Um. Justin Gage? Bernard Berrian? Mark Bradley?

Yeah, your guess is as good as mine...and are any of them good enough to be #2...?

Meh, David Terrell was supposedly the shit too and he did squat for the Bears when the drafted him and etc.

Rogers has bust all over him IMO. Here's hoping one of the WRs of Bradley, Gage, or Berrian steps up.

While we're at it, why not throw in Cade McNown? Or Mark Colombo?



Here's hoping Benson's a good one...but, so far, he's all mouth and not much else.

3 out of 5 Chicago Tribune writers picked Green Bay over the Bears today! Apparently no one is impressed by the offense whatsoever. Interesting, Chicago returns all 22 starters from last year.

Only if they start winding up the "way-back" machine to their Super Bowl Shuffle days. A championship team usually consists of a decent or better offense and a damn good defense. Da Bears have the defense part of the equation down but have no clue on offense

Shaddap. Us Chicagoans are a cynical and negative bunch.

Jones is the better runner but Benson has the future,he just needs to dedicate himself better(shape/attitude)...........Hey but Tommie Harris is a keeper,if he keeps blockers off Urlacher that front 7 will be special.

Don't underestimate Jax. They're solid defensively and when their offense is clicking it's not too shabby.

Cuz, everyone's in love with the Tuna and what TO can do for them?


That being said, the Jaguars finished with a quiet 12-4 record last year behind a very efficient offense (like one of the fewest in turnovers) and good defense. So, I'm not surprised they are winning the ballgame so far.



Oh look. Favre just threw an INT again.

Should we set the over/under for games before TO goes OJ on Drew for not throwing at him enough?

One of the most underrated teams. D-line is solid. But Fred Taylor needs to stop getting hurt. Heck, they beat us last year...they must be good :wink:


Anyways, I hope Trent Green is okay. That was some pretty nasty shit, and he seems like a nice guy. Hate to see that kind of stuff happen...

Guess they realize they overpaid for Nate Burleson(bust) and probably Darrell Jackson is going to be out longer than expected.

I think the overwhelming 9-6 win over the Lions might have something to do with it also..
