Indianapolis and New Orleans stayed unbeaten Sunday to go 10-0.
What do they have that the Bears don’t? Stud No. 1 receivers that give their quarterbacks big targets. Oh, and no L’s, among other things.
Head games
The NFL is going to work with independent neurologists to address the league’s concussion issues. Maybe they should examine Bill Belichick’s head after that call to go for it on fourth down last week vs. Indianapolis with a chance to give the Colts their first loss of the season.
STUD OF THE WEEK
Matthew Stafford
It might sound like an oxymoron, but a Detroit player can be a stud. The rookie quarterback passed for 422 yards and five touchdowns in the Lions’ second win of the year. Hear him roar.
DUD OF THE WEEK
T.J. Houshmandzadeh
The receiver with the unpronounceable name was supposed to soar for the Seahawks. Instead, he’s a sore spot. Forced pun fail?
THUD OF THE WEEK
Ben Roethlisberger
Big Ben took a big hit and was knocked out of the game vs. Kansas City. Charlie Batch came in, and the Steelers lost in OT. You could say he Batched it.
MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Houston vs. Tennessee
7:30 p.m. ESPN
This could be the Johnson and Johnson Show: Houston’s Andre and Tennessee’s Chris.
