The Cards and Niners gave us some tough games and SF will be good this season. I'd rather play NO in Chicago than to play in SF, Atlanta, or Carolina next year.

Really? What makes you think that the Niners will be that close to the Saints?

That being the case -- NFC North teams same tough schedule, give or take a couple games -- then I expect the Pack and Vikes to get chewed up by most of these teams... they'll probably be 3 games behind just past mid-season. = p

Exactly. IIRC Bears have KC & NO while the rest of NFCN doesn't. I'd figure 1:1 on them is doable. Fighter's chance in every game really.
Hell, 2 years ago, a lesser Bears roster beat NO, if not for Miller's late leg loss TD rob (NFL admitted later it was a TD)...cough with a FOX offense! So yeah, there's a chance. Things changed since then, but nearly all for the better on Bears' side at least.

Hold on a second. When exactly did the NFL admit it was a touchdown? Because I distinctly remember that piece of shit Al Riveron used that specific play as an example on what wasn't a catch.

The Niners will be good but still below the Saints. The Saints struggled to end the season and they aren't world beaters when they had north and outside. We struggle to beat bad SF teams in SF so I like our chances playing at home against a team we play well at home.

But the chiefs don’t have Deshaun Watson, so they are evenly matched with all other teams as also rans

Leomaz, your obsession with me is putting msadows last fall to shame. Going around frantically disliking everything I post, and rabbiting on about Deshaun Watson like some insane drunk girl is only showing how much I'm under your skin. You have absolutely zero chill. Please improve.

Actually, the NFL doubled down on it not being a TD. Remember the Al Riveron video?:

The rest of the NFCN just isn't scaring me as much the experts suggest it should. Still as others have said, this could be a better team with a worse record than last year. I see the Bears making it to the post-season and winning at least one playoff game this year.

Thanks for correcting. I recalled reading the admission, but turns out it was him & NFL saying that according to the new rules, it was a TD. Also, Sean Payton said it wasn't even debatable in another article I found last night. I should know the NFL rarely admits being wrong.

It's still an interesting play review. It shows how complicated it can be to review a completed pass.
If anyone is interested, here a vid of Senior VP video analysis of why he's sure it's an incomplete: http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-netwo...al-Review-Why-was-Zach-Miller-s-TD-overturned
I can see what he's saying, but I don't see 'indisputable evidence to reverse the call on field', rather there might be enough to not reverse an incomplete call on the field.

Thanks for sharing. Don’t get me started on this shit. There’s threads abundant on here with photos showing that where he’s circling isn’t actually the ball, but rather a shadow from Miller’s body, because the ball is visible in a COMPLETELY other area literally one frame past where they stopped the video. That’s *why* they stopped the video.
The NFL are such crooked dishonest fuckers. God dammit, I can’t believe I willingly watched that video again.
