Q: Do you think that win over the New Orleans Saints was a job-saving win for St. Louis Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo?
-- Jeff (Calif.)
A: One win is a step, Jeff, but Spagnuolo will be evaluated over the games remaining this season. Sunday's win was a great start, though; no one thought St. Louis could upset New Orleans, and it did. Now the Rams need to come up with more surprising victories so that they can make Spagnuolo's job safer. If he keeps winning, he'll have a chance. If he doesn't, it'll be tough to keep his job because the NFL is a bottom-line business.
Q: The San Diego Chargers clearly have the most talent in the AFC West, but once again are in a dogfight for the division. Do you think the Kansas City Chiefs or Oakland Raiders can catch them?
-- Geoff (Nev.)
