Teams are beginning to jockey for playoff position as the 2013 NFL season reaches its eighth week. Here are five storylines we'll be watching this week:
Eli Manning passed for 200 yards and a touchdown, and the New York Giants shut down Adrian Peterson and the Minnesota Vikings, 23-7, in an error-plagued game in East Rutherford, N.J. on Monday night.
Sam Bradford was tabbed as the next big thing in the NFL when he was drafted first overall before the 2010 season. However, he has been anything but that after over three seasons in the league, and is out for the remainder of this season with a torn ACL. Is Bradford one of the biggest busts in NFL draft history?
Peyton Manning had a bittersweet homecoming in Indianapolis, and injuries to several key players could reshape the playoff picture. Here's what we learned in Week 7 of the 2013 NFL season:
He was one of the NFL's most distinctive coaches, and he was the first New Orleans Saints head coach to last more than two years with the team. Oail Andrew "Bum" Phillips passed away yesterday at the age of 90.
The athletic department at Grambling State University is in chaos after football players took a stand against the school's administration and refused to play this week's game against Jackson State.
Oregon is by far the most stylish team in college football. The Ducks, thanks to Nike, have a mind-blowing number of uniform combinations, each more eye-catching than the next. Now, the team has focused its attention on wearing a uniform for a cause, as it plans on sporting pink shoes, socks and helmets to raise funds for the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.
