That's silly. The Bears organization's lack of accountability in fixing the OLine for years is what's losing the team.
RIP Steve. Terrible news.

WHAT THE FUCK? NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Literally the death of an era.
NFL Films was one of the classiest and most fascinating things about NFL football.
Those films were works of art. History.
The America's Game series is one of my favorite series of anything ever.
And the NFL didn't give a fuck. Slashed the budget of what they did. Moved offices from NE to LA. Brought in TV producers to run everything. Willingly went from John Facenda and Autumn Wind to Rose, Faulk, Irvin, and Sanders incomprehensibly trying to recount what they had just seen 5 minutes earlier

Vick has taken a beating for years due to the Eagles OL being bad but you dont ever hear him say a bad word about those guys. Leaders dont call out teammates in the media. Cutler has every right to say something to a guy on the sidelines during a game, but he needs to shut his fucking mouth about guys in public. That is what is going to hurt the team.
I won't be able to respond back as I've got to go back to work, but when Cutler news circulated the locker room in Denver no teammates (irc) said much in the way of him leaving. Whether or not this due to fear of McD I don't know, but rumor has it that he's wasn't beloved as a teammate.
The last few years they've really been bringing it back though. That's also a bit unfair. They went to NFLN (fuck Bob Kraft) and built up around that. Since that is now established they got back to the NFL Films model. A Football Life, the Super Bowl champion series, etc. Yes they are still doing garbage Top Ten lists but you need filler when you have a 24 hour network.
Sabol completely changed sports and television forever. It's a travesty that he'll never get the credit he deserves.
Ben is the best at that.
He is always saying how he thinks he has the best offensive line in the history of the world.
It is a super douche move to call out your teammates in public. Have to keep that in the locker room and that is on the coach to make sure it stays that way.
He didn't say anything in public. It was the sidelines, and he was mad. He didn't badmouth Webb in the media or something.

Yeah, I miss the old NFL Films. I used to really enjoy the recaps they would put together during the 80s with the voice overs of the late great Harry Kalas. They used to show them on HBOs Inside the NFL back in those days.
He showed him up. Just like Marino did all those years yelling at his WRs. There isn't a merit badge for not trashing them in media

Didn't he get elected to the Hall of Fame?
I'm sure he wasn't. He's got a bad attitude. However, bad OLine play is bad OLine play. Liking Cutler isn't going to change much of that. They've been garbage since the day he showed up on the team. It needs to fundamentally be changed, and the only times they've done well, it's been due to Cutler's ability to play in spite of it, not because of it.
Uh, I know that. Look at the quote I'm responding to.
That was his dad who started NFL Films that got into the hall last year. Steve just took it further and better get in next year.
They started it together. Steve will get in next year.
His dad did, but he should get the nod, too.

NEVER has the NFL Films music so perfectly matched the sublect matter.

Autumn Wind, pirate, Raiders, yada yada yada I know
I did. The way I read it was that showing Webb up on TV was not as bad as (theoretically) trashing him in the media. If that's not how you intended it I apologize

Flacco as VP?BaltimoreLarry said:
Naw, the quote said that he should criticize Webb on the sidelines, and not in the media, and that's what Cutler did.
For better or, worse.

With Ozzie's skills, he'll probably pull some random State Legislator from Kansas who no one has heard of, but his skill set is off the charts and ends up being a stud politician.
No.
At least he was able to be inducted into the HoF before he died. A true forefather of the NFL. His mark on the game is undeniable.There was a special on NFL Network on last season that I'm sure they will be replaying.
EDIT: Wait! It was Steve Sabol? Ed Sabol's son. Damn.
Err, wasn't NFL films always based in South Jersey right outside of Philly?
But yeah, RIP to a legend, who made the NFL the NFL.
His Dad's last film from last year
Man, Ed's voice really gives me Leonard Nimoy vibes.
Also, the bit with Mel Blanc voicing the offensive line calls is a classic (at 1.05)

NFL Films is located in Mount Laurel, NJ. Really close to where I live.

I thought that after the game Jay had said that the OL needed to play better. If not then I guess nevermind that part but he still went out of his way to show him up on the sideline. If a guy is sucking I would think you could get the message to him without doing it like that. It seemed like Jay was blaming Webb even though the whole offense was terrible that game Jay included.

RIP Steve Sabol
Keep tabs on Welli while he's stalking the door, I don't want him getting in trouble.
He said they all needed to play better. His show is on right now, and he's mainly focused on his own play and how it should improve.
EDIT: A fan asked why didn't they put in Chris Williams to replace Webb, and Jay responded by, "Should they have replaced me with J-Campbell?" LOL!!

Wow you weren't kidding. That's a straight copy of Leonard Nimoy.
So gawd damn epic! I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME!!!
Meant NE as North East, not New England. I knew it was somewhere there but didn't know specifically where. Explains why so many Philly people are involved with NFL Films

If he didn't say after this game, he's said the same thing all preseason and that already pissed people off.
Also, just reading about Finley. Fuck that guy. Too many drops and too many distractions. Guy needs some new scenery.
Haha, just came across this: The NFL has an entire page dedicated to Tebow

I seriously feel like we may beat the Pats by 30. Ravens at home. Anger from last season. Tom Brady sucks now, still, whatever. All of it equals a 44-10 game.
Pollard ends Stevan Ridley's season. Feeling it!
