Did 1 become bigger than 2 and no one told me?

Its by % so 2-0 & 1-0 are both 1.000.

So it goes to tiebreaker #3 & bengals must have the edge there in common games.

1 Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
2 Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
3 Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.

I'm pretty worried about Buffalo's game this weekend. The only coach that has been able to stop our high flying offense is Rex Ryan, and now we go against his brother.

Na you have nothing to worry about, Tony ChokeMo will find a way to lose the game like he usually does

They're not the same at all, while our defense did start the season well we have been exposed lately, particularly against the run and 2 defensive standouts are most likely not going to play. I see an offensive shoot-out, I just hope Romo and Murray have a better day than Fitzpatrick and Jackson.

That's what I think is going to happen. Threw a couple of upsets in there.

If they win even one of those games though I would guess Cincy-Pittsburgh will be the game because the Steelers guarantee good ratings.

Good point. I don't think the Bengals are for real either, but if they are still in playoff contention, I guess I would go with them as well.

Exactly what everyone else is saying. Our defense is light years ahead of Dallas' D. Although I wouldn't mind having Demarcus on our team

I wouldn't say light years ahead but they are good at forcing turn-overs. One key factor most people haven't noticed is Dallas is 3-1 at home this year so we're tough to beat there, hopefully that continues.

I'm surprised it's an early game, I thought for sure it would be a later game until I looked at the schedule the other day.

I just hope I get home in time from my nephew's baptism to see the whole thing, should be quite a game, hoping we keep up our stretch of not scoring on the ground, would love to get a lot of fantasy points out of Romo as well as a win.

Still think Mike Shanahan is going to turn your team around? Granted he's only been there for 1.5 seasons but it's not looking good so far.

You mean Fat Albert? If so, then why did they wait this long to do it?

I don't know what his deal is. I mean he's still not admitting to needing to rebuild. But if he actually committed to it, I'd say he could.

Problem is they get into these mini rebuilds and if they don't fully commit they wind up wasting their young players careers and I just don't want to see it happen to Orakpo and Kerrigan


After he leaves however it happens not sure what they'll do since they've almost tried everything super bowl coaches, good coaches, bad coaches, college coaches, first time coaches

Patriots waived DT Albert Haynesworth.
The Boston Globe's Greg Bedard pointed out Monday night that Haynesworth turned in three of the worst plays ever seen by a defensive tackle in Week 9. Haynesworth got "ragdolled easy," pancaked, and then fell down with a soft shove against the Giants, leading to a sideline confrontation with DL coach Pepper Johnson. Haynesworth still has the talent to excel, but his heart isn't it. It will be interesting to see if Eagles DL coach Jim Washburn, who had Haynesworth in Tennessee, will push for a waiver claim. He's a locker room cancer at this point.
