Perfect Season No Longer: Jets Beat Colts 29-15

Remember when the Saints and Colts were both undefeated, and it seemed as if neither team would back down? Well, they finally have, and both teams experienced upsets this past weekend against teams they were predicted to beat. A loss was not completely foreign to the Saints (who lost to the Buccaneers 17-20), as they endured their first disappointment of the season two weeks ago when they played the Cowboys. This was, however, the first loss for the Colts, who have already bucked their way into home field advantage for the playoffs.

The Powerful Vikings also experienced an unexpected upset against the Bears last night. What have these 3 teams shown us? That no team is perfect, regardless of how many wins they secure. This is something the Patriots proved 2 years ago when their flawless season was concluded with a Superbowl loss. (Hey, better to reveal vulnerability now, right?) Those losses are in no way a forecast of what’s yet to come…

Moving on to a team that locked down a win on Sunday…the Niners beat the Lions, and only allowed them one field goal on the scoreboard. Why am I bringing up a team who have kissed their Superbowl chances goodbye? Because, I was at this game, and even though a champion status is a dream of the past (this year at least), the SF fans were out in full force to witness the last home game of the season. Here are some pictures of the game, and more importantly, the tailgate party:
