Missed Your Fantasy Football Playoffs? Lina Posada Is Here To Help
After a long fought fantasy football season and you just missed the playoffs because Julio Jones is an average wide out or DeMarco Murray was hurt all year you deserve to look at the super sexy Lina Posada for the next few minutes. Video is below.
Nick Foles in; Mike Vick to the Bench?
Nick Foles ??? Mike Vick probably filed this one under “Wha, what, whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?”
Word out of Philadelphia is that the Eagles are prepared to bench starting Quarterback Michael Vick in favor of backup Nick Foles. Seriously. The Sporting News is reporting, “Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid hinted that a quarterback change would be coming if Michael Vick’s struggles continued. In the wake of the team’s 30-17 home loss to the Atlanta Falcons, Howard Eskin of Philadelphia television station WTXF Fox 29 reports Vick is likely to be benched in Week 9 in favor of rookie Nick Foles.
Although Vick didn’t commit a turnover in the loss to the Falcons, he threw for only 191 yards on 35 attempts. According to Eskin via Twitter, Reid has been unhappy with Vick continuously making mistakes on audibles and the lack of improvement from week to week.’
Say Hello to the hottest waiver wire pick up this week, ladies and gentlemen!
For the record, Foles did not play Ronald “Sunshine” Bass in Remember the Titans. From “Dream Team” to Nick Foles? Things are looking bleak in Philly, people!
NFL Top 10 Power Rankings – Week 7
| 2012 Power Rankings: Week 7 | ||||
| RANK | TEAM / RECORD | TRENDING | COMMENTS | |
| 1 |
Falcons
6-0 |
<->
|
Undefeated. Top Defense. Top Quarterback. Top TE. Top Wide Receivers. Universal #1 NFL Team through 6 weeks. | |
| 2 |
Texans
5-1 |
<->
|
No longer undefeated, the Texans are still damn good. The class of the AFC by far. | |
| 3 |
Ravens
5-1 |
V
|
Another elite AFC squad, the Ravens have suffered serious losses to their defense (Lewis &Webb) which makes their hold on the #3 spot shaky at best. Still, any team with Ray Rice, Torrie Smith, and Anquan Boldin has enough offensively to keep them as a top 10 squad all season. | |
| 4 | Bears 4-1 |
^ | Coming off two dominant performances against Dallas and Jacksonville, the “Monsters of the Midway” are looking to keep the good times rolling against rival Detroit on Monday night. Anchored by a ferocious defense and a beastly Brandon Marshall, Chicago is a force to be reckoned with in the NFC North. | |
| 5 |
49ers
4-2 |
V
|
Still featuring one of the scariest defenses in the league, the 49ers have | |
| 6 | Giants 4-2 |
^ | The G-Men put a beat down on the front running 49ers this week. Eli, Victor, Hakeem…they might sound like an 80′d r&b group but they are a dangerous trio. Factor in the overwhelming pass rush and the defending champs are looking good in week 7. | |
| 7 |
Seahawks
4-2 |
^
|
Another surprising NFC West team in the top 10? You better believe it. The Seahawks shocked the always deadly New England Patriots this week. Imagine how good they could be if Matt Flynn takes over the starting QB position as expected. Very, very solid. | |
| 8 | Vikings 4-2 |
v
|
Arguably the surprise of the year thus far, the Vikings took a bit of a tumble with a loss this week. Still, a solid defense, an improved Christian Ponder, and a healthy Adrian Peterson has Minnesota competing atop the NFC. | |
| 9 | Cardinals 4-2 |
<->
|
The Redbird’s may be playing over their heads and are our top candidate to drop out of the top 10 soon. While Arizona features a “tough as nails” defense, they easily operate the worst offense of any “elite” team. No quarterback, no running back…how exactly are they 4-2? | |
| 10 | Broncos 3-3 |
^
|
Did you tune out at halftime of the Sunday Night Football game? If so, you missed a virtuoso performance by the legend that is Peyton Manning. Four 2nd half TD’s helped Denver snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. With Eric Decker and Demaryious Thomas lighting up NFL secondaries, the Broncos are in good position to move up these rankings soon. | |
