[CBFF] Tank Johnson gets 8 games

[Ross McCoy]

I hope you don't think the SD offense at all resembles the SF offense nor that
Frank Gore has even near the talent of LT. Also keep in mind that SD defense is
pretty much on par with our defense although if everyone is healthy (and not
holding out) I would probably give a very slight edge to the Bears on D. With
Tank out, they have a slight edge on D. With Briggs out we would probably be
screwed unless we get really lucky with Williams being more mature and better
than I have any reason to give him credit for... I'm not saying it is 
impossible to beat SD, but I am saying the odds based on what we know today 
are against us. I would give us around a 25% shot of beating them sans Tank
and with Briggs. Probably closer to 10% if Briggs really holds out, but I would
be pretty shocked if that happened in spite of his rants...
