Week 13: Bears vs. Minnesota - Sunday, Dec 3, 12 pm CST

[Jon]

Current windchill of 1 right now.

[Soul]

I must be the only one who sees this as a dangerous game for the Bears.

 

I'm sensing trouble. Cold day, Vikes stop the run better than anyone, Vikes are a ball control type offense, Bears are under siege by the media trying to tear them down for some reason (not sure why some Chicago media would want to destroy their own team, but hey I call 'em like I see 'em and that's what they're doing), Grossman's confidence might be a bit shaken from all the negativity and trash talking.....

[Jon]

Nothing like a good rendition of the anthem with a perfectly timed flyover to get the blood going.

 

Bears win the toss.

Well, here we go.

 

Bears under siege by just about everyone. At least the play-by-play guy opened up with the correct line: "I don't remember a more unappreciated 9-2 team than these Bears."

 

You got that right.

The only thing that matters is the Vikings. I doubt what the media says is going to impact the Bears' performance all that much.

[Jon]

CRAP

You don't think the media ragging all week might have caused just that little bit of lost focus by Rashied?

 

I do.

 

This is trouble.

This is trouble.

It's the media trying to be self-important. They say things and then they talk about how them saying things is affecting the team.

 

It's pretty meaningless.

[E.J.]

Geez. Great start Bears. :x

[Jon]

Nice job, Chris Harris!

[Shavo]

The Vikings sure call smart plays ... :roll:

[Jon]

Nice job, defense!

[USSoccer]

god, the Vikings are terrible

[cubweiser03]

could they of taken the 5 yard penalty and the spot of the ball being down? i would of liked that.

I know what you're saying, and ordinarily agree.

 

They listen to them though. It just takes that little teenie bit of someone in your head.

 

Especially in Rex's case. His press conferences have been.......revealing. I think he's starting to let the media scrutiny get to him a little bit.

[Soul]

Rollout alert! Rex can move?!?

[Jon]

Sweet slant to Berrian.

[USSoccer]

Nice slant

[cubweiser03]

Sweet slant to Berrian.

 

dude i bet im like 10 seconds behind you.

[USSoccer]

I like the rollouts. Rex looking fairly sharp today.

[Jon]

Moving the ball well on the ground and they go for the deep ball on 3rd and 2...

[Jon]

That was disgraceful.

 

Good thing it's coming back.

[USSoccer]

Moving the ball well on the ground and they go for the deep ball on 3rd and 2...

 

That's not a bad read by Rex, though. He just overthrew him by about a step.

[Soul]

Looks like Fox isn't in the mood to show replays today.

 

No replay on the TJ pass drop. Then no replay on the Moose long pass attempt.

 

I would have liked to see it, because it kind of looked like Moose stumbled a little, making that pass appear to be more overthrown than it was.
