Week 2 Thoughts

Nice job by Cutler yesterday and a much needed win by the Bears.

Yeah being a Gore owner in multiple leagues it was sad to see him leave early in the third quarter, but I'll take the 40 points anyday.

The Bears get Seattle next week. Cutler should have another good game and Matt Forte owners should get their first taste of first-round production too.

I'm not a fan of the Seattle defense. Forte should run all over them and that will open things up for Cutler. If Hasselbeck's out, I could see the Bears winning in a rout.

I'll get more into this Game on Saturday if you like.

I think Cutler throws for at least 225/2. Forte tops 90 with a TD.

Bears go to 2-1.

I'm with you Tom. This is the week that Forte owners get the production they have been waiting for. He faced the Steelers and the Packers D (although the Packers made Benson look like an All-Pro!) This week, he gets a team that let Gore run circles around them.

MINIMUM of 20 fantasy points coming up!

Said it before, during, and after, but the Chargers play calling at the end of the game possibly cost them the game. 2 minutes left and you RUN on second and two? Firstly, you waste a minute. And THEN, fourth and two or three, with a minute left, in the red zone and you run an off tackle with the midget Sproles against the Ravens D? Roll-out, short pass, do anything but that.

This just in: Rivers will have to throw and throw and throw this year. Happy Rivers owners.

And, Vincent Jackson is a monster. One of the top 3 receivers in the league right now. Does everything well.

TRUE GORE RAN FOR 207 ON THEM HOWEVER (NOT THAT YOU CAN) IF YOU TAKE AWAY THE TWO 80 RUNS GORE'S AVERAGE IS 3.4 YARDS (14 CARRIES FOR 48 YARDS)

If Gore played the whole game he would have run for 500 yards. If Forte is half the RB Gore is, he should get 250 on them.

Seriously, I don't like Seattle's defense. I think Forte delivers for his owners after back-to-back stinkers.
