That's what the Draft is for. Collins was horrible in every game he played. Cut Collins, bring in Mallet/Dalton. Then spend the rest of the Draft on Defense and the O-Line. New Center, Left Guard, Right Tackle, 2 new CBs, Dalton/Mallet, and Titus Young if he's still there. Poof. The Bears have a deeper lineup.
Nathan. Enderle. It looks like Collins will be gone soon. Sweet! Too bad the lockout prevents any signings, because Carson Palmer needs to get out of Cincy, or his career's over.
That Top 100 list is looking iffy. I just can't see Brady at 1. Manning, hell yeah! Brady? Not after Spygate. If he can't win without his coach cheating, he's just another Dan Fouts/Dan Marino. Peyton won his fair and square. I also don't see Polamalu under Ed Reed. It just don't work that way. It takes Reed four plays to change a game, Polamalu does it in four seconds. I still can't see Brady being smarter, better, or more competitive than Manning. (Either of them. If only Eli had Peyton's arm...) Think: Brady nearly got beat by a burned Kurt Warner, almost broke the moblie QB taboo (Eagles and McNabb), and nearly got beat by the most unrecognizable Super Bowl Quarterback EVER. He's also VERY arrogant. (Remember this little quote? "What!? Seventeen points? Are you serious? I think someone's not giving us mch credit here, huh. *laughs*" Brady goes on to score 14 points. Funny how that works, huh?) He's gone one-and-done twice in a row, and lost with a 14-2 record. Who do you know who loses witht hat type of record? Falcons: 13-3. Ben Roethlisberger's rookie season: 13-3. (By the way, he was SNUBBED, big time. Best current Post Season record with a 10-3 record, and that amazing record of most 4th quarter combacks in first 7 seasons? No problem! Most consecutive wins by a rookie with 13? Easy. COMES BACK FROM HITTING HOS HEAD ON A WINDSHIELD? Why not? Rated 41? I think some players need to watch the games more. He may not set passing records, but he will soon. What other QB do you know that looks like that who can move that way? Nobody besides Tebow, but he can't throw worth anything. Alas, I digress.) Brady does not beat Manning. That's the bottom line. Sure, Brady's got the 50, but Manning has the CONSISTENCY. Brady's TD numbers: 18, 28, 23, 28, 26, 24, 50, [b]0[/], 29, 31. Waste of time. Manning: 26, 26, 33, 26, 27, 29, 49, 28, 31, 31, 27, 33, 33. Hrm... Which are better, I wonder? I see a LOT more 30+ up there for Manning. Three rings does not excuse you for being unable to win again. I mean, Ben's got a .769 for the post season, which beats both Mannings, Brady, and even the great Joe Montana. That's gotta count for somethin'! All I know is, a lot of players got snubbed on that list.
And the season starts again. Saints=Waste of time. Really? 1st and Goal with 0:00 left and one play, and you hand it to a ROOKIE? Think Mr. Sean Payton. Think. Was that intelligent? The guy isn't a fullback.
Bears-Falcons. This will be a nice game. Cutler vs. Ryan, Forte vs. Turner. The up-and-coming vs. the well-established defenses. Grimes vs. Tillman and Merriweather.
Pats are stupid. You keep losing on defense, and you trade your best safety? Morons. Go on, keep passing the ball and don't play defense. 10-6.
'The Rams and the Lions WILL deal out some heavy points. Stafford went through the pain of having his shoulder muscle WIRED DOWN, so it can't tear again, and Bradford's just a beast.
Young QBs in the playoffs-
Bradford-10-6 (Wins NFC West)
Freeman-12-4 (Wins NFC South) 25 TD, 6 INT. All I need to say for a third year guy. This year: 29-31 TD, 7 INT.
Stafford-10-6 or 12-4. Won't win the division, but makes the playoffs. THE NFC NORTH IS LOADED!
Dalton and the Jags if Manning stays down.-9-7
Of course, Flacco and Ryan.
Terrel. Freaking. Pryor. THAT GUY IS FAST AS HELL!
