Hey there friends. What a crazy 2008 season it has been. Our projected football kings are slumping (Indy, Dallas, SD, New Orleans) causing havoc and wreckage across standings and power rankings around the globe. The Dallas star is dropping like a rock (down 7 spots) while Green Bay took a giant step forward (up 8 spots). Let's get to it.
Rank - Team - Record - Previous - High - Low
Heavy Metal
#1 Tennessee Titans (6-0) - Last #1 - High #1 - Low #3
QB Kerry Collins is looking like the man to beat in Tennessee. Solid play week in and week out is more than enough for this team to keep winning, especially with the top ranked defense behind him. That defense shattered the KC QBs, causing them to play 3 QBs in the game. Divisional game against Indy is up next. Week 8 IND
#2 Pittsburgh Steelers (5-1) Last #2 - High #2 - Low #5
Big Ben was solid for 216 yds and 2 scores in putting the hammer down on the Bengals, but it was RB Mewelde Moore who stole the show by running for 120 yds and 3 scores (2 rushing and 1 receiving) He averaged 6 yds per carry in dismantling the Bengal defense. Next week's clash of the titans will be one to watch. Week 8 NYG
#3 New York Giants (5-1) Last #4 - High #1 - Low #4
The G-Men bounce back after that horrible lost to Cleveland. A win is a win, but what an ugly win against a struggling 49ner team. Eli was good or 161 yds and 1 score while leading rusher RB Brandon Jacobs rams in 2 more with only 69 yds on the ground. The Giants are going to get back to early season form if they are to stand a chance at Pittsburgh. Week 8 @ PIT
#4 Buffalo Bills (5-1) Last #6 - High #4 - Low #10
QB Trent Edwards returns and instantly made this team a contender. They kept the Bolts in check with their defense with the man of the hour being LB Kawika Mitchell, who not only had a key interception in the 4th qtr but also had a fumble recovery. Divisional foe, Miami, will need to get that wild cat ready since the Bills seem to have a strong grip on the AFC East. Week 8 @ MIA
#5 Carolina Panthers (5-2) Last #8 - High #5 - Low #8
The Carolina defense came to play against the Saints after taking last week off. So much so that they limited the mighty NO QB Brees to only 7 points all the while knocking out their RB Reggie Bush for approx. 4 Weeks. Kurt Warner, you've been warned. Week 8 ARI
#6 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-2) Last #3 - High #3 - Low #9
No room for error in the tough NFC East so the Bucs made sure they put the beat down on the Seahawks to stay tied with the Panthers for the top spot. QB Jeff Garcia throws for 310 yds and a score. The Seahawk defense did not have an answer for WR Antonio Bryant who torched the secondary for 116 yds and a score, the first of the season for him. This show goes on the road against a dysfunctional Dallas squad. Week 8 @ DAL
#7 Washington Redskins (5-2) Last #9 - High #2 - Low #9
The Skins almost let another one slip away against a rejuvenated Cleveland defense. RB Clinton Portis wasn't having it, willing his team to victory with 175 yds and a score. The man is averaging 5 yds a carry for the season and is on pace to rush for over 1500 yds this season. He looks to continue his 100 yard rushing game (4 straight) against a weak Detroit defense. Week 8 @ DET
#8 Atlanta Falcons (4-2) Last #5 - High #5 - Low #15
Sitting on the sidelines this week knocked the Falcons from first to third in their division race. After showing poise and resolve against Green Bay in week 6, they look to match that intensity against a struggling Eagles team. Week 8 @ PHI
#9 Arizona Cardinals (4-2) Last #7 - High #7 - Low #14
Kurt Warner and crew rested their bones, as well as that high powered offense this week. The Cards are averaging almost 30 a game this year. WR Anquan Boldin will most likely be sitting this game out, since it's been announced that he suffered a concussion and multiple facial fractures. Will the week off slow down this high flying offense? The Carolina defense won't make it any easier. Week 8 @ CAR
#10 Chicago Bears (4-3) Last #15 - High #8 - Low #15
