'Tis the season for some football ... fa la la la la la la la la!

Let's see what's up for Sunday ...

- Passing records are being threatened by Saints quarterback Drew Brees. Brees has thrown for 300 or more yards in six of his last seven games. Brees now has 4,033 passing yards on the season and needs to average 351 yards per game in his last 3 games to surpass Dan Marino's NFL record of 5,084 yards passing in 1984.

- The longest continuing series in the NFL returns when the Lions face the Packers at Lambeau Field. Once unbeatable at Lambeau, the Packers now appear totally vulnerable at their home stadium. Green Bay is 1-5 at home this year, and has been shut out twice. The Packers have lost 10 home games the past two seasons after losing just 10 home games total between 2000 and 2004 (30-10). The last time before this season that they had been shutout at home was 10/17/91 versus Chicago, the year before Brett Favre became a Packer.

- Can Vince Young keep the magic alive for the Titans? It's a matchup of two red-hot teams in Nashville, as the Jaguars pay a visit. Tennessee has won four straight games in the same season for the first time since they won six straight from 10/12-11/23/2003.

The Jaguars, meanwhile, rushed for a franchise-record 375 yards against Indianapolis in Week 14. It was tied for the second-highest rushing total for a team in one game since 1970 (Bengals, 407 yards vs. Denver, 10/22/2000).

- Here's what Milhouse Van Houten of the Simpsons had to say about the Texans-Patriots game in Foxboro, "New England was shut out last week. Just like my Dad and I have been shut out by every girl we've ever loved. But some day we'll score, just like New England will this week."

- The Bears have already clinched the NFC North division title. However, home-field advantage throughout the playoffs can be clinched today (complete playoff picture).

The Bears face the Buccaneers, who have just one win in its last seven games and will be looking to snap its three-game losing streak. During their three-game slide, the Bucs have been outscored 75-19.

Enjoy the action!
