They did, so whats your point? Its still marked down in the win column and thats just about all that matters. Whooping? Maybe, but anything can happen. Packers homer? Yes.

Real shame, reminds me a lot of Mike Brown. Both left it all on the field and the way they played just took a toll on the body. Hope it isn't as serious as feared, but if it is season ending.. might be time to part ways for the Colts.
Barber was a great fourth quarter back, Cowboys lost him when they made him full time. He just can't run with the same punishing style against a fresh defense and for 4 quarters. He would still however, be a nice compliment to New England as someone mentioned.
Housh has been and always will be overrated. Can't believe Seattle actually was paying him that much. Oh well now they can develop some of their younger prospects at WR.
Wow.. you are fun to wind up. Post one sentence on Big Ben and you start reeling off a couple paragraphs. Didn't realize you had such a "man-crush" on senor Ben.
I agree, I wouldn't want to acknowledge the starting QB of a team I support was a disgusting human being. Oh noes.. I'm a homer or a moron, cause I don't agree with the 'mighty' 'BlackgoldII'. I'm not sure I can sleep tonight, golly gee you're crushing me.
I'll just let you continue on in fairy land, where just because "Big Ben" was convicted doesn't mean everyone knew he was guilty.
Slow down and read. I said his 2008 numbers were "quite a bit better" than his first year with the Bears. Not that he was "quite a bit better" than the QB's listed. Of course whenever a counter point comes up.. its just "blah blah blah" and I'm sure the QB's listed all my smart decisions and their interceptions were just innocent accidents.
Well with that "tried and true" line of thought, any quarterback with more than ~15 ints+ in a season is trash. Oh wait.. in that same year Brees had 17, "Big Ben" had 15, Farve had 22, Romo 14, and Warner had 14. Cutler threw for 4,500+ yards, 25 TD's and 18 ints. I'd be more than happy with those numbers.. quite a bit better than 3600+ yards, 27 TD's and 26 int's.
I agree with the Jeff George comparison, as far as massive talent that has yet to produce. Cutler however doesn't destroy the locker room like George and his ego isn't really large. You can't say Cutler isn't a competitor after seeing him dive for a TD and get helicoptered.
Maybe he won't single handily take Chicago to a super bowl, but if they put a nice line and receivers.. along with a new defensive scheme.. I'd say he'd at least be a strong contributor. That and I think Cutler was a perfect fit for Shannahan's offense, making use of his ability to throw off the bootleg etc etc.
For now.. all I can hope is he gets a little help by Chicago finally benching the Devin Hester experiment. I would flat out guarantee Cutler throws under 20 picks if Aromashodu is his #1 and Hester was in the slot if that.
Obvious this was the plan all along, Lebron just wanted to milk all the attention he could. The game of basketball would truly be better off with LBJ in Cleveland. =/
Meh who cares, take him off punts.. Bears already ruined the greatest return man the NFL had seen. All to get a mediocre slot receiver..

Feel free to discuss Cutler's lying, whining etc etc.. At least he can keep it in his pants and doesn't need to lower himself to sexual assualt...
Big Ben just makes horrible decisions with women.
Big Ben is known as a creep off the field.
Congrats on that!
