It's better than last year at this point, but I think that is just because of finally going through an offseason and haven been in the same system for a year. The passing game should be loads better at this point. Third downs are still a problem. Receivers are dropping balls, and when that isn't happening Alex isn't completing the passes he should complete. There were a few chances down the field today with Jets corner Wilson getting smoked three distinct times and Alex couldn't connect. Sometimes he takes unnecessary sacks too. It's really annoying.

Is it just me or does it sound like there is a decent contingency of Bears fans at Jerry World?

Thats a good size Bear contingency in Dallas there. Just like Redskins fans in Dixie it seems like.

Looks like the Bears will be a team to watch in the NFC.

This is the most I've ever seen the Bears smile! Its good see them having a good time! Bear Down! 3-1 baby!! gosh Bear Defense is scary with with there 3 or 4 man pass rush. Just destroyed The cowboys, but what really got me was The Bears passing game. It was really good today! Dallas just couldn't get together as unit! One side is smiling and tons of high fives while the other is yelling at each other complaining, and just being lazy.

The Cowboys are just an inconsistent team all around. Reminds me of the early 2000's Saints. Flashes of good offense with usually terrible defense always having the team flirt around 8-8.

They haven't been relevant since the mid 1990s, though. Can you really call them bandwagoners?

5 interceptions (1 tipped and 1 would have been a fumble, damn you forward momentum! ), but still throws for over 300 yards *shrug*

Didn't seem like they really could get a ground game going and Dez Bryant was dropping shit...good lord.

Bears have had a good D for a while now haven't they? just injuries creep up on them like most

I assume you're talking about the deep plays?

Give The Niners passing game some more time. It's a bit unreasonable, given Alex's history, and the new the faces in the receiving corp to expect that Smith would be throwing for 300 yards every game. Be thankful we're not still in the dark days of three years ago, when the air game was dragging down the rest of the team on a consistent basis (Nowadays, while it's not in a central role like that of most NFL teams, it's not getting in the way, and even manages to contribute here and there. Though as the Minnesota game showed, it can't win on it's own yet.).

Not quite a steamrolling, but I guess that's enough for The Falcons.

Wrong city, it was Buffalo that had the aneurysm.

Right one this, further confirming much hunch that The Rams are more like their 2010 iteration than last years…

Quote:
SF @ NYJ: San Francisco (Brandon Jacobs has arrived! Watch the Niners run game go from awesome to god-tier! And they'll never have to worry about 3rd down ever again!)
No Brandon Jacobs, but The Niners took no prisoners and showed no mercy, not even to the dignity of the Jets in this blowout.

TEN @ HOU: Texans (Moo-cows continue their rampage through the AFC)
And The Texans keep on rolling.

CIN @ JAX: Cincinnati (Sure, B-Gabby's emergin', but The Bengals have arrived!)
And The Bengals quest for relevance takes another step forward.

MIA @ ARI: Arizona (Watch a franchise with no pride humiliate a once proud franchise)
And those wacky birds take it to next level in a personality defining game.

OAK @ DEN: Tossup (This game comes down to one damn thing, The Raiders offense vs. The Broncos defense)
And I was completely right here, Peyton Manning and The Broncos offense did not matter one single bit in this game.

Quote:
NO @ GB: Tossup (Now, who wants that No.1 pick more?)
GEAUX AINTS! FLOP FOR THAT NEAUX. 1 PICK!

WSH @ TB: Washington (Not even coach Jackass's last second bull rush can beat SuperQuarterback!)
And a wonderful job from SuperQuarterback.

Just how badly does Andy Reid wish to continue being the bane of every Eagles fan's existence?

Quote:
CHI @ DAL: Tossup (Yeah, I forgot this game)
I'm starting to realize how much I underestimated Chicago going into the season. Oh well, that's part of the fun of predicting!

Now, for Week 5:

ARI @ STL: Tossup (While Arizona doing good is nice, The Rams are finally seeming to break out of their own lost decade)

GB @ IND: Indianapolis (My crazy pick, because fuck yeah!)

BAL @ KC: Baltimore (Oh look, another shit team for The Ravens to crush)

ATL @ WSH: Washington (Because SuperQuarterback)

CLE @ NYG: New York Giants (You can do it, people whom I hate for stealing our Super Bowl)

PHI @ PIT: Tossup (Both teams are flawed, if not necessarily bad)

SEA @ CAR: Seattle (I kind of want to call this a tossup, but Seattle's excellent D and Cam Newton's struggles keep coming to the front of my mind)

CHI @ JAX: Chicago (B-Gabby will struggle yet again)

TEN @ MIN: Minnesota (The current iteration of The Titans have shown themselves to be dysfunctional on the best of days)

DEN @ NE: New England (New England is just a far more complete team than The Broncos right now)

BUF @ SF: Now that Brandon Jacobs is actually ready to play, the only question left to ask is how many thousand rushing yards The Niners will get against a Buffalo D that gave up 250 rushing yards to a team not known for it's ground game.

SD @ NO: New Orleans (Oh look, it's The Chargers. My give a shit meter just fell to fucking nothing)

HOU @ NYJ: Houston (From this point, it's going to be nothing but pain, misery and people calling for Tim Tebow for Jets. The Texans on the hand can look forward cute kitties and ambrosia)

Yeah it , but seeing how they(GB) has play this year there is a good chance this may happen.

Thoughts on the other games later.
