Sounds like the NFL offenses have been told to pack up for the week...

Sunday nighter was the highest scoring game of the week so far, and Monday night is the Aaron Rodgers Show in Lambeau, so this might change a bit more.

But week 10, at 39.27, was the lowest scoring week 10 since at least 2001, and by almost two full points, even with the Sunday nighter totalling 53. Last year averaged almost 52 points a game. The next-lowest since 2001? A 41-even average in 2007.

As a result, the average NFL game this year now only averages 44.03, behind 2002 (44.18), 2010 (44.19), and the new leader, 2008 (44.49).

PS: You can expect a significant Fine Blotter this week. Chicago and Detroit got it on a couple of times in this game. Two consecutive clips, one with a brawl and the second with new knucklehead Nick Fairley roughing the passer in the end zone.
