    Rehashing the Cutler trade from the Bronco's perspective. http://blogs.denverpost.com/broncos/2010/09/22/rehashing-the-decision-orton-or-campbell/5321/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+dp-blogs-broncos+(Denver+Post:+Sports:+Broncos:+Blog) Basically, good move Broncos picking Orton, and not Campbell.

    The article appears to be mostly speculation, though they have "sources". They aren't saying anything is going to happen immediately...only if they lose to the Texans.

    Pick 2 of: Mendenhall McFadden Moreno Snelling

    Bears jumped from 22 to 12 in the ESPN rankings... http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings?year=2010&week=3 John Clayton ranked the Bears 6th!

    Yeah, Cutler just seems more confident than Rex did. Rex had his moments, sure. But Cutler really seems like the leader of this team. I didn't ever really feel that way about Rex.

    NHL Network is broadcasting preseason games...here's the full schedule. Hawks on tomorrow night....

    Outplayed them...except for all the mistakes that the 49ers made that you just mentioned, right?

    Mike Williams - Tampa Bay WR - has 2 TD's in as many games. They play Pit this week, and are on bye in week 4, so it may not be a beneficial pickup till week 5.

    Buddy of mine didn't start Gore in ffb this week because "he didn't like the matchup". He started Brandon Jackson and Deangelo Williams instead, and lost by less than 4 points to his wife's team....ouch.
  13. Banedon
    Sounds like he's in the doghouse, but they haven't told him why....weird...

    Funny how a couple weeks can change your perspective on the schedule difficulty...I'm trying not to jump to conclusions here, but there are a lot of games that look a lot more winnable this morning. The Giants game was the only won that looked potentially intimidating, but there wasn't any reason to assume the Giants were world beaters even before this week. The Vikings and Eagles both look a lot less scary than they did before the season started, imo.

    Gonna be glad to get done with these couple of nationally televised games and get back to noon games. Though I suppose if they have some success, they'll probably get flexed a couple times.

    Not especially. They beat us by a TD last year in Soldier. The smacked us in 2006 in Soldier and 2004. Before 2004, yeah...they had our number, but since then...it's been more tilted in our favor...even in GB actually. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bears%E2%80%93Packers_rivalry
  18. Banedon
    One of the Packers boards says the Bears are favored by 3. Gambling sites are blocked for me at work, so I can't check...but he's gotta be full of it...

    Is it public reaction that would keep him from making that move though, or locker room reaction? I'm guessing that locker room loves Vick right now.

    Well before the season started, I traded Kolb and Olsen for Chad Henne and Chris Cooley. Cooley's played nicely for me so far. When Grant went down, I grabbed McFadden for this week, and will probably be starting Moreno next week. Looking at getting one or both of Mike Williams and/or Jason Snelling this week. I'm 2-0 so far (blowing out my opponent this week enough that tonights game is moot), and depending on the number of points scored tonight, I might be in line for 1st place this week.

    Melissa Isaacson had one on ESPN this morning (along with like 3-4 Cowboys articles). Peter King had nary a mention of the game...you'd barely knew it existed, though he has the Bears ranked like number 8. He countered that positive by bashing the O-line in his "things I didn't like" segment. But yeah, very little Bears praise. Isaacson is a national writer now? Or is it one of those espnchicago things? ESPNChicago, but it was linked on ESPN's NFL page as a normal article... http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/columns/story?columnist=isaacson_melissa&id=5594140

    I read MMQB this morning wondering what King would say about the game. He bumped the Bears up high in his rankings, but his only talk of the game was Dallas struggling and the Bears offensive line being worse than he thought. He talked about 3 QBs who won their games, and not one of them was Cutler. Don Banks who had the Bears in the bottom 5 or so to start the season said he's not sure how the Bears have won and assumes they probably won't keep winning. I sent Peter an email this morning on his lack of coverage of that game.

    I would think this would have a lot to do with exactly how they lose. I think they can lose, and still come out looking like a "for real" team. I'm guessing a lot of screen plays. The Bears have excelled at running the Martz screen, and Forte is better running in space than inside the tackles. I think that's why the Bears running game looks so weak is because Martz's "rushing" game is the screen pass, so all the stats show up as passing yards.