Experienced QBs
Naturally, Brady, Big Ben, Rivers, Cutler, maybe Rodgers if they clean up that D, and Kolb. (He's getting older, so I say experienced, not aging.) Cassel goes too. KC finally closes it's vice on the AFC West.
Manning is done for the season, he will have one more good one, maybe a ring, then he will retire. He's taken a beating. Eh, too bad the Jags are dumb. Bye-Bye Garrard, you'll do better with a team with some weapons.
Playoffs
NFC
1-Eagles
2-Bears
3-Bucs
4-Rams
5-Up for grabs. The NFC North CAN put 3 teams in the playoffs, or the Falcons will take it. They have a bad schedule, however. I say NFC North OWNS these playoffs. Just pointing this out.
6-Vikings? (Am I the ONLY one who sees the Randall Cunningham thing playing out again? Yeah? Ah, well.)
AFC
1-Steelers, baby!
2-New England-No D=another One-And-Done. People have found out Brady. Putt him on his butt, he throws picks. Brady's worst nightmares-Lions, Bucs, Amobi Okoye in general. HIS ARMS ARE BIGGER THAN MY HEAD! Packers, Steelers if they don't blitz, and maybe the Jets?
3-Cheifs
4-Jaguars. No Manning, no playoffs. Sorry, Colts.
5-UPSET! Oakland. What? Terrel Pryor, man! The guy can move, throw, and run. McNabbulous!
6- Ravens. Again.
This is my IDEAL. Not what may actually happen. If this DOES happen, the 5 seed will likely be the Pack or the Lions, depending on who does better in the division. The NFC North is now the scariest division in football for any QB. Whoever comes out of there alive earns their pay.
HOW HAVE I NOT POSTED IN THIS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
OK, so for my best fantasy league I have:
QB: Brees-GREAT GET. Reliable, strong, and has a few good targets
RB: Peterson-I don't know how, but I got him! WIN pick!
Defense: Packers, was it? Not a bad pick.
Backup QB: Sanchez-Yes, I bleed green for the Jets.
The rest are carp.
You should have nabbed the Lions or Philly. You'll see what I mean soon. GET SAM BRADFORD ASAP. If you can't find him, look for Matt Stafford. Otherwise, Josh Freeman. (Black QB with some throwing talent. I'll take 25-6 TD-INT any day, wouldn't you?) Speaking of the NFL, I found myself and a few other fans (Mainly black guys, hah.) saying McNabbulous more often lately. And am I the only one who sees the similarity between Randall Cunningham and Donovan McNabb? Plays for Eagles 10 years, leaves, has a last hurrah in Minnesota. We'll see if there is a different outcome.
And Philly? Quit whining. You find SOME way to bash EVERY QB you've ever had. "Oh, Cunningham likes to goof off too much!" "McNabb doesn't run enough, so he's weak!" (Erm, played on broken leg, thank you! And he made it VERY clear that he hated playing the "Black Quarterback" position, anyway.) "Vick? He runs too much! Throw more!" (Does 30 total TDs mean anything to you? No? Thought not.) -General consensus from Philly fans. Well, ones that only like them when they're in the playoffs.
Actually, I couldn't be happier right now. I had a chance to get Peyton over Brees, but for some reason I chose Brees.
Best. Decision. Ever. I feel so bad for the guy who has 'em (AKA: My brother
)
I am in a ffl, and of course today I had to play the Steelers D instead of Eagles,gawd.

Erm, I have to partially disagree with this. My dad and I are die hard Eagles fans, and we don't want him running as much, because
he will eventually get hurt. Simple as that. And we always downed McNabb cuz he couldn't win a Super Bowl. Anyway, Bears lookin good so far, and OMG Ravens pwning Steelers? WOW.
And LOL Sparta, your brother got the short end of the stick eh XD?
Wow...poor Cults...34-0 last time I checked. I guess without Manning that team really can't support itself (Especially if his replacement is Kerry Collins
)
Giants play in a few! Can't wait to see my 2nd fav team in blue! Besides, they're facing Washington, so a big 9/11 remembrance.
