The breakdown you did was just excuse after excuse. it didnt deserve a reply.

No, the Bears are obviously better with Cutler and Forte. But Caleb Hanie didnt play that bad. Barber ran for over 100 yards and one TD. sure, he made two bonehead plays.. but Forte could have fumbled just like Barber. Tebow still threw for 160 plus yards at the end of the game. I didnt see Urlacher hurt so you cant make an excuse for that either.


by my logic 7-1 is great in the NFL no matter who you play. Its funny.. all of the talking heads on ESPN and NFL network stopped using the competition arguement because they know its dumb. But nerdy trail analysts are smarter than former players and coaches obviously.
I think of all the crazy last minutes stuff he has been involved in, I think this win was the least about Tebow and the most about the game being in Denver ( I'm sorry..you don't airmail 70 yeard field goals anywhere else), the horrible coverage played by the Bears (Curtis Painter could have completed those) and yes, the incredible stupidity of one Marion Barber. I'll reluctantly give Tebow his due for Minnesota and maybe, maybe even the Jets (it would be more credit worthy if he had returned Sanchez's pick for a TD himself) but yesterday was not about Tebow rather than everything else.

you are right 100%

Prater deserves the game ball and the defense is the reason they've been winning. Brian Dawkins is one of my all time favorite football players. Von Miller is a beast. That D is just good. but you can't completely disregard how good Tebow is in crunch time. If he played all 4 quarters like he does in the 4th he'd have some of the best stats in the league.

A bit surprised considering their play of late, excluding yesterday of course

The Miami Dolphins fired coach Tony Sparano on Monday, a source confirmed.

Dolphins owner Stephen Ross plans to hire Carl Peterson, former president of the Kansas City Chiefs, to fill the role of executive vice president of football operations once held by Bill Parcells.

Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland will stay on board in some capacity.

I think we all knew this was coming. Im not sure why now though. I think the end of the seasson would have worked just fine.

I thought Haley got a bit of a raw deal. They win the division last year. There best offensive and defensive players suffer seasson ending injuries and now Haley is out? Maybe hes not that good a coach, but did he deserve to go now?

He is very hard to deal with by many accounts. I think he was looking into a college job (ASU?) and they just got rid of him early.
