| Is Ed Reed an upgrade over Glover Quin at safety? He is in name only. They also lost a pass rusher in Connor Barwin. | ||

| They're close, but something seems to be missing. Is it the clutch play by Matt Schaub? | ||
| 01/02/2013 | 7 | 7 |
| That fast start sure seems like a long time ago. But one playoff victory can make it feel like it was yesterday. | ||

| They aren't the same team they were early in the season. They better turn it around quickly. | ||
| 12/18/2012 | 5 | 2 |
| They bounced back nicely after the beating in New England. Now it's about locking up the top seed. | ||
| 12/11/2012 | 2 | 1 |
| If they don't learn to play the pass better, they have no chance to win the Super Bowl. Where are the pass rushers not named Watt? | ||
| 12/04/2012 | 1 | 1 |
| They have clinched a playoff berth, but they want much more than that. At least the defense got back on track. Now they get the Pats. | ||
| 11/27/2012 | 1 | 1 |
| They are banged up, so the long break will do them good. Put a circle around Dec. 10. That's when they get the Patriots. | ||
| 11/20/2012 | 1 | 1 |
| Nice of Gary Kubiak to give the defense the week off against the Jaguars. They better not do that Thanksgiving Day -- or Calvin Johnson will light them up. | ||
| 11/13/2012 | 1 | 3 |
| That was a tough, physical win on the road at Chicago. Nice way to tune up before their bye -- uh, game with Jacksonville. | ||
