| after last season's miserable performance led head coach Mike McCarthy to replace most of his defensive assistants. The Packers have been causing turnovers and stopping the run fairly well all year. And after two ugly losses to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings, their pass rush is beginning to come around and they're coming up with more stops on third down. Players say they're simply getting more comfortable with Capers' 3-4 scheme. ``Everybody's getting used to each other, trusting each other, knowing |

| the NFC South Division. New Orleans needs only a win or tie at Washington, or one more loss or tie by second-place Atlanta. It isn't yet clear how much will be riding on New Orleans' last couple games. Much will depend on whether the race with the Minnesota Vikings (10-1) for the NFC's top overall seed remains tight by then. If not, head coach Sean Payton could start resting his starters more. Certainly, the Saints would like to match the first ever 16-0 regular season accomplished by the 2007 Patriots, but |

| (MySportsbook) - If anyone following the 2009 edition of the Chicago Bears had held off in writing those postmortems, Sunday's 36-10 loss at the Minnesota Vikings likely cured them of that reticence. Now 4-7, it is pretty clear what these Bears are. A team that lost its soul when defensive leader Brian Urlacher was sidelined for the season with a Week 1 wrist injury, and has not displayed nearly the playmaking acumen that was formally the franchise's defensive hallmark. A team that counted way too much on a m |

That's when their mother, Doris, decided they should move in with their father, Buddy, who was then a coach on the Minnesota Vikings' staff. Rex Ryan is heading back to the city where he spent his formative years Thursday when the Jets take on the Buffalo Bills at the Rogers Centre. ``Toronto is a great town,'' he said. ``I never thought I'd see the day where the NFL would be |

| Minneapolis, MN (MySportsbook) - Brett Favre had another terrific performance, throwing three touchdowns passes, as the Minnesota Vikings rolled over the Chicago Bears, 36-10, at the Metrodome. Favre ended with a season-high 392 yards on 32-of-48 attempts for the Vikings, who are 10-1 for the first time since 1998. Despite some ball security issues, Adrian Peterson rushed for 85 yards and one touchdown on 25 carries. The dangerous running back fumbled twice, losing the ball once. "When I tell people that I'm |

Minnesota will try to inch closer to its second straight NFC North title, as well as posting its first 10-1 start in 11 years, in this Sunday's matchup with fading Chicago at the Metrodome. Thanks to running back Adrian Peterson and what was expected to be a solid defensive group, the Vikings were already in the possible ch |

The lowest point may have come in the team's most recent outing, a 35-9 shellacking by the powerful Minnesota Vikings in which Seattle mustered a franchise-worst four rushing yards. The defense was equally as lousy, with the submissive Seahawks allowing the ageless Brett Favre to complete 22-of-25 passes and throw for four touchdowns. Seattle has now lost all five |
