At least there's one good team in Chicago.

The Bears better do a better job then they are doing right now. If they do not start playing some offense, the will lose this game. I always said it was too early to start getting tickets for the Super Bowl.

Peace

Or maybe the Arizona Cardinals have the worst offensive line in the history of the NFL. The Edge had 6 carries for 25yds on the first drive. He finished with 55yds/36 carries. That's 30 rushes for 30 yds after the opening drive. That is pitifull. All that talent at the skill positions and a pretty good, ball-hawking, hard-hitting defense. All of it is going to waste b/c their O-line couldn't create holes against the Northern Arizona University.

Arizona better trade up for the best OL in the next year's draft and sign at least 2 OL in free agency.

Nah. It's bad, but not that bad. Heck, their O-line isn't even as bad as last year's Houston line. David Carr spent more time on his back last year than Heidi Fleiss. And neither one of those is as bad as the first installment of the Tampa Bay Bucs' line when they went 0-14.

Jim Fassel resigned (or got fired) from the Ravesn as Offensive Coordinator. Word is the defense mutinied against his play calling during the Denver game.

Geeze, Mick, your Lions finally won a game.

They beat the Bills.

Hmmmmmmm......:confused:

Does that count as a win? It's kinda like shooting a dead man.

Yeah, Lions sorta scored more, but I don't think they beat the Bills. QB Kitna has been sacked 22 times in 6 games... and the offensive line has 3-4 guys filling in for injuries.:o

How to cure the "62-yard FG" headache...
 
As a life-long Cowboy hater I couldn't help but enjoy last night's debacle. In reality, as an Eagles' fan, I should have been rooting for Dallas b/c we have the tie-breaker on them right now, but I just couldn't find it in my heart to cheer for them.

A Cowboy loss and panic at the QB position is great Tylenol to help recover from my Tampa Bay agony.

I never have a problem rooting for the Cowboys to lose.

The only agony greater than that of an Eagles fan is that of us Tampa fans. We have panic at the QB spot. An offense that is consistently outscored by our defense, and a kicker who's longest FG to this point was a 30 yarder. My only explanation for Sunday was that God has a sense of humor and a condo in Clearwater on the Gulf of Mexico and happened to be at Raymond James Stadium Sunday.

Yeah, but at least you have a Super Bowl ring to console you on your really bad days. I'm an Eagle AND Viking fan, so I'm 0-6. :(

As a life-long Cowboy fan (even during the Aikman's 1-15 rookie season), this game made my head hurt. IMHO, Tony Romo is not the answer to the Cowboy's problem. I believe, in time, he will be a major part of fixing what is wrong. But first, the Cowboys need to fix the offensive line so they can protect the QB, regardless of who is back there.
