Things went very well for the Green Bay Packers yesterday. First, they roll the admittedly weak St. Louis Rams to advance to 12-2. I realize the Rams are no powerhouse, but it was Favre, and it was a Dome, and given his past success in domes, anything could have happened. But Favre and Co. did their thing, through the air and with some help from the running game. Ryan Grant looked good, but a little unneccesary, given how well the passing game and defense were playing. And what happened to Atari Bigby? All season long it seriously looked like I could have covered better in the backfield, and then suddenly, he's a beast. Two INTs, some good pass coverage, and some good hits. Maybe Santa came early this year to Green Bay. Favre finally has the record that I didn't think he would be able to get--the passing yards record. I am still waiting for Marino to come out and say "Yeah, he's got the record, but I didn't play as long as him...". It's been the theme this year--why should he be any different?

Dallas looked terrible yesterday. I didn't get to watch the whole game, but what I did see was not impressive. Romo looked off even before his thumb injury, and it never seemed that the Cowboys could really get anything going. Luckily for them that they recovered every fumble, or the game could have been worse. Suddenly, the Cowboy fans that were lambasting the Patriots for squeaking by Philadelphia have become rather quiet. Turns out Johnson's defense is no joke. I am not holding my breath, but maybe Washington and/or Carolina could give the Packers and early Christmas gift and beat Dallas again. Let's see how great Dallas is if they have to go to Green Bay for the playoffs. BTW, do you still think Dallas is better than New England, Jimmy Johnson?

I believe Brian Westbrook was the most intelligent and classiest player on the field yesterday. You show me five other players that would have knelt down on the 1-yard line in order to run out the clock. Absolutely brilliant, and absolutely selfless.

I was a little dissapointed that I did not get to see New England pound Mangini and the Jets. Wind and rain are not conducive to high powered offense, as we have seen a year long. Maybe the Patriots will have better weather when they repay the Dolphins for Shula's arrogant comments. Now that the Dolphins have a win, no one is going to feel sorry for them anymore.

Normally, I don't care much for college football, but Rich Rodriguez earned #### of the Week. How do you say that you are going to stay with WV, sign an extension, and then bolt? I realize that a lot of coaches have done the bolting part lately, but as far as I know, none of them have signed extensions first. I really hope Rodriguez does poorly in Michigan. Karma, and all that.
