Washington crushes N.O.!

It'd be a good game, that's for sure.

Post of the year, IMO.

If the 2 teams met at this point i wouldnt bet against the saints, especially at their place. But thats a far cry from thinking the vikings couldnt win either. I don't believe i've ever stated the vikings were better. I don't think there is as big a difference between the 2 teams as you would like to think. I think if the vikes could get them at home, that would certainly serve them well.

The most beautiful thing about the NFL is even a team like the Chiefs could beat the Saints. Heck, the Rams almost did it

Now, aimed at a fellow Packers fan or not, that was funny right there. I feel sympathy for LMITOUT, having been accused myself of trolling mindless blather by Vikings fans who see any pro-Packer/anti-Vikings statement (even if they are balanced and steeped in reality) as mindless trolling blather.

But it was still funny.

12-0 is 12-0.

Saints should be able to set it on cruise control now.

[BlueLundFishrman]

I think the Saints should not let up. They have a chance to make history this year and go undefeated.

All games will go through the Superdome this year in the play-offs...today's games pretty much set that in stone. If the Vikes are fortunate enough to play them, let's hope it's in the NFC Championship and I'll take our chances. Lot's of outcomes to be determined yet this year.

For fantasy football owners. I received this today from a fantasy football HSOforum about the strange play in the NO/Wash game yesterday. You may want to check your scoring and how this play was handled.

The Robert Meachem fumble recovery TD was an OFFENSIVE fumble recovery for a touchdown. It should not be treated as a defensive touchdown for purposes of team defense.

We need to recognize that this situation is rare – it happens about once every 6 years. It is not unheard of but it is uncommon. League management systems (like CBSSportsline, MyFantasyLeague, Fanball, etc…) are system driven – they have the ability to interface with the NFL boxscores and provide quick and accurate fantasy scores. However, once in a while, their systems do not recognize oddities like this.

The important thing here is to act in accordance to what your rules state. If all TDs are worth 6 points, then you should have 6 points awarded to Robert Meachem’s score for the week. You may need to add those points manually if your league management system does not do it for you. If your rules state specific TDs that are worth 6 points and offensive fumble recoveries are not one of them, then you should not count this TD.

If your rules permit Team Defense fumble recoveries for a TD as worth 6 points and your league management system awarded 6 points for this score, you may have to reduce that team’s score by 6 points. This is NOT a defensive TD.

Your league rules should be the basis for your decision. If your league management system scores a play inconsistent with your league rules, then your Commissioner should make a manual adjustment so that the recorded score is consistent with your league rules.

If you do not like the way your league rules handled this situation, then address it in the offseason – not now. Leagues should not be holding a vote to see how this matter should be resolved.
