Jets spoil Titans' perfect season

The New York Jets defeated the Tennessee Titans 34-13, to remain the leader in the AFC East division race. As I predicted, the Titans finally went down. They were bound to lose eventually, and why not to what is arguably a top 5 team in the NFL. After seeing this, I admit I made a few mistakes in my forecast. I was mistaken to consider the Jets a wild card team. The Jets have clearly shown enough talent to be a Super Bowl threat. They showed it on Sunday. The Titans have what is arguably the NFL's toughest defense. Yet the Jets were somehow able to put 34 points on the board. The Jets have scored more points than any team in the AFC.

Browns defeat Bills

The Cleveland Browns defeated the Buffalo Bills on Monday night, after a missed field goal attempt. Two words continue to haunt Bills fans: "wide right!"

Lions Fall to 0-10

They seem to look better every game. Yet, every time, they somehow fall. The Detroit Lions lost to the Carolina Panthers 31-22 on Sunday. It looked good. The Lions, trailing 24-16, led a drive downfield for a touchdown. It looked as if they might win. They missed the two-point conversion, but then forced a three-and-out. Then, almost immediately, Daunte Culpepper threw an interception which ultimately led to another Panthers touchdown. Two games, and this guy looks like he already Lionized. To become a Lion, or "Lionize" one must do good, but then terrible in quarter 4.
Okay, back to the loss. With that defeat, our Lions are now 0-10, so, once again, we must ask ourselves: Will they lose all 16? I'd still say no. Time is running out, but the Lions will win somehow. 6 games are plenty. Maybe they'll play better. Maybe they'll be overlooked. Maybe they'll get lucky. However, the odds are starting to change. Right now I'd say they are about 70-30, with 70 being the chance of winning one. This is the Lions, though.

Tigers likely to raise prices

What are they thinking? Shortly after a highly disappointing season, our Tigers decided that they would raise their ticket prices. The economy is terrible right now, and it's not like the tickets are in high demand anymore. The Tigers have gone crazy. They will not sell nearly as many tickets as last year. It's a good thing FSN shows games regardless of sellouts, because otherwise the Tigers would be likely to be blacked out for every home game this year.

Melrose Fired
