The coaching issues are pretty clear. Houston has more raw talent than many teams and can't do anything with it.

We've had the worst special teams in the league since the team came into existence and we still have the original special teams coach :rofl2:

Probably done for the season with what seems like a possible torn ACL. Pats still have a legitimate chance at winning the Super Bowl IMO, but their chances took a big hit after the Gronk injury. Hopefully next season will not be near as bad with injuries.

Adios Shanahan(s). On to the next sucker willing to coach for Captain ******* I guess.

With RG3 deactivated and Cousins in the fast lane to concussion city, you know what that means:

Uh, this week Flynn should be your choice. He's going against our stellar pass defense. :rolleyes:

Edit: Err, wait, Rodgers is supposed to be back, isn't he?

FML.

Cousins with no line and horrendous special teams against the hapless falcons (at Atlanta). Upside: Could have a big day if their special teams/D crap the bed again and he has to throw. Appears to be a decent pocket passer and might have better success than Griffin considering he was only named the starter a day ago. Downside: The whole teams is in disarray. Entirely possible he could be murdered or turn the ball over a ton. Impossible to know.

Campbell. The Bears who just got their franchise QB back are coming to town. Weather won't be a factor - both teams are used to it. The Bears are fighting for a playoff spot and have a lot to lose. They'll spend most of their efforts shutting down josh gordon and giving up stuff underneath to Cameron if I had to guess. The bears pass defense has been suspect and they've been pretty ok at stopping the run. Campbell is slow as **** so expect them to blitz him a lot. Weather and matchup favors a big rushing game but who knows what happens in the redzone.

Matt Flynn. Don't get me wrong, the cowboys are bad but good god the packers suck hard without Rogers. I wouldn't touch Flynn on principle. Lacy will probably go nuts since the cowboys have one of the worst rushing D's in the league and Flynn can't reliably move the ball around.]

Verdict: Coinflip between Campbell and Cousins. I'd probably take Cousins if I had a gun to my head but make no mistake, all of these are terrible QB options.

Surprising upset by the Chargers tonight. If the Patriots can win out in the next 3 weeks, they should get the #1 seed in the AFC. Won't be easy, but certainly doable even with Gronk hurt.

Seems about the same way I had it analyzed. Though I gave the edge to Campbell because of Josh Gordon.

They're my backup team - grew up in LA and hated the rams and raiders and loved the san diego zoo. Some day I will buy a powder blue Stan Humphries jersey.... someday

Snow and high of 25 degrees in cleveland on sunday. I wouldn't expect it to be a pass happy game.

Made a last minute switch to Cousins, which means Campbell and Flynn are going to have good days today.
