    Is it okay to cheer for the Bears?

    Atlanta is leading their division at 4-7 and they haven't beaten a team outside of it. I think in this case where the division is so bad, maybe divisional record should be overlooked as wins against real NFL teams are more impressive and would more likely merit a playoff spot. That said, it is possible for a 5-11 team to win that division, and I think it'd be hilarious.

    Packers probably have to play both ATL and BUCS still fighting for a playoff spot. #juggernauts

    Weird thing is.... The Bucs actually look like more of a threat.

    Agree. Plus its Lovie versus ARod. He usually slows down the Rodgers O.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I just looked at the schedule for tomorrow.... best slate of Thanksgiving games in years.

    Chicago's going to put it to Detroit followed up by Philly-Dallas and Seattle-San Fran.

    Good thing Applejack has handles of Wild Turkey on super sale this week.

    Love it when divisions beat up on each other.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    I was running ESPN's playoff simulator, and I think the Saints will win the division at 8-8. They have some cupcakes on their schedule and Brees behind center. No one else wins more than 5-6 in the division.

    The Lions will finish 11-5 and the Packers 12-4 (depending on Sunday's game). They'll still at best be the #2 seed behind Arizona (unless they implode).

    So far, an interesting year.
    No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.

    How many Bucs games have you seen? Tampa is atrocious and unfortunately we get all of their games down here.

    It almost feels safe to root for the Bears now. Similar to rooting for the Lions in all previous years, except maybe 1957.

    Lions win and Cowboys loss puts Lions back in wild-card position. Eagles win puts them in #2 position, pending Packers game Sunday.

    Seattle might need that one badly.

    With their 'very weak running game'.

    The Cardinals won't hang onto the Packers.
