Will Chris Johnson run for 300 yards against the Rams on Sunday – and how bummed about this matchup is the person who has to face UCSB women’s basketball coach Lindsay Gottlieb in the first round of their fantasy-league playoffs?

Pro Football Weekly - down two to #19.

Turnovers have been big problems in losses.

CBS Sportsline - down two to #19.

Their winning streak was ended by the Colts, but they aren't dead yet. The schedule is favorable down the stretch.

Fox Sports - stays at #16.

Reality bites at 5-7 with their surprising five-game win streak squashed at Indy. But the Titans were a couple plays from being neck-and-neck with the Colts last week — i.e. why do teams get so fourth-down happy?

The Sporting News's Power Poll - down three to #19.

QB Vince Young finally ran out of magic against the Colts. So far, everyone else has, too.

Vince Young did not run out of magic. He actually played a pretty decent game, but he doesn’t play on the defense.

I know the defense gave up 27 points

but you can’t solely blame them for the loss. The offense had plenty of chances.

Vince also doesn't catch the football.

Wait, neither does Nate Washington, nevermind.

One thing Fisher and I agree on.

Vince played well enough to win.

Not to put too much on one play,

but I gotta think that if Nate had caught the long ball for a TD, the whole game could have come out differently. It hit him on the hands in stride. What else does he need???
