that was just a joke. I actually belive that Marc Bulger will murder Incognito and Barron because they apparently don't care at all about winning, so that will limit our personal fouls and false starts drastically. Then, we will get some people in the secondary and some defensive tackles and sign a new coordinator who will not run a halfback dive on 3rd and 7 at the 10 yard line, and we will sneak into the playoffs and win the whole darn thing!

I really hope (and expect) this will be the SB game. I'm willing to bet it would turn into a showdown between LT and SA, with the two both getting multiple td's, massive yardage, and the game coming down to a 2 minute drill with Hass throwing a td pass to DJax to win the game.

I can see the ESPN article now. "Most people thought that Dallas was the better team and deserved to go to the Super Bowl, but the media votes and the BCS computer ranking allowed Chicago to sneak into the number two spot. So it will be the Bears playing for the national championship while the Cowboys are relegated to a consolation game against the Texans (selected for regional appeal)."

* No way KC gets in with that ball-buster schedule
* Same goes for Jacksonville

Sounds good to me.
