Packers 17 Cowboys 7

So the Packer’s D finally woke up this week! They came with some pressure and actually got to Romo? And the only change was Kampman being out…which probably doesn’t bode well for his future with the Pack. He just isn’t made to be a stand up pass rusher. What sucks is now they won’t get squat for him in trade value. I’d like to see him as the DE on passing downs. They have to figure out a better way to utilize his skills for the rest of the season.

The D looked active and tenacious on Sunday. This is what most packer fans expected to see. It was very strange how quickly the Cowboys abandoned the running game however. Having zero balance to their O made it possible for the Packers to unleash the hounds so to speak.

Vikings 28 Lions 10

This game should have been much worse. The Vikings are starting to look like a scary team to me. Just solid on all counts. Defense, offense, special teams…Really the only thing holding them from attaining first round bye will be themselves. Any major injury to Pat/Kevin Williams, AP, Favre would end their season in my mind.

49ers 10 Bears 6 (Thursday night)

The Bears fall to their former star middle linebacker, Mike Singletary. Cutler with 5 picks. Enough said.

Besides Rodgers, this might be TT's best first round pick

Week 10 Winners

• Charles Woodson – 9 tackles, INT, Sack and two forced fumbles. What a huge game by a future HOF’er.
• Packer’s coaches – Dom Capers, Mike McCarthy actually had a good game plan.
• Aaron Rodgers – Solid game
• Clay Matthews III – This guy is a future pro bowler, perfect fit for the Packers 3-4.
• Barnett / Hawk – Looked solid. AJ has played pretty good for four weeks straight now. And Barnett looks to be back.

Week 10 Losers

• Jay Cutler – 5 picks…and I loved how Deion Sanders was killing him about not seeming to have a care after throwing a pick.
• Tramon Williams – Anybody who gets the ball stripped by a punter deserves to be here no matter what.

Belichick’s 4th down call

This has been talked (and here) about enough, but this is reminiscent to the 1995 Cowboys/Eagles game when Barry Switzer was heavily criticized for failing a 4th and short on their own 29. That team ended up winning the Super Bowl. I did thoroughly enjoy this episode of the Colts/Pats game also. It never lives down to the hype!
