Damn, beat me to it. So eloquently spoken, ha.

Hardin, sheesh... So glad Lovie is gone. I'm liking how Frey and Anderson are performing. The biggest disappointment on D is McClellin. I just don't see him making it in this D.

I think safety has been ok. Nothing great, but not bad...

Looks good. Keep em coming.

I get what you are saying but... He's not been a big stat guy since he's been here. That being said, I would argue that he has been our best player during that time. He's been disruptive in the pass game, a monster in the run game, draws constant double teams etc. Stats are there to keep track of who made the play. They don't track why.

He's had a lingering illness. Let's see how he finishes the season. So far, not so good. His legs even looked a little heavy on the TD, but nobody caught him either. But, I didn't notice any decline last year and have a hard time believing he has naturally fallen off that much. I just wonder what type of virus's linger that long. Mono?

I for one, came out of my chair when he did it. Told my wife that noone could ever call him soft again. Then Collinsworth reitterated. It was a great statement, but I hope I don't have to see it again. On a side note: He doesn't plant that safety if the safety wasn't laying up to avoid a penalty. Same as when Urlacher whiffed on Brady.

Congrats!

Definitely a great game. I love that this team saves something for the finish. Whether it's the defense making a stand, the o-line picking up a blitz, coaches having plays ready to exploit the defense, or Cutler just being clutch. This team has a little work to do, but they are clearly showing us an identity. Oh, and a 2 game lead on the Packers is great stuff.

Good points. He could have a life transformation this year.

This all day. Obviously he is not who they hoped they were getting. If you draft a guy at 3, you are expecting a stud. I think Richardson is good, but not 3 good.

What's your priority? Or are you just trolling as usual?

He played at Oklahoma. I was referring to pro careers...

Oft injured or punished? Because AP has not been oft injured, thus he takes the punishment well.(plus he's a freak) Richardson, on the other hand, has not shown any durability in his 1st two seasons. So, any comparison you would make to the two is wrong. Richardson should have never been taken that high in the first place. To CDog: You know there is a difference in the punishment certain running backs take...

In the short term I think it's a good thing for Indy. Richardson does everything well and gives Indy a dynamic the desperately need. Losing Ballard for the season prompts this move. That being said, they paid too much because I don't think Richardson will have a long career. Would any of you pay a 1st for a guy who is oft injured and takes a lot of punishment???

He is kind of a dbag. I remember when he played for the Colts his wife was in labor and he tried to pick up a nurse I knew, outside the birthing room. I usually don't judge, because they could have an open marriage agreement. But, really?

Just for fun... Looking at our roster now, what do you see as needs to improve our roster? Offense to obtain: the heir to Forte and groom a speed reciever and heir to Hester on returns a bookend TE to go along with Bennett a C Defense to obtain: a corner or two DL Retain/extend: Cutler, Melton, Tillman, Wooten, Jennings, Marshall etc... Not sure if we can keep Peppers

Lol! Just messing around.

Against 2012 playoff teams! Internet pu$$ies please stop bitchin...

Agreed. His technique was perfect until about the last 2 feet. So, 1/100 of a second cost him 21K. Clay Matthews had a lot more time to process his decision. So, I can see the injustice. The point I bring up is: Shouldn't the NFL look at the infractions in three ways, in this progression. 1) Actual violation= base 2) Time to process decision. IE: degree of intent 3) Reoccurrence. (They can create a simple formula that all risk analysis folks use in process FMEA's) Lastly, all fines should be based on the NFL minimum and increased at the same ratio the players salary increases. That way the fine will punish the vet as hard as the rookie and create the same expectation for all. My thought would be that the vets would be leading the younger guys by example in proper hitting technique at that point.

Well said...

Agreed except Dalton is not better than Cutler.

No teams moved in the rankings. You probably accessed the report before they had a chance to fix it. Check back later.

I liked his honesty. Here's what I heard... Brian's camp was taken offguard with Emery's tactics. Brian got butt hurt over the offer. Brian decided he was worth more elsewhere. Brian found out he wasn't. Brian decides to retire. Brian now feels stupid for HIS decision. Brian is now telling the story in a way that he hopes doesn't make him seem stupid. Brian IS stupid. Still love the guy though...
