I've noticed this season has brought absolutely no comments on anybody in this forum other than the buzz about Favre's new team.
Isn't there anything going on you guys think might be interesting to share or comment about?
I think its been a wonderful season by far. It isn't as "obvious" as some other seasons have been. There have been a thousand surprises. I guess I'm going to start with some things and I hope someone else shres their thoughts.
-First, regarding my team (The Bears), I have to say I find it obvious they made a mistake bringing Cutler here. I ain't saying he isn't an amazing QB, but he has no weapons to shoot at and might not be the most suited for the Bears game. Might have been a better idea to search for a couple of WR and use the pics they used on Cutler to go up in the draft and select a promising QB for the future while Orton still could keep the game going. He has shown he can play. He might not be the most outstanding but is surely doing a hell of a job in Denver, maybe with an inferior team than Chicago. Might that mean the Bears have a coach problem rather than a "line-up" one?
-Drew Brees is an awesome QB. The Saints really look like a SB contender right now. They can crush ANY defense out there, but, unfortunately, Brees has shown he can choke anytime as well. In the other hand, there is Payton Manning, who I don't think knows the definition of "choking". He could have my grand-ma on her wheel chair as a receiver and still she would catch at least a TD pass every game. Even if you hate the Colts, you have to cheer the discipline and constancy Manning has. And thinking Ryan Leaf "almost" got his spot in the draft...
-Isn't it amazing what the Bengals have achieved? I'm not talking about winning to a terrible team as Chicago unhappy, but te fact no one I think would have bet a penny on a 5-2 start.
-Other players who are doing a hell of a job without a lot of publicity: Schaub, Orton, Palmer Rodgers.
-There was a wonderful generation of African-American QBs with McNabb and McNair for example, but this new generation involving Young and Russell just sucks big time.
-Redskins situation is really sad. Watching MNF yesterday I couldn't think of a way to play with less motivation.
Any thoughts?
