10 THINGS...

1. I think Robert Meacham was awesome on Sunday. To me, he’s supplanted Steve Breaston as the best #3 WR in the league.

2. I’d be very afraid of the Packers right now. Their defense is ferocious, they’ve seemed to repair their O-line issues, and Aaron Rodgers is on a tear. You don’t want to face these guys wild-card weekend.

3. The Cowboys missed another great opportunity by losing to the Giants on Sunday. By my count that’s at least 3: The loss to the Giants week 1, the loss to the Broncos, and the loss to the Packers. By winning yesterday they could have effectively ended the Giant’s season, and put some fear into a Chargers team heading their way next week. As much as I love them, they’re not winners. And it goes back to what I said early in the year- that it starts at the top with the ownership and coaches. The team is laden with talent, but the attitude and culture is one of self-doubt and tentativeness- instead of the expectation of winning each and every Sunday (see the Saints). However, having said that, I say the Cowboys will put a drubbing on San Diego this Sunday.

4. I still think Anquan Boldin is a beast. Re-watch the SNF game film if you doubt me. He’s a MANANIMAL!

5. Glad you left them on the bench (D&G):
Brandon Jacobs 29 pts
Roy Williams 19 pts
Wes Welker 24 pts
Rashard Mendenhall 18 pts
Antonio Gates 23 pts
Tony Romo 45 pts
Drew Braes 43 pts

6. Glad you left them on the bench (TonyNFL):
Calvin Johnson 22 pts
Jerome Harrison 19 pts
Brandon Jacobs 30 pts
Eagles D 20 pts
Kevin Smith 19 pts
Knowshon Moreno 28 pts
Brandon Marshall 14 pts
Chad Henne 42 pts
Marshawn Lynch 16 pts
Santonio Holmes 19 pts
Tony Romo 54 pts
Miles Austin 15 pts
Wes Welker 16 pts

7. Three outcomes I still cannot understand:
Redskins giving up the ghost
Steelers going out like chumps
Patriots losing the momentum, lead, and game to the Dolphins

8. Wanna know how to beat the Steelers? 3 words: Pass, Pass, and Pass. They currently rank 17th against the pass having given up 2600+ yards, and 15 TDs, with only 8 picks. Other teams with 8 picks? Cleveland, Detroit, and St. Louis. The Steeler’s secondary was torched ALL DAY by Gradkowski (308 yards, 3 TDs) and his group of receivers. In fact, during the Steeler’s 4-game losing streak, Matt Cassel had 248 PaYds with 2 TDs, and Joe Flacco had 289 PaYds with 1 TD.

9. D&G: I think it’s hilarious that Cologne Boy drafted T.J. Houshmandzadeh and is actually going to win the Championship (see the commercial). Had to happen in my pool didn’t it?!

10. Tom Brady:
-3 Super Bowl Championships.
-Some say the best to ever play the QB position.
-2 sons.
-2 different women.
-Both Supermodels.
-Worth millions.
-Yeah...this guy needs to get a life.
