Wait... there are people still asleep on the Bears??? Okay...
He seems to save his worst for SD.
I think I'm sold on the Bears. Or at least as close as I can be with any NFC team other than Atlanta. No one in that conference, aside from the Falcons, really does it for me.
No doubt. And he's even better doing NCAA basketball.
San Diego might go 11-5. They look scary. And the Raiders were bad against the Dolphins. The score doesn't give it justice. It coulda been worse, if it weren't for the kickoff return TD and all the FGs Miami had to settle for.
Ace Bandage
The one and only.
Wow, Colts are nobody. Loss is squarely on Peyton and the big boys up front. If there's anything positive to take out of this week it's that the Jaguars lost as well. That means the AFC South is still wide open. But we have some serious issues to fix on this team. Without a running game we aren't going anywhere.
So that means that this week the Colts, Purdue football, and Purdue basketball teams all lost and the Irish won. It really could not have gone any worse.

the Colts O-Line is porous, at best. Can't throw when you don't have time. The Chargers D-Line can pin back the ears and rush cuz the Colts have no running game.
Peyton can't make chicken salad out of that offense. they are .500 for a reason this year. And yet, they are still in first place.
That division needs to send "Thank you" cards to the NFC West

:dunno:It's a sign, you could repent now.
And it begins. They ain't losing until the AFC Championship. :1orglaugh
Cherry-picking stats is always a terrible idea. The terrible seasons Elway and Young had also saw them behind center for some of the worst offensive lines in the game. Despite that, both had decent to above average DYAR ratings.
Vick was a poor Quarterback. His ability to throw was always what's been in question. I said from day one his ability to be competent was based solely on two things: how good his offensive line is, and how good his receivers are. If you look at his past numbers, (QB rating by the way is an absolute joke, and shouldn't be taken seriously at all) the years in which his offensive line was in the top 5 in DYAR, he was superb, especially when factoring in his ability to run. When they weren't, neither was he, which points to his strength simply being running. His receiving core hasn't improved more than two spots with him under center (DYAR-wise), which again points to him not being a good quarterback. I never said he was a bust, I simply said he was a poor quarterback, and the most important skill to a quarterback is his ability to complete passes, something he struggles with if his team lacks a top notch O-Line and receiving core.
Reports are coming out that AJ won't be suspended. How the hell do you throw three haymakers to a guy with his helmet off and not get suspended? I guess if you get into a fight at a bar (Maurice Purify) or with your girlfriend (Tony McDaniel) you get suspended but not for fight on the field in front of millions of people?

1st time offenders shouldn't be suspended and as far as I know, Andre Johnson has been an upstanding employee of the NFL.
Update: It looks like both AJ and Finnegan are only going to get $25k fines. I guess that's what Richard Seymour got for his his cheap shot on Ben Rothlisberger so it is actually consistent.

I was surprised when I turned on the Raiders game and saw Seymour out there on the field.
Derek Anderson goes off on reporter after questioned on why he was laughing on sideline while Cardinals were losing:

Who the fuck cares if he had a quick laugh. For all we now, that was the extent of his laughing. Sure, he should be pissed off, but if the lineman happened to say something funny, he is allowed to laugh. And it is not that reporter's nor anyone else's business what they were talking about.

D-Rock you don't miss a trick do you?? Wow...your Bears just beat one of the hottest teams in the NFC...pretty convincingly IMO, you have the Lions coming up...what on earth can you possibly be uptight about now???:1orglaugh
Like I said D-R...you could find a flaw in a Rembrandt.:o
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they won. I don't even think they are a bad team, but for having an 8-3 record now and probably a good record when the season is over they might be somewhere around the top 15th best team this year. I'm sure there have been worse teams with records like that in the history of the NFL, but none of them come to mind at the moment.
As far as one team winning against another goes what needs to be kept in mind, especially in football, is that specific match ups and schemes mean a lot(let taking into account the Any Given Sunday effect that can always happen) and can play a big part of the game, even if other things being equal where the quality of the teams would indicate some other result out of context. It's possible the Bears just had an above average game, the Eagles had a below average one, the Bears were just one of the few teams that matched up with Philadelphia very well and exploited it, or some combination of those things.
hmmm im hoping bears or packers for the nfc and jets or chargers for afc
Anderson "is done" for the season, i really hope Larry F. will have a QB. Nice win by the 49ers in that division game.
