NFL: Thought from Week 11

There’ still a game to be played tonight but nobody outside of Cleveland and Buffalo cares much about it. In fact, most people in Cleveland don’t even care about it.

So let’s look back at a few of the highlights from Week 11.

The Titans are still undefeated. It wasn’t easy against the Jaguars but the Titans made the plays they have to make. However, can we stop all the undefeated talk?

The Titans haven’t blown anybody out all year. Just about every single game is decided by less than a score. The odds are eventually going to catch up with the Titans. At some point they will have the ball bounce the wrong way or they’ll get a bad call whistled on them. Something will happen.

Though the Titans are undefeated, it’s the Giants who are clearly the best team in football right now. The G-Men dismantled the Ravens. Yes, the ravens who are one of the better teams in the AFC.

It was supposed to be a major battle between a great rushing defense and a great rushing team. Turns out, the Giants were able to just run over everybody. And it wasn’t even close.

The Miami Dolphins are now 6-4 and in second place in the AFC East. Yup, that’s right. The Dolphins are ahead of the Patriots after playing 10 games. Imagine is you predicted that back in August? Wow.

Finally, the Dallas Cowboys aren’t dead yet. Sure, all the media “experts” said Romo wouldn’t make that much of a difference and that Dallas still had their troubles, and Dallas does still have problems., but Romo made a big impact in the intensity the Cowboys showed. And the Boys won a very hard fought 14-10 game over the Washington Redskins.

As unlikely as it seems, the Cowboys (who the media has made out to be one of the worst teams in football) and the Redskins (the media’s darling who has been having a great season) are now tied in the standings.
