Feel free to go back and read your responses man, I'm not wasting any more time watching you be defensive about a dumb knee-jerk reaction.

 

It's not a "knee-jerk reaction" when I've been down on the offense for most of the season; they're simply too inconsistent, and as great as the defense has been too much of this season has been reliant on an otherworldly and unsustainable level of defensive scoring. Now they've likely made the OL even worse and they still have a terrible OC running the offense too often. I mean, the crux of my argument is that the OL is terrible, Tice is terrible and the defense can't sustain the level of scoring production that all but carried the team for a while there. If people want to disagree with the idea they wouldn't be likely to get anywhere in the playoffs, fine, but it's not like my reasoning is based out of anything that I don't think anyone would disagree with here.

Please come back, Tillman

I don't even know why we need to write paragraphs about this: Make the playoffs and you have a chance to do something - so just make the post season

 

Its not like, likely that we win the superbowl but whatever make the playoffs

[Soul]

Uh, keep them out of the damn end zone plz.

Well, yeah; I thought it was clear that I'm not rooting for them to not make the playoffs or that I don't WANT them to win. I just don't think it's likely they get anywhere if they're facing a team that didn't back their way in. It's football, so who knows how things will play out or who will be injured or what the weather will be like and what a seemingly infinite list of factors will be like...I'm just not a fan of the odds I've made up in my head. It's mostly that I'm frustrated that this is a team full of talent that has really, really stupid and obvious weaknesses that could and should have been avoided so they're not wasting that talent.

At least Cutler looked good in the pocket there, not much for him to do with the ball though

[Guest]

I know Davis actually managed to catch a ball but when the [expletive] is Rodriguez going to see the field as a TE?

[ctcf]

ProTip, Jay: Don't look for Kellen Davis.

I imagine you guys have seen this, but wtf

Embarrassing. If I wasn't already a Jay Cutler fan, crap like this would make me such a big jay cutler fan.

[ctcf]

Damnit, nice tackling by Winfield.

[rawaction]

Forte has to break that tackle

[BigSlick]

Forte appears (I know I could be nitpicking) to go down to ankle tackles way too easily, some of these could be huge plays and he's stopped

[Sammy Sofa]

RODRIGUEZ!

[Guest]

Evan sighting!!

[ctcf]

WOOO! Great first catch for Evan!
