I have thrown my arms into the air! Everything that I expect to happen every week does not. The amounts of upsets this year are amazing, and even games that the favorite wins are too close for comfort. I feel that this year's NFL is filled with Great teams and teams that are bad. Every week though, a couple bad teams show a spark and make you wonder...

This week's surprise for me had to have been the Minnesota Vikings beating the New York Giants by a large margin. I did not watch this game, but when I saw the score, I had to go look how the Vikings were able to score 41 points. It was even more shocking to see that only 20 points (2 TDs, 2 FGs) came from the offensive side. Eli Manning threw 4 interceptions, and had 3 of them run back for touchdowns. I have never seen a defense outscore their offense!

Neither offense deserves any praise. Their numbers were lack-luster. It was a defensive battle, but who has ever heard of a defensive battle that has 58 total points scored? The game ball this week deserves to go to the outstanding play of their defense!
