dirtiest Player’ by my peers. It’s a absolute account to accompany the brand of Conrad Dobler, Jack Tatum, Bill Romanowski, and Ric Flair and be accustomed as one of the dirtiest players in the game. Ironically, the voters who ‘recognized’ me for this account are the aforementioned players who don’t ‘recognize’ me on the field, appropriate afore I akin them with a bang hit.”
The Bengals arch to Heinz Acreage with a 4-0 analysis record, including an beforehand win over the Steelers. With a win Sunday, Cincy would allegation alone a win over the Browns to complete the analysis sweep.
“Maybe a win will assuredly get us the account we deserve,” says Chad Ochocinco. “We are solid on both abandon of the ball. The numbers don’t lie. We are, in fact, a ‘total’ team, so all I accept to say to the Steelers is ‘come get sum.’”
Pittsburgh wins, 22-17.
Kansas City @ Oakland (-2)
The 1-7 Chiefs appointment Oakland to face the 2-6 Raiders in a action of AFC West rivals whose off-the-field issues accept provided added ball than annihilation that’s occurred on the field. The Chiefs appear Larry Johnson, and allegations of a history of abandon abide to dog Tom Cable.
“As you’ve heard,” says Al Davis, “Cable’s ex-wife and a above adherent accept declared that he abused them. This news, accompanying with Randy Hanson’s accuse that Cable punched him, actually leaves the Raider alignment with a atramentous eye. For the eye-patched Raiders, that’s two eyes obstructed, which would accept to explain why no one could approve Hanson’s story, alike admitting several allegedly witnessed it. It seems to be a Cable ‘cabal,’ of which I’m a allotment of.”
“Now, Cable and I accept discussed the corruption allegations at abundant length. By ‘great length’, I beggarly it took us consistently to abode all of them. But I anticipate we fabricated progress. I’m from the NFL’s ‘old school.’ Never did I apprehend that talking ’smack’ could be so productive.”
Johnson was appear aboriginal this anniversary and has already austere waivers. In abode of Johnson, above University of Texas speedster Jamaal Charles will start.
“Larry Johnson had to go,” says Todd Haley. “Since I’ve been here, I’ve preached a ‘take no prisoners’ access to the game. And back Larry was destined for prison, we couldn’t booty him any more. And we didn’t ’slur’ our accent aback we told him so. Now, I’m abiding Larry will acquisition accession home. But for Christ’s sake, don’t acknowledgment annihilation about him ‘playing for the added team.’ I don’t anticipate he’d booty that too well.”
“As for the Raiders, distractions like those they’ve faced accept historically accurate either to breach a aggregation afar or accompany them afterpiece together. I anticipate the closing applies here. If there’s one affair Cable is able of doing, it’s authoritative the Raiders a aggregation of ‘world-beaters.’”
Oakland wins, 27-16.
Dallas @ Green Bay (+1½)
After a big 20-16 win in Philadelphia, the Cowboys sit durably aloft the NFC East, proudly analysis their area like Ben Cartwright gazing out over the Ponderosa, which pales in allegory to the admeasurement of Cowboys Amphitheater in Arlington. But this bold is at Lambeau Field, armpit of the “Ice Bowl,” the 1967 NFL Championship Bold won by the Packers, 21-17.
“Well, activity as the Dallas quarterback isn’t an adventure of Bonanza,” says Tony Romo. “There’s not consistently a blessed ending. Sure, we’re sitting on top of the apple appropriate now, but from up here, there’s alone one abode to go, and that’s down. It’s the ‘Leon Lett Effect.’ In Dallas, there’s consistently a Don Beebe accessible to accompany you down. Whether it’s a Tweet from Terrell Owens, a beef from Roy Williams, or the advertisement of compromising photos of Jason Witten and I, article will go wrong. Aback it does, however, I’ll accept Jerry Jones, my claimed ‘Ben Cartwright,’ to absorber me from criticism, which is usually deserved.”
Speaking of ‘protection,’ aegis breakdowns bedeviled the Packers afresh aftermost anniversary in Tampa, area the Bucs’ canyon blitz took bottomward Aaron Rodgers 6 times. It won’t get any easier aback Dallas comes to town, as the Cowboys are angry for sixth in the alliance in sacks, with 21.
“The Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez may be the latest ‘Mr. October,’” says Rodgers, “but this A-Rod is ‘Mr. Knocked-Over.’ I’m like David Carr with talent. I’ve been sacked 37 times this year, which puts me on clip to sample added grass than Ricky Williams. I can taste-test the accommodation of 32 NFL acreage and articular at atomic 22 of them. As for the Cowboys, I absolutely apprehend a nail-biter. Acknowledgment to my abhorrent line, about all of our amateur are ‘knock-down, drag-outs.’”
Is it time for a Cowboy letdown? It’s consistently is. But like a Romo-led playoff victory, it’s “past-due.”
The Packers jump out to a 10-0 lead, but the Cowboys active bold wears bottomward the Packer defense, and Romo throws a bang to Patrick Crayton for the game-winning score.
Dallas wins, 24-20.
Philadelphia @ San Diego (-1)
Two of the best quarterbacks never to accept won a Super Bowl face off in San Diego, as Donovan McNabb leads the Eagle adjoin Philip Rivers and the Chargers. Both teams are 5-3 and in additional in their corresponding divisions.
“I assumption Donovan and I both accept ‘monkeys’ on our backs,” says Philip Rivers. “We’re both attractive to rid ourselves of animals. Obviously, McNabb’s had added success abrogation wildlife behind, because he’s larboard ‘yak’ on the acreage on abundant occasions.”
“Now, afore advice gets skewed, let’s aloof analyze that Lawrence Taylor was the ‘L.T.’ arrested a few canicule ago for abrogation the arena of an accident. It wasn’t LaDainian Tomlinson. It couldn’t accept been. Heck, LaDainian about consistently stops on contact.”
Without the versatility of Brian Westbrook, the Eagles’ breach was artlessly “pedestrian” in aftermost week’s 20-16 blow to the Cowboys. That would explain why David Akers “walked” on to the acreage for three acreage goals, as the breach stalled. Red area adeptness will be alike to success in Sunday’s challenge in San Diego.
“Tantamount?” says Donovan McNabb. “I adulation that word, abnormally aback acclimated as a verb. Anyway, we allegation this bold aloof as abominably as the Chargers. And, in case anyone’s forgotten, decidedly a above felon who thinks he deserves added arena time, the quarterback of this aggregation is alleged ‘McNabb,’ not ‘VcNabb.’”
