NFL Week Twelve, Update #1

• Saints 14, Falcons 6. Michael Vick has abandoned all pretense of trying to actually play the quarterback position as it was intended. He's 6-of-13 for 30 yards passing... but has run the ball 9 times for 127 yards. Whatever works, I suppose... except it doesn't really work. The Falcons trail 14-6.

• Ravens 17, Steelers 0. That sound you hear is the air being let out of what remained of the Steelers playoff hopes. Total yards are 215-36 in favor of the Ravens. Jamal Lewis is running the ball, Steve McNair is putting the ball wherever he wants... and Ben Roethlisberger was just nearly murdered by Bart Scott.

• Bengals 17, Browns 0. Look at this... offensive consitency from the Bengals. Carson Palmer's been on fire, completing 16-of-20 passes for 175 yards and a touchdown. And they've been doing it defensively, too, holding the Browns to 19 yards rushing on 8 carries.
