Agree totally, but at least Saban has done one good thing and thats bringing Harrington in for Culpepper. Maybe now our fortunes will change.

I wish them the best of luck, but Harrington hasn't impressed me since he left Oregon.

I can't blame him for everything that happened in Detroit, but they did take WRs in the first round of the draft three years in a row to give him weapons to use.

It just never worked out for him.

I'll still take the Bears over the Dolphins.[/QUOTE]


But in all honesty how many of those WR's were any good & how many will be there next season. Most likely 1 & they'll be drafting a WR in the 1st this year

You ****ing KNOW IT! I'm going to Chicago at Christmas and I'm gonna get some Powlish Sassige! Shufflin on down to do it for you!

Seriously though, they're gonna win the rings this year.

Long time Steelers fan. Although they are 2-4, don't count them out yet, you'll see them on the rise over the next few games.

49er, seeing as they swept all before them when I was a wee nipper who first laid eyes on the game. Lean years these days though, although I reckon Alex Smith is going to come good soon.

It's a shame that the 'glory days' in San Francisco have been replaced with 'glory holes'.

Big test this weekend for them as they play in Soldier Field on Sunday.

Bears should clock up between 35 and 45 in that one.

The Bears don't lose at Soldier Field, so too bad for 49's, they wont be ending the Bears undefeated run.

I picked the Patriots the year of superbowl 36, since they were the first team I picked that went all the way I've stuck with them ever since.

I applaud you for not jumping off of a bridge at any point during that time frame.

Some very 'hard' years to be a fan of any team.

Carolina Panthers. The 'cardiac cats' are just more fun to watch than any other team in the 4th quarter. They make crazy stuff happen with players that just aren't as good as their opponents (except for Peppers... because anyone that plays tackle, guard, linebacker, and wide receiver in the same game deserves some credit).

Houston Texans. We're pretty new but we're good!:rolleyes:

Waylander24

I've been a Broncos fan since the mid eighties. We should have beaten the Colts tonight but our pass defence was pretty poor. Congrats to the Colts though, Manning had a great second half.

Chucky the tree

oh yea, beating the superbowl champs when your offense only manage to get 98 yards. Brilliant.

Rented Mule

Can we talk about the Bears v 49ers yesterday ??

That's what we call openin' up a can of 'Whoop ass' !!

RuggieBear

49'ers are really really poor. San diego hammered them too

41 point first half. very sweet.

Wish Benson had got more carries though

What about Larry Johnson for the Chiefs yesterday? 4 touchdowns (3 rushing, 1 receiving) to see off Seattle 35 - 28 at Arrowhead.

Another solid game for Damon Huard filling in for Trent Green. 17 off 25 for 316 yards.

Good performance by the chargers although it has to be said that the hawks have been crippled by injuries this season. Alexander and Hasselback out and to be honest Wallace and Morris aren't up to scratch. Still 4-3 and tying the division!

Have supported New England since the Steve Grogan days. Have a Andre Tippet jersey at home. Suffered through the awful eighties, watching snippets of the Pats getting whupped on C4, Sat and cried, totally distraught as that Bears team embarassed my boys in the Superbowl.

Had nightmares of the Fridge belly flopping over the goal line to really rub it in, for years to follow. Was slowly dragged back in by the great Bledsoe years, until finally dancing around the living room with my brother after the magical 2001 season finished with the drive and the FG.

Can not wait to see the Pats take the Colts apart on Sunday, but have been waiting 20 years, yep, 20 years for the Nov 20th showdown against the Bears. What I love is that the betting might be close, seeing as the Bears are the hype pick right now. But seriously, a AL team, at home, with revenge on its mind?

I really can't wait..

FlutterinBantam

Ah Steve Grogan.. long neck

46-10 that was one hell of a beating.

Some great games coming up in the next few weeks.

Who was the wide receiver who took the knife to his bitch before that game?

Went on to become an ordained minister

Redskins fan #2 reporting for duty here!
What a letdown the return of Joe Gibbs has been!.The momentum of last years surge fom 5-6 to 10-6 has died and apart from Brunells completion record V the "might" of the Texans and Santana Moss' heroics V Jacksonville,this seasons been a shambles.
A win V the Cowboys would be a nice stepping stone on sunday but now that Bledsoe has being removed,we're not going to get as many sacks & int's as we need.Last years defense overachieved and throw in this years injuries and they havent helped
As for the offense~all the weapons should be there and the days of 3x1,000 yd WRs and a 1,000yd rusher & 4,000yd QB should be a reality but Cooley & Patten & Randle El arent being fed the ball
A shutout v Dallas will do at this stage,as the schedule now looks too tough to smell the playoffs,my preseason optimism made me back them at 16/1 to land the big one! silly me

Cool, you keep hanging on to the past there chum,
if you think the Bears are coming into New England
and leaving with anything other than a lesson in AL
superiority, and a severe thrashing at the hands of Brady and Co,
well you are crazier than Jim McMahon on acid...

Patriots 27- Bears 10

The thing that struck me watching that is how light everybody is. Amazing the difference in body shapes in 20 years.

That's a pretty decent point to say the least
The Fridge looks like Kate Moss when put beside Ted Washington

Big_G

Players were a bit smaller, on average. He was 3 inches shorter. However, he looks a damn site more muscular than chubby Ted, and he could slam dunk and jump onto a kitchen table from a standing start. Hardly could say that for Ted. And Ted never scored a touchdown in the Superbowl. Bigger ain't necessarily better.

Just looked it up
Several defensive linemen on the Patriots, for example, are bigger than the Fridge was in 1985. Vincent Wilfork is shorter but heavier. Richard Seymore is taller than slightly lighter. Point is, theres TONNES of Fridges around now, when back then he was the only one..

Rented Mule

William Perry's alleged playing weight in 1985 (in-season) was 308lbs

The average offensive lineman is bigger than that today.

His out-of-season weight bordered on 400lbs. Dan Hampton named im biscuit, because he was 'one biscuit away from 400 when he reported to Training Camp.

As Ditka used to say 'everytime he goes back to Carolina, the chicken population is cut in half'
