Then again, Jay Cutler is a career 17-20 QB who has never had a winning season as a QB or been in a playoff game.
I guess he'll get to mark both off his list this year.
lol
It's laughable to call 3-1 a chicago a potential playoff team?
I think it will be tough for Chicago to make the playoffs....it will more than likely have to be a wildcard and they have a tougher road the rest of the year compared to say a team like Atlanta who still has 5 games against TB Wash and Buf. and carolina who like Tenn seems to have fallen apart. Or Arizona who still get to play Seattle twice Detriot once, the rams twice, tenn once. Just seems like Chicago has a tougher road to the playoffs than the other teams in the NFC so to say for a fact that Chicago will make the playoffs this year is laughable in my personal opinion.
I don't think it's a sure thing, but being confident about a 3-1 in the NFC, coming off a year where they were 1 game away from a playoff spot isn't exactly outlandish. I will give you that. If the 9ers weren't playing so well and Atl wasn't playing as good as they are then I think it would be a no brainer that CHI would be in the playoffs or even if either of those teams played as tough a schedule as Chi does the rest of the year then I'd give the edge to Chicago but the best teams don't always make the playoffs because of the schedule they play compared to the teams they are competing against for that spot.

Singletary had done great things, but they are far from a sure thing. The falcons will prolly win their division, prolly the vikes, arizona/seattle (maybe with hasselbeck), and the Giants. Redskins blows, Dallas is so-so. Eagles are legimate wildcard team. I doubt a wild card comes out of the west or south. I think the Bears and Packers are the most likely candidate for the 3rd spot.

enough said. We all know Kyle isn't the best QB in the NFL, and isn't the most talented guy on the field either. But, he can manage a game, has a decent arm and doesn't turn the ball over often. His record speaks for itself, and he IS a starting QB in the NFL so someone must believe in him.

Yeah, he does act like a jack ass. No argument here. I remember meeting him once at Harry's and I wanted to shank him. Acting like a total douche............

maybe if he didn't act like such an asshole jerk, he wouldn't catch so much crap He makes millions of dollars a year and goes out and parties while not really caring if people take his picture or not. Big deal. He'd be a bigger jerk if he didn't let people take his picture and only worried about PR shit.
I'm assuming you've never met the guy.

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."

I've talked to plenty that have and the 100% consensus is he's a complete asshole. Even your fellow furnace builders have said so and they've met him.
funny how other NFL QB's (sans Matt leinart) aren't getting their pictures taken while getting drunk, hitting on skanks and flipping people off. Let me know when you see your wet dream, Peyton Manning doing that.
Now resume your blind homerism and hero worship. The guys an ass.
