The Bears Are Who I Thought They Were!

How do you force 5 turnovers and still lose?

Rex Grossman 15/36, No TD, 3 INT, and a fumble for good measure. Oh, and that Rex Grossman injury watch? He did hurt his hand today, but remained in the game. Remarkably, was able to maintain his level of ineffectiveness after his injury.


A team that reads TMQ.

The Titans did exactly what you have to do when losing by 21 in the 4th, on 4th down--go for the score and try to win, not settle for a field goal to deny your opponent a shut out. The Giants make 2 boneheaded plays on 4th downs for the Titans, giving them first downs. Manning makes terrible interceptions, and it's hard to believe the Giants have a winning record.



Who may have the best passer rating in NFL history?

LaDainian Tomlinson. 146.8
6/9 for 5 TD and no picks.



And it's official.

There are 5 legitimately scary Super Bowl contenders. And they are all in the AFC:
1. Chargers
2. Colts
3. Ravens
4. Patriots
5. Bengals

These AFC playoffs are shaping up to be incredible, while the NFC playoffs look to be a snoozer.


Michigan could mop the floor with USC

USC is not very good, and lost to a not very good team. Michigan is very good and lost to the #1 team. So why is Michigan being denied a rematch on a neutral field? Ohio State beats USC by double digits while Michigan easily wins their BCS bowl game.


The Centaur

Larry Johnson is a beast (tell me something I don't know).

Key Stat from Thanksgiving Night:
KC rush yds: 223
DEN rush yds: 38

The way it looks now, the Chiefs have the inside track for a wild card spot, and the right to lose on the road to a much better AFC team. But a playoff berth in Herm's first year, with Larry Johnson just getting started? I'll take it.
