Man what happen to the Broncos, they looked like they were a sure thing to make the playoffs this year, they started off 6-0, then lost all the remaining game accept 2, I have to say thought as a Bears fan I'm glad to see this, I didn't want us to get Cutler, & they get Orton, then they make the playoffs.
Right. Orton's a retard, as I noted. It was a good move to dump him. Cutler showed what he could do in the last two games. It's a pity that offense wasn't in sync when it counted. Injuries riddled the defense yet it seemed to also improve late, surprisingly. I'm hoping for continuity next year. If we get Dvoracek, Urlacher, Tillman, Knox, Afalava, Ogunleye, etc, all back and healthy, I like their odds.
In a lot of ways, it was an uncharacteristic year. Usually, the Bears take a bunch of no-talents and get decent performance out of them. This year, they had lots orf raw talent and performed completely inconsistently.
The receiving corps was way too green and the play-calling was suboptimal for Cutler. The D was hampered by a devastated secondary. The team is young, though.
Predictions: GB beats AZ in AZ. Dallas beats Philly AGAIN (they suck, basically).
AFC? Who gives two sh*ts? Bengals and Pats
NFC conf champ? It depends - but I'd say Vikes, since they'll be in a dome. They can't play outside of one but the should either be in the Hubie or Nola's squalor Dome either way. I hope they flushed that thing well since Katrina. Actually, yes, I guess they did. Too bad the plumbing went straight to Houston.
This should set Minnehaha up nicely for Super Bowl Loss #5.
I'm thinking Bolts or the Dolts in the AFC - probably the Dolts.
