  1. This weekend couldn't have worked out better for the Bears. No more waiting necessary. I expect things will start moving quickly come Monday morning.
  2. I know it's probably over anyway, but this is terribly lazy for a team needing 18 points in the 4th quarter.
  3. Not sure which game I am more surprised by, but it all works out pretty good for a Bear fan.
  4. Look at the total yards disparity. Lordy.
  5. If that's the kind of defense the 49ers are planning on playing, then welcome to yet another team with a bye being dismissed from the playoffs.
  6. Another team with a bye bites the dust. Not the advantage it used to be.
  7. Oh my god, Broncos could actually lose this thing!
  8. He's definitely forgiven, today.
  9. You know, Flacco really is just an airhead.
  10. Wow, what a dumb throw by Kaepernick.
  11. Yeah, kind of a lame throw by Manning, and he just somehow got to it.
  12. They lost the toss, so it could happen. Why acquire Peyton Manning if you aren't going to try to use him to win games in critical situations like that?
  13. What the [expletive]? Taking a knee with 2 timeouts left?!?
  14. Holy living crapolia.
  15. It's only one game, but I'm not all that impressed with the Broncos' offense today. They're driving now, though.
  16. Well.....two big players on that defense nursing injuries, though. I hope you are right. They need pressure on Rodgers today. All the time. No letup.
  17. Gannon's comment sounds like the bare minimum for an NFL OC in today's NFL.
  18. The point is, it isn't a terribly inspiring speech.
  19. It's one tweet from Jimmy Johnson.
  20. I would be disappointed, although not devastated by this hire. He's older than and has been out of the NFL longer than both Gruden and Cowher. His NFL resume is scattered, at best. His last American job was as an OC at a third rate college team. I question how much respect he has among NFL coaches and how much pull he will have in trying to bring quality ones on to this staff. Theoretically he could keep the entire defensive staff in place, plus Bates as his OC, and then he'd just have to fill out the offensive underlings. But that is going to be important. He had a pretty good year with Oakland in 2002, then was gone suddenly. I assume this had to do with Callahan and his overall ineptness since Trestman would have been a Gruden hire in '01. But then, nothing - other than the one year in Miami. I'm not sure why he didn't stick around in the NFL. I would probably be disappointed as well. But I'm kind of confused by his career.
  21. Well, this is the week before championship week. Best case scenario involving teams in the playoffs, would be to hire a guy on Monday. If ONLY Emery's #3 guy is available, but he really wants #1 or 2, then he only has to wait 1 more week to get his guy. After the championship games next Sunday, teams have 2 weeks off. So, win or lose, you can hire a coach that next Monday. It's not worth settling for only a week. If Dennison was the #3 and the Texans lost last week, then maybe you hire him if he's not a very distant 3rd choice. So, it would be fair game to hire, say, McCoy on Jan 21st even if the Broncos are in the Super Bowl? Somehow I missed that detail. I thought they would only interview a 2nd time but still need to wait until Feb 4.
  22. Please no I'm sure the meatballs would love this. In Chicago? Yes, I think so.
  23. Let's say the #3 guy is eliminated this week. He's on the list. You like him. Do you jump at him now, or still wait for the others?
  24. It sounds like the Bears are the only team interviewing him -- at least so far.
