Well, that Packers game was fun but the sobering thought is that the Saints still need to win all five of their remaining games or at least four of five for any hopes at the playoffs. Games squandered earlier in the year are now brought into sharp focus. Tough one in Tampa this week.
One of my fantasy football teams has made the playoffs. Another win will earn them a bye. My other fantasy football team, the one I thought was better at the beginning of the year, needs to win, score a lot of points, and hope the right combination of tiebreakers happens. Uphill to say the least.
Ole Miss pretty much finished off any hopes LSU had of going to a New Year's Day bowl game. Been a tough season for a program that has gotten used to double digit wins every year. Most, but surely not all, of their problems stem from inexperience at quarterback.

Quote from said blog: "I looked back as far as the 2001 season and I still don't know the last time the Packers allowed over 50 points. It was too depressing to go back any further. But if you think this game was awful, a true sign the team doesn't have it this season, well here's some recent history."
