Cutler vs. the #1 D  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 11/27/2014 12:34 pm : link
I'm thinking Detroit for that reason. But this could be a sloppy one and Chicago does have offensive talent. It also feels like Megatron is due for a classic game.
Cutler's in a half-trance

as usual.
Detroit will find a way to lose

Rooting hard for the Lions

they (along with Seattle and/or SF) are the best hope for snatching a WC from Dallas/Philly.
Game of two QBs

Who took a step back this year.
I root for Cutler..  
Sean : 11/27/2014 12:46 pm : link
a QB who takes far too much shit and plays in a tough stadium.
Go Black Unicorn!

Nice run by MB, why couldn't we ever run that screen?
Due to new TV policy  
Big Al : 11/27/2014 12:48 pm : link
this is first year neither Detroit or Dallas have an AFC opponent on Thanksgiving.
Well ...  
Stufftherun : 11/27/2014 12:49 pm : link
so much for "balance" being of import. 6 passes and into the end zone for a quick TD. I guess it can be done Coach Coughlin.
Is it just me or is Stafford  
superspynyg : 11/27/2014 12:49 pm : link
As inaccurate as Eli?
how does Stafford have only 13 TD's?

Cutler is what he is  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 11/27/2014 12:58 pm : link
A good but not great Brett Favre impersonator. I don't hate him and he probably does get too much shit. But that comes with the style he plays with and his general attitude.

Great drive to start it for Chicago.
Anyone know where I can stream this game

Who has a stronger arm  
AnishPatel : 11/27/2014 1:03 pm : link
I wonder.. Cutler or Stafford?

Alright!

Nice job, Jared Allen.


We're gonna have a worst record than you, Chicago!
Did I just read 0 TDs on last 25 drives  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 11/27/2014 1:15 pm : link
For the Lions? Wow.
I think we now know why  
Stufftherun : 11/27/2014 1:18 pm : link
Stafford has been largely ineffective this season. His OLine is in disarray as well.

a brett favre impersonator????that is an insult to a great-excellent QB, a winner, a fierce/tough competitor, who sustained success for 10 years. jay cutler does a great impersonation of jeff george, physically and mentally. watch him be the starting QB of the skins next year.
brett favre's career accomplishments (from wikipedia)  
Les in TO : 11/27/2014 1:58 pm : link
"He is the only player to win the AP Most Valuable Player three consecutive times (1995–97).He has led teams to eight division championships (1995, 1996, 1997, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2007, 2009), five NFC Championship Games (1995, 1996, 1997, 2007, 2009), and two Super Bowl appearances (Super Bowl XXXI, Super Bowl XXXII), winning one (Super Bowl XXXI).

He holds many NFL records, including most career passing yards, most career pass completions, most career pass attempts, most career interceptions thrown, most consecutive starts by a player, most career victories as a starting quarterback, most sacked, and most fumbles."

the only cutler impersonation to favre is the arm strength and propensity to be sacked and fumbled!

Calvin 109 and 2tds

23 ptsvfor me so far! Plus I picked Det to win!
both teams getting pressure with 4 guys

Meanwhile Romo still has time in the pocket.

I have felt like this for the last couple of years now. Glad to hear the Bears and Phil say it.

CBS always had rights to game where AFC was visiting team. FOX for NFC visiting team (except under extenuating circumstances). This year it was agreed that exceptions could be made to this rule. That allowed the Detroit Chicago game to be on CBS. In the past, an AFC team would be playing in Detroit in the years CBS had the early Thanksgiving day game.
Not saying Cutler is Favre  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 11/27/2014 3:18 pm : link
Just that he's got a similar skillset and style. Favre's resume speaks for itself. He is a legend no question but he had similar strengths and weaknesses. Jeff George isn't a terrible comp either but Id take Cutler out of those 2.
Cutler sucks
