Unhappy Bears

We’ve got some unhappy Bears around here. Their Chicago heroes dropped one to the Kitties. Rex is out. Brian is in – and threw his own three interceptions. This time, though, it was a collapsing “D” that gave up 34 points in the fourth quarter. Next week the defending NFC champs go to Green Bay, where the old grizzled QB just set the all time TD record. They’ll probably fall to 1-4. Murphy, Charles, and Lovey are having a tough season indeed. Murphy will be busy in Georgia next weekend; perhaps that will help his mood.

Pittsburgh lost in Phoenix, so the unbeatens are now only four. Green Bay, Dallas, and Indianapolis have won four, New England three, with a game at 1-2 Cincinnati Monday.

The Colts trampled the Broncos. After Denver went up 10-0 it was 28-3 over the next two quarters before Denver finally put up its second – and final – TD.

We watched Dante Culpepper dominate games before a catastrophic knee injury in Minnesota. The only thing between him and an all time NFL record passing year in 2004 was Payton Manning (who moved the goal post). If he ever got healthy again… Well, he just might be. Three rushing and two throwing TDs today for Oakland. There’s a fantasy league day for you.

Quiz of the day. What University has a new 64,000 seat football stadium but no football team?
