Default thoughts from yesterday

Patriots are back and firing on 8 cylinders. Question is can they produce week in and out from now till January?

Jets played 3 great quarters yesterday. That game was a classic battle.

Da Bears, nuff said. Props to Grossman especailly, he's a gamer.

Mark Brunell shut up his critics yesterday! What a game that was, I was tuned into that one (thank god for the NFL Ticket package) like a fly on dog pupoo.

Miami needs help, sad state of affairs down their. Whose Offensive line was worse yesterday, Texans or Dolphins?

Tonite's game should be real interesting.

Oh yea last thought, Believe In Blue. I was so glad to see Tony Dungy get all fired up, bout time he showed a little emotion. Love that!

I think the biggest thing that stood out to me was that Hasselbeck, in reality, is the same old loser who tosses interceptions that he always was.
He was always a clown, but in the system with Alexander he had the luxury of not facing blitzes and heat very often. The other teams have to stay back and play the run and hawk Alexander.
He was tragic last night, and the Bears brought everything but the kitchen sink at him and exposed him to what he truly is, an adequate(at best) qb who makes bad decisions and forces the ball when hes under heat.
Teams playing the Seahawks while Alexander is out would be wise to just do the same thing, blitz and stunt at him from start to finish. He looked like a beaten man on the sidelines during the whole game with no confidence at all. Doesn't take much for a guy like that to crash down to the reality that hes not real good, and they ain't going anywhere this year now. The only way the Seahawks go to the super bowl this year is if they get good tickets.

Mike, the Bears BARELY blitzed last night, they didn't need to, I'll count when I rewatch the game but they BARELY blitzed, maybe twice all game. EVEN if they have Alexander, they might score one more TD. What they don't have is an offensive line. Walter Jones (Sporting News supposed best player in the NFL) got SMOKED ALL game, and Hasselback has a skid mark on his pants from running from Tommie Harris, what is so hilarious was the play that Harris came in clean and then he got smoked by Anderson....

Just bought some suntan lotion for Feb 4th.

WE DON'T NEED A RB, we have the 2nd coming of Brett Favre, and how fitting is it that he is on a team that he tormented for years and years.

Cowboys couldn't hold our jockstrap, our O-Line would hold them and our D-Line would eat up their O-Line...You have Columbo starting, a Bears 1st round draft pick that we cut.....72' Dolphins better watch out, because we are coming...We have 3 hard games in a row, and if we get through those, we are golden (At Jets, Patroits, NY Giants, back to back to back all road games)

Chicago's very good, but you better hold off on all of that 72 Dolphins talk, they haven't played an AFC Team yet. They are probably 1-2 in the NFC, but not nearly as good as the best AFC teams. It's kind of like MLB, the Chumps are in the NL, but the Champs are in the AL. It's the same thing with the NFL AFC vs NFC.
