Bears looking good early. Atlanta seems to be headed on a downward spiral, down yet again at home.

I am really interested in the Colts-Bengals game, if anyone I think this maybe the weekend they may lose one (IND) where C. Palmer statistically has a slight edge, although Manning and CO have other thoughts.

My Eagles look pretty damn bad. McMahon is definately flustered. Oh well, bring on Spring Training!!!

Absolutely...the Dolphins suck and the Hurricanes got outplayed. Hell, even the Suns got beat again last night. Can baseball season just start already?

Hmm, already 14-3 for IND, 1st quarter

The Bears defense really played well today. Delhomme was under pressure all day and was sacked 8 times. Hopefully the Bears will get a little respect nationally after this game. According to most of the press they weren't even going to be close in this game and they dominated the game on both sides of the ball despite what the final score was.

Bears, were awesome today!! I was getting pissed with Muhammed. It seems like he had more drops today than he had all year. I couldn't believe he dropped the one in the endzone and then another easy one on the easy first down play. After those drops it looks like Orton started hitting Gage alot more. Very impressed with Gage after this game. He looked great. I was worried when we lost Bradley, but it looks like Gage is really stepping up.

Indy 35 Cincy 27 at the half. If Peyton does not step on his linemans foot it could have easliy been 42-20. The Colts offense today has been as close to perfection as you can get (outside the INT referenced above). To top it off they are doing it against a great pass defense.

Bears fans ya got room for one more???

What an ass kicking...

I feel sick in the pit of my stomach. I felt the same after last week's debacle, and this week is almost worse (almost, not quite; though the whole Norv thing adds extra umph to the pain).

The Redskins stink. Forget the playoffs, they need to win four out of six just to go 9-7, and I don't see that happening.

I guess I always knew it would be a three year plan with Gibbs, but hopes got inflated this year with the good start. Now we see the real team, a team that can't beat a second-rate Tampa team with rookie QB, and a team that can't win at home against a terrible Raiders team who only mustered 16 measley points. Too many turnovers.

I simply refuse to believe that teams like the Bears, the Giants, and the Cowboys are better than the Redskins, but the turnovers are insurmountable. The NFC is a joke. The 'best' team in the conference right now is the Seahawks, and lemme tell ya folks, I've seen em in person, and they ain't that good. There must be 5 or 6 teams in the AFC better than anyone in the NFC.

Bears fans, feel good, go ahead. But don't get too high on yourselves. You are in the worst division in football, and that is sayin' a lot, because there are a few bad divisions in football. Like the division the Seahawks are in, for example. I think Orton is good, but he is still a rookie. He has a tremendous up-side, but the fact he's a rookie is not going to serve you well in the playoffs.

Of course, all that matters is Ws and Ls. I think I'm gonna be sick . . . .

It's called denial.

Giants beat the Skins 36-0.

Again, denial.

And the Redskins beat the Giants at FedEx last year, 31-7.

Wait for Christmas Eve. Mara will have been dead a long time by then.

That was a heartwarming holiday season moment if there ever was one.

Yeah, it was a cheap shot, I admit

But still, you can't discount the effect his passing had on that team, which hleped lead to the 36-0 drubbing. That and the fact that the Redskins stink . . .

Still, I'm looking forward to Xmas eve, even if the skins have no shot at the playoffs. Eli don't play too good on the road.

LOL.

Damn, not only in denial, but bitter and classless.

I'm too lazy to look, but I hope this is the last time the Texans will be on my TV during a Sunday or Monday night game...

A brutal team to watch.

The Colts D needs to tighten things up. The front four hasn't generated much pressure over the past few weeks or so after dominating games early on in the season.

And now it is time to prepare for a trip to Lambeau for tomorrow night's game.

the schedule for monday and sunday night games......HAS SUCKED. they should set these up 3 weeks ahead of time.

I understand the desire to do that, and I think the next set of contracts does contain some flexibility for the networks, it sucks for the fans. I'm going to the Indy-San Diego game later in the year, and depending on what is scheduled for Sunday or Monday night, they might have chosen that game to move to Monday night. Bad news for me, my flight leaves Indy early on Monday morning. I'd be pissed off.

Sh*t happens in the NFL, teams go from good to bad and vice versa in a hurry.

Everyone's welcome on the Bears bandwagon. I'm just happy there is a bandwagon this year.

Bears are for reals. They are pretty offensively challenged, but as long as they can run, they can win. Nice to see them start the tough stretch of their schedule with a convincing win. The Tampa game should be a great defensive slugfest next week.

It's a total meltdown here in Michigan. Fans want to lynch Mooch, They want Charlie to payback 10 of his 14 million signing bonus because he failed 3 drug tests, Joey won't throw the ball more than 5 yards, the defense is calling out the offense...good god what a disappointment.
