Sunday Morning, beginning at 11 a.m. MST one of the best match-ups of the day is the Green Bay Packers (7-3) traveling to Atlanta to take on the (8-2) Falcons. This is a key NFC showdown that will be showcasing all type of talent such the top two conference Quarterback's, Aaron Rodgers and Matt Ryan. A win here could be the deciding factor in who gets the NFC's No. 1 seed for the playoffs. Roddy White, Atlanta Falcon's Wideout, is leading the NFL in catches and already has over 1,000 yards.
Two 7-3 teams will square off as the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Chicago Bears and a win here could be the difference between a No. 2 seed or a Wild Card spot. The Chicago defense is coming off of a shut-out victory last week and Eagle QB Mike Vick has yet to throw an interception. So this will be something to watch at 2:15 on FOX.
As for one-on-one match ups Sunday, something to pay close attention to in the Steelers vs Bills game is Corner Ike Taylor going against going against Buffalo standout, Steve Johnson. Pittsburgh uses Taylor to cover their opponents best reciever and is also a solid tackler. As for St. Johnson, he has nine touchdowns on the year and just has a knack for getting open against anybody.
The AFC West Leading Chiefs will face the struggling Seattle Seahawks. The match up of the day here will be Tamba Hali vs. Matt Hasselbeck. Hali has been one of the hungriest players on Kansas City's Defense this year leading the team with eight sacks. His head fake he uses against opponents is difficult to deal with which makes him so good in the pass rush. The veteran Hasselbeck is a fighter and is even playing hurt now with a cast on his left wrist. That means nothing, he is tough and smart and knows the ins-and-outs of Seattle's offense. He also is coming off back to back 300 yard games so the KC secondary will have their work cut out for them.

Man it's a shame that it couldn't have ended better. Being a Saints fan, I have been raised to hate Atlanta, but they seem to be for real. Matt Ryan plays methodical football and Roddy White burns every DB he is put up against. Michael Turner will keep DCs guessing every time he gets on the field
