With the New York Jets sitting atop this ignonimous pile, one can't help thinking the Cincinnati Bengals and Carson Palmer will get off the snide this week. But one will have to recall the Jets' PYA will be digesting the 426 yards effort of Kurt Warner and the Arizona Cardinals for the next three weeks. Just keep in mind the Jets rank 7th in Rushing Yards Against over the same three-game period.
Which Jay Cutler or Brandon Marshall owner doesn't see this list and drool? The Jacksonville Jaguars go to Denver with the 30th ranked PYA combined with the Broncos desire to throw at at costs means...head coach Mike Shannahan is going to run the ball. Even worse, he'll give it to Andre Hall and not the most widely-owned Michael Pittman.
In new head coach Tom Cable's first game as the Oakland Raiders' #2, he faces a poor Saints pass defense. Does Cable let QB JaMarcus Russell air it out and justify some of owner Al Davis' press conference? There could be a sneaky start here in Russell of TE Zach Miller.
