‪#‎Bears‬ injury report includes: Briggs, Boggs, Bushrod, Dixon, McClellin all ruled OUT. LB Bostic & McManis Questionsble & did not practice

I had no idea Briggs was even hurt. What happened?

I think shoulder. They have been really secretive about it.

 

 

Get ready for Sharpton and Jones, everybody

Alright Smoking Jay, gonna need 42 out of you guys this Sunday.

Man the bears injury reports have been ridiculous this year. Wasn't McLellin supposedly gonna come back with the broken hand because he's a linebacker that will never intercept a ball anyway?

McMuffin seems like he may have quite an injury problem. The guy has been an unmitigated disaster

I heard he has a rib. He'll be fine.

Cutler is Favre without the flair and drive.

 

He's like Favre, but not good.

The George comparison has been around for a while and it really is pretty spot on.

you know what i found interesting, B&B read off the Pro Football Reference list of players most similar to Cutler, and George wasnt one of them. I see the comparison as well, which is why i found it interesting

Because I think the comparison is based mostly on intangibles, not quantifiable stats (i.e., they're both whiny d-bags with million dollar arms and 10 cent heads).

Not that quarterback rating is the best way to judge QBs, but does football have a different variation of it that regresses it to league average, ala OPS+, ERA+, wRC+, etc?

I don't think so. There is like Pro Football Focus, but I don't think the bases anything league average.

The +/- goes around league average in 2009 when they started. This would make it possible to make some judgments about league trends since they started grading, but their intention isn't really to make league/year/context-based adjustments. In some ways, it embraces the contingent nature of the grades

You're THAT Packers asshole, but I laughed

He doesn't sport his Eddy Lacy avatar in an attempt to blend in.

I thought their Jake Plummer comparison was better.

If the Bears get no pressure on Ryan, this game will be over pretty quick. Time for Jared to earn his paycheck

I'm hoping the Bears can win a shootout...

Should be a pretty entertaining game for us non Bears fans.

I've been picking the QB going against the Bears 3 of the last 4 weeks in my Fanduel survivor tournament, so I will be happy regardless of the outcome. Yes, I have Matt Ryan as my QB this week.

Me too, but they still have to stop Ryan at least once

A lot of real early touchdown's today.
