The New Orleans Saints go into Soldier Field and go from Start to Finish and beat the Bears 26-18 as Brees and Company controlled the game from the onset. Yes "90210" Cutler threw for 358 yards and Brees just 288 but don't tell me how many yards you threw for...were any of those yards meaningless or Fantasy Numbers? The Bears rushed for a combined 94 yards to the Saints 66 but Who Dat's Yards were of moving the chains and in the Red Zone as oppose to the Bears just getting yards. Bears 2nd year WR Alshon Jeffery went "Monsters on the Outside" grabbing ten Pigs for 218 yards and a score.  Saints TE Jimmy "Big Red of NOLA" grabbed ten for 135 yards as both players were one-man wrecking crews on exposing pass coverage. The Bears fall to 3-2 and they didn't get any Turnovers from the Defense who leads the NFL in Takeaways with 14. The Saints with that new and improved "D" are serious Contenders to the 49ers NFC Championship Throne.

In a "Battle of Top Flight 2nd-Year Signal-Callers" Andrew Luck of the Colts out dueled Seahawks QB Russell Wilson 34-28. As the Seahawks were up early 12-0 as Luck and "Blue Swagger" came roaring back. Both QBs were over 200 yards passing but they both battled against some tough hard-hitting defenses and yielded positive results. Seahawks RB "BEASTmode" Marshawn Lynch rushed for 102 yards on seventeen totes. Wilson also rushed for the same amount of yards on thirteen carries. The Colts new RB Trent Richardson rushed for 56 tough yards. The Star of this contest was Colts 2nd-year WR TY Hilton who had 140 yards receiving on five grabs and put two in the Seahawks End Zone. The Colts move atop the AFC South at 4-1 and the Seahawks still lead the NFC West at 4-1.  

Ravens get a heavy dose of RB Ray Rice in the Offense (27 carries 74 yards 2 TD) and Imagine that the Ravens beat the Dolphins 26-23. Ravens QB Joe Flacco was just under 270 yards passing but that Pick 6 to tie the game up in the 4th frame was ill-advised to say the least and Joe has to clean those  up. Dolphins QB Tannehill had a descent game as he threw for just over 300 yards but it was the Dolphins lack of a run game that spelled gloom and doom in this one. The Ravens ran for 133 yards and the Phins just 22...that is not going to get it done. WRs Torrey Smith of the Ravens and Mike Wallace of the Phins each had 100 yards receiving. The Ravens are tied with the Browns and Bengals at 3-2 in the AFC North. The Phins drop to 3-2 and a game back of the now 4-1 Pats in the AFC East.
