PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Cam Newton does it again. Truly stunning numbers as Newton throws for 255 and a TD but also goes off for 170 yards rushing and another score, this one a 93-yard play that is just crazy to watch. Birmingham remains a game under .500 but Cam Newton is putting on a show nearly every week.
PLAYOFF PICTURE: Arizona becomes the fifth team to lock up a playoff berth, largely because they were the only one of the 4 Western squads who went into the weekend at 9-3 to actually win. That extra win locked them a place in the post-season. St. Louis also garnered a spot, despite their loss, as their superior W-L record within the conference means that none of the three 6-7 teams can suprass them. Believe it or not, Chicago remains the only team that is mathematically eliminated as even the 3-10 teams in the East still have a mathematical chance to snag that last Wild Card spot. It is a minimal chance but at least as of today it is still greater than 0%.
