Broncos Still Waiting for Wes Welker Clearance
The Denver Brnocos are on the verge of clinching the division and the best record in the AFC, but they need to win their next two games in order to be sure that happens, and it would really help them if Wes Welker, who has been out due to a concussion since December 8, was cleared by the medical staff to comeback.

NFL Rumors – Green Bay Packers Still Starting Matt Flynn, not Aaron Rodgers

Chicago Bears – The Jay Cutler Experience Isn’t for the Faint of Heart
Choosing Jay Cutler over Josh McCown might have been a bad decision by Marc Trestman early on for the Chicago Bears, but by the end of their 38-31 win over the Cleveland Browns it turned out to be the correct one. No one argues with bottom lines, which is the Bears currently holding on to the lead in the NFC North, hoping for the Detroit Lions to slip up in their next game and later as well.

Minnesota Vikings – Who Needs Adrian Peterson?
The Minnesota Vikings have nothing to play for, but they’re still a major player in the molding of the playoff picture.

Dallas Cowboys – Tony Romo Reveals His True Self Once Again
At some point, it’s hard to argue with the facts. Tony Romo gets a lot of flack for being terrible in the biggest moments, but after his awful mistakes, along with his head coach and offensive coordinator calling terrible plays, the Dallas Cowboys don’t look like a team that will end up in the playoffs, blowing a 23 point lead against the Green Bay Packers and finding themselves in a situation they should never have reached.

NFL Rumors – Chicago Bears Starting Jay Cutler, Benching Josh McCown
The Chicago Bears haven’t seen a win with Jay Cutler at the quarterback position in over two months, but that isn’t stopping them from re-instating him as their starter, which means Josh McCown, doing a very good job in his place, is going back to the bench.
