Philadelphia Eagles-34
Atlanta Falcons-7
In Mike Vick's return to Atlanta, he scored twice (1 pass, 1 rush) and the defense smothered Chris Redman to move the Eagles to 8-4 and in a tie with the Cowboys for first in the East.

St. Louis Rams-9
Chicago Bears-17
Jay Cutler did NOT throw an interception and held on to defeat the one win Rams at home. Steven Jackson again rushed for over 100 yards...absolute warrior.

Detroit Lions-13
Cincinnati Bengals-23
The Bengals D picked off Matthew Stafford twice, taking one back for a score, then knocked him out of the game to ensure their second winning season in the last 19 years.

Tennessee Titans-17
Indianapolis Colts-27
The Colts remained undefeated thanks to 2 Joseph Addai touchdown runs and superb red-zone defense.

Denver Broncos-44

The Broncos completely stampeded the Chiefs at Arrowhead behind a balanced rushing attack where Correll Buckhalter rushed for over 100 yards and Knowshown Moreno reached paydirt twice.

New England Patriots-21
Miami Dolphins-22
The Pats blew another game thanks to missed 4th down conversions. Another big game by Brady that included a 58-yard TD to Randy Moss and an 81-yard TD to Sam Aiken ultimately came up short as Brady also threw 2 costly interceptions in the 4th quarter.

Oakland Raiders-27
Pittsburgh Steelers-24
The Steelers were up 24-20 and the Raiders had the ball with less than 2 minutes left at home...AND LOST. The Raiders handed the Steelers their 4th straight loss dropping the defending champs to 6-6. Louis Murphy had a surprisingly useful fantasy day with 128 yards and 2 TDs.

New Orleans Saints-33

Dallas Cowboys-24
New York Giants-31
