I don't care about this game, but I felt obligated to start the thread. Too bad it doesn't count. Otherwise I'd be willing to attend. My wish is both teams make it through without any serious injuries.

Is Grossman still on the roster? ...I love to see that clown fumble the ball and throw ints...figured he would be cut with RGIII and that MSU qb getting drafted.

Yes, he is. I assume he will be RGIII's backup. He sucks, but you could certainly do worse for a backup.

If Wrecks is playing , I am watching...love to bet big against him when he starts..I think RGIII will be great..better than Luck.

I hope he's great. I'm officially "all in." The team is, so I guess I have to be as well. Planning on going to St. Louis and Dallas (Thanksgiving). Would love to see another game in DC, too.

You are going to wager on an exhibition game?

No.

For Saturday? I don't think he'll play more than one series. It would be virtually impossible to score 23 TDs, let alone have 14 turnovers in the game.

I honestly don't know what to expect. Obviously there will be growing pains, but coupled with those better be some flashes of brilliance. As long as we see growth over the 16 games, I'll be happy. I'm not expecting immediate success.

I could see that, but I would expect more interceptions if he gets around 30 tds.

Yeah, considering how QB stats are increasing yearly and what Cam just did on a bad team I don't think that's a shocking prediction at all, especially coming from a Redskins fan.

There are many husbands out there right now that think their wife is awesome because she'll watch preseason football with them. Little do they know it's simply to see a couple shots of Sam Rosen. #YourDreamboatHasDocked

Rosen and Miller are a brutal listen. Rosen called Gabe, Ben in the 1st quarter. Now he just said Gould has a strong leg. Anything over 45 yards is a battle with him.

Quote:

DENVER -- Chicago Bears kicker Robbie Gould boomed a franchise-record 57-yard field goal to start the fourth quarter on Sunday to give his team a 10-0 advantage over the Denver Broncos.

The kick appeared to be long enough to be good from a distance of approximately 65 yards, and broke his previous career-best of 54 yards on Dec. 5 of last season.

Prior to Gould’s bomb on Sunday, Kevin Butler and Bob Thomas were tied for the longest field goals in franchise history (55 yards). Butler connected on 55-yarders twice: on Dec. 12, 1993 at Tampa Bay, and on Oct. 25, 1993 against the Minnesota Vikings. Thomas kicked a 55-yard field goal game in 1975 against the Los Angeles Rams.

Gould came into the game Sunday with 788 career points, second most in franchise history. Gould has connected on six field goals from 50 yards or longer this season, and is now 11 of 13 on field goal attempts from 50-plus yards since 2009.

Gould's 83.3 percent accuracy on field goals of 50-plus yards coming into Sunday ranked as the best in the NFL over the last three years.

Other than the allowed KR touchdown, that was a great half of football.

Neck injury, but all extremities are fine per ZZ. He just took a poor angle on a guy twice his size.

From looking at the online game tracker, it seems that Cutler, Marshall, and Jeffrey all had good nights.

What about McClellin?

2nd and 3rd stringers out there for the Bears, but Cousins looks more NFL-ready than Grossman or RGIII.

McClellin had a good game. He put a veteran spin move on a 'Skins tackle that looked fantastic and I believe resulted in a pressure (or a sack, can't recall).

Well, I only watched the first half, and the kick return to start the second half, but that was much, much better. Both lines looked better. Only thing is, it was against a crap-ass team. Still, feeling much better. I'm really liking what I'm seeing out of the guy who used to put the 'wide' in wideout -Alshon Jeffery. Oh my fucking god, the Bears may have a plus receiving unit! I thought that Mayan calendar shit was bunk until now.