The Bears won a shootout! Let that phrase sink in folks. The Bears, the smash mouth team that will ram it down your throat has developed offensive fire power. Anyone that is still shouting for Rex's return should be shot. QB Kyle Orton has taken the reigns out gunned Viking QB Gus Frerotte in a clash of divisional foes. This offense coupled with that defense is making this Bears team look scary. If only they can keep it consistent. Hopefully, the BYE week won't screw it up. Week 8 BYE
Soft Rocks
#11 Jacksonville Jaguars (3-3) Last #14 - High #11 - Low #22
The Jags stock rose this week despite them sitting on the sidelines. Mainly because their divisional rival Colts lost. The team needs to find their identity if they are to make a push for the playoffs. Being 3 games behind the Titans, they need to surge now if they hope to make the playoffs. Week 8 CLE
#12 Green Bay Packers (4-3) Last #20 - High #12 - Low #20
QB Aaron Rodgers one ups Indy QB Peyton Manning by scoring a TD. The Green Bay defense showed up picking off Manning twice and running them both back for TDs. The ailing team needs the BYE to regenerate some of that mojo that they lost from that 3 game losing streak. Week 8 BYE
#13 Philadelphia Eagles (4-3) Last #18 - High #13 - Low #18
QB McNabb and company did what they had to do, put the beat down on an inferior team. If only they can take it up a notch and take down some superior teams for a change since they are the bottom dwellers of the NFC East. Week 8 ATL
#14 Baltimore Ravens (3-3) Last #20 - High #14 - Low #20
Is this defense getting old? They gave up over 100 yards on the ground, no INTs, only 1 forced fumble, but it did have 3 sacks and this old dog took care of that wild cat, stuffing the Dolphins whenever they got into that wild cat formation. Week 8 OAK
#15 Indianapolis Colts (3-3) Last #10 - High #10 - Low 15
What the hell is wrong with the Colts? QB Peyton Manning looks briliant last week in dismantling the Raven D and now looks like a lame duck against an ailing Green Bay team. Week 8 @ TEN
#16 New England Patriots (4-2) Last #22 - High #11 - Low #22
QB Matt Cassel has one efficient game against that dead ugly Denver defense, tossing 3 TDs and 185 yds. The New England RBs combined for 257 yds rushing, with RB Sammy Norris leading the way with 138 yds. Week 8 STL
#17 Denver Broncos (4-3) Last #12 - High #7 - Low #17
This Denver defense is going to sink this team. Not even the legendary John Elway can lead this team to victory when the defense coughs up big plays on a consistent basis. Week 8 BYE
#18 Dallas Cowboys (4-3) Last #11 - High #4 - Low #18
How much farther will this star fall? Coach has acknowledged that it's time to "worry". Not a smart move. Defense is now suspect and without QB Romo to save thier ass, there's going to be a lot of hurting in Dallas. Week 8TB
#19 New Orleans Saints (3-4) Last #17 - High #17 - Low #23
QB Brees torched the Raiders last week and what does he do this week against the Panthers? Nothing, absolutely nothing. And to make matters worse, RB Reggie Bush may be out up to 4 weeks due to injury. Best of luck trying to stay afloat in that tough NFC South. Week 8 SD
#20 New York Jets (3-3) Last #13 - High #13 - Low #20
Awful, awful game for the legend QB Brett Favre. He was only able to muster 197 yds and threw 2 picks against a more than suspect Oakland defense. I'm certain he'll take it out on Chiefs next week. Week 8 KC
#21 San Diego Chargers (3-4) Last #16 - High #16 - Low #21
RB LaDainian Tomlinson is not having his best season, and the Bolt's record reflects that. Whether he's up for the challenge or not, the Bolts win or lose on LaDainian's play. Week 8 @ NO
Pile of Crap
#22 Minnesota Vikings (3-4) Last #19 - High #13 - Low #21
QB Gus Frerotte's 4 INTs killed the Vikings. In a shootout that ended at 41-48, his 4 turnovers turned into points for the Bears. Week 8 BYE
#23 Houston Texans (2-4) Last #25 - High #23 - Low #29
Second win in a row for the fiesty Texans. QB Matt Schaub looks solid throwing for 2 scores and 267 yds against Detroit. Can they make it 3 in a row against the Bengals? Week 8 CIN
#24 St. Louis Rams (2-4) Last #29 - High #24 - Low #30
