Now they’re explains the team about vultures retells that needs to fight their way out of mediocrity 19. Tennessee Titans (4-6) You just can’t say enough about the resilience of this Titans team. Vince Young is definitely in the running for Comeback Player of the Year award, and Chris Johnson is strongly urging everyone to second-guessanointing Adrian Peterson as the best running back in the league 20. New York Jets (4-6) Mark Sanchez can’t be benched, but clearly he can’t be coached, either That, or whoever is coaching him isn’t doing his job. If the kid just settles down and limits the mistakes, this is still a good football team Still, it’s hard not to like his (and the Jets) future 21. San Francisco 49ers (4-6) Alex Smith may have ignited a fire in this offense, and contrary to popular belief, he still is not the issue.

This defense is not as good as it was in the first four weeks, and it’s clear they’re still a year or two away from the playoffs 22 . Carolina Panthers (4-6) We’ve learned over the past few weeks that Jake Delhomme can manage games just fine if his team backs him and his running game is on fire african vultures . But when the game has to be in his hands, he’s among the league’s worst.23 birds of prey . Chicago Bears (4-6) People will continue to lay the blame on Jay Cutler, but until this offensive line figures out how to protect him and move the ball on the ground, this team will just keep losing games It doesn’t get any easier against Minnesota this week 24 buzzard . Kansas City Chiefs (3-7) As I said last week, this team has all the makings of a late-season run, and could be very competitive next year. Matt Cassel looked more comfortable in Week 11, which is very scary for the rest of the league considering his opponent 25. Seattle Seahawks (3-7) We knew the Vikings were the better team, but their offensive effort was just pitiful.

I’m starting to really question the big-money Seattle invested in T.J.Houshmandzadeh . On a lighter note, is that Justin Forsett kid good, or what? 26 buzzards vultures . Buffalo Bills (3-7) Dick Jauron is fired and Ryan Fitzpatrick is the starting quarterback, yet nothing has truly changed in Buffalo At least T.O put on a show for one game this season 27 Oakland Raiders (3-7) Good-bye, JaMarcus Russell circling vultures . I know Bruce Gradkowski probably isn’t the long-term solution in Oakland (or anywhere else), but what he did on Sunday was show Al Davis what a competent quarterback with average skills can do 28 . Washington Redskins (3-7) They led for the entire game and fought hard, despite losing yet another player to injury How much more bad luck can this team handle? 29 St. Louis Rams (1-9) The Rams continue to play hard, and they’re playing the game the right way.
