PLAYER OF THE WEEK: The Blitz-Dragons game produced two of the best QB performances we have ever seen, with both Byron Leftwich and Ben Roethlisberger just going off against each other's defenses. But we have to give the award to Big Ben for the just staggering total of 562 yards passing. Yes, Leftwich had 5 TDs to Ben's 4, but you don't put up that many yards, get the win in overtime, and not win POTW.
PLAYOFF PICTURE: The Eastern Conference locked in their slate of playoff teams, though 2 of 3 divisions remain to be decided. Texas also becomes the first team in the West to lock up a spot. Atlanta and Charlotte became the 5th and 6th club in the East to secure their spots, meaning that all 8 other clubs in the conference are now eliminated. In the West, 5 slots remain open and 8 teams remain mathematically alive, with Las Vegas, Ohio, and Seattle all needing some help to jump into the Top 6.
