...so you're sayin' there's a chance...

Fox is all James Bond secrecy...we'll not know until game day!

Cutler is a lot of things. Thankfully, one of them is being a tough m'fer.

He shouldn't have had a first! Benson and Grossman botched it!

Ha! Love it! Right there with you!

Agreed. This game can now be competitive.

And neither guy has won the SB since. Rodgers has, and Luck still might (maybe next year).

Having Jay succeed is only a plus. But I still think you pull the trigger on a franchise QB if we can get one. You let him sit like Rodgers and Favre... But I like your overall plan.

Bingo!

You get there by any means. We need talent and depth. You can't do it all through the draft unless you want to wait 5 years. If it weren't for guys like John Tait, or Ruben Brown...we would have not had our run in the early 2000's. They key is to find good younger proven guys. McPhee is a great example so far of what we could potentially find. Aldon Smith has Fangio ties. I woudn't mind that for one...

Not sure... But yeah, this is a serious purge. It was needed. It's apparent that the coaches and GM used 3 games to evaluate everything and see where they are at.

There's a lot of mention of "fire sale",etc...and I'm not sure that's the case. A few have mentioned here that we simply got rid of and got something for guys that weren't working out for us. If we see Bennett or Forte moved, then I think we're in a full scale youth movement. Until that happens, I think the regime stays their course. Keep drafting young talent, pick up a few key FA's and attempt to retain a handful of big contract guys. Bennett: I do see Bennett leaving after his contract, so there is a good reason to shop him. However, we can still use him. He's under contract for a little while and we can tag him. Forte: Either we get the hometown discount or he walks I assume next season. So shopping him makes some sense. That said, we should be seeing a lot more of Langford then. And that hasn't happened yet. Alshon: He worries me. He's always hurt and hasn't shown much w/o having a beast like Marshall around. I really need to see him hit the field. I'm inclined to tag him next year no matter what. We simply need to see him play with White. Until then, it's too much gamble to offer the big long term contract Long: We should lock him up now to a ong term deal befroe we move him to LT and he demands a higher price tag. Just some thoughts for heading into next season...

My neighbor is from Cal, and he swears up and down Goff has NFL written all over him.

This is a move for opening up the cap for next season...

Cap o plenty for next season!

Woo hoo! C'mon Pace, let's hopefully get something other than just the salary dump! (Which is not a bad thing...)

If Claussen plays, I think we lose. The Raiders are no longer pushovers. If Jay plays, we have a good chance of winning if ST doesn't F up yet again and we don't commit the costly turnover at the worst time. If Fales plays, I haven't a foggiest...other than we probably don't win, but hopefully preform better than w/ pickles.

Thanks for clarifying.

OK, I do remember that now... I specifically remember a Minny game. Or maybe that was McMahon!

Agreed on that. Has Cutler ever done that? I just can't recall. Usually, once some bad things happen, I seem to recall more bad happening...and never a comeback.

We would have been better off just handing the ball off 3 times and not even tried to pass...

He needs to go.

Never!
