Four games over two days is a nice change of pace. Get out your long johns and hand warmers, as all the games are in cold environments this weekend. The first is under a roof though, in...
Indianapolis, as the Colts host the Kansas City Chiefs. Kansas City led off with a first quarter 6 yard touchdown pass from Alex Smith to Dwayne Bowe, and Ryan Succop handled the extra point.

Kansas City added on as Smith found Donnie Avery for 79 yards and a touchdown, and Succop was true with the extra point.

The other Saturday game is in Philadelphia, as the Eagles welcome the New Orleans Saints. New Orleans got going in the second quarter with a Shayne Graham field goal of 36 yards.

On Sunday, the Cincinnati Bengals bring in the San Diego Chargers. San Diego began in the first quarter as Danny Woodhead ran 5 yards for a touchdown, and Nick Novak made the extra point.

San Diego padded the lead on a 58 yard touchdown rush by Ronnie Brown, and Novak handled the PAT. This was good for a 27-10 win, meaning the Chargers will go to Denver to play the Broncos next week, the Bengals are out of the playoffs, and yesterday's AFC winner, the Colts, play the Patriots in Foxboro next week.
Finally, in Green Bay, the coldest of the cold games has the Packers hosting the San Francisco 49ers. San Francisco opened in the first quarter with a 22 yard field goal by Phil Dawson.
