Brees is throwing, on average, 100 more passes per season.
That works out to a TD every 18 passes and an Int every 36.
Rodgers gets a Td every 16 passes and an int every 50.
MPE
Today Rodgers is at 4 TDs 0 Ints and Brees had 2 and 1. 24 and 3 on the year to 21 and 11. Not complicated here guys.
Rodgers was 21 of 26 for a TD every 6.5 pass attempts.
Brees was 27 of 36 for his average of a Td every 18 and an int every 36.

Ravens marching down 92 yards on the Steelers Defense and getting the game winner was pretty awesome.
I wish the Ravens played every game like its against the Steelers.
Now they just have to breakdown the upstart Bengals in 2 weeks. And not lay any more eggs for the rest of the season.

As far as teams that still exist go, the Packers were the first team to go undefeated in the NFL. But this was because ties didn't count as a loss or a win and was negated. The Packers had the record of 12-0-1, with the tie being a game where nobody scored points. Seriously the score was 0 to 0.

Aside from forte fumbling twice, Da Bears, not sure how they were 8 point underdogs, handled Vick and the eagles pretty well.
And cutler was not sacked at all.
now the big question:
Who will win Sunday, the Bears, or the Lions?
The sportsbook has the lions winning by 6
and the over/under is at 47

The big issue I had with Mondays game wa the eagles giving the Bears 3, yes 3, free first downs.... which led to the bears scoring 3 times.
I did like Andy's little dig at the officials over Babin being pushed into Cutler on one of those calls.
But you simply cannot give the other team free firsts. That is how you lose. Take those away and the score could be different.

That was a very weak call, too.

The Bears should be able to handle the Lions, who have lost 2 of their last 3 (their one win was versus the Tebow start). The Lions won the first one, but to get the sweep, they'll have to beat Chicago in Chicago.

Well now the sportsbook changed the line and the bears are favored over the lions by 3 points.
This week should have some good match-ups, here are my predictions:
Raiders over the Chargers.
Steelers over the Bengals
Broncos over the Chiefs
Colts over the Jaguars
Cowboys over the Bills
Bucks over the Texans
Panthers over the Titans
Dolphins over the Redskins
Saints over the Falcons
Rams over the Browns
Ravens over Seahawks
Bears over the Lions
Giants over 49ers
Patriots over the Jets
Vikings over the Packers.

Can we now stop pretending that Rodgers isn't playing on an entirely different level right now? Seriously, he's up to 28 TDs and 3 Ints...in just 9 games.
Vick gets cracked ribs and decides to play hero.
Jackson gets a bug up his butt over money and decides not to play.
Steve Smith gets a start and drops the ball twice.
Asomugha and Samuel get picks on passes thrown to Fitzgerald... And Castillo decides to cover him with a safty in the fourth.
For the Eagle to make the playoffs this year they have to win out..... not likely with NYG and NE in the next 2 weeks.... AND something goes horribly wrong for 2 of the following teams.... Lions, Bears, Cowboys, Giants.
So yeah looks like they are playing for draft position now.

If Vick is benched for injury, Vince gets the start against NYG...... I would rather see Kafka start.... He has a better arm, but less experience.. and knows the system.

Yeah Flynn isn't necessarily too good, but should it come down to Flynn I can see him becoming a much more confident QB in time. Ponders on the other hand seems like a force to be reckoned within two years or so, I hate seeing McNabb on the bench though. Its just that you grow up with all of these quarterbacks and when you see them benched its really kind of sad because they used to be good and now they're just getting money to sit there. Sure they may not feel bad for getting paid for sitting down, but damn it just feels odd.
The Packers are probably the stupidest franchise in the NFL.
You wear fething cheese on your heads.
Please. I hope Rodgers breaks his hand, which is definitely possible the way the Vikings defense got to him yesterday.
Bears going on a tear, as I expected. Buried the Eagles season for good, and OBLITERATED the upstart Lions.
Going to laugh once these undefeated Packers walk into Chicago at the end the season, and get smacked down by the Bears. Their defense is getting exposed, and once they face a quarterback that isn't handicapped (Rivers..what is wrong with you) like the new matured Cutler is, they'll get that cheese grated right off their heads.
In other Football related news, Texans will win the division, but crumble in the playoffs without Schaub. Oklahoma's season is very likely over now that Broyles is out for the year, which saddens me to no end.
I called the Oregon/Stanford game correctly, which opens up the #2 spot for Oklahoma rather perfectly. If we can, by some miracle, win all the rest of your games, including the Bedlam at OSU, its extremely likely we will get that #2 spot.

In all honesty... I would love to see the eagles trade Vick and a 2nd rounder to Miami for that top 5 pick they will be getting... then take Weeden from OkSt. Have them fight for the job in the off season.
They seriously need to address the lack of drive and thought that is plaguing the team. 11 penalties for 97 yards is complete stupidity.
Vick is making bad decisions.
And so are the offensive coaches.... don't tell me they didn't see that Vick was struggling.
Not using one of the top running backs (arguably) in the NFL against one of the worst run defenses is assinine.

I "ride these loser Packers" because the Bears still suck.
The Packers are the most wholesome team in the NFL. They're the only team that is non-profit, the only teamed that is actually owned by the community, and the only team where your grandmother would have to put you on a waiting list when you were born in order to get tickets to the home game. Its illegal to sell your tickets to anyone else and have to sell them back to the team. People actually include them in their wills to pass them along to family members.
There traditions are also amazing, what other team has their players ride the bikes of kids who show up to the stadium? Yes the Packers players pick a bike and a kid at the start of the year and ride their bikes to the training field, even Raji rode a kid's bike. The Lambeau Leap is famous and was created by the Packers, this not only made the game interesting for fans but brought many back after the first NFL strike.
The Bears have done nothing remarkable in NFL history.
