Pre-game notes, late games

I'll make this quick, before somebody else scores again in the Jets-Cardinals game.

Not much to report as far as inactives for the 4 p.m. (et) games. As expected, LaDainian Tomlinson (toe) and Antonio Gates (hip) are active for the Chargers against lame-duck Lane Kiffin's Raiders. Oakland will have Darren McFadden (toe) in the starting lineup as well as shutdown corner Nnadmi Asomugha, despite his fractured elbow.

No major injury surprises in the Buffalo-St. Louis game, AKA Scott Linehan's not-so-grand finale. As was reported earlier in the week, the Redskins' Jason Taylor will sit out today's game with Dallas after recently undergoing emergency calf surgery.

As for tonight's Eagles/Bears clash in Chicago, all signs point to Donovan McNabb (bruised chest) starting for Philly, but RB Brian Westbrook (ankle) figures to be a last minute decision as to whether he'll go.

Of course, somebody did score as I was writing this. Favre's 4th TD pass of the day, this one to Jerricho Cotchery, puts the Jets up 41-21 early in the fourth quarter.
