How does Jay Cutler collect a pay cheque? He is the worst QB in the NFL. With all the amazing offensive weapons at his disposal (Forte, Marshall, Bennett and Jeffery) he continues to stink. When will the Bears give up on this guy?
The Bears right now have to be the worst team in the league. They make the Jags look good. As for the most overrated team in the league, that honour goes to the Seahawks. Their vaunted defense is a sieve right now. And Russell Wilson is wildly inconsistent. If they played the Broncos today they would be annihilated. Seattle fans can kiss a Superbowl repeat goodbye.
Denver is the class of the league. Unless they experience some injuries to key players, I think they've got the Superbowl wrapped up.
I like the way the Packers have played recently, but because of their defense and their inconsistent offensive line, I can't see them going deep in the playoffs even with the best QB in the game (with all due respect to the great Peyton Manning).
Their run defense is poor, and their DB's are undersized and take too many chances.
I think the Colts could surprise a few people. Andrew Luck improves with each game and is already an elite QB and the defense is better than many people think.
What has happened to Antonio Gates? Did he discover the fountain of youth? He's the best tight end in the league this year and he wasn't even rated as a top ten TE by many experts this year. He has tremendous chemistry with Rivers which certainly doesn't hurt.
Is Zac Stacey old news now? Tre Mason certInly seems to be the more explosive runner.
