  1. Wasn't it enough that you embarrassed us once at home already? You won on a last-second FG. It's not like you won by 4 TD's. I stand behind everything I said Week 3, so I won't rehash it here. Even with all the penalties and such the Bears still had their hands full all game long. We can beat the Bears in Chicago or Green Bay. Bring them on. Nothing would be sweeter than ending their season on their home field and sending all the Bears fans home crying. In Chicago or Green Bay huh? Tought talk considering the Packers already lost in Chicago. Can you beat the Bears anywhere else? How about in Detroit? Or are the Lions the only team you have trouble with there? At least we can beat the Lions at home without the help of some BS "completing the catch" rule. I'm gonna be crying about that during our first round bye.

  3. Bears had an absolutely awful October. Outside of that, they've been pretty damn good.
  4. The silliest thing about that article is he only counts marquee games as the ones in which the Bears looked bad. Philly and Green Bay? Don't count. Miami on a Thursday? Nope. Minnesota on a Monday night? Wrong again. The other most stupid point was in saying the Bears defense needed the other team to make mistakes to win...which is basically the entire scheme of the defense. He wants the Bears to be good at "something"....apparently defense and special teams aren't something. If he's only focusing on the Jets game, then you can say offense and special teams. Also he mentions that they were exposed on "Sunday night". Uh.
  5. Somebody print this article out and put it in the Bears locker room. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=AspLJG3m3pUBqpj7fHdG5JBDubYF?slug=lc-suspectbears122610
  6. Granted on NE, but is giving up 27 points horrible? It's certainly not great, but I think horrible is overstating it.
  7. The difference between Forte and Taylor right now is massive. Taylor is just completely unable to get anything going. I'm starting to wonder if they'll keep him, with the money they're shelling out for him.
  8. Receivers are more comfortable with routes. O-line is doing better, and Martz is calling shorter drops when necessary, along with quick passes. Running game has been getting stronger, which has helped too. I don't think Martz is gonna be getting head coach offers this season. He still has a rep that I dont' think he's shed yet.
  9. Let the Packer love from the media begin! or...continue...whatever.
  10. According to this article, the Jets lined up with 10 men on the field for the play where Hester caught the TD pass... http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/columns/story?columnist=cimini_rich&id=5958105
  11. I'll chalk that up to Australia not having a good feed of the game, but the 5 point differential hardly told the story. All of Philly is laboring under the delusion that that game was actually close.
  12. The Bears are a dome team stuck playing outdoors. That's the best thing about the last 3 weeks though. I think they've learned how to play in the snow.
  13. It's the only game that is meaningful regardless of other games that are played earlier in the day.
  14. Yes, the Eagles will have played 2 games between now and the time the Bears next play.
  15. Yeah...I said it was unlikely... :) I'm just amused by the scenario.
  16. Anybody else thinking that the #2 seed is probably preferable to the #1 seed at this point? The #1 seed may well have to face either GB or NYG in the 2nd round. The #2 seed wouldn't see them until the NFC Championship game. In fact, as I've mentioned before, it's possible (though obviously unlikely) that the #1 seed would be playing GB or NYG while the #2 seed gets the NFC west winner...heh. Obviously that assuming no NFC south craziness.
  17. Gonna be fun. Everyone and their brother is gonna be picking the Pack all week long. Bears are gonna have plenty of material to make them feel like the "underdog" this week.
  18. Yes, if the Giants and Eagles lose. But the Eagles don't play until Tuesday now, so we'll have to wait. I really wanted to see Vick play in a blizzard.
  19. Yes...with a Philly loss and NYG loss.
  20. Odd that we're rooting for the Packers and Vikings this week...heh.
  21. Gonna be waiting awhile for that Queens/Eagles game blah. Would be so awesome to clinch a bye with a week left. If the Giants beat the Packers today, I might actually want the Eagles to win this week. Reason being, if the Giants win out, we actually need the Eagles to win one of their last 2 to get a bye. And I think its more likely the Eagles win this week than next week against Dallas. How do you figure? The Giants already have 5 losses. If we win next week, we get the #2 seed, regardless of other games. Unless you're assuming we lose to GB?
  22. lol...this thread really has a lot of baseball nerd nostalgia. I was almost as giddy (or maybe more giddy) about the Cubs getting Nomar then I was about the Bears getting Cutler.
  23. John Hollinger has a fun article about the best "Big 3" teams of all time. Toni Kukoc sighting! http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?columnist=hollinger_john&page=PERDiem-101224
  24. Haha I didn't catch that while I was watching the game but you are right! You should have read the later posts. Biggs corrected himself. Henderson had been pushed out of bounds because of some great blocking by the Bears. You can see two Bears blocking him out of bounds as soon as the punt is in midair.
