OKC's roll

     Oklahoma City is now on a roll winning 9 in a row. KD had 35 and 8 last night when the Thunder defeated New Orleans. OKC is now 18-4 and has a 12-2 record at home.

NFL MVP Race

With a huge win over Mega-Watt's and the Texans defense, Tom Brady seems to have the lead in the MVP race. His dismantling of the Texans (296 yards, 4 TD's, no interceptions) Set the table as he was far more impressive than Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Adrian Peterson, and maybe even a defensive player like Watt, Aldon Smith, or Von Miller that could possibly be in the running for the MVP. With 3 regular season games left Tom Brady has the highest passer rating at 104.2. He has more passing yards than Manning and Rodgers. Really, the only place where Rodgers and Manning have outdone Tom is completion percentage. But there lead is washed out because they've both thrown more picks than Tom. If Tom plays nearly as good as he did against the Texans. The other hopefuls will have a hard time catching up. There teams record could play a factor too, so Adrian might have just a little bit of a harder time making his way to the top.

As you can see It's still a very close race to get into the playoffs. The Redskins are 7-6 one game out of the Division and wild Card. That is the same with the Cowboys. Another surprising thing is that the Jets are only one game out of the playoffs and the Browns could still make the playoffs this late in the year. So far the Texans, Patriots, Broncos, and the Falcons have clinched the playoffs but the rest is just a Dog Pile.
