The too early thanksgiving wrap up

Chicago needs a face lift on defence. Sure Jay cutler and co. have not seen things go that way but this defence is the worst. If they face a team in the top 15, thye get massacred. This turns the offence into a one dimensional, predictable barrage of forced deep passes. Not a recipe for success. The core on offence deserves on more year together, that being said if the defence is not revamped, this team is doomed to being the equivalent of the cowboys of 2011-13.

However I see the phins continuing their hot streak by controlling the ball and forcing stafford to throw the ball deep, allowing Cam wake and olivier vernon to pin their ears back. Miami takes it by one score Dallas-Jacksonville Pick: Jacksonville has some momentum. De...
