Green Bay just showed us how to do it. Ryan Grant is a maniac…and I think he runs alot like Addai does…the quick stops, changing direction. I don’t know what the pass/run ratio was last night, but Green Bay didn’t run a whole lot. Minnesota has a great run D. But I think if we mix it up and take the opportunities to run (however slight they may be) we can definitely win.

I’m sure they are looking at the tape from last night as we speak. I have a feeling they will take this game more seriously than they did Chicago. We should know by now, there are no automatic wins…every time they get their head in that mode, we lose.

This stuff about the poor preparation really pisses me off. When you’ve got so many injuries, a banged up O line and a bunch of stars re-finding their feet after injury, these are reasons to plan better and longer, not to treat it like week 6 of frickin pre season. You knew the bears were going to bring it, you did not need to be a psychic. The manner of how we lost is what annoys me, there just seemed to be a lack of intensity (primarily from the coaches) and as admitted there was definitely no well thought out gameplan. The coaches owe the team and the fans this week and I expect them to deliver, TD is a top man and he will get it sorted. At least we should all be thankful we’re not raiders fans right now, i mean did you see that horror show last night! Great showing from Jay ‘no cake for me please’ Cutler and well, good luck to all raiders season ticket holders (at least your cheerleaders are hot)

BBS: I gotta totally disagree with you on the 4th down call. Your down, your defense hasn’t really stopped the Bears all night, you have a good offense that is suppose to be the strength of the team, your at midfield, you should go for it. The problem is the play call and the personnel. Dom has NEVER been a good short yardag runner in my opinion. SO either put in Hart and power foward or try a high percentage short pass. It was the play call that was bad not the decision in my mind. Of course I’m a believer in the TMQ “Rarely if ever Punt” philosophy.

I missed the Raiders game too but I think most of their offensive numbers came in the 4Qtr, when Denver was playing VERY soft definsively I suspect.

I’d never ever wish Tom Brady’s injury on anyone including Brady…

EXCEPT Bill Simmons.

That said, I think the Colts and Minny are in for a slobberknocker this weekend.

Chicago took care of business in Indy. They suprised many with the win.

Did anyone else seem to think that Orton was making a ton of audibles that wouldn’t have been possible at the Dome? The guy was practically giving dissertations at the line of scrimmage.

The Colts will bounce back.

Simmons is a pop culture machine and I get a lot of enjoyment out of his writing regarding wrestling.

He’s used up the Karate Kid a bit though.

Bottom line is he “Really hates the Colts.”

I actually got a “Yep…these are my readers” out of him once.

Let’s all make a concerted effort to properly use the the correct form of “you are” or “you’re” as opposed to “your.”

I remember when my high school english teacher made me stay after class to punish me for that……Mrs. Debra Lafave…….school will never be the same.

Was your teacher’s last name pronounced FARV?

Just kidding of course, I’d never poke fun at you’re…no wait…your post.

All in good fun.

That would be twice as hot!!!!

Kudos to good grammar!

Did anybody come away after watching that game, with a sense of dread? The NFL is upside down, cats and dogs are living together in harmony……..What is going on? I have a strange feeling about this season….especially after Dungy’s comments…..We are beat up…I am going to sacrifice a chicken tonight, for power, for our season…..where’s a KFC around here?

That sent him the HAHA SUCK IT email?
