It's Sunday, and that means it's time for some NFL football. Some good football, unlike the schlock we were forced to watch yesterday night.

Plus, fantasy football playoffs are happening. So if you're in a playoff match, this will all be interesting.

Early Games:

Cincinnati Bengals @ St. Louis Rams
Okay, so, this game is still going to suck. The Bengals aren't the greatest team, but they've been pretty solid. The Rams have been absolutely horrible, and they will be forced to miss Sam Bradford in this game, too.

New Orleans Saints @ Minnesota Vikings
Can you say blowout? I can. But it'll be fun to see if Jared Allen can break Michael Strahan's somewhat fake sack record.

Green Bay Packers @ Kansas City Chiefs
Can the Chiefs beat the unbeaten Packers? No.

Seattle Seahawks @ Chicago Bears
This should actually be a good and evenly matched game. Both teams have good defenses, a solid running game, and an incompetent passing game. And they're both fighting for playoff spots.

Tennessee Titans @ Indianapolis Colts
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Washington Redskins @ New York Giants
The Redskins suck, the Giants need to win to be in the hunt for a playoff spot.

Carolina Panthers @ Houston Texans
Cam Newton is exciting, but the Texans' running game is going to kill this Carolina defense.

Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills
Blargh.
