Happy Halloween!  It's time for a Trick or Treat edition of The Top of the Bottom!  Let's see who's getting a nice treat and who will be throwing sideline tantrums!

 

#1   Jacksonville Jaguars         0-8

#2   Tampa Bay Buccaneers    0-7

#3 Minnesota Vikings             1-6

#4   New York Giants                2-6

#5   Huston Texans                  2-5

#6   Pittsburgh Steelers            2-5

#7   Washington Redskins        2-5

#8   Atlanta Falcons                  2-5

#9   Buffalo Bills                        3-5

#10 Cleveland Browns              3-5

 

Teams Dropping out of the Top 10: Oakland

 

First we must bid a fond adieu to the Raiders, who plummeted off the chart with a win over the weekend.  But as one team leaves, one must arrive; so welcome to the list Cleveland!.  The Browns enter in at the bottom of the list, but at only 3 games back they have a chance to make up for Brian Hoyer's winning ways.  Outside of that not much excitement other then Minnesota climbing up into the top three after the Giants fail to lose to the Eagles.  It should be noted though that there are a handful of teams breathing down the necks of the ninth and tenth place teams; mere percentage points separate them!  Will we see massive shakeups coming?  Will there be a new #1?  Tune in next week to find out!

 

But for now Jacksonville keeps their stranglehold on The Top of the Bottom!

To continue the theme of NFL players dressing up for Halloween, Christian Ponder wins the day by first having great taste in movies (ie The Sandlot) and second convincing his hot wife, Samantha Steele, to dress up like Wendy Peffercorn, star of the most puberty-inducing pool scene since Phoebe Cates in Fast Times.

Ponder is truly the epitome of the saying, "Sucks At Sports, Wins At Life."

The first was in 1989. The Minnesota Vikings beat the Los Angeles Rams 23-21 when Mike Merriweather blocked Dale Hatcher's punt and the ball rolled out of the end zone.

The second time was in 2004. Alex Brown (Chicago Bears) sacked Billy Volek (Tennessee Titans) in the end zone and knocked the ball loose. Tennessee tackle Fred Miller recovered the ball, but was tackled by Adewale Ogunleye for a safety to give the Bears a 19-17 overtime win over the Titans.

I have a feeling there was a safety in an OT game within the last 3 years, but I can't remember where and am too lazy to look.

Bears over Titans in 2004.  Billy Volek got sacked and fumbled, the Titans recovered in the end zone