Whoa, whoa... what is this? The Rams are looking like a solid team after spending the first quarter of the season as a stepping mat for the opposition. Convincing win against Dallas behind the strong play of RB Steven Jackson, who ran for 160 yds and 3 TDs. Week 8 NE
#25 Oakland Raiders (2-4) Last #30 - High #25 - Low #30
K Sebastian Janikowski nails a 57 yarder to crush the Jets in overtime. 100 Raider greats were in attendance for the game, defenitely inspiring the Oakland team to "Just Win Baby". Al Davis should look into flying all those Raider greats to Baltimore, where the Raider team will need all the help they can get. Week 8 @ BAL
#26 Cleveland Browns (2-4) Last #23 - High #23 - Low #27
What happened? Solid play from the Browns almost got the victory against Washington. Despite coughing up 175 yds to Washington RB Clinton Portis, the Browns had their chances but merely blew it. Week 8 @ JAC
#27 Miami Dolphins (2-4) Last #24 - High #17 - Low #27
Welcome to the NFL. Each time the attempting the wild cat formation, the Baltimore defense stuffed it down their throat. Back to the drawing board, guys. Week 8 BUF
#28 Kansas City Chiefs (1-5) Last #26 - High #26 - Low #28
Calling Daunte Culpepper, come in Culpepper. Kansas has no QB and you have no job. What the hell are the Chiefs waiting for??? Week 8 @ NYJ
#29 San Francisco 49ners (2-5) Last #27 - High #24 - Low #29
Nolan out, Singletary in. Maybe he'll be able to spark a fire under this team and whip 'em into shape. Week 8 SEA
#30 Seattle Seahawks (1-5) Last #28 - High #25 - Low #30
Tough times have fallen on the Seahawks. I think coach Mike Holmgren will be calling it quits after the season is over. Come to think of it, I think he already is on vacation.... Week 8 SF
#31 Cincinnati Bengals (0-7) Last #32 - High #31 - Low #32
Injuries, injuries, injuries... Should QB Carson Palmer even come back on this lost season??? Week 8 @ HOU
#32 Detroit Lions (0-6) Last #31 - High #32 - Low #32
Lions couldn't get it done against the Vikings, and let another one slip away this week against the Texans. I just don't see this team winning a game this season. WEEK 8 WAS

Metallman's Heavy Metal Rankings (NFL - Week 6)
Hey there friends. What a week in the NFL! Much is still to be decided in conference standings. Many of the teams that we figured would rule their divisions are floundering or just ready to submerge from the depths of mediocrity. New England is the biggest loser this week, dropping 12 spots while the Falcons soar with a 10 spot jump. Let's get to it.
Rank - Team - Record - Previous - High - Low
Heavy Metal
#1 Tennessee Titans (5-0) - Last #3 - High #1 - Low#3
The Titans looked strong against a tough Baltimore defense and their BYE week served the team well. Leading the AFC South standings by 2 games, the Titans travel to KC this week, looking to avoid falling into a trap game with the Chiefs. Rumors are swirling that KC may trade their star TE Tony Gonzalez. With or without Gonzalez, Titans should steamroll over the Chiefs. Week 7 @ KC
#2 Pittsburgh Steelers (4-1) - Last #5 - High #2 - Low #5
Big Ben benefited the most this BYE week, resting his aching body. The Steelers are winning games with their defense, ranking in the top 4 in the major defensive rankings. The offensive line has not given Ben the chance to get this offense going. The offense ranks in the bottom third of the NFL. They look to improve those numbers against a win less Cincy team. Week 7 @ CIN
#3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-2) Last #9 - High #3 - Low#9
With QB Jeff Garcia at the helm (QB Brian Griese has a bum elbow), the Bucs showed an impressive running game, stampeding all over the Carolina defense. RB Warrick Dunn ran for 115 yards on 22 carries, while QB Garcia completed 75% of his passes (15/20 for 173 yds and 1 TD) . The Bucs came out with an early 14 point lead and never looked back. Bucs coach, Jon Gruden, has announced that QB Griese will be his starter against the Seahawks this week. Week 7 SEA
#4 New York Giants (4-1) - Last #1 - High #1 - Low #4