Jets tonight at 8 Vs...Cowboys? Sanchez has to be on his game, and with new targets like Burris going deep, should make for an exciting matchup.
Lol. This season will be the same as the others. The Bears will start of dominating, almost o the super bowl, and then they'll flop.... Lets hope it DOES turn out different.
Derp. BaibaiDalton. Hot DAMN! Bear down, Chicago, Matt Ryan is TOAST. DETROIT! 27 points and counting! Colts, no Manning, no playoffs. Damn you Flacco. Eh, Dream Team is winning. Expected. I was talking about. Bandwagon fans. The ones who continually boo McNabb? Also, the Rams are getting better. Not bad for playing the Eagles.
Wait, what happened to Matt Ryan? Did I miss something?
Ugh, Big Ben got me 5 freaking points. What. The. Hell. THAT'S IT?! URGGLE.
In my other league, Brees got me 27. THAT'S more like it.
Nah, he's just on his butt. Has been all day. Andy Dalton broke his wrist, and Ben looks rusty. Ah, well. Frankly, the Cowboys need to play Kitna, he won more games than Romo did last year. Also, Dane Schazenbacher looks BEAST. Second effort goes a long way in this town. And Cutler looks GOOD. Only one pick. Ten INTs this year, methinks.
You have high hopes for him. Cutler's good, but that's just your heart speaking you Bears fan
. At least I can admit Sanchez sucks, and needs to improve A LOT this season. We need to get into the playoffs because we won the division, not the wild card. It should help relieve pressure, and gives us one less game.
Maybe, but he is the only Bears QB to pass for 3000+ yards twice. Beats Luckman and McMahon, too.
Wow. If you're gonna have McNabb, you have to turn the show over to McNabb. 11 attempts IS NOT TURNING THE SHOW OVER, Vikes. Adrian Peterson is not God. He can't beat the Chargers alone, guys. This should have been an easy win, but really, all it did was give the Bears some breathing room.
^
im glad the vikings lost cause it not only gives the bears room but it gives the packers room too (lol im a packer fan)
Ugh, my poor bros in green...
17-7. Have been too busy texting my half-girlfriend to watch it, but saw the score. And judging from what I saw, looks like a pretty one sided game. Has Sanchez been playing good, or has he been choking and throwing to the wrong team like he used to do?
Sanchez did okay. ROMO IS A CHOKER! Two minutes, tie game, in NY on 9/11. Great time to win, no? Apparently, Romo disagrees. Play one- Completion for 12 yards or so. Next? PICK. Jets win it, ending the 241-game win streak of the Cowboys on games that they enter the 4th up 14 or more.
Ha! Yes! I was so psyched to see that they won! It was awesome to have a pick at the end, and how about Nick Folks 50 yarder?! Stunning!
Patriots soundly beat the Dolphins last night. Unfortunately, Brady looked good. DAMN U
Hah, yeah Brady got his prowess back, but you have to admit, Ben hit 500 LONG before Brady did, and he looked much cooler when he did. (20 yard Game winning TD with 0:02, baby!) Essentially, Ben did it 6 YEARS before Brady. Also, everyone who said "It's the pre-season!" when the Pats got spanked by the Detroit offense? Yeaaaah, it didn't matter. Stafford still rocks. Also...What happened in the Raiders game? I missed it.
So happy to see Romo choke.
You say this as if he doesn't do it often. Stop with the Romo experiment, use Jon Kitna, and draft, say, Luck or even Darron Thomas next year. Hell, Jordan freakin' Jefferson will do! Also, Kellen Moore is still in college, but he's just as good a QB as anyone in the NFL. And don't come to me with that "Cupcake schedule" crud, Boise State just soundly spanked Georgia, who, by the way, is an SEC team. Eat it, my buds in the SEC.
God damn, the Falcons got absolutely crushed by the Bears on Sunday... :c I was hoping my home team would be able to pull a miracle there, but alas, they didn't. A couple slip-ups can really cost you. D:
