Unlikely Upsets, Saints and Colts Still Undefeated, Broncos Continue to Fall and More

Week 11 showed that no team is safe from an upset. One such upset was the Raiders beating the 7-2 Bengals 20-17. The Raiders came back in the fourth to win it thanks to a Gradkowski TD pass and a Janikowski Field Goal. Say that ten times. Another upset was the Chiefs beating the Steelers in OT 27-24. This must hurt the Steelers losing to this team while the Bengals lose as well. They could've made up some ground but they didn't. No one could upset the undefeated Colts and Saints however. The Colts barely hold for the win over the Ravens 17-15 while the Saints crush the Bucs 38-7. While the Colts did play against the stronger team, the Saints still looked more impressive.

Other games include the Broncos getting destroyed by the Chargers 32-3. This team continues to fall apart and desperately needs a win as they are now behind the Chargers in the division. Favre put on a clinic this week as he threw 22/25, 213 Yards and 4 TDs as the Vikings won 35-9 over the Seahawks. This team looks really good as they own the NFC North right now. Pats beat the Jets 31-14 after their loss to the Colts. A solid performance from Brady while Sanchez threw one TD and 4 INTs. Giants snap their 4 game losing streak as they beat Atlanta barely 34-31. The Giants defense almost failed the team but the offense recovered to score in OT. Vince Young leads the Titans to their fourth win as they hang on to beat the Texans 20-17. Heart breaker for the Texans as they missed the field goal to tie the game leaving only a second left.

Good week overall as the weaker teams showed that they are not to be underestimated.

P.S. Niners lost to the Packers 30-24. Niners just couldn't stop the Packers from getting first downs on that last drive.
