[quote=BaltimoreSkins;1325321]WJ3 not traveling with team and is out. Another frustrating signing by RR. Might be most frustrating due to size of his contract and dead weight value[/quote]

What a bust of a FA signing lol

[quote=SunnySide;1325322]How can yall not watch? If I have something going on, some commitment okay. I dvr then quick view a few games a year.

Sundays is about lining up your food menu, making business decisions on how much you wanna drink a day before work Monday .. and basically the only 4 hours or so a week I am in charge of my house.[/quote]

I'm with you. I said last week that I wouldn't watch the Titans game. Guess where I was at 11:00 MST... At least it was a decent game that they had a chance to win.

My normal routine is to look up what food/meal the opponent's city is known for, and make or order that for lunch or dinner depending on the time of the game. I haven't done that lately, as I am losing interest in the whole routine...there's still plenty of beer or spirits though. :food-smil

I won't make a prediction. Part of me can see this team really taking the Bears to the wood shed on Thursday night. The other part of me can see another disappointing loss - however it transpires.

I'll be watching though, because my kids want to watch, because I'm guilty of child abuse and have them following in my footsteps as SkinsTeamManders fans. :embarrass

[quote=htownskinfan;1325317]Not a closet Bears fan but how can you not be a Walter Payton fan.It still pisses me off refreezerator Perry got a td in the SB but Payton didn’t.If memory serves, I think Payton’s last game was against the skins in the playoffs, we won the game and I was a little sad because it was going to be Peyton’s last game, my memory could be wrong but that’s how I remember it.
As for this game I am not going to watch it because if I do I will find myself pulling for the skins, and at this point we are not going to make the playoffs, and I think it’s going to take losing every game before Snyder gets rid of Rivera[/quote]

Correct! Darrell Green with the punt return for the win!

We went from being one of the best blocking o lines to hands down the worst. Changes in personnel, poor coaching. I would love to see ST implement a zone blocking scheme it is one way to mask an inferior o-line. My ideal offense spread or WRs, quick short routes, zone blocking using Gibsons quickness

Agreed, the zone blocking was working for us.

On the Gibson note, I'm completely frustrated by the use of our backs. I get letting the young guy get his reps, but nobody is able to establish any type of groove.
