I cannot overemphasize how much I agree with the bolded part

Hey Happy, this thread is for you.
Luns, I'm hurt. No shout out for me?
As far as the Bears game goes: even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.
We'll be seeing you all in the postseason..... again....

It's like I've tried to tell Luns - it's better to catch Pittsburgh at the beginning of the season when they haven't started clicking on all cylinders. Once we get into November they will start really pouring on the offense. Traditionally, they have the running game that few other teams do.
Last year the STEELERS ended the year at 12-4... before winning their 3 playoff games.
lost at Phliadelphia in the 3rd week 15-6 lost at home to the New York Giants in the 8th week 21-14 lost at home to the Indianapolis in the 10th week 24-20 lost at Tennessee in the 16th week 31-14
So it's best to play them early, middle and late?
But of course, not too late.

I think that his point is that the best time to play a team is when the Bears beat them. Clearly, it is always a fluke.
Yeah yeah . . . all those years in the league and Gramatica couldn't be bothered to make a block or at least get in front of the defender that chased Romo down from behind.
The Tuna made a good decision to move on to Miami, he'd done all he could to build a good team, take them to the playoffs and give them every opportunity to win, only to watch them snatch defeat
from the jaws of victory.
Of course we all looked on two weeks later as the Seahawks made the most
of their only Super Bowl appearance.
