What a week to be a former Montana Grizzly in the NFL.

Last week I sang the praises of the Atlanta Falcons, who at 5-3 appeared to be the only NFL team with University of Montana ties to still be in the playoff hunt.

As we officially hit the midpoint of the NFL season, one thing is clear: This could be a short postseason for Montana Grizzly alumni.

Five NFL football players from Montana are on this season's Pro Bowl ballots, including former Pro Bowlers Dan Carpenter and Marc Mariani.

The Miami Dolphins came oh-so-close to getting their first victory of the season, but ultimately fell short against the New York Giants 20-17.

After a disappointing Week 5 in which no NFL team with Grizzly ties won, Week 6 brought about redemption for a few squads.

Once again, Week 4 of the NFL season brought about a great opportunity for some former Montana Grizzlies to shine.

Sunday's NFL action provided a mixed bag of results for the 7 former Montana Grizzlies currently in the league.

Former University of Montana running back Chase Reynolds has experienced quite the roller-coaster ride over the past few weeks.

NBC's "Sunday Night Football" provided a nice little University of Montana reunion, as 3 former players took to the Georgia Dome field for the same game, as the Atlanta Falcons hosted the Philadelphia Eagles.
