WEEK 1: (0-0) v Houston (0-0)
WR Eddie Royal opens up the scoring and a Pick 6 by FS Melvin Bullitt seals our unexpected VICTORY, 21-10.

WEEK 2: (1-0) at Tampa Bay (1-0)
Two very inept offenses duke it out, but it was INTs by our MLB Niko Koutouvides and SLB Zak DeOssie that preserved the VICTORY, 10-3.

WEEK 3: (2-0) v Oakland (1-1)
Dennis Dixon really misses having the rookie stud at FL, as Tiquan Underwood isn't cutting it and Eddie Royal is only a complimentary player, not a star. Tough LOSS, 26-7.

WEEK 4: (2-1) v Cincinnati (1-2)
A pair of Dixon INTs spoil what was a very winnable game. Our inept offense leads us to another LOSS, 9-7.

WEEK 5: (2-2) v Cleveland (1-3)
Another blown opportunity. The 2-0 start was a mirage. Dixon needs WR help, and he doesn't have it. LOSS, 19-10.

WEEK 6: (2-3) v Indianapolis (5-0)
Dennis Dixon comes out, plays his best game of the season, but it doesn't result in points. The defense really steps up, and we almost had a chance. A pick 6 in the 4th, however, ends the potentially HUGE upset and hands us a LOSS, 20-12.

WEEK 7: (2-4) at Pittsburgh (2-4)
Defense comes up big in this one, harrassing Ben Roethlisberger incessantly and snagging a pair of picks in a welcome VICTORY, 20-13.

WEEK 8: (3-4) at Baltimore (3-4)
Ray Rice and turnovers kills us in this one we could have won, but instead eat the LOSS, 27-13.

WEEK 9: (3-5) v Tennessee (2-5)
Completely devastated by injury, the Lobos had no answer for Chris Johnson, who handed us the LOSS, 20-17.

WEEK 11: (after the needed bye) (3-6) at Houston (5-4)
Our worst game of the year, Andre Johnson ate us alive in a LOSS 27-7.

WEEK 12: (3-7) v Carolina (4-6)
Dixon is missing 3 wideouts, including our 2 starters, and tosses 4 picks in an embarrassing LOSS, 33-0.

WEEK 13: (3-8) at New England (10-1)
So we have to play Manning twice and Brady this season? Ouch. Still, a respectable LOSS, 23-13.

WEEK 14: (3-9) v Atlanta (9-3)
Backup QB Ryan Fitzpatrick comes in, throws 300 yards, but is sacked 7 times and tosses 4 picks in a LOSS, 35-21.

WEEK 15: (3-10) at Indianapolis (13-0)
Incredibly, we're outplayed all game - as you would expect - but they fumble inside their 20, miss a field goal, and somehow, we come away with the miraculous VICTORY, 20-17.

WEEK 16: (4-10) at New Orleans (5-9)
Fitzpatrick plays outanding on 3rd down, converting 10 of 22, and our kicker boots EIGHT field goals to give us a huge VICTORY, 38-14.

WEEK 17: (5-10) at Tennessee (6-9)
CB Rashean Mathis and the secondary completely shut down the Titans and give us yet another VICTORY, 17-10.

Well, don't we have a QB controversy all of a sudden? Ryan Fitzpatrick leads us to 3 straight victories at the end of the season.

Indianapolis beats Dallas for the NFL title, FS Melvin Bullitt is one of the league's fastest men, LT Eugene Monroe is one of the strongest, but most importantly ... WE MADE MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $19 million dollars, in fact. Enough to get us another season!
