  1. Wow, Henne.
  2. They had one screen pass...it gave USC all the momentum they needed. They really needed to get pressure on Booty. Too late now.
  3. With Michigan's offense, that might as well be game.
  4. Same place it was at against UCLA. Kept running on 3rd and 4th and short against UCLA when it wasn't working. They can get very stubborn sometimes. And Henne is such a bad quarterback against competent defenses.
  5. Why are the announcers surprised that the defenses have dominated?
  6. They have done a good job of adding talent though (and this includes the minors - they finally got back into the Latin market and had a great draft especially considering the picks they were missing).
  7. The offenses are just overmatched right now.
  8. There goes the credibility. ? In case you didn't know the Dodgers sorta have a good farm system. Incase you sorta don't know the Dodgers gave Pierre $50 million dollars. I can understand the Cubs system rating low. But I don't understand why the "Major League" got an F? I mean we were the most aggressive team in the offseason. Got the top 2 men on offense, improved the bullpen and bench a bit, and stabilized the SP. I don't see how that deserves an F. They lost all credibility right from the start. I can understand maybe a C or something. But F? What do they think we'll finish last again? What a laugh. As UK points out, this was a review - it counted last offseason (2005-2006) and the 2006 regular season. The "Major League" grade was based on the Cubs winning 66 games, certainly F-worthy. Not what the Cubs did this offseason. There goes the credibility. ? In case you didn't know the Dodgers sorta have a good farm system. And turned Milton Bradley into Andre Ethier and signed Nomar on the cheap last offseason.
  9. Without a doubt, the only good thing you missed was Brett Favre crying. :mamoru:
  10. Alright, alright. But it's still a "Bears will play good again" argument. We've been playing bad against top 10 draft ballclubs here. And our potential opponents have been playing bad too, if not worse. Of course they had something to play for and were playing poorly while the Bears had nothing to play for.
  11. Chad Henne and John David Booty...which one will suck less?
  12. Soul, have you seen the Giants play football? Have you seen the Seahawks play away from Seattle? The Lions that put up 21 points on the Bears and then put up 39 on the Cowboys and actually beat them! To add to what raw said, John Tait and Tank Johnson will get their legs underneath them and Charles Tillman will actually play.
  13. The worst part of the Rose Parade and Rose Bowl are how loud those damn jets are. They wake me up right before the Rose Parade every year and make the house shake.
  14. Are there any other QB's besides Quinn and Smith who are seniors or likely to come out in the draft? Because I'm seriously considering wanting the Raiders to pick him in the draft considering I would be surprised if Porter and Moss return next year. I know I doubted him before but I realize, with this bowl game, that he was really, really hurt by crappy QB play. Russell from LSU is likely to come out. Is it possible that he drops to, oh I don't know, the 33rd overall pick? :D I wouldn't mind him at QB. Decisions, decisions. A lot of people think he could actually wind up being #1, ahead of Quinn and easily ahead of Smith. Certainly a top-10 pick, but when the chips are down, I think Quinn will be rated ahead of JMR by most teams.
  15. Are there any other QB's besides Quinn and Smith who are seniors or likely to come out in the draft? Because I'm seriously considering wanting the Raiders to pick him in the draft considering I would be surprised if Porter and Moss return next year. I know I doubted him before but I realize, with this bowl game, that he was really, really hurt by crappy QB play. About time you realized how good CJ is!! :P
  16. Part of this is poor WVU defense, but I have to think it's horrible that Bennett didn't play ahead of Ball earlier in the season.
  17. No, he wasn't. But how many fans stopped watching after halftime? How many media types will excuse crap from a veteran, and focus on the 0.0 rating? From what I can tell, not many. And it seems pretty obvious to everyone that the o-line was brutal and only Benson showed up on offense.
  18. Where did you read them (that could be the problem)? ChicagoBears.com I don't see how you gathered anything about Rex playing from that.
  19. Seahawks at Bears, 12 noon CT on Sunday 1/14. The game is on FOX. GO BEARS!!!
  20. Josh Shipp only had cramps, he's been cleared to play against Oregon State on Thursday.
  21. Where did you read them (that could be the problem)?
  22. Is Nebraska a young team? If they are I think they are going to be the team to beat in the Big 12. If Penn State had an offense they would have had a chance at the National Championship. Their QB is a senior but most of the playmakers are sophomores or juniors. I know their best defensive player, Adam Carriker, is a senior...but I don't know about the rest of the defense.
  23. My local paper predicts UCLA will lose nearly every time, but that's because nearly everyone in the LA Times sports section is a USC fan.
  24. There's no way an NBA team from the JV East beats the Lakers (circa 2004).
