This fact alone calls for a heavy dose of Benson and TJ to be in order. Not only are they weak against the run, but it keeps the ball out of the offense's hands. If the Bears get the lead, I'd hope for about a 3:1 run/pass ratio. Make it a real TOP battle.

The Bears had been playing throwaway games for a month. Those two situations aren't even close to comparable. You didn't point out anything that would suggest New Orleans should mow the Bears down. And this new trend of only talking about the most recent games is quite amusing. That's the same logic that had people picking the Eagles as the most complete, and most dangerous NFC team entering the playoffs. It's also why the Colts stood no chance to advance. The Saints are quite a flawed team. They lost to a bad Redskins team when the postseason positioning was still in doubt. They lost 6 games this year, to some very good, very mediocre and very bad teams. They've given up a lot of points to a lot of Only one of those losses can truly be considered throwaway. I think its pretty clear the Bears could hand them number 7 without anything out of the ordinary happening. Obviously this Bears team has its flaws, and Vegas is quite justified in only making them a 2.5 point favorite. I'll just say that I'm enjoying seeing the football world basically hand this game to the Saints, saying they are clearly the better team, and that its up to the Bears to prove people wrong. This is a very evenly matched ballgame. I don't see any reason why one side would think they're poised to mow down the other side, besides wanting to be a blowhard. Well said. =D>

I'm listening to a local sports radio guys here in BR and I heard him compare Grossman to Aaron Brooks. These morons are completely discounting the Bears. I used to be a Saints fan when I was much younger until I realized what kind of franchise they were destined to be. I never wanted to see this happen, but listening to the locals, I'm hoping that the Bears thoroughly destroy the Saints. I think the Bears win, but I want to stomp the Saints now.

GOULD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HUGE!!!!

Come on Hester.

Pick 6 , please???? Unfortunately, we'll get a heavy dose of Shaun Alexander.

TANK!!!!!!!!!!!

UN-EFFING REAL!!! 3 and forevers are being picked up like 1st and short.

HUGE STOP!!!!!

WOW.

Oh please be on SEA. DAMMIT!!! Would have been huge.

As my Dad always told me, "if it touches your hands, you ought to catch it." I was talking about the one after that...the one he overthrew his reciever by about a mile and there were two seahawks right there. Okay, that makes more sense.

As my Dad always told me, "if it touches your hands, you ought to catch it."

ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Should have had him stopped for 4th Down. DAMMIT!!! WTH is wrong with D?

SOB!!!!!

OMG, get your act together Hester.

Hester, stop doing that.

Good call!!!

Looked like initially, but now I'm not so sure. Fingers crossed, though.

I hope that's the last time we see such soft D/poor coverage this game.

DAMN. Just missed an INT. Come on P-Nut.

Nasty, indeed!

Awesome concentration by Davis.
