First of all, Jay Cutler sucks Frank.

Now, back to my point. The Colts are actually pretty good. Luck has played well, but Manning is outplaying him by a significant margin and would likely be doing so in Indianapolis too.

Now, I'm not saying they should have skipped on Luck, but they could have kept Peyton, drafted Luck, and let him sit for a year.

The only problem is I don't know how bad the salary cap hit would have been by keeping both but I don't think they did that much in free agency anyways.

Is there a case that the Colts should regret sending Manning away?

I dont think they would be. I think they would probably be about as good as the Broncos are right now, and I wouldnt say the Broncos are the super bowl favorite. They'd obviously be much more of a contender, but I doubt they regret sending Manning on his way.

Denver has a good defense. They have a good chance to win the SB this year.

Yeah, they do. But I dont think they have a better chance than the Pats, Texans, 49ers, Falcons, Giants, Bears, or Packers. Those are the 8 best teams in the NFL, and I dont think there's much seperating them besides injuries.

I think after the Texans and 49ers, they have as good a chance as any team. I believe they definitely have a better chance than the Bears.

I think the only reason they have a better chance than the Bears is because the AFC is terrible comoared to the NFC. There's almost no chance anyone other than the Broncos, Pats, or Texans represent the AFC. It could be anyone from the NFC, depending on matchups. The Bears are still a good football team that will be dangerous in the playoffs.

I'm not saying the Bears aren't good, but the problem with the Bears is that they are one dimensional. If the defense does not play well, they are not good enough offensively to win a game. Denvers D can be good enough to win games without a good offense that day(see last season), and their offense is good enough to win games without a good defense that day.

Yeah but many people have the Patriots as the AFC favorite and they have the opposite problem as the Bears. There defense isnt good enough to hold good teams under 20 points, so if their offense doesnt play well, they will lose. Same goes for the Packers. I have my doubts about the 49ers offense and Falcons defense also.

You're crazy if you think the Bears have a better chance at the Super Bowl than the Broncos.

honestly, I don't think they've even got all that great a shot at the playoffs.

I said the Broncos have a slightly better chance because the AFC is weak. You're crazy if you really believe the Bears will miss the playoffs.

No you're crazy.
Bears might lose 3 of the last 4.

No. YOU.
I see losses to Minny at home and GB and possibly Detroit. 3 on the road to finish the season... if they were GOOD I'd hope for winning 2. But they're going to lose to GB. And with 3 road games? I bet they're road dogs except az.

Are they road dogs this week? No way Minny should be favored against Chicago. They'll destroy Arizona, and go 2-1 in the other three games.

Yeah yea yea.
I'd take that bet.
You're saying they're gonna go 3 and 1 the rest of the way?

This is the NFL. Beating Arizona is far from a given and they are screwed without that win.

Nah I'm not that confident in it, it's just what I think will happen. I'd definitely make a wager on 2-2 and/or making the playoffs.

They have a significantly better chance of beating GB than losing to AZ. Bears D versus Ryan Lindley is the biggest mismatch of the season. I expect no less than 17 forced turnovers from the D in that game.

It's going good. You seem pretty happy your team got their ass handed to them. I still think I'll be right that they'll go at least 2-1 from here and make the playoffs, but I'd be happy to be wrong. Round 1 of 4 obviously goes to you. That's fine with me

I'm not happy they lost. I am happy I'm right and called this game.

I wouldn't be. If I were you. Which I'm not. But if I were, I wouldn't be, because I would know that I called someone crazy when the evidence shows that I was. I being me being you, that is.
