The Bears might've been able to blame the weather for their 7 points, if the Patriots hadn't scored 36 (all but a field goal were scored in the first half).....Luckily for Chicago, the Packers also dumped to the Lions 7-3, the loss made worse by Aaron Rodgers's exit with a concussion.....The Illini looked terrible defending the perimeter, but shot well enough from it to beat Northern Colorado 86-76; at least Illinois looked better than it did against Oakland (a team this author suspects might expose Ohio State, who beat Western Carolina handily).....Carson Palmer threw for 236 yards and 3 TDs; one of those TDs and 178 of those yards were even to Bengals receivers! Bengals lose 23-7 to the Steelers.....Vikings/Giants has been moved to Ford Field on Monday Night after the Metrodome roof caved in.....The Cardinals traded shortstop Brendan Ryan to the Mariners for what appears to be a bag of balls in pitcher Maikel Cleto who managed an ERA of 7.91 in six AFL starts; anyone want to bet Dave Duncan can't turn him around if he gets the chance? Anyone?.....We TOLD you not to start Brodie Croyle; Chargers blanked Chiefs 31-0 (Oh, you also shouldn't have started Jamaal Charles; forgot to mention that the other day).....The Browns fumbled 5 times in a 13-6 loss to the Bills.....Kevin Durant put in a 25/7 night, despite playing only 30 minutes, to lead the Thunder past the Cavs 106-77.....The Wild had no answer for Corey Perry, who headlined the Ducks' 6-2 win with 3G/2A.....The Rams went quietly against the Saints 31-13; Saint's Opening Day backup safety Malcolm Jenkins returned his first pick-6 97 yards.....at ease.
