Yeah, sure, why not?
The game thread will be up at around 1:45 Central or so. . .you'll know it by the big, fancy table at the top of the post. In the meantime, we can discuss some of the less important games. . .i.e. "all of them". . .that will be kicking off at noon. NFC North matchups will feature the Bears hosting the Cleveland Browns and the Lions hosting the St. Louis Rams in what Jimmy Johnson called the "skim milk game" (since it's only available in 2% of the country).
So, talk about the early games here, and the official Game Thread should be up in just about two hours.
Oh, and amazingly. . .every Fox pre-game analyst with the exception of Frank Caliendo (who isn't really an analyst) has picked the Vikings to beat the Packers this afternoon. I'm not sure if this is a sign of the apocalypse or not.

In their defense
They didn’t miss it, the Giants blocked it.

Ok thanks. thats different
And I didnt mean that play in specific, I meant in general when a kicker flat out misses it. You know?

Bears TERRIBLE!
This is a terrible organization – everything from MacKasey – Philips – Jerry A. It is going to prove to be the worse organization in the NFL. Maybe just maybe they can beat the terrible Browns. Jerry A. is the worse judge of talent in the NFL. He gave away too much to get Cutler who is really no better than Grossman was. Poor Papa Bear is rolling around his grave as he watches his idiot daughter who knows nothing about football ruin this franchise.

Give her a lifetime contract
Make sure they lock up Jerry Angelo, too. That guy’s a genius.

I'm really not sure
How the refs in Browns/Bears managed to get that fumble call wrong AFTER seeing it on replay.
At the least, it should have been grounding on Cutler. He wasn’t throwing that ball to anybody.

at least the Rams Lions game is living up to expectations.

You gotta give it to Detroit
I’ve never seen a team manage to score two points on the same play they threw an interception

The Chicago game is going to end up like 21-0 on Field Goals at this rate....

works for me!
May the wind be always at your back, and may your placekicker have icewater in his veins.

Just in from Eric (via Facebook)
Just part of the “press” that interviewed Bart Starr, Jan Stenerud and Paul Krause! What an experience!

Hey Vikes fans
Ya there are a lot of boring games today. I’m a bit surprised by how bad the Giants look.

except the Mets, they just have too many problems in order to hate them.
But I love Philly! Fly Eagles Fly

Glad he didn't
We likely wouldn’t have drafted Harvin then.
