Sunday NFL Recap

Mike Vick is back...



Primetime











Mike Vick is back...

Crash Landing
Primetime put up 292 total yards and 2 TD while helping his Eagles (5-3) stomp all over the Colts (5-3).  The game was one of many nail-biters today, coming down to a last failed Peyton Manning drive.  Speaking of which, the score did not reflect the dominance displayed by the Eagles on the field, as the Colts were continually helped by timely questionable officiating.  A hit by Kurt Coleman (for which he will undeservedly be fined for) had Austin Collie doing his best Jahvid Best impression... Overall, Vick was extremely impressive and efficient, and DeSean Jackson looks completely recovered from his concussion.

Turner the Burner scored twice and ran for over 100 and the Falcons (6-2) stopped the LaGarrette Blount at the 2 yard line on 4th-1 with 2 minutes left. The NFC South battle was a fun game to watch, with the Bucs nearly finding a way to pull it out in the end as they have done the entire year.

Still sucks
Mark Sanchez looked terrible for 3 quarters (minus a 70 yd Braylon Edwards TD) but came up huge when it mattered most.  The Jets (6-2) came back from 10 down in the 4th to win on a Nick Folk 30 yard FG in OT after a 50 yard strike from Sanchez to Holmes.  The Lions (2-6) looked to be in cruise control until Matt Stafford went down after being tackled from behind scrambling late in the 4th, re-injuring his throwing shoulder.

Jett Favre led his Vikings on a heroic 4th quarter comeback that may have saved the Vikings (3-5) season and Brad Childress' job (for now).  He hit Shiancoe on a 25 yard pass over the middle to tie the game with 27 seconds remaining.  Longwell sealed the deal with a 35 yard FG in OT to beat the Cardinals (3-5) 27-24.  Favre had his best day of the year, passing for 446 yards and 2 TD with 2 Int.

Sebastian Janikowski's OT FG won it for the Raiders (5-4), who seemed to be asleep in the first half against the Chiefs (5-3).  Campbell "hit"Jacoby Ford (the pass looked to be intercepted until Ford miraculously tore the ball away) for 29 yards with 7 seconds remaining putting them in range to kick the game tying FG as time expired.
Welcome to Oakland
The Cowboys (1-7) were completely embarrassed in Green Bay by the Packers (6-3).  Jerry Jones needs to clean house, because the Cowboys are a complete joke.  It will be shocking if Wade Phillips is still the coach by next Sunday... he should have been fired after week 3.  The terrible defense, dumb mistakes and countless costly penalties are just flat out embarrassing for "America's Team."  Rodgers had 3 TD and Clay Matthews was a man playing amongst boys in the Sunday Night game.

The Patriots (6-2) were dominated by Peyton Hillis (aka The Incredible Hulk 2.0 aka the only white RB in the NFL).  Not much to say here, the Browns (3-5) just completely outplayed them.   Justin Beiber must have beat up Tom Brady and stole his uniform before the game because that wasn't the All Pro QB we are all used to out there on Sunday.

The Saints (6-3), Ravens (6-2), and Giants (6-2) all won in dominating fashion, while the Bears (5-3) and Chargers (4-5) barely squeaked out victories.