Eli Manning and crew struggled early against the Browns, entering half time down 17-14, and the troubles continued through the rest of the game, handing the Giants thier first loss of the season. Eli Manning, looking to score, tosses another INT (3 total) in the 4th qtr, which is returned 94 yards to put the nail in the coffin. Week 7 SF
#5 Atlanta Falcons (4-2) Last #15 - High #5 - Low #15
The Falcons are showing the NFL that they mean business. They posted an impressive win against an Aaron Rodgers led Green Bay team and now, they defeat a strong defense in Chicago. K Jason Elam had missed a 33 yard kick that would have given them the lead. Instead, it turned to a TD for the Bears on the following drive, leaving 11 secs in the game. After a squibb kick, Atlanta has a fighting chance, starting at their 44 yard line. Showing some fight, QB Matt Ryan hits WR Micheal Jenkins for a 26 yd catch, leaving 1 sec in the game. K Jason Elam comes out and redeems himself by kicking a 48 yarder winning the game. Week 7 BYE
# 6 Buffalo Bills (4-1) Last #10 - High #6 - Low #10
The Bills expect their starting QB Trent Edwards to return to the line up this week against a surging San Diego team. Sitting atop the AFC East, nothing is in stone considering that the Jets look to make a move while the Pats and Dolphins are still looking for an identity. Week 7 SD
#7 Arizona Cardinals (4-2) Last #14 - High #7 - Low #14
The high flying offense of QB Kurt Warner hosted Dallas and showed some fight against America's team. Despite the running game being non existent, the Cardinals won this game on defense, forcing 3 fumbles and limiting Dallas WR Terrell Owens to only 4 catches. After a bogus call against the Cards, Dallas scored 3 in the final seconds to go into over time. After stopping Dallas, the Arizona special teams unit comes up big blocking the punt attempt and scoring the TD, earning the Cards a big W against Dallas. Cardinals look playoff bound in the weak NFC West. Week 7 BYE
#8 Carolina Panthers (4-2) Last #6 - High #6 - Low #8
What happened to that Carolina defense that posted a donut against the Chiefs? QB Jake Delhomme, having one of his worst games ever, tosses 3 INTs, limiting the time the offense was on the field. When he wasn't throwing INTs, he was over throwing his receivers, and when the ball did hit the receivers, the receivers simply dropped the ball. The football gods must have been frowning on the Panthers because what could have gone wrong, did. They better hope they get their act together because the Saints are marching in. Week 7 NO
#9 Washington Redskins (4-2) Last #2 - High #2 - Low #9
Washington fell victim to playing down to their competition. After showing strong wins against Philly and Dallas, the pesky Rams put a damper on their parade, losing the game on the final play of the game. The Skins didn't help their cause, fumbling the ball away on three occasions. The bright spot? RB Clinton Portis' streak of 100 yard games continues with this being his third. Week 7 CLE
#10 Indianapolis Colts (3-2) Last #12 - High #10 - Low #12
QB Peyton Manning came alive against a stingy Baltimore defense, shredding them for 271 yards and 3 scores. 2 of those TD passes came to the dormant WR Marvin Harrison. The Indy defense did their best impersonation of the Baltimore defense, forcing Baltimore QB Joe Flacco to toss 3 INTs, and creating 4 fumbles, 3 of which the Indy defense recovered. Week 7 @ GB
Soft Rocks
#11 Dallas Cowboys (4-2) Last #4 - High #4 - Low #11
The Dallas star is falling and it's falling fast. The 'Boys had many chances (some would argue that it was with the help of the refs) to put the Cards away and they just couldn't do it. Despite QB Romo having great passing numbers (321 yds, 2 TDs) he fumbled 3 times losing 1 to the Cards. To make matters worse, QB Romo is out for 4 weeks with a broken pinky finger. Week 7 @ STL
#12 Denver Broncos (4-2) Last #7 - High #7 - Low #12
Turnovers killed the Broncos. 2costly fumbles and an INT was all it took to assure that the Broncos would not come back against the Jags. JAGS RB Jones-Drew ran all over the Denver defense cutting them up for 125 yards and 2 scores. A game at New England may be what the doctor ordered to get them back on track. WR receiver Brandon Stokely may be out since he suffered a concussion during the game. Week 7 @ NE
