Q&A: Winners have best approach - The Denver Post
Q: I have a question about the Broncos' travel plans. San Francisco decides to go to London at the beginning of this week. I'm sure it wasn't an excellent trip only because they left somewhat soon after a Sunday game and were probably sore and uncomfortable in those airline seats for such a long flight. Other than that obvious downfall of heading out early, what else could possibly stop a team from leaving as soon as possible? I am already worried about Sunday's game, not only because of Denver's recent performance but also because they chose to leave later in the week. It does not seem logical to me to wait so long, and unfortunately, because of this I think the team will be negatively affected. Your take?

Who's No. 1 and who's heading home? | National Football Post
1) NFL Officials...With two missed/wrong calls on Sunday night in Green Bay, the squeals of "How can they not see that?" were heard again. NEWS FLASH, humans make mistakes. NFL officials have gotten younger, slimmer, quicker and better trained in recent years but even if there were double the number of them on the field, calls would still be missed. Part of that is the "size and speed" issue of current players but also the quality of athlete is also rising so the incredible is becoming more commonplace. Combine that with the dreaded word "interpretation" and it's a wonder these gentlemen do the excellent job they do.
