Week 11 in the NFL

Nick Russ here with your weekly dose of NFL.  If there were any doubts on how good the Giants are, they were erased on Sunday. The Giants trampled over the Ravens defense rushing for over 200 yards. No team had yet to even rush over 100 yards against Ray Lewis and Co. let alone 200. Brandon Jacobs had a 73 yards on 11 carries and 2 touchdowns but was stopped short due to a knee injury. Eli Manning went 13 for 23 with 153 yards and 1 touchdown. The Ravens aired it out most of the game. Joey Flacco went 20 for 33 with 164 yards and one touchdown. Flacco led the Ravens in rushing with 6 carries for 57 yards. With the Giants handling the Ravens quite well they establish themselves as the NFC contender. The Giants play in a now more interesting game at Arizona. The Ravens host a sputtering Philadelphia this week.

Phily is comes off of one of the oddest occurrences in foot ball, a tie. What was worse was QB Donovan McNabb's reaction to it. The man didn't even believe it was a rule in the book! The Eagles record at 5-4 is quickly becoming inadequate in the NFC East. With the tie against 

one of the worst in the NFL, the Phily Phans are starting to revert to their restless ways. This comes off of the Dallas victory against Washington. Tony Romo still had a taped finger but managed to throw 19 for 27 with 198 yards and one touchdown. He wasn't without his errors he threw 2 drive stopping picks. Marion Barber helped the Cowboys by rushing 24 for 114 yards with 1 touchdown. Clinton Portis surprised everyone by suiting up this week after many thought he would miss due to a sprained knee. Now its Washington's turn to pick up a win after dropping their last two. They visit Seattle while Dallas hosts the 49er's.

Over in the AFC The Colts have managed to look like their old selves after holding off a difficult Houston. The Colts ran up 474 total yards in the shoot out in the AFC South. Peyton Manning went 30 for 46 for 320 yards and 2 touchdowns. Joseph Addai carried the ball for 105 yards and 1 touch down and had one of the receiving touchdowns from Peyton marking Addai's best performance this season. The big stat for the Colts was 10-15 on third down conversions. The Texans had an equally impressive 356 yards in the game. In the end Houston's defense couldn't hold off the Colts who are starting to pick up steam. Else where in the AFC the Titans proved they can come from behind and win. Securing their undefeated season at Jacksonville, the Titans fell behind 14-3 at half but rallied behind QB Kerry Collins who went 13 for 23 and 230 yards and three touchdowns. The Titans rattled off 21 straight points on the way to their tenth victory. This week the Titans winning streak is at stake again this week as they host the resurgent Jets.
