Posted: January 4, 2015

Scott, who received a standing ovation during his acceptance of the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance at the 2014 ESPY Awards in July, addressed his uncertain future at the time. … The Colts have the #1 passing offense and have won five of their last six games, while the Bengals have the 20th-ranked passing defense and have split their last four games. … Much of the Cowboys' hopes will rest on DeMarco Murray, but the Lions have Ndamukong Suh back and are positioned as one of the better run defenses in the league, so they should be able to contain Murray…

Saints at Bears (4:25 pm, Fox) - Teddy Bridgewater has done a fine job leading the Saints in Drew Brees' absence, but he's losing two of his top three targets today -- Alvin Kamara and Jared Cook, both out with injuries. … Yes, it was an impressive win over the Cowboys last week, but that was an uneven opponent who dipped in the wrong direction just when the returning Sam Darnold put together some magic. … Ed: Speaking of the Steelers, their one-game winning streak is safe -- they have a bye, and Mason Rudolph has another week to step back into the starting role for the sad-sack Dolphins on the 28th…
