Big test

[UMFan83]

I still see 4-2 in those 6 games. Split the next 2, beat Minny and Seattle at home, split the @Minny and GB stretch

Houston scares me mainly due to their oline blowing holes in our defense and not allowing pressure.

[Banedon]

Win or lose, I'm excited to play some real teams.

Yeah....I think it's going to be up to Tice to create a solid "we're getting blown up and cutler has no time to throw" game plan to turn to when we get blown up and cutler has no time to throw.

I would like to see some dump offs to Rodriguez and it was encouraging to see some screens today

He was talking about their O-line vs our D-line.

Amazing that the Bears can go 3-5 the rest of the year and still have a fantastic shot at the playoffs. If they go 4-4 the rest of the year, only 2 teams in NFL history havent made the playoffs with what their record would be.

 

Sportsclubstats.com has the Bears playoff odds at 98.8% after today's win, which includes all the 4PM games except TB vs. Oak.

I figured the Texans might be a slight favorite, but I guess the Bears come out on top with the home game bump.

Even though it's entirely pointless, you have to figure that if the Bears somehow pull off a solid victory they will be at the top of most power rankings.

Mistakes are probably gonna win/lose this game. Houston doesn't make many though. I don't see either team having a great offensive output.

They haven't faced the Peanut Punch yet.

I won't be happy with less than 3 forced fumbles from Tillman. :)

Jay Cutler had a perfect 158.3 quarterback rating when throwing to Brandon Marshall.

I'm more concerned about the reverse. If Houston blows holes in our defensive line consistently, I'll congratulate them. I'm not conceeding that until I actually see it happen.

Hub says he is leaning Bears on Sunday night...lol

Nooo. I want him to pick against the Bears again.

[Banedon]

Hub thinks we need 3 or 4 new o-lineman....thinks Garza might be ok....

I know, that pissed me off because almost every Bears game article is considered premium. Between them and the DH, are they begging everyone to only visit the Sun Times website?
