Week 11 Roundup

Childress Gets Canned
Earlier today the Minnesota Vikings fired Brad Childress and appointed Leslie Frazier as their interim head coach. This this isn't much of a surprise for most of us, what's surprising is that it took so long for Ziggy to fire Brad Childress. Chilly wasn't a fan favorite and didn't have the backing of his players. He should have been fired before Wade Phillips. Childress waived Randy Moss less than month after the Viks acquired him from the Patriots. On top of that he failed to notify Ziggy Wilf. This seems ludicrous to me, but Childress is gone and the Vikings season can only go up from here.

Someone needs to pull Favre next. Must I point out that Favre's magic only works every other year (2007 Packers reach the NFC Championship Game, 2008-Jets fail to make the playoffs, 2009 Vikings reach NFC Championship game, 2010 Vikings are 3-7). Paging Tavaris Jackson, Mr. Jackson?

Unstoppable Eagles?
The Eagles were able to sneak past the Giants on Sunday Night Football and while a win is a win, the Giants showed the rest of the world that Starship 7 & Crew can be beaten. Philly ran the ball well but their receivers seemed to be a little bit off.Mike Vick was forced to his right side and seemed a little flustered at times. The Giants Defense but up a great fight and Justin Tuck's forced fumble put the Giants in position to beat the Eagles. Philly's run game was too much for the G-Men in the end but this NFC North battle is not over yet. Mark December 19th on your calendars folks!

Holmes at Home
The Cardiac Jets have been keeping fans on the edge of their seats for the past three weeks. This Sunday at the Meadowlands Mr. Sanchez lead the Jets to another nail-biting victory with under a minute left on the clock. The hero of the game was former Super Bowl XLIII MVP Santonio Holmes. The veteran wide receiver caught a 6 yard touchdown pass from Sanchez with just 10 seconds left on the clock to end the Texans' comeback. The Jets are flying high this season and I'm sure this isn't the last we'll see of Mr. Holmes

How About Dem Falcons?
Mike Vick may be helping his team out without even realizing it. Philly is now the team to beat in the NFC. Everyone has their eyes on Vick as the Falcons continue to fly under the radar. Atlanta is 8-2 and in the perfect position to win the NFC South. If things continue to go well I could see the Falcons playing the Eagles for the NFC Championship Game.--Battle of the Birds Part II. The Eagles beat the Falcon earlier this season with an impressive 37-17 win. I would love to see Vick play his old team for a chance to go to the Super Bowl.

False Alarm
I was pretty bummed about the Saints last minute decision to rule Mr. Bush inactive for the Saints-Seahawks game. It's always nice to see such a gorgeous man on the football field but I'm sure that Mr. Bush will grace us with his presence just in time for the holiday season.
