That's alright cheat away rol,we don't mind

and i'm not sure you should allow MNF changes from now because people can abuse it if say they want to change to be the same as everyone else for the week after the main lot of games,what do you think

It's not like you would have a choice anyway.

But seriously, this doesn't make a significant difference in the outcome.


no i know,actually it would be good to change if it was tight and you needed just to stay level to get to the playoffs,useful

Bears won't lose more than 3 more games this season and I'm not saying which ones I think.

Bears will win the division. I am not sure if GB or Minn will get a wildcard. Lions have collapsed.

You know what I see when I look at the Bears schedule? They haven't played against a good team since they lost to the Packers. They had a really easy schedule so far.

The Lions won their last two games while the Vikings lost their last two. Clearly, you have no idea what's actually going on in the NFC North.

You know what I see when I look at GB? injuries after injuries and still quite a few big teams to play.

CHI is healthy and while they played quite a few losing teams, they haven't lost to one. (GB and Colts, what happenend?) In fact, with the exception of CAR, they've destroyed them all with massive leads.

DET is not good. Their last two wins were a lucky win at CLE and solid win at JAC. Let's see how this week at MINN goes.

MINN is good but had a bad couple of weeks against at a very good SEA game and pathetic play with TB... not unlike GB loss to Colts.

GB is hurt and just lost their biggest person on defense for at least a couple weeks. Thanks to the bye they won't get a loss next week, but then they come back to Detroit. Sure DET isn't great, but its still a divisional rival and GB will still have injured people.

So why are you asking what happened during GB@IND when you already know of the injuries? Three players went out in that game and coupled with a bad start into the second half you are suddenly facing a team that sees a chance to win. But unlike CHI against CAR, GB didn't luck out in the end.

We don't know how good CHI really is, because their schedule has been so light. We'll see in the next two weeks. They'll probably get outscored by more than 40 points.

DET is very much so-so. They beat PHI, not CLE.

MIN is not good. They had a lucky run and are back to earth now.

Regarding GB, if you take another look at my fantastic table, you'll see that they are predicted to lose their first two games after their bye week. But the Pack will go to the playoffs. As it should be.

Well your fantastic table is missing bolded on Chicago's HOU, GB, and @Detroit games.

GB will also lose in CHI.

MINN will win DET and @STL

DET will lose@MINN, @CHI and @ATL

Otherwise the rest of your stuff is ok.

I'd argue it's Minnesotta that's gone and collapsed. They've gone from 4-1 to 5-4, and Ponder manages to look worse every week. The Lions have that reversed, and they're looking increasingly competent (I use that word deliberately) as they go.

Amp, get in here quick! Superchunk's making the Bears' fans look bad!

Nah, I think its just hte latest games and the teams they happened to play more than anything else. I was referring to collapsed for detroit in a larger view from last season to this and their expectations. But it was likely a bad choice of words.

Already losing faith in the Bears? Not too long ago you were expecting a 13-3 season, now it's down to 12-4.

Also, your anti-GB and pro-MIN bias sickens me. Do you have no self-respect at all? Don't support the Viqueens.

The 13-3 was in our PM and I did say I had 50/50 on a few games. So I was more giving here with the 12-4 statement.

I don't support either of them... but GB is first on my hate list.



Texans in the SuperBowl? The chances of that are 1 to 1 million.
Matt Schaub is terrible, they have a bad offense going on there. I'm going to say the Giants because every Giants fan knows come playoff time it's Elite Manning time.
The 4 teams that could make the Super Bowl are: 49ers,Giants,Broncos,Patriots.



VICK WITH THE TOUCHDOWN THROW!!!
