Matt Barkley will start for the Bears today. I just looked at a fantasy site that calls him "an NFL QB3 at best." Would love to see him do well, but he's in a tough spot as the Bears o-line has been wracked by injuries and they have very little at receiver.

Goff throws a perfect pass for his first TD. Idiot WR Kenny Britt gets flagged for an excessive celebration

And now Matt Barkley leads the Bears down the field and throws his first NFL TD pass!

Hurns just dropped a perfect pass from Bortles. The over-hyped Jaguars WRs have committed a ton of drops this year.

A Giants player catches a punt over his shoulder and Dick Stockton calls it a "Willie Mays catch," recalling Mays' catch from the 1954 World Series. Why not call it a "Jim Edmonds catch," as Edmonds routinely made brilliant catches, over the shoulder and all kinds of other ones.

The Bears black receivers keep dropping Matt Barkley's well placed throws.

I've noticed how poorly the secondary play is in the Bears - Titans matchup. Maybe it's time for the NFL to stop discriminating against white defensive backs. The quality of their product would greatly improve.

Yea it's too bad Jaxon Shipley wastes away as a free agent while all of these black bums get to play (why haven't the Bears activated Braverman either? )

Barkley showing plenty of arm strength - really hope he is able to finish out the season strong for the Bears.

Hill could start for a lot of teams. Excellent athlete and of course has good hands. Sean Peyton hyped him last year only to bury him behind Ben Watson.

Three TD passes for Goff in the first half!! He's hanging in there in a duel with Drew Brees.

It makes you wonder why they waited till the season was over half over to start playing him. At home games the fans have been
yelling his name for months now. The Rams have a good defense and a good running game. They just need to let Goff develop and he seems to be off to a great start.

Now on the defensive side safety Clayton Fejedelem is in making plays. Just made a nice tackle in the backfield for a loss.

Bengals are one of the better NFL teams to watch right now.

The amazing Drew Brees with 4 TD passes and a rushing touchdown, still in the third quarter.

Idler Arm Taylor with some really pedestrian stats. How long do the Bills insist on sticking with this guy?

Hill with 74 yards and Fleener 59! Good day for the duo.
