Observations from the bears game today:

 

Orton has a cannon, he had some serious cheese on his passes today, didnt make too many huge mistakes, and actually looked good in the pocket.

Wolfe needed to get this much PT earlier in the season

Why o why does anyone ever kick to Hester? And why the hell dont we throw that deep ball to him at least once a quarter.\

Sucks we missed out on a better draft slot

Our special teams is the only part of the team that doesnt need a huge rehaul

We need to draft at least 2 O-lineman this draft, would have loved to grab Jake Long

Hunter's time should be up on this team, he just isnt a good player

 

 

Also, would love to grab Mike Martz from the lions to at least put some damn creativity into an offense that has a few serious weapons in Olsen, Berrian, Hester, etc

To each their own I guess. I prefer a class organization that still wins all of the time. Throw in the fact that the Colts had a bevy of injuries against NE and for much of the season, and I still think it's anyone's game when they meet up in Foxboro.

 

Manning still had his 49 in 15 games, which Brady did not, but Tom can keep the record. I'd still rather have Peyton and we have just as good of a shot to upset the Patriots as anyone. It should make a difference with Harrison, Sanders and Gonzalez back.

Brady, Seau, Troy Brown, Bruschi are just a few of the complete class acts that have been inovlved in the Patriots organization. You can say what you want about the coach but lets not act like the team is full of a bunch of thugs or pricks that play the game, the Pats have tons of classy players/individuals and they have busted there ass to get to this point and deserve all the credit as well.

 

The Colts are a class organization, no doubting that, but I'm not going to let spygate tell me that the Pats aren't a quality organization as well.

The O-line doesn't break tackles.

Apparently you haven't noticed, but that has more to do with the Bears piss poor tackling that has occurred all season. That said, I was impressed with the way the Saints rookie back played (I already like him a lot more than that prick Bush).

The Cowboys look kind of shakey lately.

I'm not majorly concerned.

 

I think we're without Owens, Gurode, Newman and 1 or 2 others, so we're a bit banged up.

 

Obviously you want to go into the playoffs with some momentum, but I just want our best players to be healthy, Owens especially.

Yeah, the undrafted rookie FA Pierre Thomas did damn well. 20 carries for 105 yards and 12 catches for 121 yards and a touchdown. Not to mention he went to Illinois AND grew up a Sox fan in a house full of Cub fans in the suburbs, something many of us (like me) can relate to. The fact that he even made the team was amazing, as he made it as an UFA over Antonio Pittman, who was either a 4th or 5th round pick. He had some injury problems in Champaign but he runs hard and is very smart, I think he'll have a decent career.

 

I think Garrett Wolfe might be the first screen pass specialist I've ever seen too (actually that's not it, Turner just can't use him, he's so good in space, yet they run him inside all the time....stupid). And why did Hunter Hillenmeyer start this year? Jamar Williams showed far more in limited time than Hunter has his entire tenure here, and supposedly Williams can play all 3 linebacker spots.

So Bears fans, do you want the Bears to sign McNabb if he gets released in the off-season, or do you want a QB to be drafted in the 1st round?

 

And I'm sure they'll try to upgrade the O-Line in the off-season.

 

Also it looks like Tuna wants the Ireland / Sparano for the GM/Head Coach combo in Miami. Let's just say I'm not very happy at all about that.

Neither. Offensive line is the most important need, without a doubt. If we can get that, then I'm content with a Grossman/Orton competition for the job next year.

Michael Turner

Alan Faneca

Jake Long

Keep Berrian

Fire Ron Turner

Keep Rex, save the money and avoid McNabb

 

That's at least a START to a real offense

 

Unfortunately, Jake Long will never fall to us in the draft.

If I was a Browns fan, I would be kind of peeved. Indy had one more time out and didn't use it. May not have mattered, but still. Not saying put Manning and Wayne back in, but use your timeout and play the game out at least.

Yea, I would be pretty pissed if I were a browns fan. And Jim Sorgi is awful, I don't care if he was with the second stringers. Good thing for the Colts Manning hasn't missed a game.

There's a woman or two that would debate Seau's classiness.

I have no idea if there is a bigger story that I don't know, but I'm pretty sure there is a women somewhere that would debate my classiness or your classiness or anyone's classiness let alone a professional athlete who is probably (even if married) getting with countless girls a month (in there cases depending on the player per day or per week).

Two women are suing NFL star Junior Seau, claiming that the future Hall of Famer drunkenly called them "female-specific profanities" and tossed drinks on them during a bar confrontation last year. The women, who are only identified as "Jane Roe #1" and "Jane Roe #2" in their January 8 complaint, charge that the 37-year-old linebacker "physically threatened and attacked" them last May at Side Bar, a popular San Diego nightspot. The Superior Court lawsuit does not detail what precipitated the alleged incident, though a footnote in the document does quote what Seau reportedly said to the Roes.

 

"Put your shirt on, your tits are too small!" he allegedly counseled Jane Roe #1. Jane Roe #2 allegedly received this fitness advice: "Get on a treadmill, you c--t!" The women also claim that Seau threw two drinks on them, "ruining Plaintiffs' clothing (and evening)."
