Week 13 NFL Review

Saints at Falcons- The Falcons defense takes down one of the best passers in the league, intercepting Brees five times (a six called back due to encroachment). Despite this defensive performance, The Falcons offense struggled, and they still remain suspect regarding how far they could go in the playoffs.

Seahawks at Bears- Seattle takes the Bears into overtime and win a hard-fought touchdown, take one from the Bears and hurt their chances of a division crown.

Vikings at Packers- They didn't look impressive, but the Packers bounced back from the beatdown last week, winning a division game against a rival. Better right now- Packers

49ers at Rams- This game almost was a tie AGAIN! A second tie would have been the first in NFL history where a team tied the same team twice in one season. Zuerlein kicks two 50+ yard field goals and St. Louis gives the 49ers a painful loss Better right now- 49ers
Better at the end of the year- 49ers

Cardinals at Jets- A terrible game, but Greg McElory enjoyed it. Shonne Greene runs for 104 is a bad game, but a win for the J-E-T-S. Better right now- Jets

Panthers at Chiefs- Not even going to into the drama that has overtaken Kansas City, a win for the Chiefs is a good win for them, that's all. Better right now- Draw
Better at the end of the year- Panthers

Colts at Lions- Andrew Luck makes his name true and pulls one out at the gun, throwing instead of running it like he could have. The Lions lose a heartbreaker, and one they could have used at home.Better right now- Colts (by a little bit)
Better at the end of the year- Colts

Jaguars at Bills- This may have been Buffalos few wins left on their schedule, and they needed to make sure it was a win. Chad Henne got brought back down to reality, but at least he's starting. Better right now- Buffalo
Better at the end of the year- Buffalo

Patriots at Dolphins- The Dolphins always seem to give the Patriots trouble each year at least once. New England wins their division though, even if it wasn't by double-digits. Welker catches 12 passes for 103 yards and a touchdown.Better right now- New England
Better at the end of the year- New England

Texans at Titans- There wasn't much question who would win this game, was there? Houston tunes up for their Monday night showdown with New England. Tennessee's woes continue. Better right now- Houston
Better at the end of the year- Houston

Buccaneers at Broncos- Denver clinches the AFC West, though it felt like they'd done that weeks ago. Payton throws three touchdowns again, and even without a good rushing attack the Broncos are guaranteed a playoffs spot. Better right now- Denver
Better at the end of the year- Denver

Steelers at Ravens- Charlie Batch wins against the Ravens!? How is that possible? Field goal at the gun equals a division win for the Steelers, but if they want to continue to win they need to get healthy. Baltimore needs to tighten up on defense (never thought I'd have to say that). Better right now- Ravens
Better at the end of the year- Ravens

Browns at Raiders- Both quarterbacks throw for over 300 yards, but it's the Browns and Trent Richardson who win a game that is all but meaningless. Better right now- Browns
Better at the end of the year- Browns

Bengals at Chargers- It took 10 points in the fourth quarter, but the Bengals pulled it out against a Chargers team that needs some coaching changes at the end of the season. Better right now- Bengals
Better at the end of the year- Bengals

Eagles at Cowboys- A high scoring affair between two teams that have no defense and suspect offense. Bryce Brown for Philadelphia runs for 169 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries, but Romo didn't throw an interception, threw three touchdowns, and keeps Dallas's playoff dreams alive for another game.

Better right now- Dallas

Giants at Redskins- First Monday Night Football game for RGIII. Even when he fumbles he turns it into something good (a touchdown in this case). A low-scoring affair between two teams that should have their offenses in gear by this point of the year.  That being said, Washington takes this one by a point, RGIII continues his amazing season, and Washington is still within the playoff hunt. New York is within the time of the year where they slack, will it cost them this year?
