With Garcia in Control – Eagles Flying High

Bears Big Win Comes With Areas of Concern

Sometimes its just about getting the win, and Sunday in Chicago the Bears did just that – barely – as they beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 34-31 in overtime.  The win was ultra-important for Chicago, as it clinches a first round bye and a pair of playoff games at home come January.  At home the [...]

Thursday Night NFL Week 15 Prediction

San Francisco at Seattle – The Hakws are in firm control of the NFC West, but clearly are not the team that they were a season ago. Injuries have a lot to do with that, as both Matt Hassleback and Shaun Alexander have been hurt, and some free agency losses have hurt Seattle as well. [...]
