[Cynosure]

Oh God I might have to mute this game with John Madden... he's worse than Hawk, Morgan, Miller and Buck put together...

[splintersag]

Woohoo finally game time!!!

[Cynosure]

Briggs hurt, nice.

 

He's back now... nothing serious.

Blitz was ineffective.

Blitz was ineffective.

 

That's a sign it could be a long night

[Soul]

Briggs back in.

[Keener98]

Well held them scoreless thru 1 possession, thats a plus lol. Lets go HESTER

[splintersag]

Nice stop by the D to squish any early momentum the Colts may've got.

 

Now time for you know who!

[UMFan83]

Time for the first 3 and out of the year!

[Cynosure]

Hester almost broke loose... dammit!

 

25 Yards not bad for first return of the year.

[Keener98]

Damn hes exciting. Now time for the offense. Hide the women and children

[Soul]

What I saw on that drive was some pretty good playmaking to get the stop, but also some ineffective blitzes up the middle against that inexperienced Colts core.

Time for the first 3 and out of the year!

 

:lol:

That statement just show how truly amazing he is. A 25 yard return in scrumptious but with Hester its ordinary

[cubweiser03]

Bears defense win preseason wasnt as intricate as what we just saw.

Lots press coverage too.

[Keener98]

HAHAHAHAHA omg its going to be a long year

[Cynosure]

First snap of the season is a fumble and penalty.

[cubweiser03]

Bears false start to start.

Go figure.

[Soul]

If it wasn't so sad it would be funny.

[Outshined_One]

Man, the fake crowd noise is louder than ever.

Oh yea, I agree... but it sucks he got tripped up he was clear of 75% of the defenders.

[Cynosure]

Guess you were right about the first 3 and out.

 

Wow... get a real QB please.

[Keener98]

Was Orton aiming to hit a ground squirrel?

[Handlebar McSkullet]

Time for the first 3 and out of the year!

[Soul]

Freeny came through both St. Clair and Forte on that 3rd down play.

 

So much for being ineffective due to lingering injury concerns. Orton better watch his back because the pass protection sure isn't going to.
