I know I am a little on the homer side, but holy mother of damn, I think he is a secret poster on the huddle cause his Jake Delhomme hated is palpable.

Jakes not the best, but he sure as hell isnt the worst.

Jake Hater's, here is some more ammo.

Eagles (-2) over PANTHERS

Early Wednesday afternoon, I was working when my cell phone rang. It was my daughter's preschool. They never call me unless something bad happened. Forty-five horrible things raced through my mind in 1.7 seconds. She was kidnapped. She fell off the monkey bars. Another kid blinded her with a Lego. I answered the phone with a giant pit in my stomach. Turned out she was just sick and threw up in class. Phew.

What does that have to do with the Panthers? Every big moment with Jake Delhomme is like that random preschool phone call for Panthers fans. They see him in the caller ID and think, "Uh-oh ... ." If they get out of it with a simple puking in class, they will take it. Anything better is a bonus. I would not have brought him back

New Orleans, 11-5

Atlanta, 8-8

Carolina, 6-10

I will give credit where credit is due, his line about Cutler was funny.

PACKERS (-3.5) over Bears

Chicago fans have been wondering why I dumped them and adopted the Packers as my NFC North team and Super Bowl pick du jour. It came down to one thing: I didn't want to root for Jay Cutler. Has he had a likable moment yet? This year will be his coming-out party as the most despised player in football. Every time they show him on the sidelines, he looks like a pissed-off trust-fund kid who can't believe the valet scratched his Escalade hybrid. And you know what? He makes the league more fun. I like rooting against him the same way I liked rooting against Rick Barry, Bill Laimbeer and the Iron Sheik. We need more Jay Cutlers in sports. Not everyone was meant to be liked.

Dude..

It's espn..

you know as well as I do they don't actually know anything about any team that doesn't tickle their titties with " teh SuPaStaHZZZ"

notice the Falcons at the top of the list?

my point proven.

Team continuity, strategy, depth, grind and passion , none of that stuff matters to espn.

it's all about "teh SuPaStaHZZ" to them.

We'll bulldoze our way thru this season again, and Bill Simmons will go back to crying how were overrated like he did the year we went to the Super Bowl

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.

      At least we have Mike Kay and his little buddy sidekick whoever to put you to sleep when suffering from insomnia. They're all useless unfortunately.
