Joe Concha is on vacation. Today's NFL schedule below the fold.

Before we get there, any final thoughts on last night's Heisman pick?

And how about the San Jose Sharks becoming the fastest team to reach 50 points in a season since the 1929-1930 Bruins?

On to today's football schedule which has some great games:

Tampa Bay at Atlanta
Washington at Cincinnati
Detroit at Indianapolis
San Diego at Kansas City
Seattle at St. Louis
San Francisco at Miami
Buffalo at NY Jets
Tennessee at Houston
Green Bay at Jacksonville
Minnesota at Arizona
Denver at Carolina
Pittsburgh at Baltimore
New England at Oakland
NY Giants at Dallas 

Where do you begin? Bucs against Dirty Birds in Atlanta. 9-4 vs. 8-5. This could be really good!

Two AFC East games could have HUGE playoff implications. Can the suddenly struggling Jets hold off the Bills, and could the suddenly resurgent Niners upset the Dolphins? These two games could have a HUGE impact on who wins this division.

8-5 Vikes at 8-5 Cards. After the Bears stunning OT win Thursday, Vikes have to keep pace to stay in the race. Yummy! 

8-5 Broncs at 10-3 Pans. Much more at stake for the Pans with Bucs breathing down their necks. 

10-3 Steelers at 9-4 Ravens. Wow. Huge game.

And finally, G-men at Boys. Which team will respond to last week's disappointment?

All in all, if you're a pro football fan, this is practically a Dream Weekend of great matchups with fabulous playoff portent.

What will be the game of the day, and what will be the big upset that dramatically changes the playoff picture?
