Bears game 7: Sunday Oct. 24 vs WAS on FOX

[Magnetic Curses]

with that, only my teams, gentlemen.

 

this is another example of getting laughably unlucky in addition to being bad.

 

we really deserved to win this game. we were better.

[UMFan83]

You know what's funny? The Bears are all but guaranteed to remain atop the NFC north for another 3 weeks unless we somehow lose to Buffalo.

[SpongeWorthy]

Sitting here right now, I can't remember how we got 4 wins.

 

Can't believe it. And can't remember it.

 

The Bears have lobotomized me.

 

lol

 

sounds about right

[Careless]

And the Bears still probably win if Lovie calls the right challenge.

[Wilson A2000]

Troy: Why don't the Bears pick on Hall?

 

Next play, Hall's 4th INT

That is not what he said

 

...by performing a double move. They obviously aren't smart enough to change their strategy. The Bears offense is the definition of a psychotic individual - they do the same thing every time and expect different results.

At least I'm pretty sure

 

GB beats Minnesota

 

Chi 4-3

GB 4-3

Min 2-4

Det 1-5

 

then its a bye week for GB and Chicago

 

Chi 4-3

GB 4-3

Min 3-4

Det 2-5

 

Then its buffalo, assuming chi wins

 

Chi 5-3

GB 5-3

Min 4-4

Det 3-5

 

So unless the Bears lose to Buffalo (which is definitely possible), they are guaranteed to be atop the division until November 13th

[rawaction]

At least the OL played well. :banghead:

[rawaction]

At least we're not the Saints. Getting blown the eff out at home vs. Cleveland.

Ok for one, GB looses tonight.

 

And 2nd, the Packers play the Jets next week so that leaves GB at 3-5.

I'm playing "worst case scenario" where even if everything goes wrong, the Bears will still be in first place for another 3 weeks unless we lose to Buffalo

[minnesotacubsfan]

WHATS HILARIOUS IS THAT MOST PEOPLE WOULD SAY A 4 SACK GAME IS A DISASTER FOR THE O-LINE, BUT FOR US, IT WAS A GOOD GAME BY THE O-LINE

 

 

ANGELO, YOU SUCK. i CANT SAY IT ENOUGH

[ELCABALLO45]

Oh well the Packers still dont have a bye next week.

[jersey cubs fan]

There is plenty to say about play on field but lovie's stuupidity cost them the game. Not indirectly or theoretically. That man's incompetence lost the game. He sucks

[UMFan83]

when the hell is their bye then?

 

OK turn definitely into probably still in 1st.

I really can't thing of one single thing that Lovie Smith does well as a football coach

[kujay]

I could not believe there was no challenge. It wasn't fathomable that you wouldn't make that challenge. Incompetence is the perfect way to describe it. This is the NFL. They can do better. We deserve better.

[Smack]

[expletive] you Jay Cutler and [expletive] you Lovie Smith. You both suck.

I understand if Lovie didn't want to lose the challenge and lose 2 timeouts in a row. But he shouldn't have challenged the first damn play. And that's a chance you take. It's either 7 points or 0 points and you don't have the ball. You still had the lead at that point. If you go up 21-10 who cares if you have 1 timeout. If you don't get the call, you still have the lead and were in position (a few more times) to score and make the timeout situation moot.

3 weeks, after we play Dallas.

And this is what's wrong with Lovie Smith. I'm sure the reason why he didn't challenge it is because he challenged the previous play and lost. That play has nothing to do with this one. Replays showed that not only did it look lik eCutler crossed the goal line, that his forward progress was clearly stopped before the fumble. He had 2 outs there and elected to sit on his hands.

Well if they go up 21-10, they still have 2 TOs

[Careless]

You can't challenge forward progress being stopped for that purpose, can you?
