The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

Falcons do what they do best to gift the Bears a win.

I had no idea the Bears signed Foles. So of course they won after bringing him on for Trubisky. My opinion of him may be coloured by his Superbowl season, but why on earth would you play Trubisky when you had Foles on your roster?

Joe Montana, still comes through in clutch situations.

To lull the Falcons into a false sense of security obviously :-)

Bears moved to the late slot. Great news 🙂

Why are they in Orange? Me no like, the classic Bears strip is the best in the NFL by far.

[cdbearsfan]

They quite often play in orange, I'm not a fan. The blue traditional strip and white change outfit are both class.

Anyway, not good today, but it is too much to keep expecting to recover 4th quarter double-digit deficits every game. 3 and 1 is still a good start particularly with how poor the NFC East looks and the extra wildcard spot. 9 and 7 might be enough for the final wildcard spot in the NFC.

And to complete a fantastic 2 days the Packers win again. Like the Villa we now have 2 weeks off, which will be more beneficial to the Packers than Villa due to our mounting injuries to really key players. 7-2 and 4 and 0 what a time to be alive.

[cdbearsfan]

Great win for Da Bears. Imagine how good we might be if we didn't insist on going at least 13 points behind in every game before starting to play!

Stupid article getting both team names wrong.

[ADVILLAFAN]

We finally beat Brady.

Just need to get one over on the Texans now.

Urgh, I'm not a fan of that development.

What are the other reasons for disliking them?
