This is going to be an ugly game for the Bengals. They were struggling to protect when they had their starters in the game, and now their backups come in; this could go from bad to worse.

When I watch tape, I feel that there have been a couple of clear factors that have helped the Jets. The first is that they know Brett Favre as a player, they know a little more about how he fits into what they need and what they want to become on offense.

The Bears are built to win with defense and special teams, and when they give up 34 points in a game, they are not going to win. The Bears on defense is a huge concern, and each week you never know what you will get from them.

I did not like the body language of Jack Del Rio on the sidelines yesterday. He seems very disgusted with his team right now.

But the Jets showed toughness and seized the moment when they had the opportunity. They fought and even though they let the Pats back in the game, they came back to make the plays in overtime.

One thing about the Parcells/Sparano program is that there is never any warm and fuzzy love. In fact, they behave the opposite of most teams in the NFL; they never exaggerate the wins and they forget about the losses.

The mark of a great team is when your star player does not play his best and your team is still able to win. And that is what makes me so frustrated with Philadelphia’s attitude after the game. They were completely dominated, and Eli did not even play well.

Orton won’t play unless the team doctors give him medical clearance to play. This is not his call at all, and if he does get back on the field to practice this week, he will have to prove to the coaches and trainers that he can handle the pressure and react without any problems.

Have you ever seen a game where a team challenged two plays in a row? The first challenge was just a waste of a time and I’d like to know who in the box would have told Reid to make that call?

This seems like a turf battle and De Rio is going to need to call upon all of his leadership skills to deal with the Petersen situation and how it affects the rest of the team. To me, the bigger issue here is the view from the locker room and how the players seem to deal with the decisions that are being made.
