Free Agents
Ok. I like the idea of going after Suggs but I disagree with cutting Alex Brown. Cut Wale but Brown stays. Peace

Free Agents
Mike Brown doesn't owe anyone anything. He has come back from multiple injuries instead of simply walking away. When he is on the field, he gives it everything he has. I believe he actually changed his salary this yr so most of it would be based on playing time. He should look for the best deal he can get on the market. Peace

FB Davis
You and I both know in Turner's offense the fullback is a receiving target. The FB in this offense has to be able to catch the ball. Peace

I'm going to bring it up once again. Ocho Cinco?
You're definately entitled to your opinion. I simply don't see that he has impressed the coaching staff. Why the heck would Davis be starting over him????? I will say that the FA WR crop is fairly crappy and that might lead them to giving him another chance. However, after what I have seen, I would rather Bennett, Riddeau, and the other young WRs get a chance. Peace

FB Davis
I will reserver judgement on Davis for 2 more games. I haven't been overly impressed but he is still learning. Peace

Great cast as well. Brian Cox, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Tomei, and Ethan Hawke. Good stuff. Peace

Meant special teamer. See my other response. Peace

Meant to say special teams player. Thanks for catching. Need to stop multi-tasking. Peace

Packers @ Bears 12-22-08
Correct. If any of those outcomes are different, we still are in it. The wild card, however, is a long shot. We need Atlanta to beat Minny. Peace

Agreed 100%. I see Booker and Lloyd both leaving. We do not want to have to replace 3 receivers next yr. Davis is a very good receiver and will be kept for special teams and 5th receiver. Peace

Packers @ Bears 12-22-08
Nope. Pulled this from Briggs article earlier in the week: If all of the following occurs, the Bears will be playing for 2009 come Monday: Dallas defeats Baltimore on Saturday night Minnesota defeats Atlanta on Sunday; wins NFC North Tampa Bay defeats San Diego on Sunday Philadelphia defeats Washington on Sunday So it is entirely possible Monday nights game will be meaningless. Peace

Good article on Toub
http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bear19.article I think he will be a head coach in the next 5 yrs. Peace

Drops may be costly for Orton
http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bsep19.article As for the TD escalator, I can think of at least 3 dropped TD passes (Hester against Philly, Booker against Minny, and Clark against NO). Further Clark fumbled on the 1 yd line against Minny and it was recovered in the endzone by Davis. Peace

Free Agents
I would like the following: - Bring in a veteran QB (Collins or Garcia fit the bill) - Bring in a veteran receiver (TJ would be great) - Bring in a veteran free safety (no idea who at this point) Draft o-line and d-line. Peace

Booker is most likely gone but Davis will stay as a 5th receiver, special teams expert. Lloyd is likely gone. He is in the coaches doghouse. Hester has improved especially over the last few games which is a good going into next yr. Kyle has definately missed him a couple of times on deep balls but he also dropped a sure touchdown against Philly earlier this yr. Bennett has the build to be a Hines Ward type. The coaching staff just needs to get him on the field. Peace

Not printed but when he was recovering from his injury, he delared that he wouldn't play until he was 100%. Then he declared he was healthy enough to play and the coaches kept him on the bench for another week. My interpretation - he pissed off the coaching staff with his statements. He will not be back. Peace

Packers @ Bears 12-22-08
Will be there as well. Section 359, row 13. Stop by if you get a chance. Peace

1 Pro-Bowler
I agree - s happens. I was just noting it can happen any time. Further, I agree lose the game and go to a skills competition. Make it a celebration of the NFL - for the fans to enjoy. Peace

1 Pro-Bowler
Remember Robert Edwards? He was a rookie rb for the Patriots who was invited to participate in a rookie flag football game in Hawaii. Tore his knee up and was never the same. Peace

Bernard Berrian
If we had franchised him, I doubt the Vikings take him and we would have had him for 8 million this yr. Peace

1 Pro-Bowler
The only other player I believe deserves it is Maynard. He leads the league with punts inside the 20. Peace

Playoff hopes on critical
2 big keys this weekend. Altanta beating Minny and Carolina beating NY. If NY loses 3 in a row, Coughlin will be extra pissed and will not go into Minny to play it safe. Peace

One of the biggest mistakes of the last 3 years
Great to hear. Watch out - they grow up fast. My oldest is almost in high school. I am definately not ready for that. Peace
