As long as the Cardinals win, life is good.........kudos to the Cardinals and boy what a difference not having Pro Bowl Linebacker Patrick Willis made for the niner defence. Fitzgerald ate them alive
The Patriots aren't going to make it far into the playoffs this year. Their secondary has too many holes in it.
Obligitory Packers win-loss comment.
That's all well and good, but if every time Brady gets on the field and marches down to the end zone, the defense lets the opposing team do the same, it's time to worry a little.Pats fans should not worry too much about their defense. The NFL nowadays is geared towards offense and lots of points. I strong defense isn't as important as it was 5-10 years ago especially when the offense can drop points like the Patriots can.
The Colts won their Super Bowl four years ago with a historically bad defense. Personally, I couldn't give two farts if the Pats lose the rest of their games, but their bad defense doesn't really concern me as a football fan. Come playoff time, their defense will just need to hold it together well enough so that Tom Brady's 35 points will be enough.That's all well and good, but if every time Brady gets on the field and marches down to the end zone, the defense lets the opposing team do the same, it's time to worry a little.
All it takes is the offense being a little out of sync - which they were in some parts of yesterday's game - and then you don't have a defense that can step up and help out. There were some BIG holes in the zone yesterday, with receivers being 5 yards or more off the nearest defender(s).
Of course, with Gronkowski, all things are possible. In Gronkowski We Trust.
Dude is a monster. I wish I could keep running with 2-3 defensive backs hanging off me.
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_corner/post/Bears-WR-Sam-Hurd-busted-by-federal-agents-in-on?urn=nfl-wp13964Apparently, Chicago Bears receiver Sam Hurd's close personal proximity to Tim Tebow last Sunday in the Bears' overtime loss to the Denver Broncos did nothing to clean up Hurd's act. As reported by many sources, but perhaps in the most up-to-date fashion by Sean Jensen of the Chicago Sun-Times, Hurd was busted on Wednesday by undercover Homeland Security agents after attempting to set up regular purchases of marijuana and cocaine to expand a drug sale system that he already had going..........
According to Jensen's reports, Hurd met with an undercover Homeland Security agent on Wednesday and attempted to set up a system by which he would purchase 5-10 kilograms of cocaine and 1,000 pounds of marijuana per week to distribute in Chicago. Here's the real kicker — according to the complaint, Hurd said that he was already distributing four kilos of cocaine per week in the greater Chicago area with a co-conspirator, but that this amount wasn't enough.
"our" offense? Are you in/from Chicago? What part?great, another hit to our offense
what a dumb POS
"our" offense? Are you in/from Chicago? What part?
ps: dump POS, I totally agree.
Maybe he should hold another live practice so no one will show up again.So how long after Hurds bust did it take TO,s agent to call the Bears GM?
What kind of crap weed was he selling in Chicago at $450/lb?great, another hit to our offense
what a dumb POS

my thoughts exactly. its probably nasty mexican brick weed. it looks like his parts of Chicago might be dry for a bitWhat kind of crap weed was he selling in Chicago at $450/lb?
fixed.Mmm, brick packed mexican dirt weed. Not worth the fuel in my Bic
he'd have better luck at his second job in baltimore.Safe to say Sam Hurd may miss the start of training camp next season?
I'm soooo jealous, that must have been an awesome game to be at. The game was blacked out so couldn't watch the Bills whomp the Donkeys.I was at Ralph Wilson Stadium yesterday... what an excellent Christmas present!
That looked like a 5-0 Bills team. Tebow screwed up some, yes, but coverage was tight, the O-line stayed in their lanes to keep him in the pocket, and the defense made good plays on the ball.
Sum it all up,
Atlanta: Is scary.
Saints: Better hope Drew Brees doesn't get hurt against Detroit.
Last week the Saint blew out the Falcons. Check out the Saints over the past five weeks. That team is scary. Any team that loses its quarterback is in for a hard time just ask the Bears.
The same Texans that ended up 10-6 with a fourth quarterback in the game? Do you watch football on TV a lot?Lions & Texans: The world must be ending they made the playoffs.
You have to drink considerably faster tooWith the dvr I can watch every play of a game in about an hour.
But that said I pretty much only watch the Pats. Who are these people that can watch 20 hours of NFL a week? I do listen to sports radio pretty much all day while working tho.With the dvr I can watch every play of a game in about an hour.
