New England Patriots at New Orleans Saints Only two weeks removed from imploding after seeing a double digit lead slip through their hands in the waning moments of their Week 10 match-up against the only undefeated team in the AFC, the New England Patriots will try their luck against the last remaining undefeated team in the NFC when they take on the New Orleans Saints in prime time on Monday Night Football. In an interesting and unusual turn of events, [...]

Pittsburgh 17 at Baltimore 20 Review: In a game that ultimately came down to who wasn’t on the field rather than who was, third string Steelers quarterback Dennis Dixon put up a valiant fight before proving to be the fatal flaw in Pittsburgh’s ultimate demise. With Ben Roethlisberger out, Dixon looked strong early, using his mobility to the team’s advantage and throwing sharp passes with zip and accuracy. Dixon’s solid play faltered down the stretch, but was supplemented by the [...]

Now that our bellies are full from partaking in the beautiful and gluttonous tradition of Thanksgiving and our wallets are empty from joining the equally compelling American ritual of post holiday shopping via Black Friday sales, we can once again direct our focus to the wonderful world of fantasy football and let the Pigskin Paparazzi introduce its first annual Thanksgiving List: I’m thankful that the NFL schuduled three games on Thanksgiving (and only mildly disappointed that not one of them was competitive or compelling enough to [...]

1 Baltimore’s anemic redzone offense enabled the Colts to stay unbeaten. With a three game lead over anyone else in the AFC, it looks as though the road to the Superbowl goes through Indy. – Rob Leath   2 Wins don’t come much easier than that, even for the Saints. What makes their record all the more impressive is they are tied atop the league leaders with players on Injured Reserve. – Mike Kaus   3 Another win over an [...]

Week 12: The Rock will get the Rock. I grew up in Buffalo New York and will be heading back there for the first time in over a year to see my family for Thanksgiving.  You see I love Buffalo…I really do.  I would live there if the city had an economy and some life.  I think the people are great, I obviously love the sports teams, the food is fantastic, and it is a nice luxury to have Casino’s [...]

Couple of shockers this week – Chiefs over the Steelers and Raiders over the Bengals!!! The NFL likes to push parity, but all the Chiefs & Raiders have provided the past few years is parody! QB’s Brady Quinn had a big week, scoring 3 TD’s in the first quarter alone! Alex Smith had a bad first half, but managed to bounce back in the second half of the game. Matt Stafford scored a rookie record 5 TD’s, and showed some [...]

Philadelphia 24 at Chicago 20 Review: Both teams struggled in the Red Zone but Philadelphia was able to hit on more of the big plays that have sustained them this year while Jay Cutler missed every wide-open, long-bomb opportunity that presented itself. After establishing the run-game with a trio of running backs and opening the short-game with Brent Celek, Donovan McNabb was able to go deep to DeSean Jackson and hit on a 48 yard touchdown strike that actually ended [...]
