    have they never heard of under soil heating in the NFL
    Undersoil heating doesn't do much good in some of the temperatures in the northern states during December and January. Its only really effective as a frost protection system. If you get heavy snow (as they do in the aforementioned parts) you're better off leaving the snow on and using it as insulation, then clear the stuff off a day or two before the game.

    Chicago have been utterly woeful this first half...

    Wow - since the 3rd quarter of the Thanksgiving Day game vs Detroit, New England are currently 114-3 in terms of points scored/conceded.

    Our defense has been brilliant thus far today - so many different players stepping into their roles and standing up to be counted. Another brilliant outing by Mayo and McCourtey.

    da bad news Bears have less than 50 yards of total offense so far.

    Their kick returners have taken more than twice that on the five kicks they've received.

    Bears punt returned 70 yards for a touchdown. Called back for holding.

    FFS the Vegas line on this was Bears +3.

    59 yard completion for a TD with the clock expired - missed the FG for the extra point, but lead 33-0 at the half.

    Absolutely breathtaking football in the snow by the Pats

    A good chance to dredge up possibly my favourite historic sporting event of all time.

    New England Patriots 36-7 Chicago Bears (Final)

    Blistering first half offensive display, followed by a very disciplined defensive display in the second half, with Brady and the offensive unit making plays to eat the clock away.

    Very comfortable win - now to head home and prepare for the visit of a Packers team who will be desperate for a recovery after losing out at Ford Field today.

    Another difficult game, with or without Rodgers (hopefully without...)

    Miami Dolphins 10-6 New York Jets

    The Jets' offense has now gone 8 quarters of football without a TD. Their final "drive" summed up their day today really - misfiring offense, mistakes and poor calls.

    Jets fall to 9-4, with the Dolphins improving to 6-5.

    Thanks for the roundup

    if im right in thinking GB are 2 wins away from winning NFC North because Chicago have a better divisional record, so realisticly the packers need to win all 3 games against New England (highly unlikely) NY Giants (possible) and Chicago (dont like to think about it ). Thats assuming Chicago lose all 3 games against the Vikings, Jets and Packers. so to conclude this its very unlikely GB will make the play-offs

    Dunno if the above is a typo, but if Chicago win their next 2 games, then yes, they win the NFC North. Green Bay would need to win all three, and hope Chicago lose a couple along the way, which, considering their run-in, isn't out of the question - they were absolutely ghastly against us yesterday!

    IMO, you both have 3 difficult games coming up, but you have it a bit harder, as the Giants are playing well right now, as are we. Chicago are facing a Jets side with no confidence (and evidently no offense) and a Vikings team who have sucked all year.

    I reckon you need 2 and hope other results go your way to make a Wildcard place if nothing else.

    We are really motoring at the moment! Great time for the team to come together and play this well.

    It's the sheer amount of players (including rookies) we have stepping up to the plate right now - granted, it helps when Brady is in the form of his life, but we have options in every unit right now, and everyone is on top of their game!

    With all the brilliant draft picks we have in waiting for next year too, I'm REALLY excited about what we can do in the next decade, if not this year.

    Don't be such a sodding pessimist.

    Chicago are truly awful (worse than you guys) and you SHOULD be able to beat Buffalo.

    Another 2 wins should get you to the playoffs, even if it's via the wildcard position - you're too good a side (sometimes) to not be in the post-season.

    Having said that, I'm starting to believe (perhaps foolishly - this is the Patriots, and I've been here before with them) that the AFC East race is over

    I sincerely doubt it - you listen to either Brady or Belichick's press conferences and they don't regard us as having achieved anything yet.

    And to be honest, if we rest anyone, the guys coming in as backup just now are really stepping up to the mark. McCourtey has a rib injury and missed the second half of the Bears game, so he might not make it.

    Rodgers likely to recover by then?

    New England dont seem to be the type of team to rest people, especially going by the last 2 games

    we wont find out about Rodgers until later in the week - http://blogs.greenbaypressgazette.co...er-conference/
