...is now on. The only way the Bears score is if Washington makes a mistake and kicks to Devin Hester. The fan running onto the field was kind of fun.

Okay, Bears need a new game plan - direct snap to Devin Hester on 3.

I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

I see you are a native Spanish speaker, Voodoo.

Edit: I guess I am partially blind for not noticing your location... anyways.

The NFL is now like the NBA, where there is a clear favorite to win it all, then three or four teams that have a chance... Everyone else has no realistic chance, like the Bears.

TheWOAT, while my location doesn't state it, I am also a native spaniard, but in contrast to voodoo, sucking when it comes to speak english.

Voodoo is, of course, not a native Spaniard.
Been inclined to wander... off the beaten track.

"How did they ever win the Packers?"

Hehe yes I guess Spanish influences me a lot. Not a lot of English spoken around here

They shot all the tin cans down with the BB gun.

Much like the Eagles gave the Packers the first game. It all evens out in most cases.

Hm perhaps, but I missed that game ... However, the Eagles may be a fine team, but they're not as good as the Packers this season.

Philadelphia Eagles with 5 wins, 7 losses, scored 258 pts, got 246 points against them (12 net points) and 29 touchdowns so far.

Green Bay Packers with 10 wins, 2 losses, scored 323 pts, got 222 pts against them (101 net points) and 36 touchdowns so far.

The Eagles don't have much of a chance against Favre and the Pack... even when the Packers aren't playing so well...

Yeah, you missed it. They played the first game of the season at Lambeau Field. The Eagles gained more yards passing and rushing and held the Packers to zero offensive touchdowns. Early in the game, Greg Lewis muffed a punt that Green Bay recovered for a TD. Then, with the score tied at 13 late in the 4th quarter, J.R. Reid (who replaced Lewis as punt returner) inexplicably tried to field a punt in heavy traffic, muffed it, and Green Bay kicked the winning field goal. Neither guy had ever returned punts in a real game before. For obvious reasons, the previous punt returner Reno Mahe was called and brought back for the next week's game.

Just another ridiculous Eagles loss this year. (See also the Bears, Pats, and Seahawks games)
