Based on his timeline, he will 2-4 games, so if he comes back somewhere in the middle (3 games), he will miss BUF, SF, and NY Jets, and would be back for GB at home. The Jets game is on MNF, so that is exactly 7 weeks from today. I figure Morgan, Weems, or Williams will get a shot before calling Bennett back.

Weird to see Williams/Bostic. Mundy and Vereen, Steltz down to "Other".

Can't you say the same thing about every other team on the list?

Mongo, Who out of the 8-12 would you put ahead of the Bears? 12. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 11. Pittsburgh Steelers 10. Cincinnati Bengals 9. Green Bay Packers 8. Indianapolis Colts I believe Indy is over-rated in a weak Division. GB has done nothing spectacular this offseason. Cincy probably shouldn't be in the top 10, Pittsburgh is about where they should be and TB is higher than I expected them to be in a Division with NO, ATL, and CAR.

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown...-162004609.html Pretty accurate assessment to me.

From what has been reported Clausen has came in and instantly picked up the offense and looked much than Palmer who should have the upper hand with more experience in the system. If I was a betting man, I would say Clausen is our #2 if the season started tomorrow.

Thanks for the updates, keep them coming, I like getting info from non-media outlets that confirms what they are saying.

From all reports, this is a different Cutler this year, and it is a welcome change. He has completely bought into Trestman and this team and I expect big things from him this year. MVP may be a stretch, but who knows, if we go 14-2 and have HFA throughout the playoffs, he would have to be in the picture.

The dude is a beast. Was probably the best player on the Raiders last year, and is in even better shape this year. I have been quietly optimistic about him and I believe he has the potential to be in the talks as a DPOY by the end of the season and a Pro Bowl. With his ability to play outside or slide inside, I see him getting some good looks with teams having to plan for both him and Allen on the other side.

I agree, there is no way Briggs sucks this year. He wants one more "real" contract, and there is no way he gets over a one-year flyer deal if he has a bad year.

The 70 yard kick had over 5 seconds hang time, which is ridiculous. I loved the pick from Day 1 and thought it was one of our biggest needs after DLine and Safety. Here is a clip: Fans chanting Meg-a-Punt, lol.

https://twitter.com/BobLeGere https://twitter.com/CSNMoonMullin Some Fuller comments in other thread. O'Donnell is a stud, 70 yards punts, we are going to be pinning teams back this year.

Twitter updates from Day 3 (in pads): Fuller looking really good.

I see it as a positive. He is showing why he is a 1st round pick. I would be more concerned if you never heard him mentioned. Gakman, feel free to post play by play and your overall assessment of standout players.

Yeah, definitely marketing, and CHI and LA are the biggest markets.

I know, the MLB All-Star game is over, now it is getting into the real football season.

Thanks, so I guess it is tied to the idea that those that live in apartments or at other locations where they cannot install a dish. That is stupid. They can either take my $200 or not, it is not like that is going to get me to sign up for their entire service. Bad marketing and business plan.

Just wanted to send out a friendly reminder to all those that participated in last year's TalkBears leagues. A few of the leagues have been renewed, so if you played last year, get back in and activate your team. If not, we will start looking for replacement Gm's.

I even tried my parent's house in 60462 and it was ineligible. What is your zip? If you don't want to post, can you PM me?

Yeah I saw that, but it is sort of BS because it is not available to everyone: I am at Fort Knox, KY and I'm not eligible for NFL Sunday Ticket online?

I think he was retiring. If not, I would be interested.

I had it last year online from the Madden 25th Anniversary Edition, and it was great. They should breakout online access separately, they would make a killing (just like the other major sports).

You would think the premier TV package for the NFL would be up to date with their marketing. Still sucks that DirecTV has a monopoly on it.

If Bears don't make playoffs, I would really consider trading a bunch of players and rebuilding.
