December 11, 200718 yr Grossman: "I'd like to be back here if I'm wanted back here" "I'd like to be back here if I'm wanted back here," said Grossman, who endured heavy criticism last season despite helping the Bears make the Super Bowl. "We'll see what goes on." The Bears are 5-8 and out of the playoff picture. Grossman, a first-round pick in 2003, said he wants to be somewhere where he can compete for the starting job. "I think you're always proving yourself, and I definitely would like to be in a situation anywhere where I'm competing for the starting job and show what I can do, and just kind of improve and take the experience that I've had throughout the last couple years and build upon that," he said. "I know I can play good football, so if I'm in a position where I can compete next July, I'll be happy." Edited December 11, 200718 yr by kyyle23

I was listening to Hub Arkush on the score on the way home tonite, and he said Petrino got his 20 million last year, and now he is heading out. the way i interpreted it was that the 20 mil was a signing bonus. I dont know the specifics of his contract though this article is good for laughs Petrino clear about desire to coach the Falcons next year Edited December 12, 200718 yr by kyyle23
December 12, 200718 yr I'd like to point out that there is some awesome discussion going on over in the Bears site. We've just added a ton of new members and the site is going to be changing names in the coming week to Bearstalk.com. I hate to advertise in here, but hell, I don't think I'll get banned for it www.talkbears.com
December 12, 200718 yr He signed on to a team built around Mike Vick, and to help Mike Vick become a very good player. Vick is gone, probably forever from Atlanta, and he's gone. I don't blame him for leaving, but the timing and handling of it were indeed awful.

December 13, 200718 yr QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Dec 12, 2007 -> 01:54 PM) Really wasn't a smart move to deal Matt Schaub either was it. Hindsight is always 20/20. If Mr. Vick hadn't suddenly become a federal prisoner, that deal would still look pretty good, because even though Schaub has played well, the Falcons still got a ton in terms of Picks for him.
December 16, 200718 yr Take the Jets and the points tomorrow. They won't win, but no way NE can win by 24 to 28 points with the weather they'll have. (I hope I don't regret that quote).
December 16, 200718 yr QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 16, 2007 -> 02:55 PM) Miami is winning. New England will win. Miami, of course, blew it
December 16, 200718 yr f***ing CBS. They take the game away after they call a TO. I want to see if Stover made the kick or not.

December 16, 200718 yr QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Dec 16, 2007 -> 03:20 PM) Patriots just matched the 1972 Dolphins' regular season record. The record is the only unbeaten team in league history.. the Patriots havent matched s*** yet, and still have a ways to go before they are undefeated
