Tucker is a well spoken dude. Seems like a really classy guy (with a pretty good sense of humor).

Have to admit I was cursing Jim Harbaugh's name for attempting that FG. What a weapon.

Same. I was not happy with the draw call on 3rd and 10.

So this is where we are at...

If Pack beat Steelers and Bears beat Eagles, Week 17 is for the crown.

If all three teams go 1-1, Lions win the division.

With Cutler and Rodgers both missing significant time, both defenses bad, it is incredible to me where we stand right now.

Also, if the Bears win out, they would be the three seed. My head hurts contemplating that.

I dont see the Packers beating the Steelers. Theyre on a tear right now. Lions dont win the division if everybody goes 1-1, Bears would still take it.

Yeah, I was going through different scenarios and wrote wrong scenario. That was if Lions won tonight.

I believe the Bears will go hard after Arthur Jones this offseason.

I'd be all for that!

Right, Steelers are on a tear because they won 1 in a row and 1 of the last 3. Hell of a tear.

Sorry Dish, if either the Packers or Bears go 1-1 the Lions must win out. They have a very slim chance of making the playoffs. This weekend is the key for them as obviously somebody wins the Packers/Bears game in 2 weeks.

Amazing that ESPN couldn't get their graphic correct last night for more than 5 minutes. That was pretty lousy television production. Anyway, really looking forward to the week 17 clash. I'm sort of hoping that both the Bears and Packers win this week such that both teams are on a bit of a roll. The only scenario where that game doesn't matter is with a Bear win and a Packer loss this week.

Yeah, I corrected myself already.

Bears and Packers control their destiny. If both win next week the Lions are out. Pretty amazing considering the division was pretty much theirs for the taking on Thanksgiving.

Not really that amazing when you consider they're the Lions

And the Lions played a 'statement game' that day.

While it remains 100 to 1 minimum, perhaps the Packers just decided not to lose again this year during halftime on Sunday. Wouldn't that be a run for the ages? Anyway, at least we're still playing meaningful football. Sports was looking pretty bleak for me about 3 weeks ago.

Bears Packers may actually mean a whole lot come week 17.

Bears - Packers always means a whole lot!!

For all the roasting Cutler takes on here, might need to start looking at Stafford, his numbers, his contract.

All three=not so good.

tower912 · « **Reply #1716 on:** December 17, 2013, 11:56:16 AM »

Stafford is somewhere between Tony Romo and a young Brett Favre.

Inflated from playing with perhaps the most physically gifted WR ever. He should be tithing from his contract to Megatron.

What a ridiculous family.

Art Jones is a DE for Ravens. His younger brother, Chandler, plays DE for the Patriots. His older brother is Bones Jones.

Just a little bit of athletic ability in that family...

Check out the Bears players under contract for 2014, they have like 10.

4th most cap space in the league next year.

Heard an interesting stat. Since Stafford has been in the league he only has 4 wins against teams who went on to have winning records. People bash Cutler all the time but nobody mentions Stafford and his side arm throw.

NFL made a big mistake in flexing out of Ravens/Pats to go with Bears/Eagles. Depending on what happens earlier in the day, you could have an exhibition game in primetime in Week 16.

Even if the Packers and Lions both lost, wouldn't the Bears still have to win to clinch?
