Min @ Oak: As Cyrus once said in The Warriors, “Can you Diggs it?” When Stefon is not at some esoteric club he’s tearing it up on the field. QB Teddy and his 6 TD/6 Int’s is quite happy to have found someone that he has a rapport with. That ought to improve those ugly stats quite a bit. The Raiders have averaged 35.5 points in their last three while the Vikes D have been holding their opponents to an average of 17 all season long. This shall be an interesting game of strength against strength. Both of these teams are just beginning to understand just how good they actually are. Oakland has the poorer record because, quite understandably given their history, it took a little bit longer.

NE @ NYG: The Giants can’t stop the short passing game.* Brady excels at the short passing game and is on fire right now. Let’s watch and see how this plays out.

*or the medium or the long passing game

KC @ Den: This is another game that looked great at the beginning of the season. RB Davis, once the handcuff to JC, is on the inactive list. Oh how the not-mighty have fallen! You may ask yourself, “how are they going to replace 2.6 ypc?”. One of the other voices in your head would answer “Spencer Ware” sometime after it told you to kill the neighbour’s dog. Peyton is starting to turn things around, improving his completion %, yards per catch and QBR these last few weeks. Perhaps he’s getting some feeling back in his hands? That said, he’s got a foot thingy and a rib ailment that he’s dealing with. That sound you heard was Justin Houston and Tamba Hali and Andy Reid licking their chops. With respect to Houston and Hali I was speaking metaphorically.
