Wow! Everyone is picking the Bears so far. Hard to believe.

Josh McCown > Caleb Hanie


I didn't at first... but after choosing all the rest of the games and really thinking about it for a while. I figured that they would really want to go out with a win, McCown would do his damnist in his final appearance to prove he should remain as a backup, and Vikings are the worst team we've played since Cutler got hurt.

However, I still think it will be a close game and Bears have a good chance to win or lose. The ending of this season couldn't have gone worse. From this point on (in this season) I'm rooting for the Texans or the Niners.

As far as The Kansas City-Denver and Chicago-Minnessota  it is pretty much a toss up in my eyes. 

Lijigga I agree Carrie Underwood is a pretty fine woman, but Romo likes to get a new blonde almost every season. I suspect he will divorce his current blonde and get a new one. The man just cannot help himself.

The Lions could easily win as the Packers have pretty much said they will rest some starters, but I still think it will be a heavily fought battle because it is a rivalry game.

Go San Diego!!! And get back to not throwing interceptions Tebow you must not have prayed hard enough the last two weeks. 



There is now a Tim Tebow comic book.

I, for once, am speechless.

Matt Flynn set a couple of Packers team records. 6 TDs and 480 pass yards in a single game. Stafford blew the chance for a 1,000 combined passing yards game, therefore the Lions will go to the Superdome next week (Atlanta is already up 42-7 at half time).

The Patriots turn a 21-0 deficit into a 21-49 win. This is a crazy week for sure.

I woke up really late and saw the pats score and assumed it was half-time, did a double-take when I realized the Bills scored 21 unanswered in the first quarter...

I honestly think Matt Flynn did a great job of arguing against Rodgers being MVP. I think it should go to Brees or Brady, mvp should go to the player that means the most for a team. Packers just have so many weapons on offense that an average qb could still have a pretty good record with that team. I'm not saying they would go 15-1 but still pretty decent. Now take out Brady or Brees and I shudder to think what would happen to those teams.

Happy new year! That said.

MEH... The AFC West does not deserve to have a team in the playoffs. I hate coach Jon Fox's ultra conservative coaching style.

I will say now I hope San Francisco wins the Superbowl because I am sick of seeing the same teams win it like the Patriots, Steelers, and I certainly do not want a Packer repeat.

The best thing of this week we be that the raiders my least favorite team will not make the playoffs.
Good to see the bears go out on top for our Chicago fans on here.

It's been a while since I've been here. Holiday stuff made me miss the last game, and I'm not too sad about that. This game was rough too. The defense did a great job of holding the Chiefs down, but the offense couldn't get anything done. A lot of credit has to go to the Chiefs defense for playing really well against everything the Broncos did.

@ chocoloco; That's bothered me too. It's like the whole team fell apart in the last three weeks, but it wasn't helped by the play calls. Something like 10 consecutive running plays in the last game on first down. Anyway, Tebow didn't do well at all in the last three games either, being the source of most of the turnovers. The AFC West is pretty terrible this season, but I still hope the Broncos get into the playoffs. Just because we've had what, one playoff win since Elway left? Maybe we can shoot for another one. I doubt we'd go farther than that though.

Funny I missed last weeks game too!

Yeah, they ran toomuch and not going for that long field goal in the 3rd and just kicking it away to play the field possesion game. I know it is nice that the miracle of the week is that a loss still got us in when the record was so average. One more game, but some how I see it as one that might be emberacing to watch. The Steelers have a history of messing up the broncos bad in playoffs, and this looks like it will be a repeat. All I hope is that there is no blowout next week and we can take a victory out of improving over last year.

Well, there's always that. But it can't get that much worse than the blowout losses to the Patriots, Bills, and Lions, can it? Either way, I'm still excited to see how the team starts next season. With a full offseason to work on problems (Elway working with Tebow has to be a good thing), no McDaniels to destroy the defense, and the talent that's already there, I'm hoping that they can do even better next season.

Well yeah, I am not ready to talk next season. There is still great football to be seen. Even if it is not my team all the way. 

Also a blowout loss in the post season is remebered a lot longer than a regular season loss we will see.

John Elway helping to pick new players is a good thing to me. And you could not ask for a better quarterback to work with a young quarterback than Elway.

Tebow magic stroke again. Now he wins even when he loses.

Three weeks ago I told you that the Chargers can still make the playoffs and they would have if it hadn't been for the beating they got in Detroit. Now we are looking at a situation where one snap messed up San Diego's season. You know, when Rivers fumbled in field goal range at the end of their game against the Chiefs. Or they could have converted their field goal against the Broncos.

There were angels in the endzone for the Broncos again. San Diego just turned the season around a little to late. Even if SD had made the playoffs it still would only be on an average season so I wouldn't have minded. Anything but the Raiders or Cheifs. Alot of wins are about very small things and so really the best teams were not in the AFC West this year because too many small thing made or broke games. Not with the pack.

I will be going for Detriot, by the way. I hope they get to play the Cheese brains.
