With the NFL approaching the halfway point of the 2012 season, division races are beginning to take shape, as teams anticipate the second half of their schedule. Here's a preview of this week's action:
One of my all-time favorite NFL quarterbacks is Doug Flutie. Even at a height of 5'10", Flutie could throw the long one, rush for that first down and score touchdowns. I saw him play in person a few times when he was quarterback for the Bufffalo Bills. Flutie will always be remembered for that incredible "Hail Mary Pass" as QB for Boston College in a win against the Miami Hurricanes. Currently, you can see Doug Flutie as a college football TV analyst for NBC Sports. And, I own a few boxes of "Flutie Flakes" breakfast cereal, of which proceeds went to the Doug Flutie, Jr. Foundation For Autism.
Brian Urlacher and D.J. Moore each collected turnovers to stifle potential second-half touchdown drives, and the Chicago Bears beat the Detroit Lions, 13-7, in Chicago on Monday night.
Week 7 of the NFL season saw another injury to a big name running back and could have an effect on your fantasy team.
