Apparently some people were upset that we didn’t cover the Super Bowl that much around here. To honor the squeaky annoying wheels out there who insist on emailing me about their perceived deficiencies on NQTC, here is the best coverage I could find. This is a video sent to me from my pops. [...]

From the desk of His Jesusness Shuttlesworth:
Dear Commissioner Goodell,
Something needs to be done about OT! I warn you that I often start emotionally, so bare with me- I promise a return to prudence by my letter’s middle. While I do not seek to generalize, it behooves me to emphasize that I am not alone in my criticism of [...]

This season has been brutal on Bears fans, and the 41-21 drubbing the Bears got at the hands of the Cardinals in Week 9 was no small part of that.  Not only did Cutler throw 5 interceptions that week, but he looked all-around awful.  The news for Cutler got worse a few days after the [...]

Dan Marino was doing some halftime highlights of the Dolphins-Buccaneers game today when all of a sudden he dropped the S-bomb on everyone.  If you listen closely you can hear the other analysts in the background snickering.  Enjoy!

Hey, just because we don’t get to watch the Bears lose this Sunday, doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy [...]

I never really had a problem with T.J. Houshmandzadeh. Like anyone else with a four-syllable last name or of Eastern European descent, once you learn how to spell their name and account for the silent consonants, most of your annoyance with the person disappears. Since first hearing his name uttered in the 2001 Fiesta Bowl [...]

Two of the most persistent stories circling around this young NFL season are: 1) Michael Crabtree and his agent’s continued bungling of his career before it has even started; and 2) Rex Ryan’s man-crush on opposing teams’ wide receivers.
Within the last week, these two stories converged when the San Francisco 49ers filed charges with the [...]

The betting lines on the 2009 Bears look pretty good.  Not necessarily good in terms of NFL betting, but good in terms of the Bears prospects for the upcoming season.  Here are some of the lines that a sportsbook had on them as of June 11:
Odds to win Super Bowl XLIV
Chicago Bears 30/1
Odds to win [...]

Rex Grossman did not stay unemployed long.  After much speculation that he was trying out for USFL teams and that no NFL teams were showing any interest, it appears he has signed a 1-year deal with the Houston Texans.  They signed him to the minimum amount for a 7-year veteran, which is $620,000 on the [...]

After it seemed like the Bears would never make a draft choice, trading out of their only first day pick, Jerry Angelo did a solid job of filling needs with talented players.
Starting with defensive tackle Jarron Gilbert Angelo addressed the defensive line, which he called the “cornerstone of the franchise.”  Gilbert weighs in at 288 [...]

Ok this post is not directed towards myself, since I obviously already love the guy.  He has a cannon for an arm and is pretty accurate with the football.  The problem some people have is that they think he goes out and parties too much and has a bad attitude.  In regards to the first [...]

Here is a picture of Jerry Angelo’s draft board, courtesy of WCG:

Had Jerry hit the board, the Bears could have ended up with Mohamed Massoquoi or any number of other talented players who were still waiting by the phone.  Unfortunately he missed the board entirely with his magical draft dart, trading the Bears second round [...]

The following is my favorite thing to watch around this time of year.  If for no other reason, I love it because it reminds me that the Lions aren’t the only team to continually botch their draft choices.  And since Detroit will likely be doing more of the same by taking future bust Matthew Stafford [...]

Time to finish out the first round and take a look at what the Bears will do with their only pick of the first day, which comes in round two.
23.  New England: Brian Cushing, OLB USC- The Pats took a young linebacker last year, but with their aging and departed linebackers, it wouldn’t be a [...]

Look down a bit for the first 11 picks of the NQTC Mock, but we’re looking forward to the group of picks where the Bears would have been if they hadn’t made that wonderful Cutler deal.  No more wasting time.
12.  Denver: Everette Brown, DE/OLB FSU- The Broncos would love if Sanchez fell to them here, [...]

Okay, so this isn’t the first time I’ve attempted a mock draft, but it’s damn close.  The Bears don’t have a first rounder, but I’ll take a look at what kind of player they’ll be looking at in the second round in the second half of this fiasco.  Keep in mind, I’m going to pick [...]
