This is the weekly stock watch. These are 10 players, teams, coaches, and everything in between that either dramatically rose or fell in stock this week. To view the full article, visit the URL below. UP: Kerry Collins, QB, Tennessee Titans Coming into the Bears game, the Titans were on an 11-game regular-season winning streak. In each one of those eleven games, the Titans failed to throw for over 200 yards even once. The first streak stayed intact while the second was broken as Collins turned in one of the best games of his career, posting 289 yards and 2 touchdowns. More importantly, the Titans proved they could win on the arm of Kerry Collins instead of simply having him manage the game. They managed a grand total of 20 yards on 29 carries against a Bears team that was determined to stop the run at all costs. One of those "costs" happened to be the game. DOWN: The Refs...again! Vikings-Packers: a rivalry that has been decided by single digits in several consecutive games now. In yet another close victory, every call and play matters, and the Packers got screwed. First-year ref Alberto Riveron called an "illegal forward pass," resulting in a second-quarter safety, when Rodgers had done no such thing. In an attempt to cover his mistake, he called it "intentional grounding" (which it was not either) in the postgame presser. Another blatant bad call was refusing to throw a personal foul penalty after Adrian Peterson scored a touchdown for the lead and took off his helmet. That's an automatic personal foul, as stupid as the rule may be, and the Vikings should have kicked off from their own 15-yard line. To view the full article, visit the URL.

More on why Eagles should draft Knowshon Moreno

When I said the Eagles should draft Knowshon Moreno if he miraculously happens to be available by the time the Eagles pick, some people loved the idea and others criticized it because "no runningback is worth a first-round pick" and the Eagles need a "big back." Although a "big back" would be nice, an "extraordinary back" would be better. ...
