I'm not sure as to why they fired Lovey, but he had absolutely no reaction when
they were being dominated. I never saw him get angry, or yell at a ref, or
anything. Other than that, I thought he did alright.

Very true, but I know we can beat 'em. :)

I'm not so sure they made the right decision giving Cutler all that money and
all those years. I still have yet to be convince that he's any kind of good
quarterback. Way too hit or miss for me to bet the farm on.
