Do you guys think that the bears will do better using that new QB instead of Hanie, or will it be worse for them?

I don't think it can get any worse.

Probably about the same. He sucks.

They should just start Enderle. You know what you're getting with McCown (which isn't much), so just let the rookie get out there and play a couple games to see what he's got and help decide whether he's worth keeping around and developing.

Ya, I don't see changing the QB doing anything. If anything, I think it might hurt the team.



Bengals FTW

Ugh, AP is screwed. MRI confirmed he tore both his ACL and MCL.

The Lions did it, they clinched a spot in the playoffs! They're a wild card! Way to go Lions!

[$Greatness$]

Congratulations to the Lions. Well-deserved spot and I'm happy for Megatron, Jimmy Schawartz and Suh. Now I need my closet team (according to friends lol) Giants to beat those frauded Cowboys to cement that Romo is a fraud! But with that out of the way...

Red Rifle, A.J Green and Marvin Lewis... please understand your role here. This coming game against the Baltimore Ravens are bigger than you. This game is about stopping a tyrant from enjoying undeserved success! I don't want to wake up Monday knowing my team is the 5 seed instead of the 1st or 2nd because you clowns wanted to feel special. You'll be one and done in the playoffs, so please get blown out by the Raven so I can see Tyrod Taylor the second half as we'll need everyone healthy for our run for the Superbowl.

Thanks,

John Fraudbaugh

^The last game of the regular season is Cowboys Giants and the winner will move into the playoffs. I'm doubtful Cowboys will win. If they didn't give away soo many games then they would be easy playoff contenders. If Giants win it'll be nice cus they deserved to get into the playoffs last year but because of lousy rules they weren't allowed to over the Seahawks.

Also you should be concerned for the Ravens cus Flacco ain't doing much this year. They sucked against the Chargers. I'd like for em to do well too but yea...

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a repeat of last year's SB, but I hope SOMEBODY in the AFC actually goes instead of the sames teams all the time...

Flacco has done more than meets the eye. Stats would look a lot better if Torrey Smith, Boldin and Dickson knew how to catch. At least he's on pace to stay consistent far as his end of year TD/INT ratio goes. But I'm not worried about that. I just want us to get some home playoff games. We've done the road thing enough. Throw us a bone, Refs! And I believe in Flacco because he's a beast. Wait till Cam Cameron is gone and he'll have A-Rod-like numbers. I called it! I CALLED IT!

[noma34]

Ravens are completely dependent on Rices rushing and Flacco's stats show that well. Bengals have had a pretty good year stopping the run so you better hope Rice plays with a chip on his shoulder and The O-line shows up

[Versus]

I'm hopeful for the Ravens, but I just have a baaaad feeling that they WILL run into the Steelers again in the Playoffs only to lose to them. You how their destinys are intertwined lol.

That's silly. Ravens had no running game last year and Flacco had the second best QB stats from week 2 onto week 16 only behind Brady. This year is different only because we don't have sure-handed WR's like Mason and Heap. But that's how the Ravens offense usually works. Run the ball to setup the deep pass

Everything you said is so true and it hurts. lol It's so weird that it's always like that. They've had the same record the last four years. O_O

[bash]

I am going to be raging so hard if Drew Brees get screwed out of another MVP this year. If there is anyone that deserves it, it's him. Every year he is a beast, 2nd person to go over 5000 yards loses to Manning, team goes 13-3 still loses to Manning against, sets highest pass completion rate and no surprise still loses. If he still doesn't win by getting his team to 12 wins and setting the single season passing record in 15 games I will seriously stop valuing that award.

Anyways, congrats Brees!

[F34R]

What a great game for the Saints. I was cheering something hard over here lol. I'm really glad for him and the team that they were able to get the record on the last Monday night game this season.

Hopefully we'll see the Saints vs Steelers in the SB baby!

I'm worried about Sunday's game against the Bengals. The Bengals need this game to get into the playoffs so they will be playing all out.

Would love to see Doss get in the game since Boldin is out. Not sure what the Ravens see in Laquan Williams.

It's a trap game for us! But I have faith that we'll win. We need this game too much. And LaQuan must be beasting in practice cause I don't get it either.

Congratulations to the first time pro bowlers, including A.J. Green of the Bengals!

Well deserved.

I just don't understand how London Fletcher gets snubbed yet again.

[F34R]

Goooooooo saints!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, twas an awesome game for sure. History made. One more game to cement the record for a long time hopefully.

[The Black Wolf]

Well deserved.

I just don't understand how London Fletcher gets snubbed yet again.

To make the pro bowl, you not only have to be good, but popular in the league. I don't think enough people knew about Fletcher, just like not enough knew about Bowman, Willis' sidekick on the 49ers.

[The Boy From School]

Or maybe it's because he plays for the Redskins, lol.

[F34R]

Yeah, that's usually a negative. hehe...

I used to watch football all the time and have drifted away from it the past few years and a few days ago I saw this documentary and I was amazed. The story of the city, how the team came together, the philosophy of the team, the moment at 28:18, everything was amazing to witness. I will be watching the Saints and football in general!

I'm not a huge fan of anyone so it will be quite hard to pick a team to really get behind but I hope the Saints win more games since they seem like a great organization, great coach, and of course a great leader with Drew Brees.

Well deserved.

I just don't understand how London Fletcher gets snubbed yet again.

This is the very reason I consider the Probowl to be a joke. There is zero reason someone who had 12 seasons with over 115 total tackles (115 being minimum in the span) to be snubbed. Especially considering he is putting on all time single season tackle #s this year; 162 so far. To put the in perspective Patrick Willis's insane rookie season he had 172 and Ray Lewis best year (second season) was 184. With 1 game left he can easily put 172. To put it more in perspective, he's leading the league in total tackles by 17. God, I hate this selection processes for the Probowl and MVP.

London Fletcher: 162 Combined Tackles, 2 Sacks, 2 INTs, 3 FFs, 7 PD
Patrick Willis: 93 Combined Tackles, 2 Sacks, 1 INT, 4 FFs, 12 PD
Brian Urlacher: 92 Combined Tackles, 0 Sacks, 3 INTs, 0 FFs, 7 PDs

London Fletcher should be starter over both of these guys (as much as I want to support Urlacher, Fletcher outplayed him.)
