Looks like the Titans have picked Moss up

from here we'll either make a strong playoff run, or implode and get better draft picks! win win!

Moss is bad news... but without Kenny Britt the titans need a deep threat. Might work out ok
Fisher is a stern disaplinary

dont expect him to do anything underneith. Go routes and 9 routes are all he'll do, if you call anything else, he's throwing his hands up and going deep anyways... that or just giving up on the play

[PrimetimeRaider]

Chargers win again!!! Without Floyd, Gates, Nanaee, Jackson, Matthews...if we hadnt fumbled away a couple of games, Rivers would be the MVP favourite

4-5, with Denver twice, and Chiefs, Raiders, 49ers, at home. There's still hope!

[-GD-]

Raiders with a 23-20 win in OT over the Chiefs

[Captain Punish]

The Browns made the Pats look ordinary...

Hopefully lift for the Steelers..

[Nick]

eagle nation baby

payten and the banged up colts are absolute no match for Super Vick

[Nick]

Hey Nick, the Raiders will take Vick. Cheers mate

1st rounder and conditional 3rd or 2nd in 2012, and he's yours

i retract this statement
Superman stays in Philli, you can have Kolb

Vick, 20/28 - 330 yards, 4 TD's, 80 yards - 2 TD's rushing
The most dominate game from a QB in decades... he opened the game up with an 88 yard BOMB to DeSean Jackson. Man this guy is good... we could be champions with him at thew helm

Vikings sack Childress but Favre remains untouchable. Looks like one man has become bigger than the team.

You act like your surprised

Farve has always been bigger than the team at the Vikings.
He's **** hopeless now anyways... Mike Mayock of the NFLN is a guy i love listening too, he has a great football mind, astute judge of talent but mostly he's level headed and always looks at things in a light of continuous evaluation of the organisation and its roster, he is always measured in his reactions and never over-reacts, he cant find any reason why the vikings shouldn't now be seeing what they've got in Travaris Jackson and its hard to argue against it

Farves streak is more important than evaluation of Jackson as a long term QB. Absurd

5-5 now...not confident about this week @Indianapolis, but hopefully smooth sailing from there. 10-6 is a possibility. Need the Chiefs to lose some though please

[Danster]

Was lucky enough to score some media tickets through the team owner to the Chargers' trial match vs Dallas Cowboys a few months ago to mark my first live NFL match.

Sell out crowd, tailgate parties, military tribute, fireworks, unbelievable facilities (though Qualcomm is a dated stadium). Atmosphere was electric, crowd deafening and the whole experience - EPIC!

Dont stress mate, the colts aint what they used to be
the chargers are warming to the task, will be a **** awesome game to watch, im tempted to take a sickie tomorrow as One HD has the Eagles at 8:15 and then the Chargers v Colts at Midday, which would be fantastic viewing all day long.

Chargers by 10.

The Raiders have to beat Miami tomorrow to have any chance of clinching the division.

Tough run home and this is a must win.

No chance!!!

They'll win tomorrow because Tyler Thigpen is pretty **** useless (unless i've missed something and Henne is good to go), but they wont have any chance in clinching the division, they will get run over by the Chargers...

the big game for the raiders will in fact be the 2nd meeting with the chargers, win there and they might win the division as they'll hold a 2 game lead over the chargers in the divisional record, outside that i dont give them much hope

If we grab 2nd which is possible how does the wild card work?

[Northern Raider]

There are 6 playoff spots available to each conference. The winner of 4 divisions in each automatically get spot. The 2 highest ranked teams in each conference gain what are called the wildcard spots. Ranking is based primarily on win/loss record then its most wins against your own division then most wins against your own conference. If its still tied then they look at strength of schedule which is the win/loss record of you opponents during the season.

Cheers for answering that mate.

Close one in Oakland, Raiders up 14-13 at half time

Raiders season is as good as done going down 33-17.

Disgraceful performance from what ive read online.

If the Chargers can get up over Indianapolis (up by two at halftime) I can see them winning all their remaining games. It's a pretty decent draw from here on in and their record in November/December is exceptional. Philip Rivers is really starting to fire, too. Go Chargers.

[Nick]

Well Henne plays and the raiders begin sucking again. Jacoby Ford however... man that guy is alright, 300+ all purpose yards, not bad for a rookie

Im not the least bit surprised by the Colts v Chargers score line but im completely blown away that in a game that involved 36 charger points, Phillip Rivers didnt throw a single TD.

Unfortunately my Eagles lost
On the stroke of halftime, down by 1, Vick throws an End zone INT (his first of the season), bears march up the field and put a TD up to make the halftime lead 8 points

14 point turn around in a game we lost by 5. Gutting.
Back into a **** fight for control of the NFC East.

[Nick]

BTW i want it on the record that i think Sam Bradford will be the one of the best QB's in the league when he gets a legit #1 WR and a Rb that isnt banged up like Steven Jackson
the kid is so damn good.

[PrimetimeRaider]

CHARGERS!!

Looking so good, and that was without Rivers even throwing a touchdown. Imagine if we had got TDs instead of settling for FGs. Peaking at the right time again. Pretty easy schedule to end the year as well. Still need the Chiefs to lose a couple

Well, the Chiefs should lose at least one, when they play the Chargers in San Diego in a fortnight. I can't see the Chargers losing another game before the playoffs.

[Northern Raider]

Right now the Chiefs, Jaguars and Rams are all leading their divisions. Don't think too many people saw that happening.

Phins are hanging in there at 6-5 but its tough when there are two 9-2 teams in your division.

The phins are on a hiding to nothing in that division.
Mean while one of the Niners, Seahawks or Rams will be play off bound
such is life i guess

if anyone cares, campo is a chargers fan had a chat to him today while he was wearing their dirty jersey.

Fair enough, i was just saying to my partner if i wasnt an eagles fan i'd be either a chargers or texans fan. Both good exciting teams with loads of potential.


Going to work early tomorrow, so i can be home by 2:30pm in time for the eagles v texans game, all biased aside, should be a very exciting and high scoring game. Very explosive offenses. If Vick plays well the Texans dont have the defense to contain him, but they are good enough to beat us if their D turns up
Should be a very tight and nervous afternoon for me
but i am **** PUMPED for it!

[LP Raider]

What's going on with Philly they where cruising 17 - 3, I go outside to cut the grass and come back it's Houston 24-20.

[LP Raider]

Philly back in front 27 - 24.

Might crack one open and watch the end of this one.

[Nick]

Good solid win for philli, lost our way in the 3rd a bit but you gotta understand a team like Houston with Foster and Dre Johnson are going to get theirs in any game. We rode through it and gritted out a very good tough win.
8-5

[-GD-]

Raiders up 7-0 after a few minutes vs the Chargers.

They can call the game off now

[-GD-]

Raiders up 14-0, nearly the end of the first quater.

[PrimetimeRaider]

The Chargers are ^%^%and%$% useless! I cant believe theyre letting Jason Campbell dominate them. He's average! Too many injuries and crap playcalling. And 2 turnovers already!

Dont even deserve to make the playoffs. What a disappointing season again. How can you dominate the Colts and then let the Raiders dominate you? The sad thing is the Raiders have been **** since their last Chargers win and they'll be **** after this week as well.

21-3 now

I wouldnt say we have been **** since the last Chargers win, we won 3 straight in there and they were some good wins.
