Got in swept in '08 by them as well. I think that was one of those games when Turner called three fullback dives in a row.

What's funny in that 07 game mentioned, it's all on youtube, and I was skimming through it and saw on one play McKie ran a FB dive and he got light up with a huge hit that had him stunned down a few minutes. So many classic Turner moments were in that.

On offense maybe. Manning leads the NFL in interceptions and has how many pick sixes?

How many pick sixes have the Bears had on defense? Let's get real here, that Denver game is likely a loss. Manning's been fairly bad this year and Denver is still 6-0.

the Griese game was against the Eagles. his headset in the helmet went out and he called the final winning drive.

that and the Lambeau game he won were pretty nuts. that and the Packers game in Chicago and the Saints game were some of the best moments of that year.

no positives from when Grossman played that I remember.

I froze my ass off. I was at the Broncos game too where they intercepted Cutler twice and I got pelted in the face with freezing rain.

John Fox is 10-3 lifetime in the first game back after the bye.

How exactly did you come up with 77%? I hope it wasn't using Scott Steiner math:

So did Stafford until he played us

He did have one int, and another called int that was overturned.

Do the teams that have pick sixes against Manning have them against other teams as well? I didn't think that really mattered looking at the passes that Manning had returned for TDs. He usually throws quick and to the outside which is an easier pass to return if picked. Denver is 6-0 because defense, not Manning.

Yes, that was exactly my point.

10 divided by 13, Fox's win percentage after the bye is 77%.

I agree it's likely a loss, I just think they score more than 10. That game also has all the makings of a trap game for Denver because they play the patriots next.

McCown put up 23. We all know he's twice the QB of Jay Cutler. Bears might be able to score 13.

McCown had 3 tos, one a pick six. Manning had a pick six, and 3 tos. That's the only shot the Bears have. Cutler had a good game and Manning having a bad game. It could happen...

Right, I forgot about that pick six somehow. So McCown put up 16. That means Cutler gets 8. I stand by my prediction of less than 10.
