The first 11 weeks of the NFL regular season have come and gone and the defending Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers are still perfect with the best record in the NFL at 10-0. This doesn’t as a surprise to many NFL analysts or avid Packers fans around the country as there has been no question that Green Bay is the best team in the league right now, but the defending champs were tested in Week 11 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Chicago Bears came into this NFL regular season as the defending NFC North division champions and with a serious chip on their shoulders after losing to the arch division rival Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship game. With the loss to the Packers still fresh in the minds of the Bears players, Chicago was determined to get back on track this season as one of the elite teams in the NFC Conference. Continue Reading…

San Diego Chargers @ Chicago Bears Sun. Nov. 20, 2011 4:15 p.m. EST

Coming into this NFL regular season, the San Diego Chargers were considered to be a team that was ready to bounce back from a disappointing season last year. Even though the Chargers were statistically the best team in the league on both sides of the football last season, San Diego failed to win the AFC West division title and missed the playoffs entirely. Continue Reading…

Carolina Panthers @ Detroit Lions Sun. Nov. 20, 2011 1 p.m. EST

After the first five weeks of the NFL regular season, the Detroit Lions were considered to be one of the elite teams in the league with a perfect 5-0 record and a seemingly unstoppable offense led by up-and-coming quarterback Matthew Stafford. Not only was the offense of Detroit firing on all cylinders, but the defense was transformed into a force to be reckoned with as second-year defensive beast Ndamukong Suh intimidating opposing offenses.

Dallas Cowboys @ Washington Redskins Sun. Nov. 20, 2011 1 p.m. EST

The last few weeks have been great for the Dallas Cowboys as they have gone from a perennial underachiever to a team with high hopes of making the playoffs and winning their division title. There are still seven games left in the regular season and anything can happen, but the Cowboys have something they haven’t had in years with a dominant ground game. Continue Reading…

The Tim Tebow fever in the Mile High City is at an all-time high right now as the second-year quarterback and fan favorite led the Denver Broncos to a fourth win over five games since becoming the starter for head coach John Fox. Even though the Broncos aren’t winning football games through the air like John Fox would like, Tim Tebow has shown that he knows how to get the job done regardless of whether or not it is through the air or on the ground. Continue Reading…

#1 Green Bay Packers (9-0)

Aaron Rodgers and company have done it again after winning their ninth straight game of their Super Bowl title defense and keeping hopes alive for a perfect season!

With the blowout win over the division rival Minnesota Vikings (45-7) in Week 10, there seems to be no stopping this team this season as the competition just doesn’t compare, but this team might be challenged on Thanksgiving Day against the division rival Detroit Lions. Continue Reading…

Before Week 10, the Oakland Raiders were a team on the up-and-up in the NFL with a potentially bright future, but still struggling with their new starting quarterback Carson Palmer. Even though Palmer’s first two games with the Raiders were rough and pretty disappointing considering he threw three interceptions in each game, head coach Hue Jackson stuck by his new quarterback as he knew it was a matter of time before the former Heisman trophy winner got back to form. Continue Reading…

Last season the Kansas City Chiefs emerged as one of the best teams in the NFL with the best running game in the league and an AFC West division title to their credit. With things on the up-and-up in Kansas City, the sky seemed to be the limit for the Chiefs as they had a young team intact and were solid on both sides of the football. Continue Reading…

New York Jets @ Denver Broncos Thurs. Nov. 17, 2011 8:20 p.m. EST

The New York Jets and the Denver Broncos didn’t have much time to recover from Week 10 as these two teams will go head-to-head in Week 11 on Thursday night football in the Mile High City.

This is an interesting matchup for many reasons, but perhaps the most interesting is the Broncos’ Tim Tebow going up against the lockdown defense of the Jets. With Tebow completing just two of eight passes last week in the win over the Kansas City Chiefs (17-10), the Broncos used an offense strictly based on the run game and surprisingly enough it worked like a charm.
