NFL Scores: Week 13 (Showdown Sunday)
Indy 35, Tennessee 3 (Colts march on unbeaten and just hammer the hapless Titans; complete domination from the opening whistle. San Diego next week will be quite the opponent for Indy in 2 weeks).
Minnesota 21, Detroit 16 (Vikings now in the thick of the playoff hunt after their fifth straight win; Detroit may be in more chaos than any team in the league)
Chicago 19, Green Bay 7 (It looked like the Packers were going to take this one until Favre's INT at the half; Chicago gets a wounded and angry Pittsburgh team next week at Pitt)
Carolina 24, Atlanta 6 (First victory for the Panthers over Vick; their defense dominated with five sacks and 2 INTS)
Jacksonville 20, Cleveland 14 (Backup QB Garrard leads the Jags to a comeback victory over the snakebit Browns; Frye looks like a competent NFL QB for the Browns).
Baltimore 16, Houston 15 (Houston drops to 1-11 as they still lead the way for Reggie Bush; this is a game you'd TiVO and forget about when you finally decide to fall asleep).
NY Giants 17, Dallas 10 (The Giants take over 1st place in the NFC East with this showdown win; their defense dominated the Cowboys all day. Dallas is now in a dogfight just to make the playoffs with a very hard schedule ahead).
Cincinnati 38, Pittsburgh 31 (Bengals put a hammerlock on the AFC North with this huge win at Pittsburgh; best game the Bengals have played all season)
Tampa Bay 10, New Orleans 3 (Another game for the Tivo; Bucs win ugly in Baton Rouge to stay a game behind the Panthers when they go to Carolina next week. Bucs are at this point the first NFC Wild Card at 8-4)
Miami 24, Buffalo 23 (Chambers has the game of his life and the Fish come back from 21 points down to stun Buffalo; Bills essentially eliminated from any playoff possibility)
Arizona 17, San Francisco 10 (Niners drop to 2-10 and become primary competitor to the Texans for Reggie Bush; Cardinals take themselves out of that equation with a stunning Anquan Boldin TD catch and run)
Washington 24, St. Louis 9 (Redskins defense dominates rookie QB Fitzpatrick and evens their record at 6-6; the Rams are basically eliminated from the playoff chase. Redskins still have critical games left with the Cowboys and Giants at home)
New England 16, NY Jets 3 (Patriots weren't impressive at all, but did enough to beat the horrible Jets; it is conceivable for the Jets to get the top pick, as they could go 2-14 and someone has to win the Texans-Niners classic in the last week of the season)
Kansas City 31, Denver 27 (Toe-to-toe slugfest at Arrowhead; Plummer played perhaps his worst game since the opening week as the Chiefs got their offense rolling. Despite being at 8-4, the Chiefs would still miss the playoffs if the season ended today)
San Diego 34, Oakland 10 (Although this was not LDT's best game, the Chargers totally outclassed the Raiders in San Diego; their defense stood out and virtually shut down the Raiders)
Seattle at Philly MNF
