NFL News & Notes – Week 12

November 25th, 2007 . by Dell

- It pained me deeply to see the eagles come up just short in the game against the New England Patriots. I can’t dog them for going for it when they didn’t need to at the end, they were aggressive the whole game and it worked most of the time. What I’m most glad about is, the Colts and Eagles have now given the rest of the league a blueprint in stopping them.

I have three fantasy football squads. Brady is on one, Moss is on one, and I have 3 Patriot players on the last. Despite all of that I still rooted against them tonight, my real life hatred of New England supersedes any fantasy ambitions I might have.

- If Eli Manning wasn’t “a Manning”, would the Giants have given up on him by now? Three interceptions returned for touchdowns? … christ.

- Jerry Porter is extremely overrated, but he made two GREAT all pro type catches in today’s win over the Chiefs.

- It was kinda pathetic to see the entire CBS NFL Today crew jump all over Chad Johnson for his cameraman celebration. The media makes me sick sometimes. Chad Johnson is the new Terrell Owens, they’ll be calling for his suspension soon.

- If you’ve never heard of Patrick Willis, you need to acquaint yourself. The 49ers rookie linebacker is an absolute BEAST. I’m fairly sure he led the NFL in tackles coming into today, and if he didn’t he certainly does now. He logged 17 tackles and 0.5 sacks today against the cardinals. That wasn’t even the best part.

In overtime, Kurt Warner hit a wide receiver on a long pass, and a clear path to the endzone, the game was OVER….except for the fact that Patrick Willis chased him down from at least 7 yards behind and singlehandedly saved the game. A LINEBACKER chased down a wide receiver from 7 yards back in the open field… This guy has the talent to become one of the greatest at this pace.

- Devin Hester…. what more can you say about this guy. The visuals of him hurdling Todd Sauerbrun will be etched in my mind for the next week. Funny stuff.