#13 New York Jets (3-2) Last #21 - High #13 - Low #21
Brett Favre is looking more and more comfortable in the Jets offense. Despite having a sub-par game (189 yds, 1 TD, 2 INTs), RB Thomas Jones scores 3 TDs (2 rushing TDs and 1 receiving TD) to pull out the victory over the win less Bengals. Week 7 @ OAK
#14 Jacksonville Jaguars (3-3) Last #22 - High #14 - Low #21
Solid play by QB David Garrard (276 yds, 1 TD) and a strong running game by RB Maurice Jones-Drew (125 yds, 2 TDs) kept the Broncos at bay, keeping them on pace in the tough to determine AFC South. Week 7 CLE
#15 Chicago Bears (3-3) Last #8 - High #8 - Low #15
The Bears defense had the worst 11 seconds of the season. The game seemed done after QB Kyle Orton tosses a TD to WR Rashied Davis with 11 seconds left in the game. After an awful kick and a deep pass, Atlanta was in prime position to take this game from the sleeping Bears. Week 7 MIN
#16 San Diego Chargers (3-3) Last #16 - High #16 - Low #16
The Bolts put away a hapless New England team. On the brink of mediocrity, QB Philip Rivers tosses for 306 yards and 3 TDs. RB LaDainian Tomlinson is yet to break for the big one, but he's nearly there, rushing for 74 yards and receiving 44 yards more. Week @ BUF
#17 New Orleans Saints (3-3) Last #23 - High #17 - Low #23
QB Drew Brees completes 87% of his passes (26/30 for 320 yds and 3 TDs) against an atrocious Oakland defense. QB Brees completes 16 consecutive passes before one finally hits the field. RB Reggie Bush is good for 2 TDs (1 on the ground and 1 in the air) to handily put the beat down on the Raiders. Week 7 @ CAR
#18 Philadelphia Eagles (3-3) Last #18 - High #18 - Low #18
The Eagles fought back to .500 with a win over the struggling 49ners. With the 49ners leading 26 to 17 after 3 qtrs, QB Donovan McNabb leads the eagles to 23 4th qtr points to put the 49ners in their place. Week 7 BYE
#19 Minnesota Vikings (3-3) Last #13 - High #13 - Low #19
Fumbles were the name of the game, with RB Adrian Peterson coughing it up twice (111 yds rushing). If not for an incompetent Detroit QB Dan Orlovsky running out of his own end zone, causing a safety, this game could have very well been decided on the overtime coin flip. Week 7 @ CHI
#20 Green Bay Packers (3-3) Last #19 - High #19 - Low #20
QB Aaron Rodgers tosses for 208 yds and 2 TDs against the Seahawks, to keep them in a three way tie in the mediocre NFC North. Week 7 IND
#21 Baltimore Ravens (2-3) Last #20 - High #20 - Low #21
This Baltimore defense is barely keeping this team out of my Pile of Crap section. Their defensive stats took a huge hit from the Indy offense. Look for them to take out their frustrations against the Dolphins. Week 7 @ MIA
Pile of Crap
#22 New England Patriots (3-2) Last #11 - High #11 - Low #22
The team took a huge hit with that dismal showing against the San Diego Chargers. After looking to be alright after QB Tom Brady's injury, QB Matt Cassel is struggling to keep this ship afloat. Week 7 DEN
#23 Cleveland Browns (2-3) Last #27 - High #23 - Low #27
QB Derek Anderson and WR Braylon Edwards hooked up 5 times for 154 yds and a score to pull the upset against the top ranked Giants. The defense came up big, scoring a TD on 1 of Giants QB Eli Manning's 3 INTs. Week 7 @ WAS
#24 Miami Dolphins (2-3) Last #17 - High #17 - Low #24
The Wild Cats, I mean Dolphins, almost came up with another big win. The Dolphins are now 2 games behind the division leading Bills. Week 7 BAL
#25 Houston Texans (1-4) Last #29 - High #25 - Low #29
Ring leader QB Matt Schaub runs it in with 3 secs left in the game to lift the Texans over the Dolphins, showing QB Rosenfels how it's done. Week 7 DET
#26 Kansas City Chiefs (1-4) Last #28 - High #26 - Low #28
There's rumors flying that star TE Tony Gonzalez may be traded. Gonzalez may be a Giant before the night is over. Week 7 TEN
#27 San Francisco 49ners (2-4) Last #24 - High #24 - Low #27
