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

Wait, at this point how can you declare the defense as being "lucky" with their turnovers? The Lions made mistakes, but they didn't occur in a vacuum; they made those mistakes largely because of what the defense was doing.

Cutler just admitted on ESPN that the ribs were bothering him after the hit, and affecting the playcalling.

I'm saying the team was lucky that Joique Bell decided to do something really stupid there.

Also, nights like tonight make me question my unrelenting love for DirecTV. Damn rain.

Am I the only one not all that enthused about this game? I wanted 28-3 or something.

 

A win is a win and all that, but winning pretty is way more fun than winning ugly and I want to leave that 2005 stuff in 2005.

 

I take any and all division wins. That defense was incredible.

 

It was, but we also got really lucky with the red zone blowups/turnovers.

 

Don't know what Bell was thinking extending where he extended.

 

Maybe but the Bears got unlucky that Tillmans forced fumbles both went out of bounds. Luck evens out in the end.

I was glad to see Cutler start the get in the face of Carimi tonight. It's about time. Everyone wants to make Webb the whipping boy, but Carimi is stinking up the joint, playing a much less difficult position. This dude just sucks right now.

I will say that the play that we got the touchdown on was really cool to watch develop.

Webb gets more attention because he's playing the most important position on the line and he's so horribley bad at it AND he's been a jackass about it. Carimi's a rookie, and to say "about time" like you think people have just been shrugging it off and nobody's said anything to him is just stupid.

And the Lions were lucky they didn't have even more turnovers.

Lions fans reaction on the web seems to be "We lost the game, the Bears didn't win, the Bears are not impressive"

 

We were looking pretty good until your oaf slammed our QB down. And guess what, sometimes you can't just blame turnovers on your team and give no credit to the defense whose leading the league in TOs.

Nate Burleson is done for the year with a broken leg. Sucks to hear and I guess that means his prediction making is done for the time being.

Wow, I'm not sure I even saw that happen.

Webb was great tonight, and been pretty good the past few games. Nobody's really mentioned his name, so that's always a good thing for a left tackle.

The line was NOT "great" tonight. Webb's range is from "terrible" to "Cutler can survive."

You missed that? The broadcast focused on him leaving the game on a cart for like 5 minutes.

[Guest]

really concerned about this rib injury lingering. that's the main reason i'm so sour right now.
