PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Daunte Culpepper is on a tear, with Week 11 sizing up as his best game in several years. Culpepper and the Bandits exploited the defense all game long, with the QB throwing for over 430 yards on fewer than 20 attempts. Throw in 5 TD passes and you have the formula for a huge win and a sense of confidence as the Bandits fight for a playoff spot.
PLAYOFF PICTURE: Five weeks left and we are just now reaching the edge of when clubs might start clinching spots. Arizona has exactly a 5-game advantage over the 6th and 7th place clubs, so one more win will clinch it for them. The other clubs need a bit more, of course, but as of right now it is looking very good for Philly, Washington, Oakland and Chicago. No teams have been eliminated as of yet, but, as you might expect, the 2-win clubs, Jacksonville and Dallas, are getting very close to making it official.
