Don Shula is intimating that should the Patriots win the Superbowl and go undefeated, Spygate should put an asterisk next to the record.

 

Well then the Dolphins should get an asterisk for only playing 17 games and never having to go up against the West Coast offense.

Larry Johnson maybe out for the year with a broken bone in his foot. Yikes.

I called it. I'll never forget the replay when A.J. Hawk rolled over his foot/ankle. Man it looked bad. Like I said, I would have been in utter shock if he just suffered a sprain.

Foot sprain likely to shelve Johnson for Broncos game

I picked up Priest Holmes for a spot start this week to be funny.

 

How about a 170 yard, 3 TD running and 85 yard, 2 TD receiving for the day.

 

It's 2003, right?

So will the Bears target a replacement for Brown in FA or the draft? They need to get younger on that offensive line no doubt.

IMO, they should have drafted a guard is this past year's draft with their #1.

The Bears need replacements at every single position on offense except for TE.

The problem with the Bears is that they haven't had an impact 1st rounder in awhile.

 

Sure, they get 2nd, 3rd, 4th rounders to be capable starters, but no real Pro Bowlers (Briggs and Brown maybe).

 

 

I'll be fair and go back only 10 years:

 

1997 - No #1 pick

1998 - Curtis (P)Enis

1999 - Cade McC(l)own

2000 - Brian Urlacher

2001 - David Terrell

2002 - Marc Columbo

2003 - Michael Haynes, Rex Grossman

2004 - Tommie Harris

2005 - Cedric Benson

2006 - No #1 pick

2007 - Greg Olsen

 

 

The guys in bold are Pro Bowlers

 

Two in ten years of drafting #1 picks is pretty sad.

Grubbs was the only guy worth such a high pick, and Baltimore beat us to him.

 

Olsen's looking pretty good. Nothing wrong with that pick.

"Briggs and Brown maybe"? Maybe???

 

It's obviously unfair to include Olsen in that already. He's playing very well, anyway. And the problem's not in not getting Pro Bowl players. Decent starters are okay in the first round. Humongous busts aren't. Most of those guys who weren't Pro Bowlers couldn't even stick around the league. Columbo's the exception, but that was just rotten injury luck for us.

Cleveland looks like the real deal with the 4 of Anderson, Winslow, Edwards, and Lewis.

 

Why does CBS have Shannon Sharper do highlights much less on their studio show at all?

I predict Cedric Benson has a big game today. Laugh at me later.

Looks like Adrian Peterson just had his knee blown up

If we don't run wild on Oakland, we have real problems.

If we calibrate the term big into Benson stats.... I expect him to go for 25-100 for a TD and few dropped passes. That would be a big day for Cedric.

He was standing on the sidelines, but wasnt moving much. Peterson took a helmet to his knee, and considering his history of injury problems.... it didnt look good.

Heckuva game in Pittsburgh

When has he had a knee injury before? Hip and collarbone are the only ones I remember.

Bills; that's 4 in a row. SOON TO BE 5, HA HA HA HA HA

 

...or not, but I can pretend

Adrian is always going to have injury problems because of his style.

Griese can't even lead this team to a first down. Let the Rex or Orton show start.

Think about this... They had 2 weeks to come up with this offensive game plan.

Wohoo!
