Edwards wins, moves to third in the Chase
Carl Edwards got himself another win and with the bad luck that Biffle had, Edwards moved into third in points, just 77 points behind Tony Stewart.
Without some bad luck by Stewart and Johnson, I think Edwards is too far back to capture the title with just two races to go. It'll be between Stewart and Johnson, with Stewart in control of the outcome. One slip by Stewart in the final two races and a good run by Johnson could easily cost Stewart the lead, but I don't really think that'll happen, Stewart has been pretty consistent and does well at the final tracks.

Biffle's problems probably sealed the deal for Tony this weekend, because I don't think JJ has the car or team to win and Roush was expected to make a hard run. Still, it won't be a runaway victory. The way Biffle is driving right now, he'll make it deadly close in the end.
Speaking of the Biff, that Danny Sullivan-Joie Chitwood imitation he did proves that, if the racing thing doesn't pan out, the remake of "Bullet" ought to be in his future. I was stunned to see him make it back to 20th after running the race from hell.
Too bad Martin couldn't hold off "WildMan." He really had the best pit stops and strategy. He just didn't have enough speed going into four. I was hoping he would drive high into three, but he didn't and Flip got around him.

Tony seems to always do well, even when he has a bad day, and those Roush cars sure seem to be FAST. But don't ever write off JJ and His CC, they sure seem to pretty much be near the top come the end of the race also.
I think it's Tony's, unless he has some really bad luck. And if it's the cars they are giving Carl or he's just that good, he sure sems to be able to pass on the top or bottom, I wouldn't write him off either.
