    Pretty fun game so far. Devin Hester sets a new NFL record (or tied?) for TD returns after his 94-yard scamper.

    Seems like the vote of confidence from coach Lovie Smith has payed off. Grossman is showing a big improvement over his pitiful 1.5 (or so) QB rating from his last time out.

    He didn't set the record. He tied it.

    Hall of Famer Ken Houston had five TD returns in 1971 for Houston. He returned four interceptions and one fumble for scores.

    Hah, got the edit in before your post, but yeah you're probably right. I've been boozing, so details are abit hard to grasp right now.

    I checked NFL.com, which says he set a new record (http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/CHI/9865159), but I recall one of the commentators saying otherwise.

    Hester did set the record for kick return TDs.

    Hah, Hester does it again. So, I guess now he's in sole possession of that TD return record.

    It's a shame though. Ever since Martz left, I don't quite hate the Rams as much anymore. Memories of that onsides kick seem to be fading.
