BYE and Game 6 - Detroit Lions @ BEARS - 10/22 MNF 7:30

Cutler having ribs evaluated per twitter

 

I guess that's better than the head?

[El Duderino]

I wonder if his ribs fell off like Kolb's.

[Theo]

BBQ? Spare?

[rawaction]

Ribs? That's kinda best case.

[Magnetic Curses]

Tape them up and get him back in

[UMFan83]

Ribs are not nearly the worst case scenario right? Even if its broken that's a couple week injury instead of maybe a broken collarbone which might keep him out for the season.

I'm a bit stunned by our D. SO much fun

Does that even keep him out at all?

[Sammy Sofa]

Dammit, I have tickets for next week's game. He needs to be OK after this one.

I really depends on the severity of the rib injury. You can break bones, or just strain the muscle/ligament in between the ribs.

[UMFan83]

Welp, I went from jubilation to start the game to slightly concerned by halftime.

 

The Bears offense just kinda stopped working at a certain point, led by the offensive line.

I know, even when the other team does get a drive going, as a Bears fan you are almost just waiting for the turnover.

Lovie hoping for second half return

 

Maybe they were getting him in the locker room to give him a nice dose of pain killers and allow some extra time for them to take effect. And then just running him through the X-Ray just to make sure.

Lovie hoping for second half return

 

he said that?

Unless it is really the head and Jay is trying to get out of concussion protocol

[SpongeWorthy]

For the Bears, Ribs actually means "brain".

[rawaction]

I hate only having a 10 point lead with the Lions 2nd half history. Granted, the Bears D is really good. But something's gotta give, and I hope it's not our boys. If Cutler is not playing, it puts more pressure on the D.

[Smack]

Oh great, it's Wilson time. WTF

[Magnetic Curses]

Come on Jay!
