Week 4 in the NFL treated us to some wild finishes and some ugly injuries.

Let’s review Sunday’s action.

NEED MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL SELECTIONS? OUR CAPPERS HAVE YOUR BACK —–>

Falcons 16, 49ers 14

The San Francisco 49ers died a slow death in this one, flying out to a 14-0 lead only to go scoreless over the final three quarters as the Falcons slowly chipped away at the lead. Though Mike Singletary could (should?) lose his job any day now, the crazy thing is that San Francisco is still just two games back of first in the woeful NFC West.

Jets 38, Bills 14

There shouldn’t be any more doubt that the Bills are football’s worst team. The latest guy to terrorize them: Mr. LaDainian Tomlinson. He continued to turn back the clock on Sunday, running for 133 yards and two scores. Cool.

Ravens 17, Steelers 14

We had to assume the Steelers would get complacent. Starting 3-0 without Ben Roethlisberger meant they were playing with the house’s money. So it makes sense that the healthier Ravens took them down. How about that game-winning drive by the poised Joe Flacco late in the fourth quarter?

Saints 16, Panthers 14

It certainly wasn’t pretty but the Saints ground out a home win over the Panthers. Interestingly enough, the Saints ran the ball just fine without Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush, totalling 121 yards on the ground. It was a welcome sight for the Panthers to see DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart each find the end zone in the loss.

Browns 23, Bengals 20

For shame, Cincinnati. No excuse for this loss – especially since Terrell Owens went off for 10 catches and 222 yards. The story for the Browns was once again Peyton Hillis, who posted his second straight 100-yard game.

Packers 28, Lions 26

This may have been the day’s oddest game. Shaun Hill threw for 300-plus yards; Aaron Rodgers attempted only 17 passes; the Lions had the ball for 37 minutes compared to 22 for Green Bay. Yet the Pack still held on for the win, with Charles Woodson’s pick-six return being the key.

Rams 20, Seahawks 3

Are the Seahawks the NFL’s wimpiest team? They’re just so…spineless on the road. We can safely say we shouldn’t bet on them at all for the rest of the year unless they’re at home. And how about that Sam Bradford for St. Louis? The kid looks like a three-year vet already.

Jaguars 31, Colts 28

Let’s hope Josh Scobee partied hard and got his teammates to carry him on their shoulders after winning this one with a 59-yard boot. Kickers are so often maligned for their misses that they should cherish the moments when they’re on top.

Texans 31, Raiders 24

Cool story here. Arian Foster opens the afternoon on the bench after missing a team meeting, then enters the game running like a bat out of hell, running for 131 yards and scoring two second-half touchdowns.

Chargers 41, Cardinals 10

You could see this beating coming a mile away. The Chargers we sure to come out angry after Leon Washington singlehandedly stole a win from them at Seattle the week before.

Redskins 17, Eagles 12

What was supposed to be the week’s most exciting matchup was a real dud. Three and a half hours of check downs, injuries and penalties. Donovan McNabb was on a high after the Philly fans gave him a standing ovation; Michael Vick wasn’t so lucky, as he took a nasty shot to the midsection and will get an MRI today. Kevin Kolb looked like Trent Edwards 2.0 in relief so the Eagles desperately need Vick to be OK.

Giants 17, Bears 3

This was another wacky game. Jay Cutler got sacked nine times before leaving with a concussion – in the second quarter. The Giants totalled 10 sacks and even injured Bears second-string quarterback Todd Collins. The Bears are 3-1 but their Week 1-victory came when Calvin Johnson’s touchdown was unfairly nixed and their Week 3 win came when the Packers took their most penalties in several decades. You have to wonder if the Monsters of the Midway are pretenders now. Their O-line could be the NFL’s worst.
