Oh, sorry for that headline T.O. I didn't mean to pull an Ed Werder on you.
Seriously, maybe the best thing I've seen in the NFL this season was the dropped pass by T.O. on third down in the opening series of the Cowboys' 20-8 victory over the New York Giants on Sunday night. The second-best thing I've seen had to be Jason Witten picking up the first down on third-and-9 to prevent the G-Men from getting the ball back and mounting a comeback. Hopefully--for the Cowboys' sake--all is now quiet on the Southwestern front...until T.O. has another three-catch performance...
By the way, was Tim Hightower on the field at all yesterday for Arizona in its terrible loss to Minnesota? The Cardinals proved once again that they don't match up favorably with a team with a winning record, while the Vikings may have just wrapped up the NFC North. One Vikings win or a Chicago Bears loss gives them the division crown.
Pittsburgh out-Baltimored the Ravens yesterday and now look like the team to beat for sure in the AFC. How quickly I forget about the Titans, right? Truth be told, I'm a little worried about Kerry Collins matching up against a Dick LeBeau-led defense. I'm also worried about Albert Haynesworth potentially being out for an extended period of time with that left knee injury sustained in Sunday's loss to Houston. You just cannot replace the likely NFL Defensive Player of the Year. As for the Colts, they did not impress me on Sunday against the Lions. Take away a few Dallas Clark catches and the Lions have their first win. New England? They played the Raiders, who while being more competitive than I thought this year, are still owned by Al Davis.
