Call it Da Deal.Not since the beer-and-brats days of Jim McMahon, Saturday Night Live spoofs and the Super Bowl Shuffle in the mid-1980s have the Chicago Bears fielded a bona fide star quarterback.

What to do with Terrell Owens?

Bottom line: the Cowboys were a joke this season. They have many things they need to change before they can even think about making the playoffs. One of the biggest looming decisions is whether or not the Cowboys should keep TO. I personal think he is a waist of money and plays like he has no heart, and would rather see the Cowboys go down a little in talent, to improve on chemistry and work

Should Peyton Get the MVP

Here is a great article I read on Fox Sports by Ian O'Connor talking about why Peyton should get win the MVP vote. I thought it was a great article and I agree he should win it.Peyton Manning is the NFL's most widely marketed player, and yet he was destined to spend this season, as they say, under the radar. Even an alarming injury could not elevate his personal drama to a level of pressing

Pac Man get back in

What do you guys think about this? I thought Goodell was a hard ass and was trying to convey he was done putting up with thugs. So much for that persona. He is going to let Pac-Man back in again after two more games of suspension. The Cowboys have gone from Americas Team to a band full of thugs. I think they should have a gang war with Cinci.

Should the NFL add a 17th game to the season?

Do you think that the NFL should add a 17th game to the schedule. Roger Goodell recently made the proposition due to the lack of interest in pre-season games. Do you think its a good idea.

The Cooley Zone: My draft day story has a happy ending No player really knows where the hell he's going in the draft (except Jake Long).
