I was going to say how fitting it was that so many fans dressed like babies.

Bears sign Rod Hood.

 

 

Hmm interesting? He was a starter for the Cardinals last year in the Super Bowl, and hes only 27.

 

Now Im hoping for Branch to be released and the Bears to pick him up as well.

Yeah, I'm intrigued by this also but wondering why he's available. I guess we'll find out.

 

EDIT: I looked for some commentary on this in the Cleveland paper. There is reference to the fact that he got beat for a TD pass in the preseason game on Saturday, but that's it. Interesting.

This was the highlight to their season. It's all downhill from here.

Remember that last year's Cardinals team was awful defensively for the entire year.

He's got them winning 11. I think I've settled on thinking they are a 10 win team. The offense will be much improved, I think the defense will be similar. The secondary will lose a couple games on their own, and the offense will have a tough time for a few games. If you look at the schedule and assume a loss in all away games versus teams King picks to win 9 or more (GB, SEA, MIN, ATL, BAL) and the home game against PIT, that's your 6 losses in a 10 win season. I doubt that's how it happens. And all you need to do is think they win onoe of the first 3 and you can realistically see 11 wins without any of the wins being upsets.

I don't know if I'd be able to live anymore if we lost to you guys that deep in the postseason. That said, I've always wanted to see a Bears-Packers NFC Title game.

 

I think six or seven teams in the NFC can logically make the claim that they can win the conference this year.

His face looks like someone is wearing a "fatter Jay Cutler mask" or like it was just stung by several bees.

Last year's SI preview: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/specials/preview/2008/09/02/predictions/

 

None of their 9 guys had the Steelers or Cardinals in the Championship game, much less the Super Bowl. 4 of the MVP votes went to Welker, Hasselback, Romo and LT. Everyone had the Chiefs with the worst record except 2 votes for the Falcons and Ravens.

 

I have the Vikings with a floor of 10 wins, ceiling of 12. Bears between 9-11 and Packers between 8-10. But I have no effing clue.