After staying on top of the Eagles for 3 qtrs, the 49ner team decided to call it a night and decided not to play defense or offense in the 4th qtr, allowing 25 unanswered points. Week 7 @ NYG
#28 Seattle Seahawks (1-4) Last #25 - High #25 - Low #28
QB Charlie Frye tosses a dismal 83 yds, 2 TDs, and 2 INTs against the Packers. You can't win the game if your top receiver only had 23 yards. Week 7@ TB
#29 St. Louis Rams (1-4) Last #30 - High #29 - Low #30
Good start to the Jim Haslett era by getting a big win against a good Washington team. K Josh Brown hits a 49 yarder in the final seconds of the game to put the Rams in the win column. Week 7 DAL
#30 Oakland Raiders (1-4) Last #26 - High #26 - Low #30
The Oakland defense took a monstrous step back by taking a siesta during the game against New Orleans. Defensive coach Rob Ryan better get that defense on the same page or he'll soon find himself right next to Lane Kiffin, in the unemployment line. Week 7 NYJ
#31 Detroit Lions (0-5) Last #32 - High #31 - Low #32
Detroit let a golden opportunity pass by when the Vikings decided to take the day off. Week 7 @ HOU
#32 Cincinnati Bengals (0-5) Last #31 - High #31 - Low #32
Benching QB Carson Palmer may bite this team in the ass if he doesn't come back to form after resting for 2 weeks. Week 7 PIT
Rank - Team - Record - Previous - High - Low
Heavy Metal
#1 Tennessee Titans (5-0) - Last #3 - High #1 - Low#3
The Titans looked strong against a tough Baltimore defense and their BYE week served the team well. Leading the AFC South standings by 2 games, the Titans travel to KC this week, looking to avoid falling into a trap game with the Chiefs. Rumors are swirling that KC may trade their star TE Tony Gonzalez. With or without Gonzalez, Titans should steamroll over the Chiefs. Week 7 @ KC
#2 Pittsburgh Steelers (4-1) - Last #5 - High #2 - Low #5
Big Ben benefited the most this BYE week, resting his aching body. The Steelers are winning games with their defense, ranking in the top 4 in the major defensive rankings. The offensive line has not given Ben the chance to get this offense going. The offense ranks in the bottom third of the NFL. They look to improve those numbers against a win less Cincy team. Week 7 @ CIN
#3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-2) Last #9 - High #3 - Low#9
With QB Jeff Garcia at the helm (QB Brian Griese has a bum elbow), the Bucs showed an impressive running game, stampeding all over the Carolina defense. RB Warrick Dunn ran for 115 yards on 22 carries, while QB Garcia completed 75% of his passes (15/20 for 173 yds and 1 TD) . The Bucs came out with an early 14 point lead and never looked back. Bucs coach, Jon Gruden, has announced that QB Griese will be his starter against the Seahawks this week. Week 7 SEA
#4 New York Giants (4-1) - Last #1 - High #1 - Low #4
Eli Manning and crew struggled early against the Browns, entering half time down 17-14, and the troubles continued through the rest of the game, handing the Giants thier first loss of the season. Eli Manning, looking to score, tosses another INT (3 total) in the 4th qtr, which is returned 94 yards to put the nail in the coffin. Week 7 SF
#5 Atlanta Falcons (4-2) Last #15 - High #5 - Low #15
The Falcons are showing the NFL that they mean business. They posted an impressive win against an Aaron Rodgers led Green Bay team and now, they defeat a strong defense in Chicago. K Jason Elam had missed a 33 yard kick that would have given them the lead. Instead, it turned to a TD for the Bears on the following drive, leaving 11 secs in the game. After a squibb kick, Atlanta has a fighting chance, starting at their 44 yard line. Showing some fight, QB Matt Ryan hits WR Micheal Jenkins for a 26 yd catch, leaving 1 sec in the game. K Jason Elam comes out and redeems himself by kicking a 48 yarder winning the game. Week 7 BYE
# 6 Buffalo Bills (4-1) Last #10 - High #6 - Low #10
The Bills expect their starting QB Trent Edwards to return to the line up this week against a surging San Diego team. Sitting atop the AFC East, nothing is in stone considering that the Jets look to make a move while the Pats and Dolphins are still looking for an identity. Week 7 SD
