A few brief thoughts on NFL Week 16

 And now this week's edition of The NFL In So Many Words -- the hopeful Blob feature that's looking forward to a new year, and of which critics have said "I'm looking forward to a new year in which we kill this thing once and for all!" and also "New year? Why, wasn't the old one good enough?":

1. "Speaking of new things, let's give Nick Foles a shot!" (The Indianapolis Colts)

2. "Yeah! Give me a shot!" (Nick Foles)

3. "GAAAH!" (The Colts, after Foles throws three picks, is sacked seven times and puts up a 31.9 passer rating in a 20-3 loss to the Chargers)

4. "GAAAH!" (Nick Foles, running for his life from the Chargers pass rush)

5. "Nobody told me our O-line was THIS bad!" (Also Foles)

6. Meanwhile, the Lions!

7. Lions-ed it up again, getting crushed 37-23 by the Panthers after getting everybody's hopes up that they might actually make the playoffs.

8. The AFC South. The NFC South. Heck, everyone in the NFC except the Eagles, the Cowboys, the 49ers and the Vikings.

9. Should all be sold for parts at a Reclaimed Freight outlet near you.

10. "GAAAH! (Fans realizing that one team each from the AFC South and NFC South is actually going to make the playoffs)
