What are your thoughts concerning the Rams vs the Bears? Could be the contest of "The Most Futile Offensive Lines in the NFL" Bowl or something.
Seriously, these two teams may have the worst OLs in the league by a large margin. Will be interesting to see which QB makes it through the game and which is carried off on his shield.
Peppers against Wayne Hunter? This sounds just wrong and should be considered all but illegal. Of course, Robert Quinn v, JaMarcus Webb...heh...now that's more like it!!

Yeah, I expect that both QBs will get hit a lot in this one. I like the Bears to win at home after a long layoff. In the past two seasons, the team was able to use its bye week to sure up the o-line a little bit after disastrous early season performances, so hopefully they were able to use this layoff as a mini-bye week of sorts.
Additionally, Cutler bounces back well from poor games:

Cutler's anemic 28.2 passer rating against the Packers was the second-worst of his career and the 10th time he has been below 50. His passer rating the next weeks has been 95 or better eight times and his teams have a 7-3 record.

The Bears should win this game, but I could see a lot of different outcomes. I could definitely see Chicago just destroying St. Louis by a couple of touchdowns. But just as easily, I could see the Rams defensive line making J'Marcus Weeb their *****. After watching them play Green Bay, I don't have any confidencs against a team with even an average pass rusher.

San Francisco is another road team I would generally pick, but I don't like taking road teams. I might have to break that rule because otherwise, I'd be taking Dallas.
Look at it this way, if Rodgers had Allstate instead of State Farm, he'd be protected from mayhem like this

I agree. The Bears are tough to beat in Chicago. But what about Forte? Is he going to play and, if not, what does this do to your chances?
IIRC it should be Michael Bush that replaces him. What do you think about his abilities in your offense?
My top two picks, against teams i really like unfortunately:
Baltimore over New England. More problems for Brady and that offensive line.
Detroit over Tennessee. This one started as a pickem and is now the Lions -3. Are you kidding me. That Detroit front will destroy the Tennessee offensive line. How bad are they?, Chris Johnson is averaging 1.1 yards per carry. They might get creative and start using him in the passing game but i don't think it matters.

Missing Forte will hurt because he's so versatile. (In past years, when he split out wide, he was our best receiver...)
But the drop off to Bush compared to last year's drop off to backup Khalil Bell won't be quite as bad. Bush doesn't have the complete tool set Forte does, but is a better and harder inside runner. We also resigned Bell this week and have Armando Allen as a change of pace/pass catching back as well.
Im gonna say that Bengals/Redskins tops 70 points combined. Toss up in a shootout.
WHERE THE **** HAVE THE SANU AND LEONARD TOUCHES BEEN?
it's really grinding my gears

The Eagles brought in receivers Brian Robiskie (pictured) and DeMarco Sampson for the Week Two “Tryout Tuesday,” the day when the players are off and guys who may be taking a job or two come in for a workout.
Robiskie also had a tryout with the Patriots, who likewise looked at receiver Kashif Moore, defensive tackle Antonio Dixon, center Tommie Draheim, defensive tackle Terrell McClain, tackle Nick Mondek, and linebacker Nathan Stupar.
Elsewhere, the Bears looked at linebackers Spencer Adkins, Rennie Curran, Jerry Franklin, Omar Gaither, and Lawrence Wilson, along with defensive backs Bryan McCann and Dante Hughes.
The Bengals eyeballed defensive end Wallace Gilberry, Ronald Talley, Jay Richardson, and Jarius Wynn, and linebackers Xavier Adibi, Bryan Kehl, and Jabara Williams.
The Lions looked at running backs Ryan Grant, Steve Slaton, and Alfonso Smith, and defensive backs Tyrone Culver, Jaiquawn Jarrett, and Brandyn Thompson.
The Texans went all O-line, with centers Bryan Mattison and Cecil Newton, guards Mike Gibson and Kevin Hughes, and tackles James Lee, William Robinson, and Stephen Schilling.
The Colts checked out guard Paul Fanaika, tackle Tony Hills, nose tackle Nicolas Jean-Baptiste, and linebacker Shawn Loiseau.
The Dolphins looked at defensive tackles Remi Ayodele, Andre Fluellen, and Daniel Muir. (Fluellen was signed.)
The Saints tried out defensive ends Tim Crowder and James Hall.
The Raiders worked out defensive backs Darius Butler, Cletis Gordon, Antwaun Molden, and Kevin Thomas, along with defensive end Andre Carter and tackle Patrick Brown.
The Chargers kicked tires on cornerback Chris Carr, and the Bucs brought in running backs DuJuan Harris, Jacob Hester, Adonis Thomas, and Keith Toston, guards Roger Allen and Montrae Holland, center Matt Tennant, and tackles Jake Anderson, Brandon Keith, and J.B. Shugarts.
Finally, the Titans tried out tight ends DeMarco Cosby, Alex Silvestro, and Brandon Venson, linebackers Joe Holland and Tyler Nielsen, and defensive end Aaron Lavarias.

Can anyone tell me why Jake Scott is not getting any looks? Better yet, can anyone tell me with all of their OL problems why the Rams aren't looking at this guy?
Heck, Fish even has a history with him in Tenn.....
Leonard has been mainly used as a blocking back.
He threw a key block that sprung Andrew Hawkins on his TD.
Sanu is getting reps on ST right now.
Binns has been good and so has Hawkins.
Not a lot of reps to go around right now.
got Leonard is so good and sexy.
And boo, Sanu will come around! He'll show you all
and man, it's weird to feel that the game's on tomorrow. Kinda rules

Because he is inept? The Titans have by far the worst interior line in the NFL and he was as bad as any of them.
