The NFL Thread

Steelers 23
Dolphins 22

Bad call cost us the game.

At least we're better than the Bills.

My Bears had two calls in a row that should have gone the other way, costing 7 points and a loss.

I cant see chicago losing to the Bills no matter how well they played against baltimore.
Why miss the opportunity??
Cutler needs receivers badly. And he needs a Brandon Marshall type one first. Someone who can create a little seperation instantly to give Jay at least some sort of option. If Chicago can pick up Vincent Jackson in F/A in the offseason that would be a huge pick-up. Cutler is mobile enough to not need a great o-line he just needs people who are open quickly to catch the ball. Martz's system is not designed for the Cutler type QB though.

Thursday Night Football

Bears at Dolphins

Spread:

i'm saying the bears 28-17

Webb, I remember that game in 85 quite well. I have it on a Beta max tape! LOL!
No predictions from me,Craig. Except if the Bears are leading at half time they will likely not come out on top. Half time over confidence in the locker room is the worst thing that a coach could let happen!!!

How do you play that tape?

Thigpen looked so good last week but couldn't do anything tonight.

Chicago 16
Miami 0

That score surprised me..
I still have a working Beta Camcorder/12 volt input.. plug it in to tv and route it to pc screen. Battery is long gone so I hook it up to a 12v charger..   8-) I have 4 games from 85 on Beta tape!

I'll tell you what I think, you may agree or disagree as you wish. If the NFL players strike again, they will lose one of their biggest fans. I know off season health ins. is an issue but I look at some of these salaries. (And ticket prices)..

Screw them all (players and owners).

I'll watch NCAA, CFL, golf, maybe even a little baseball.

Ladies beach volleyball might ease the pain a bit more.

McDaniels fired from the Broncos. We have our team back.

I never thought I would say this, not in gazzillion years, never ever! But I would like to thank him for trading, (Speaking softly), Cutler to the bears.

[Craig.]

This is one of the things that hurts from it all. The Broncos offense was set. Cutler, Marshall, Scheffler, Hillis, Clady. All probowl talent, 4 of those are gone, 3 are tearing it up now, Marshall is a proven talent. In return we got a 2nd round corner back for a 1st round pick and hillis, said corner is gone and lighting it up in detroit, and we all know what Hillis is doing in Cleveland. Scheff is having a great season while Denver has no tight end worth mentioning, And as for Cutler, well we got Orton, who in all fairness is killing it on a record pace, and a wasted pick in Tebow
McDaniels ruined this team and i dont care who takes over. Cant be any worse.

Best game evar!!!  Halftime:
