Week 11 Game Review- Part 2

I went 4-0 on this grouping of games.  The Atlanta-New York Giants game was an entertaining matchup.  I'll review it further below.

Seattle at Minnesota
The Vikings dominated this game.  Even backup Tavaris Jackson got into the act with a touchdown pass late in the game.  Minnesota was perfect in the red zone, gained over 210 more yards, went +2 in turnover differential, and held the ball for a whopping 24 additional minutes.  All in all, just another day in the office for the Vikings.

Atlanta at New York Giants
As I mentioned above, this was an entertaining game to watch.  The time of possession and turnover battles were even.  The Giants gained 100 more yards and generated more pressure on Matt Ryan, but the Falcons were better in the red zone, and were called on five fewer penalties.  Too bad one of these teams lost, because it was such a terrific game.

New Orleans at Tampa Bay
The Saints dominated this one, even with Drew Brees throwing for fewer than 200 yards.  It didn't matter.  The Saints were a perfect five for five in the red zone, gained 150 more yards, and forced four Tampa Bay turnovers.

Buffalo at Jacksonville
There was a Terrell Owens sighting yesterday, as he had nearly 200 yards receiving.  The Bills should have won this game.  They had a 30 yard advantage, but couldn't convert on their three red zone opportunities, while while the Jaguars scored two red zone touchdowns.