#7 Arizona Cardinals (4-2) Last #14 - High #7 - Low #14
The high flying offense of QB Kurt Warner hosted Dallas and showed some fight against America's team. Despite the running game being non existent, the Cardinals won this game on defense, forcing 3 fumbles and limiting Dallas WR Terrell Owens to only 4 catches. After a bogus call against the Cards, Dallas scored 3 in the final seconds to go into over time. After stopping Dallas, the Arizona special teams unit comes up big blocking the punt attempt and scoring the TD, earning the Cards a big W against Dallas. Cardinals look playoff bound in the weak NFC West. Week 7 BYE
#8 Carolina Panthers (4-2) Last #6 - High #6 - Low #8
What happened to that Carolina defense that posted a donut against the Chiefs? QB Jake Delhomme, having one of his worst games ever, tosses 3 INTs, limiting the time the offense was on the field. When he wasn't throwing INTs, he was over throwing his receivers, and when the ball did hit the receivers, the receivers simply dropped the ball. The football gods must have been frowning on the Panthers because what could have gone wrong, did. They better hope they get their act together because the Saints are marching in. Week 7 NO
#9 Washington Redskins (4-2) Last #2 - High #2 - Low #9
Washington fell victim to playing down to their competition. After showing strong wins against Philly and Dallas, the pesky Rams put a damper on their parade, losing the game on the final play of the game. The Skins didn't help their cause, fumbling the ball away on three occasions. The bright spot? RB Clinton Portis' streak of 100 yard games continues with this being his third. Week 7 CLE
#10 Indianapolis Colts (3-2) Last #12 - High #10 - Low #12
QB Peyton Manning came alive against a stingy Baltimore defense, shredding them for 271 yards and 3 scores. 2 of those TD passes came to the dormant WR Marvin Harrison. The Indy defense did their best impersonation of the Baltimore defense, forcing Baltimore QB Joe Flacco to toss 3 INTs, and creating 4 fumbles, 3 of which the Indy defense recovered. Week 7 @ GB
Soft Rocks
#11 Dallas Cowboys (4-2) Last #4 - High #4 - Low #11
The Dallas star is falling and it's falling fast. The 'Boys had many chances (some would argue that it was with the help of the refs) to put the Cards away and they just couldn't do it. Despite QB Romo having great passing numbers (321 yds, 2 TDs) he fumbled 3 times losing 1 to the Cards. To make matters worse, QB Romo is out for 4 weeks with a broken pinky finger. Week 7 @ STL
#12 Denver Broncos (4-2) Last #7 - High #7 - Low #12
Turnovers killed the Broncos. 2costly fumbles and an INT was all it took to assure that the Broncos would not come back against the Jags. JAGS RB Jones-Drew ran all over the Denver defense cutting them up for 125 yards and 2 scores. A game at New England may be what the doctor ordered to get them back on track. WR receiver Brandon Stokely may be out since he suffered a concussion during the game. Week 7 @ NE
#13 New York Jets (3-2) Last #21 - High #13 - Low #21
Brett Favre is looking more and more comfortable in the Jets offense. Despite having a sub-par game (189 yds, 1 TD, 2 INTs), RB Thomas Jones scores 3 TDs (2 rushing TDs and 1 receiving TD) to pull out the victory over the win less Bengals. Week 7 @ OAK
#14 Jacksonville Jaguars (3-3) Last #22 - High #14 - Low #21
Solid play by QB David Garrard (276 yds, 1 TD) and a strong running game by RB Maurice Jones-Drew (125 yds, 2 TDs) kept the Broncos at bay, keeping them on pace in the tough to determine AFC South. Week 7 CLE
#15 Chicago Bears (3-3) Last #8 - High #8 - Low #15
The Bears defense had the worst 11 seconds of the season. The game seemed done after QB Kyle Orton tosses a TD to WR Rashied Davis with 11 seconds left in the game. After an awful kick and a deep pass, Atlanta was in prime position to take this game from the sleeping Bears. Week 7 MIN
#16 San Diego Chargers (3-3) Last #16 - High #16 - Low #16
