Carolina at Arizona
As I hinted above, turnovers were the difference in the ball game. The yards were similar, and Arizona was a perfect three for three in the red zone, while the Panthers were just 50%. Delhomme did get injured, which could be a good or bad thing for them, as he's thrown 13 picks on the season. Kurt Warner has to improve if the Cardinals want to return to the Super Bowl.
Minnesota at Green Bay
The total yards was the only stat that was close in this game. Minnesota did a much better job at protecting Brett Favre, and sacked Aaron Rodgers six times. They were +2 in the turnover department, and were 80% in the red zone.
Atlanta at New Orleans
Another close game between division rivals. Both teams did a good job at harassing the opposing quarterback, and moved the ball well on their opponent. Atlanta actually won the turnover battle at +1, were ineffective in the red zone. They were just 25%, while the Saints were 75%, and that was the difference in the ball game.
