NFL Observations and Thoughts for Week 14

• 49ers QB Shaun Hill has looked very impressive in the last two games. He will be a free agent after the season and would be a good back-up QB for any team or possible starter for some teams.
• The NFC team that no one wants to make the playoffs is the New Orleans Saints.
  
• The NFC team that teams want to get into the playoffs and face is the New York Giants.
• Eli Manning is a terrible quarterback.
• The Falcons season was a waste and most of the players have all packed it in.
• Brian Billick of the Ravens should be fired.
• Props to Cam Cameron for starting QB Cleo Lemon over John Beck and having Lemon lead them to an overtime victory over the Ravens.
• Mike Nolan should be fired as head coach of the 49ers. His terrible coaching continued on Saturday night and the 49ers won in spite of his decisions. Nolan's team was in field goal position in the fourth quarter while up 20-13 against the Bengals, and decided to go for it on 4th down instead of kicking the field goal. They did not convert the 4th down and were lucky the Bengals did not tie the game.
• The Browns will be a dangerous team in the playoffs due to their offense and Jamal Lewis.
• Lane Kiffin needs to start QB JaMarcus Russell and stop playing and starting Josh McCown. Russell needs all the reps he can get and the Raiders are not going anywhere this year. Let him take his lumps now.
• Jessica Simpson is Tony Romo's kryptonite.
•
