  1. The last time the Bears beat the 49ers, they went to the Super Bowl.
  2. Just as everyone expected, the Bears lead the NFC North and the only undefeated teams in the NFL are Arizona, Carolina, Philly, Buffalo, Houston, Cincy and Denver.
  3. Cutler 23/34 176 yards 4 TD 0 INT 119.2 QBR.
  4. They are who we thought they were?
  5. Part of me wishes they did two teams, because MLB would never do a single expansion.
  6. Counting the postseason, Kane County was 98-49 this season.
  7. I'm not sure it can be stated enough how much better Kane County was than...basically every other minor league team in baseball.
  8. Atlanta? Not quite, it opened in 1996, so it's the 4th oldest park in the NL. Obviously time to get a new park. Correct, Coors Field opened in 1995.
  9. Random baseball trivia: Wrigley Field and Dodgers Stadium are the two oldest parks in the NL. What is the 3rd oldest park?
  10. It's just half of one game, but the US team started looking tons better after they put in Rose to handle Dragic.
  11. Well, at least most Bear fans won't be clamoring for McCown after today.
  12. Same for Illinois.
  13. Saying a QB is a "big winner" is almost as stupid as saying a starting pitcher "knows how to win". The point is he's putting up numbers but it's not translating. Don't give me that weak starting pitcher comparison crap. That's not where I was going with it. It's not translating because it's a team sport. QB stats don't translate directly to wins. That's why it's a stupid point.

  15. Really, the one play that personified the day was the "jumped too early" catch by Woods, with Conte allegedly lining him up for a big hit, only to see Conte miss him almost completely.
  16. He is who he is, sure, but that's nowhere near who he is.
  17. Cutlers performance crushed me. I know he will have better games, and games where he will look like the best QB in the league but if there was any hope that Cutler would have a career year where he is consistently a great QB, it's gone now. I guess I shouldn't expect that kind of leap at age 31 anyways. Every QB makes dumb throws. He made 2 in the game, and one of those happened to be severely punished. I think you're overracting. 2? I didn't see the whole game and saw more than that. Lucky for him one of them bounced off the numbers of a defender. After Holmes fell down.
  18. I guess I will say that the Bears should have lost to the Lions in week 1 if not for a wacky rule in 2010 and ended up hosting the NFC title game. That said the Bears 2010 schedule was a LOT easier than the Bears juggernaut coming up. They are going to have to play a LOT better to even be 4-5 after the gauntlet ends. You have to look at the second half of the Bears' schedule and see that 4-5 at that point is still in good shape for the playoffs.
  19. Every big play for Buffalo today enhanced by Conte either being there late or not making the play once he got there. Santonio Holmes is no Alshon Jeffrey, unfortunately.
  20. You know people are overreacting irrationally when I bother to mention something about it. But at least we have Kyle here to be inciteful and Sponge to not get it. Irrational sports fans? How dare they! Everyone stop feeling things! I'll go get you another bale of hay for that strawman.

  22. First time in a NSBB game thread? :) Remember, this is exactly why many people don't go into the game threads, because people are insufferable idiots.
  23. Hey, at least nobody's spazzing out in the first half of the first game.
  24. 2.5, unless SD loses, since the Cubs would have to pass two of those three to get to 11th.
