Thanksgiving Day didn’t nearly sum up the week however, because like dinner, there were plenty of leftovers for Sunday.

Therefore, we look at a Thanksgiving edition this week of the good, the bad and the ugly.

The turkey

I’ll take a giant helping of Tennessee Titans cornerback Cortland Finnegan versus Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson.

In the fourth quarter, Johnson got sick of Finnegan’s overly aggressive defending and decided to teach him a lesson.

He ripped the cornerback’s helmet off, threw him to the ground and delivered a couple of right hooks to his dome.

It was shocking, but extremely entertaining and the only thing worth tuning in to this game for (more on that later).

Finnegan deserves props for getting up with a smile on his face.

Someone should give these two a prime-time pay-per-view match. It would be more fun than watching Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao take on another scrub.

Scrubs are exactly what I expected the Philadelphia Eagles to make the Chicago Bears look like. I could not have been more wrong.

The Bears forced MVP candidate Michael Vick to throw his first interception of the season and had the offense looking more confused than Titans quarterback Vince Young taking the Wonderlic test.

One minute, the Bears seem to be one of the worst teams in the NFL, the next they are handling the Green Bay Packers, Miami Dolphins and Eagles.

I’m not buying Mike Martz’s offense just yet, but I’ll take a full plate of Julius Peppers and that Bears defense.

Oyster stuffing?

Weird title, I know, but for some reason every Thanksgiving my mom decides to put oysters in the family stuffing.

Maybe it’s an Italian thing or maybe she’s just strange, think of it however you want, but this “tradition” needs to be dropped.

And speaking of drops, Buffalo Bills receiver Steve Johnson’s butter fingers cost his team an overtime victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers this week. He was wide open and quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick delivered him a perfect pass, but it slipped right through his fingers.

Johnson was distraught after the game, proclaiming he would never forget about the drop.

The receiver actually reminds me of my mom’s strange recipe. Maybe it’s his hair, the Mohawk with weird carvings on the side of his head. Or maybe the fact that last week he was sporting a hidden message, “Why so serious?” written on his T-shirt underneath his jersey.

He’s just an interesting character. Regardless of his personality, the way Johnson spoke after the game, my best bet is that he begins counseling in the next few days and becomes best friends with the Boise State kicker.

Grandma’s ‘special’ casserole

It looks gross, it smells even worse and usually it’s left untouched during the meal. However, you know your grandmother put hours into making it and you just don’t have the heart to tell her it’s disgusting.

Well, the Tennessee Titans offense was the nasty casserole Sunday, but I do have to heart to tell them they stink.

The pass game was expected to celebrate the holiday again, feasting for the second time on the Texans’ worst-ranked pass defense.

However, Titans quarterback Rusty Smith threw more passes to the defense than to his best receiver, Randy Moss. Three interceptions compared to two receptions for Moss, who hasn’t performed at an elite level in weeks.

The running game wasn’t any better with Chris Johnson rushing for six yards. If this keeps up, head coach Jeff Fisher is almost guaranteed to be fired.

The team has collapsed and if this keeps up, quarterback Vince Young won’t be the last player to walk out on head coach Jeff Fisher.

I’ll take three servings of the casserole before watching another Titans game.
