E. None of the above?
I'm going say the Bears since the Vikings will more than likely miss making the playoffs by losing the last game of the season.

I'm going with the Vikings. Daunte has talent, no matter how shitty he has been. That offense will click at some point and pull out some wins. They won't win any playoff games without a defense, though.
I'd pick the Lions if they traded for a QB. I've given Harrington the benefit of the doubt ever since he's been here. However, after his performance today, I'm jumping ship. If you can't put up some points with those WRs and Kevin Jones in the backfield, something is wrong. I didn't get to see the game, so someone please correct me if the O-line was the problem, as they have been a weakness for some time.
I do like the Bears, which is blasphemous being a Lions fan. I'd say they were my favorite to win the division if it wasn't for the Skins game.

I obviously voted for the Bears, and i believe that they are much better than everyone thinks. First off, even though both the Red Skins and Lions offenses are below average, they completly shut both down. And i think that once they face a team with an offense they will be up to the task. Secondly, there offense is no where near as bad as last years. Kyle Orton is better after 2 games then any of the clowns they threw out there last year. And unlike last year, they have a play maker in muhamed who can be counted on. I'm not saying that they are going to be great, but they are alot better than you all think.

I don't think anyone will argue that the Bears have a great D. They have for many years. I just think it's a bit early to hail their offense. Lighting up the Lions is nothing to brag about.

just wait and see what the Cow Boys do to the Red Skins tomorrow night... you may not be too impressed with that Chic Ago win after all
and just look what the Brownies did to the Pack today... the Lions first win at home means nothing

That is true, but the packers and vikings D are just as bad as the lions, so i dont see any real challenge from either of them.

in addition to this how many offensive touchdowns did they actually score? (i know the Bears scored at least one special teams and one defensive touchdown, if not more)
of those offensive touchdowns, how many didnt start in Lion territory?

The damn dirty Packers will pull it out as usual.
They'll need quite the turn around. I think they've looked the shittiest out of all the teams. I also think they have the least potential to change. Other than Favre, who is past his prime, they don't have much. The Bears have a good D and I think their O will improve. The Lions have playmakers on O as long as someone can get them the ball. Daunte is for real and will start playing better. I could see the Packers easily ending up at the bottom of the division.

I agree, the Packers are god awful.

Oh, how the Black & Blue division has fallen.
Yes, it was the Line for the most part. Only one of Joeys Picks bugged me.. one was a fluke play (batted at the line and caught by a lineman), and the other was 100000% the fault of Roy Williams. 2 were "were behind 30 in the 4th quarter, im just gonna throw the ball" picks. He didnt play well today, but no one did. If you watched the game, he would be the least of your concerns- WR's not even trying to get open, Oline that couldnt block run or pass, bad playcalling, no defense, awful special teams, blocked extra point.
Possibly the worst game of football i have ever seen.
can a superbowl be far off? all signs point to the bears.
