Past, Present And Future Football Action
Brett Favre joined Dan Marino as the only quarterbacks in NFL history to throw for 60,000 yards during the Packers' 34-0 shellacking of the Vikings today. (Yes! I started the GB defense this week!)

Budweiser's Right: The Browns Are So Good They Don't Even Need A Logo
Gus Johnson, calling that exhilarating Bills-Fins game today, just got done saying before the half that he thinks the Steelers are being slept on and that they could easily hang with the Patriots or Colts. DA says, "Suck on my Horse Balls, Gussy!" Browns 21, Steelers 9...
Settin' The One O'Clock NFL Table
Minnesota at Green Bay, FOX Last week, rookie sensation Adrian Peterson broke the single-game rushing record, picking up 296 yards and three touchdowns against the Bolts.

• Florida 51, South Carolina 31 — Tim Tebow accounted for seven touchdowns (!), five of them rushing (!), and 424 total yards (!) as the No. 17 Gators destroyed the Cocks.