The Bolts put away a hapless New England team. On the brink of mediocrity, QB Philip Rivers tosses for 306 yards and 3 TDs. RB LaDainian Tomlinson is yet to break for the big one, but he's nearly there, rushing for 74 yards and receiving 44 yards more. Week @ BUF
#17 New Orleans Saints (3-3) Last #23 - High #17 - Low #23
QB Drew Brees completes 87% of his passes (26/30 for 320 yds and 3 TDs) against an atrocious Oakland defense. QB Brees completes 16 consecutive passes before one finally hits the field. RB Reggie Bush is good for 2 TDs (1 on the ground and 1 in the air) to handily put the beat down on the Raiders. Week 7 @ CAR
#18 Philadelphia Eagles (3-3) Last #18 - High #18 - Low #18
The Eagles fought back to .500 with a win over the struggling 49ners. With the 49ners leading 26 to 17 after 3 qtrs, QB Donovan McNabb leads the eagles to 23 4th qtr points to put the 49ners in their place. Week 7 BYE
#19 Minnesota Vikings (3-3) Last #13 - High #13 - Low #19
Fumbles were the name of the game, with RB Adrian Peterson coughing it up twice (111 yds rushing). If not for an incompetent Detroit QB Dan Orlovsky running out of his own end zone, causing a safety, this game could have very well been decided on the overtime coin flip. Week 7 @ CHI
#20 Green Bay Packers (3-3) Last #19 - High #19 - Low #20
QB Aaron Rodgers tosses for 208 yds and 2 TDs against the Seahawks, to keep them in a three way tie in the mediocre NFC North. Week 7 IND
#21 Baltimore Ravens (2-3) Last #20 - High #20 - Low #21
This Baltimore defense is barely keeping this team out of my Pile of Crap section. Their defensive stats took a huge hit from the Indy offense. Look for them to take out their frustrations against the Dolphins. Week 7 @ MIA
Pile of Crap
#22 New England Patriots (3-2) Last #11 - High #11 - Low #22
The team took a huge hit with that dismal showing against the San Diego Chargers. After looking to be alright after QB Tom Brady's injury, QB Matt Cassel is struggling to keep this ship afloat. Week 7 DEN
#23 Cleveland Browns (2-3) Last #27 - High #23 - Low #27
QB Derek Anderson and WR Braylon Edwards hooked up 5 times for 154 yds and a score to pull the upset against the top ranked Giants. The defense came up big, scoring a TD on 1 of Giants QB Eli Manning's 3 INTs. Week 7 @ WAS
#24 Miami Dolphins (2-3) Last #17 - High #17 - Low #24
The Wild Cats, I mean Dolphins, almost came up with another big win. The Dolphins are now 2 games behind the division leading Bills. Week 7 BAL
#25 Houston Texans (1-4) Last #29 - High #25 - Low #29
Ring leader QB Matt Schaub runs it in with 3 secs left in the game to lift the Texans over the Dolphins, showing QB Rosenfels how it's done. Week 7 DET
#26 Kansas City Chiefs (1-4) Last #28 - High #26 - Low #28
There's rumors flying that star TE Tony Gonzalez may be traded. Gonzalez may be a Giant before the night is over. Week 7 TEN
#27 San Francisco 49ners (2-4) Last #24 - High #24 - Low #27
After staying on top of the Eagles for 3 qtrs, the 49ner team decided to call it a night and decided not to play defense or offense in the 4th qtr, allowing 25 unanswered points. Week 7 @ NYG
#28 Seattle Seahawks (1-4) Last #25 - High #25 - Low #28
QB Charlie Frye tosses a dismal 83 yds, 2 TDs, and 2 INTs against the Packers. You can't win the game if your top receiver only had 23 yards. Week 7@ TB
#29 St. Louis Rams (1-4) Last #30 - High #29 - Low #30
Good start to the Jim Haslett era by getting a big win against a good Washington team. K Josh Brown hits a 49 yarder in the final seconds of the game to put the Rams in the win column. Week 7 DAL
#30 Oakland Raiders (1-4) Last #26 - High #26 - Low #30
The Oakland defense took a monstrous step back by taking a siesta during the game against New Orleans. Defensive coach Rob Ryan better get that defense on the same page or he'll soon find himself right next to Lane Kiffin, in the unemployment line. Week 7 NYJ
#31 Detroit Lions (0-5) Last #32 - High #31 - Low #32
Detroit let a golden opportunity pass by when the Vikings decided to take the day off. Week 7 @ HOU
#32 Cincinnati Bengals (0-5) Last #31 - High #31 - Low #32
Benching QB Carson Palmer may bite this team in the ass if he doesn't come back to form after resting for 2 weeks. Week 7 PIT
