Upon Further Review…

...It is pretty funny, after all.  Just ask Derek Anderson.  He woke up to the reality that he’s a member of the Arizona Cardinals.  You’d laugh too.

...Cortland Finnegan is an idiot. And the NFL is getting rich off of these fines.  $25,000 each for Johnson and Finnegan’s throw-down, but I say it shouldn’t be as much about the players as the kids who are watching.  Sit those players for a week and you send a message that this kind of poor sportsmanship is not condoned.

...Maybe mid-season coaching changes aren’t such a bad idea.  The popular thinking is that they don’t work.  Don’t tell the Cowboys and the Vikings that. 

...Jon Gruden is not going to the University of Miami.  How many times does he have to say that he’s not leaving Monday Night Football?  Wait… the Cowboys are on line one?  He’ll take that call.

...Sabby Piscitelli is a Cleveland Brown?  Yep, we love you Sabby.  If we didn’t, we’d have traded you to Buffalo before the trade deadline passed.  America, get ready to meet another Bucs safety named Lynch!

...Deja-vu?  Brett says he’s going to retire.  No, really this time.  But his wife would rather have him practicing and playing football.  She’s noticed that when he’s laying around the house his texting bill goes through the roof.

...Spygate in Denver.  Pat Bowlen says that Coach McDaniels is safe.  What will the Commish do?  Broncos fans are hoping the league extinguishes Josh’s torch and puts him off the island.

And it’s time for this week’s picks.  Major upsets this week.  You ready?  Cavs over Heat. Eagles over Texans; Bengals over Saints; Bears over Lions; Packers over Niners; Titans over Jags; Chiefs over Broncos; Dolphins over Browns; Vikes over Bills; Giants over Redskins; Bucs over Falcons; Chargers over Raiders; Rams over Cardinals (in a laugher); Seahawks over Panthers; Colts over Cowboys; Ravens over Steelers; Patriots over Jets.
