Can there be any doubt that a healthy Rodgers is MVP? That was sad yesterday.

Who voted for Peyton the year he went down? If Peyton didn't win MVP for missing the year, I'm not in it for Rodgers missing a few games. There are too many players having a great year to give him the award. They don't really have any Super Bowl aspirations with him healthy, so it's not like he's costing them a Title.

Hmmmm what side is the Monday night football on usually please? Thought I'd have a late one tonight and watch some NFL but can't find this anywhere?

Good game tonight, my Saints at Seattle, who may have the best home environment in the league (and a good team too). Some think the winner of this game is Super Bowl bound, since the winner tonight locks Home Field for any future playoff matchup.

Devastated at the Chiefs loss yesterday. Three tight games in a row haven't gone our way.

From a Seattle supporter, I'm excited to see if we turn up against a real team. Credit to the Saints, but I'm not about to let you forget about this.

These games test and build the kind of character that winners need. No fear heading into this one. If the Saints lose, we know what it will take to get there.

I won't watch that again, once is enough, but you beat us soundly that day. You've got a better team this year, and by all accounts a great leader in Wilson. (2nd) Best of luck to your Seahawks tonight.

Not the start I was hoping for...

Iggles fans worldwide saying "uh huh, you'll see - here comes that 5 yard play action pass again on third and eight."

Hang in there dawg. The house in KC was fearful to behold. Still need a couple more playmakers, though.

First the Jets, and now embarrassingly by the Seahawks, it's clear that a physical D-line with good cover corners can stymie the Saints offense (which is their defense, too). The good news is that New Orleans now get two games against the Panthers to sort it all out before the playoffs begin. The bad news is that New Orleans now get two games against the Panthers in which they'll likely lose the Division and walk into the playoffs as a WC.

In any case, good win by the Seahawks.

I remember watching this live. What an AWESOME play.

I remember seeing Lynch live when with Buffalo. He's one of those guys that makes people act like they've grabbed a 220 line when they try to tackle him - you can't really see it on the tube. He's a beast, but he also runs with something extra. That's big boy football, there.

Yeah the downside to Andy Reid is showing up. Why not run it on 1st or 2nd down with just over 2 minutes to play? Charles had been gashing them? Time wasn't a factor.

The week before he totally screwed up the clock management by calling a timeout with 15 seconds to go on the play clock and failing to run it once again in deep to run the clock down and not give Rivers time to beat us.

Also Bob Sutton the DC, needs to know it's not against the rules to play a zone on 3rd and long and keep everything in front and force them to punt.

We've made it tough on ourselves but if we're healthy heading into the playoffs we can beat every team in the AFC on the road. But it's going to be a tough road.
