Hm, I'm surprised that Derrick Mason got in. I selected Santana Moss as #4 for the AFC.

Two NE players: Richard Seymour and Ty Law.
The AFC QB competition is a tough one. Besides, NE is more a team without any real individual show stealer.

Week 16 eh... the business end of the season.
ATL @ TB: Vick is still sore after the Carolina game and that beating handed to him by the Colts D. Bucs lose McKay during the week, should be no problem though. Still fighting for their play-off lives, but barely.
TB wins by 14.
KC @ MIN: With Priest Holmes, the Chiefs are always tough to beat, but that leaky run defense is a hard blemish to ignore. Luckily, Moe Williams is only 24th in the run standings, so KC should take this one.
KC by 7
NE @ NJJ: New Jersey is snowy, cold, and a frozen tundra this time of year, though a team who play in New England should be no strangers to a blizzard. The Patriots keep proving they know how to avoid a letdown, and their Week 16 clash with the New Jersey Jets should be no exception.
BAL @ CLE: Cleveland are a dead stick, in controversy. They lack numbers, wins, names. Ironically, this is the orignal Cleveland Browns franchise versus the expansion Cleveland Browns. After last week's performance, you have to ask if the Old Browns are contenders or pretenders. They should get by the New Browns, however
Old Browns by 7
CIN @ STL: Figure the Rams to again be pushed to the limit against the explosive Bengals. Of possible playoff clubs, the Bengals are by far the most intriguing. This will be interesting, but the Bengals need to start winning on the road to have any chance in the Playoffs.
Sheep by 3
DET @ CAR: Carolina are in the play-offs, but have no chance of making the Week One bye. The Panthers have a division title, but how much momentum do they really take into the playoffs? However, they should pick up the win against a bad Lions team.
CAR to beat Car City by 14
MIA @ BUF: The December curse is coming alive, again. Expect to see New York State's only franchise to pile the points, and the snow, on a Miami team which is a poor team, all around.
Buffalo beat Marine Mammals by 3
NO @ JAX: I like the look of Jacksonville. They could be in with a shout next season. But this is this season, and the Saints' play-off hopes are on life support after their blowout against New Jersey Giants. Coupled with a Vikings loss, a Green Bay loss and a Bucaneers loss, the Saints could sneak up the rankings. Don't count on it though.
NO by 10
NJG @ DAL: The lone star team face the geographically mis-orientated New Jersey Giants. Now that the Cowboys' confidence has been restored, they have a chance to string together a couple of victories in their pursuit of a postseason berth. The Giants are expected to start young Jesse Palmer again, who showed glimpses of a good player in a poor perfromace against the Saints
Cowpats by 20.
TEN @ HST: The flaming thumbtacks take on the Houston Cows in an AFC South matchup. Injuries have plagued both teams, with McNair expected to sit again, but Carr coming back for the hapless Texans. With no Billy Volek to turn to, the Titans are back to hoping Steve McNair can push his aching body through the rest of the season and the playoffs. The Cows could spring an upset.
TEN by 3
WAS @ CHI: **** Jauron is fighting for his job, aided by a last gasp victory over the the Purple People in Week 15. Their rookie QB looked solid, though without big numbers, in Week 16. The Indigenous Persons' can't claim to have had success filling their QB spot, with Hasselbeck Jr. (the only NFL QB with a wife more famous than he is) having a near 0 passer rating versus Dallas.
CHI by 7.
SD @ PIT (Game of the Weak): Two teams with bad QBs. Maddox was overrated last season, and Brees hasn't a good number to his name. And with a bad OL, a bad QB situation, we all forget what a brilliant talent LaDanian Tomlinson is. A shame he's wasted at a bad franchise.
SD by 3
ARZ @ SEA: The only good thing Arizona brings to the NFL is that the NFC West gets an automatic 2 wins to begin the season. This is a BAD BAD BAD football team.
Seattle by 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999.
SF @ PHI: The class of the NFC is bearing down on a second crack at home-field advantage in the playoffs -- and the chance to get it right this time. They should beat a hapless 49ers team who can't win on the road
PHI by 14
DEN @ IND (My Game of the Week): It looks as if Peyton Manning has seized the opportunity to pull ahead in MVP voting. They are chasing Home-Field and will take it if KC stumble at the Purple People and they beat the Broncs in Indy. Although the Broncos don't expect to be without Clinton Portis for an extended period, losing him for just one game could be costly, and Indianapolis has the 3rd best Passing defence in the NFL.
IND by 7
GB @ OAK (MNF): And to wrap up a Week 16 preview, Monday Night Football from Oakland. As long as the Vikings insist on leaving the NFC North title up for grabs, the Packers are going to grab it. Oakland are coming off a big win versus Baltimore, and could continue the spoiler role against a banged-up Favre and a rolling Ahman Green.

Near 0?
I ran his stats through a calculator, and the outcome was -34.2.

Passing. Not quarterbacking.
