Player of the Week: Chad "85" Johnson certainly made life easier for Drew Bledsoe this week, turning 3 of his 5 receptions into touchdowns and averaging over 36 yards per catch as Boston exploited the longball to lock up a playoff spot.
Playoff Picture: A big week in the Eastern Conference as 5 of 7 playoff berths were locked up after this week's results. No division titles claimed yet, but Washngton, Orlando, Nashville, Baltimore and Boston are all guaranteed at least 1 more week of play as they all lock up playoff spots. In the West, Chicago joins Michigan and Oakland as playoff teams as well. We now have 7 teams officially eliminated as well, with Birmingham, New Jersey, Texas and Los Angeles joining Jacksonville, Memphis, and St. Louis in that "honor".
