Lee Russakoff's ... With the best slate of Turkey games on tap possibly ever, I gotta say, FOX is killing the other networks when it comes to commercials. If CBS were smart, it would lock up Krazee-Eyez Killa ASAP.

31. St. Louis Ra... If Sam Bradford is the future, perhaps you shouldn’t play him until you can get some guys on the field to block for him.

30. Minnesota Vi... The Dilemma: Do you rush Peterson back and try to win as many as you can in 2011 or do you shut your franchise down and “play” for a better 2012 draft pick? If I were a Vikes fan, I’d vote the latter.

26. Kansas City ... OK, troops, here’s the defensive plan: Let’s try covering everyone but Rob Gronkowski. Offensively, I don’t know, why don’t we try like 38 three-yard passes?

23. Seattle Seah... How’d Seattle blow out the Rams? Forget Chris Clemmons. Clare Farnsworth has the angle: “Steven Jackson was coming off consecutive rushing performances of 159, 130 and 128 yards, and averaged 5.1 yards per carry as the Rams had won two of those games. Sunday, Jackson averaged 2.8 yards on 15 carries.”

14. Oakland Raid... I know you have to stick up for your team, Hue, but I don’t think you can play the “refs hate us because we’re from Oakland” card with a straight face. Also, can someone please explain to Mr. Jackson what football is? He seems to have forgotten.
