Congratulations, you figured out I'm a horrible person.

The thousands of sports fan who say things like this on a daily basis are so ashamed of our behavior.

Please be my moral compass.

No. They don't.

Must be nice on your planet.

BEAR DOWN.

Fellas in the pick em contest... where's week 4 picks thread at?

Put up the high score for the year in both my fantasy leagues

I tell this cool story bros because I'm sure I will hate fantasy next week.

Thank you Dallas for that "defense" on Marshall's TD.

Damn, Romo put on a show. Dez with the worst 105 yard game I have ever seen.

[Roger Murdock]

Lost in both standard scoring leagues this week. I had 124 points in one league and 129 points in the other. I would have beaten everyone else in the league by over 20 points except for the person I was facing. Worst weekend in my fantasy career.

[Susan]

Rejected a Bennett for Witten trade this week. Played that same guy and lost.

[Rich Rane]

Damn, Romo put on a show.

Hey, if Cowboys caught those 5 INTs, Romo's numbers would look AMAZING.

This Bears team is Legit.

[RIPskaterdude]

This Bears team is Legit.

The Bears are good, but they're too inconsistent. We'll see how they play when they match up against the Texans and Niners in November.

It would be a pleasure to end Vick's season tonight.

Christ, you really are a dick aren't you?

You should be banned not for the name calling, but for the fact that you support a sociopath getting millions. Let me know when Vick is paying your rent.

my feelings exactly. Its fine to root for the maiming of bad people imo. Get hit by a bus Vick.

fun fact: Julio Jones has 4 (only 4?) more catches than Alshon Jeffery so far this year, but the same yardage per catch 13.7

It's kind of funny how Andy Reid has painted himself into a corner with Vick. I thought Vick played pretty well last night from what I watched, which was the first two drives and then the final 20 game minutes. He's still capable of making the amazing, game-changing play and when he controls the football Vick is an above-average NFL QB. The problem is that he does that so infrequently.

Kevin Kolb would come in handy bout now. I keep waiting for him to come to earth, but not yet. It'll be interesting to see if the Cardinals are willing to spend 9 million on Kolb next season.

Vick had one pass that hit a Giants defender in the back that he was laughing about. Do other quarterbacks laugh about a bad pass? I don't watch as much football as many here, but I don't notice the good quarterbacks doing that. It could be a reason why Vick isn't up to the standards as some of the other quarterbacks.

That's a product of defenses focusing the bulk of their attention on Julio. Roddy and Gonzalez are thriving as a result.

Funny how ESPN and others were doing damage control for Romo today by passing off a lot of the blame for his bad play onto the Cowboys receivers. Sure Bryant had a couple of drops, but Romo has to be held responsible for stinking up the joint. He's a QB that can't be trusted when under pressure.

Meanwhile if it was a guy like Vick they would be tearing him apart regardless of how bad his receivers or O-line played.

I hate Dallas. I dislike Romo. But he made the right read on a blitz wen Dez was hot. Dez slanted in and when Romo threw the ball inexplicably ran a 9, jumping behind the defender. Result: Bears TD. Romo then hit Ogletree PERFECTLY on his hands and the ball popped up and was picked. The third INT was a fumble when he was running out of the pocket (as was repeatedly required) and hit from behind. The last two INTs were when his team was getting crushed and he was attempting to make something happen. Should he have just checked down until the clock ran out so some of you guys could get some more fantasy points? Hell no. When you go down go down shooting.

It was obviously not a great game but the box score was far worse than the actual game. The truth is the Dallas line is terrible, Murray hasn't given them squat, Dez is a QB/GM nightmare, Witten is playing without a spleen and leads the league in drops, and Austin has played the whole season hobbled on a bad hammy. Not a lot of QBs that could make that work.

Romo was basically victimized last night. Aside from the late INTs when he had to force it, he was on target all night. Missed a couple seam routes but thats about it.
