Around the league:
Reggie Bush tied a franchise record by scoring 4 TD's and gained 168 total yards--including 131 yards on 9 receptions. Go, Saints.
Martin Gramatica signed last week to replace Mike Vanderjagt kicked a 46 yard field goal with one second left to lift Dallas Cowboys past New York Giants.
Backup QB Derek Anderson replacing injured Charlie Frye threw two fourth-quarter TD passes and ran 33 yards in overtime to set up Phil Dawson's 33 yard field goal giving Cleveland the win over Kansas City.
Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison hooked up for their 100th TD pass Sunday as a QB/WR duo. They have been teammates 1998 to current.
Rex Grossman had a QB rating of 1.8 (yes) and Da Bears still won. Defense!
Rex means king. He was certainly king of playing errors...but Da Bears roll on
and are 10-2 with Rex Grossman.
Marc Bulger threw 3 interception and his team generated 126 yards in penalties.
No, not rushing yards, penalties. Edgerrin James ran for 115 yards. Even the challenged Cardinals managed to capitalize on such terrible mistakes from the Rams. The final score: Arizona: 34 versus Rams: 20 (Just had to add James did pretty well...I miss him being on Colts team.) But with Addai, do they miss him? I doubt it. Probably like James may miss them.
Also some breaking news: Jake Delhomme might be benched for the next Carolina game when Panthers play Giants. Why? Here is the reason:
Written: 12/7, 2006 at 5: 30 AM. So you know it was breaking news when I wrote it. Jake Delhomme has an injury and is listed as questionable. Delhomme has injured the thumb of his throwing hand. If he can't go this Sunday his backup will get the start. According to sources it has nothing to do with Delhomme's performance at QB in the last several games.
