Merry Clinchmas? | Query & Schultz - SportsRadio 1260 WNDE. As I watched the Colts incredibly win another game on Thursday night, they're now tied with the Rams and the Vikings for the No. 1 overall pick. Could the Vikings end up with Andrew Luck?

Patchwork Offensive Line Busy Preparing for Bears | Cheesehead TV. LT Chad Clifton is back at practice but he's not expected to play this Sunday.

Lang moving over to right tackle and Evan Dietrich-Smith at left guard. Newhouse's continuing problems are the biggest concern.

Time for Packers to hit the ground running - JSOnline. James Starks and Brandon Saine are back at practice, alongside a seemingly rejuvenated Ryan Grant. Is this the week to expect a big Packer ground assault? Don't count on it. The Raiders run defense is awful. The Chiefs aren't very good either. But the Bears are still hard to run against. Starks had his worst game of the season (11 carries for 5 yards and 1 fumble) against them back on September 25th.
