Wouldn't say they looked all that great in the second half. Watched the whole game and they weren't moving the ball, Benjamin looked like the rookie he is and Cam seemed a bit off. They were gifted the win by Cutler late. If Chicago takes care of the ball and I think the game has a different outcome. Well, no duh.

Carolina looked like the worst team in the league in the first half and one of the best in the 2nd (with some help from Jay Cutler admittedly). I should really give up trying to figure them out.

Seriously. That's the 2nd time he's done that too

Jerry Richardson said when Charlotte was awarded a franchise that he wanted to thank the NFL for giving him a team, so he opted to put their logo at midfield instead of the team's.

Carolina is so schizo, even from drive to drive. Darrin Reaves looks pretty good at RB, so I expect he will be injured within the next quarter.

I'm going to the ND game, and it bums me out that I'm going to miss Auburn/MissSt. That should be tremendous.

Panthers are the worst team in the NFC.

This is no secret but Newton kind of sucks. That too.

If you saw us trip over ourselves against Baltimore (not a great defense) last week, you know the answer to that question. But the Bears D is ok and for sure not as bad as they looked last week

Catch a [expletive] football Panthers

That'll stand. Dammit Benjamin.

Maybe if Carolina just started the backups, THEY'D all get injured and the starters could actually play a game.

I wouldn't put Baylor in there. They haven't beaten anyone good yet. Auburn, FSU, Ole Miss would be my top 3, with any of Miss. State, ND or UCLA (if they win) 4th. TCU (would be in now but had a weak schedule until today) and MSU are right there as well. Arizona too.

How do you figure? If anything I thought this weekend helped the chances of there being 2 SEC teams. In any case it's way too early to say. I don't get that one either. 2 SEC West teams are almost a given at the moment unless they somehow all beat each other twice or something else weird happens.

I would put them #1.

That was a complete misinterpretation of the "process" rule. Then again, screw Michigan

Probably some of both. LSU needed a Melvin Gordon injury to beat Wisconsin, and Wisconsin isn't that good. LSU is probably the worst team in the West, although still a top 25 team.

Last time 4 of top 6 went down in one week was November 1990.

Also, I'll probably be dying soon after that ND game.

Congratulations OMC. I am very pleased to be wrong. Huge win for your boys. Greatest day of football in Mississippi history?

ND's holder comes out with gloves after botching two FG snaps without one, and this time he does the job. I'm gonna have a heart attack.

H/T to the Ole Miss D. Win or lose, they proved themselves today.

Stanford is being gifted a win on a silver platter. Brain-dead play call in own red zone results in turnover, stupid red-zone decision results in another one, and a missed FG.

A&M clocked S. Carolina on the road before people realized they weren't that great (still a good win though), and Miss State clocked LSU on the road. There are lots of schools you could ask this question of before you could ask it of those two (including ND, to be frank).
