    It's still not working for me. It's getting ridiculous now.

    Anyone else watching Henne and the Jags here? Very impressive.

    Harsh holding call on Mundy though, when he made a great play to disrupt a potential TD for the Jags.

    Chad Henne quite impressive so far for the Jags @ Bears. A couple of nice drives ended in FG's. 6-0 to the Jags with 5 minutes left in the first.

    Anyone else watching?

    Miserable enough play from the Bears, alright.

    Watching my own Giants, especially when on the defensive side of Special Teams play, last season, was horrific, however.

    Only semi saw that flag called. Seemed ridiculously harsh again?

    How bloody harshly are they enforcing these rules this year? :mad:

    They're a joke. The WR just has to run into the DB at the top of his route. Flags fly if the DB even raises his hands.

    The bears OL pass protection is incredible tonight. Could only dream of Eli getting that much time in NY. On two or three plays, Cutler literally had 4+ seconds in a clean pocket.

    Very impressive.

    Got to go to the game tonight, and as pre season games go, it was very enjoyable.

    Was very impressed by Henne and Bortles tonight! Going to be an interesting QB battle between the two of them.

    Great finish to the game too, got pretty much all you could ask for out of a pre season game in that one!

    Extremely impressive against that line. Delighted.

    Our run blocking is shocking at present but that will come.

    Never seen a Bears team that passes to create running opportunities, feels odd.

    New TE Steve Maneri ballsed that up, in fairness though he was only signed 5 days ago. An obvious miscommunication with Brady there.

    Nice start from young KT and it would be nice to have him healthy for the whole year.

    this is fun.

    Hope KT can be a reliable receiver for the rest of Brady's career, don't know if he can be spectacular but that would be an amazing story if he can have a good career.
