Season update: Glenn leads by 3

It was a nuclear-free zone in Week 9 as Glenn padded his advantage in the Gehlke Bros. season competition, winning both splits on the schedule. Tampa Bay's 27-24 win over previously undefeated Minnesota was followed by formerly winless Carolina's first victory over struggling New Orleans, both of which aided Glenn's cause. The three-game cushion is the largest advantage either Bro has had so far this season.

For the week Glenn went 9-5, Sean and Benji were 7-7. We all slipped on the Giants' loss to the no-longer O-for Redskins, but none of us was fooled by Philadelphia, which pretended to play a professional football game Monday night against Dallas and got blitzed 34-0 (...that's just one point less than their win total for the whole season!) Denver is now the only undefeated team in the NFL.
