    With his ability to throw the ball downfield, accurate on his throws, calm in the pocket, and the ability to run with the ball when pressure comes or no wide receivers are open, no wonder why San Francisco paid him so much. In the last year of his 4 year rookie deal, Garoppolo who was still in New England at the time was asking for a big payday and a starting job. With Tom Brady planning to play for a few more years, after looking at how much he is getting paid, the Patriots did the right thing by trading him for a second round pick rather than let him walk in free agency and get nothing back for him.…

    “Not having the starting quarterback this a big deal because they're not going to function well and running the ball but Sam Bradford is showing that he is decent but not the best but if Teddy Bridgewater was in the game he would be able to run and find the Gap store in the Lions defense.” George said. “The Vikings injuries affect the roster because Adrian Peterson and Teddy Bridgewater are their best players and they are injured.” George said. “The injuries are a big effect if they don't have their starting running back in end up starting linebacker in but they could probably get past as they find the gaps through the defensive line and linebacker core.”…

The 2015 version of the Chicago Bears resembled nothing even close to your grandpa’s Midway Monsters. The Bears were weak at the wide receiver position, and quarterback Jay Cutler had missed half of the games already this year due to injury. The defense was suspect and the offense even more so.…
