I will not be listening or watching todays game
For the first time since the Patriots game in 2006. I have to photograph a fashion show all afternoon. Kind of sucks. Hopefully the Bears will play well and beat a Jags team that looks quite awful like they just don’t care anymore. GO BEARS! I will checking in on my cell phone a lot, haha.
Fire Ron Turner!!!
Fire Angelo!!

You are missing football for a fashion show?! The ignominy!
We’ll have an extra one for ya!
May the wind be always at your back, and may your placekicker have icewater in his veins.
hopefully they can pull it off today, it's a must win game..

Would love to see Chris Williams get some real playing time
today… and the rest of the year. St. Clair is backup material anyway, so play your #1 pick.
I'm not going to even bother trying to update this sig everyday anymore... that's what the standings column on ESPN is for.

wasn't there a ref standing right in front of that play....
I love that there’s instant replay in the nfl, but it seems like the quality of reffing has decreased knowing that they can get a call wrong and change it to the right one. instant replay is like a crutch to these refs.

refs are suppossed to be trained to see the play
I give refs credit when there’s someone blocking their line of vision, but on that play the sideline ref was close to the play, and his line of vision was not blocked. He should have gotten the play right on the first try.

6-0 and they have the ball with 7 minutes left in the half. All is right in the world (for now).
they just got a fumble and it's Detroit's ball

Can someone clarify the division tiebreaking rules
if minnesota loses to the lions and we beat the packers and end up with the same division record and overall record, who has the tiebreak and why?
If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined.
Two Clubs
1. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs).
2. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.
3. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games.
4. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference.
5. Strength of victory.
6. Strength of schedule.
7. Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed.
8. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed.
9. Best net points in common games.
10. Best net points in all games.
11. Best net touchdowns in all games.
12. Coin toss

another
great second half of ineffectivity on offense.
Defense gonna get tired again ...
will start giving up some big runs, I imagine. Hopefully not, we’ll see.

there's still a lot of time left....
but if jacksonville does come back, i’ll put it on our douche bag coaching. I hate the idea of playing to protect the lead. You have to go out and win it.
