Welcome to Week 14. This week I like these match ups:

Saints @ Cowboys
Raiders @ Bengals
Broncos @ Chargers
Packers @ 49er's
Seahawks @ Cardinals

These games should give us positive results from Drew Brees, Reggie Bush, Tony Romo, Terrell Owens, Larry Fitzgerald, Ladanian Tomlinson, Carson Palmer,Chad Johnson, Frank Gore, Matt Hasselbeck and Shaun Alexander.

Weekly Recap

The Cowboys and Giants game lived up to expectations, and Marion Barber has turned into a TD machine this year.

Game of the Week

Saints @ Cowboys - Like Bono said, "The Saints are coming!". Reggie Bush had his break out game, and Drew Brees should find lots of room in the Dallas secondary. However, if the Cowboys can run the ball and manage the clock, they have a great shot at winning this game, and just may be laying claim as the team to beat in the NFC.
