I'd never choose Addai first round first pick. If he fell to me at say pick 6 or 7, yes.

Who do they have? Reggie Brown & ? I don't even remember their receivers.

I almost played fantasy ball this year. The league I was going to join ended up not letting in any new people this year. Oh well. Like I needed another thing to waste time on on the internet.

I hope Brennan does something good eventually. For some reason I'm rooting for the guy.


After the beat down he received in the Sugar Bowl I'm kinda rooting for him too :p

Well being from Atlanta I have to support the Falcons.

But ever since I was a little kid I've loved the Chicago Bears. Walter Payton was my hero.
I hate Grossman though.

Now that I live in San Diego I root for the Chargers.

I can't believe Grossman is still in the NFL. Worst starting QB in the league. How the hell does he still have a job?

Because the Bears, in all their glorious history, have rarely, if ever, had good quarterbacks.

I don't know. He's a douche wrapped in a toolbag of an enigma.

His QB rating in several games reminds me of that scene from Animal House where the dean is telling Belushi his grade point average. Zero. Point. Zero.

Some commentators had Buffalo @ close to .500 and pushing for a playoff spot.

Thomas Jones did a trade and sign there last year, so he'll probably have a few years left.

Their defense is damned good. I don't know if it's the conditioning, horrendous bad luck or a combination of the two, but injuries have really hampered a solid, top 10 defense over the last couple years.

Their left tackle is top 3 in the NFL (he's holding out for more money) and the rest of the line's decent. Lynch is a good running back. However, they've not had consistency from the TE, WR or QB position needed to put them in the playoffs. Their starting receivers are gotdang tiny, although fast and Robert Royal's more of a blocker.

Yeah, I'd put them in the hunt, but it'll be a first round exit if they make it.

The AFC is tough, so even if you go 10-6 or 11-5 you may only get a wilcard.

I'm in, but I can't run the thing. Not enough time in the next couple weeks to really do a good job.

I'm taking Westbrook and you guys can't stop me.

Well that's 2. 12 is about the maximum size for a good league.
