It's good to live in Texas, sometimes. Because here, they know good football, and even if the Bears game had been the primary Fox game, here in Texas, they would have found a way to black them out.

I didn't see the game. I have no idea why the Lord above saved me from it, but He did. That's Texas speak, btw, and it feels just right, just right now.

What I could tell from the line score was that my earlier defense on this blog of Cutler may have possibly been premature, but that, for sure, my disgust with the Pits was right on target.

For those unfamiliar with the term "pit", it's the term football coaches use for the front line. Both sides. It's a mash pit, and, generally, whatever team wins in the mash pit, on any level of play, high school, college, or NFL, wins the game.

There was an article I saw yesterday in the Trib about how Cutler was, statistically, in better shape than almost all the other QBs in the league in terms of sacks.

I guess the article writer hasn't noticed the pressures. Do those get recorded? Oh, yes, they do. And last I saw, Cutler was number two in the league in pressures. In other words, if he doesn't pass as soon as his hands touch the ball he's in deep shit.

Cutler is not Grossman. Cutler is a QB sitting behind a paper bag offensive line. If he takes them out to dinner, I recommend a really  bad restaurant that makes them all sick for the rest of their lives.
