Jeff you've done it again, Thanks for the excellent report.
Update on Philly; Chip Kelly is out of a job effective, today! They haven't announced who would be coach for last game.

On the Cin - Den game; Cincy dominated the first half and were exhausted for the 2nd half especially with Denver doing a no huddle offense; that's where home field advantage really comes into play for Denver; that air is very thin and visiting teams aren't there long enough to be used to it.
That's probably the main reason Denver looked so good in the 2nd half; they are used to mile high.

Can't argue with the 'altitude advantage' Denver has. Takes about a week to acclimate, especially if you head up into the mountains.
May the rest of their season be "home games"!:D;)

We had a great game today, but now we have to wait and see who wins tonight to determine who we're going to play.
(For those that don't know, when I say we it means Seattle Seahawks) GO SEAHAWKS!

H*ll Yeah! :rockon: Home field advantage for the playoffs!! GO BRONCOS!!

That was a good game! I wonder how sore Peyton is? He took a couple of good hard hits.

Actually, it was a terrible game. The Cards didn't show up to play in a game that was essentially meaningless for them (what were the chances the Bucs would beat the Panthers?). On top of that, the officials blew a pass interference call that resulted in an interception well inside AZ territory instead of a first down near midfield. It put the Seahawks up 10-0 and that was essentially the end of the game. The rest of the time the Seahawks ran up the score while the Cards just played to avoid injuries.
