On a day where defenses controlled the flow of the game it stands to reason that two fourth quarter returns for touchdowns led the Steelers to a hard fought victory. LaMarr Woodley scooped up a Brett Favre fumble for a 77-yard touchdown with 6:23 remaining, and Keyaron Fox grabbed a tipped pass taking it 82 yards to the house to clinch the win with just a minute remaining. This was the marquee game of the week and it did not fail to deliver in terms of being a hard fought battle with an exciting finish.

NFL: Are the Vikings Making a Deal With the Devil?

For the past month or so the Vikings have made no real secret about their desires to have Brett Favre as their quarterback next season. The team seems to think it can win the Super Bowl with Favre under center and the fans are getting revved up at the prospects of having the 'Ole Gun Slinger' under center next season.
