    I think he's a little soft for the coach's liking and they didn't like how he kept saying things like "they aren't telling me anything." It's a matter of choosing to do what you're told as a player or only doing what you want to do. If he was a little more established he'd probably have a leg to stand on, but as a journeyman with just a couple games under his belt, he's got to work harder. One of the Score producers tweeted this last night... Mulligan this morning said that supposedly one of the things that he told Rosenhaus was "they don't tell me anything".

    Harris has been benched, but it's been suspensions...never just a performance based coaches decision like this. Lovie even said that Tommie has done what the coaches have asked....which, if you believe Lovie, means that Tommie just isn't the best option out there right now...and I don't think Lovie would have made that decision. Hey, Smith has had a good year so far. He's made some mistakes, but I don't hate him nearly as much as I have in other years. Is that giving him enough credit? :)

    The Giants are a 4-3. Bears haven't seen that since the Lions game. I'm interested to see how the Martz offense does against a 4-3 now that they've gotten more comfortable in the system. Eli might be the worst quarterback we've seen since the Lions game. Certainly the most mistake prone. I'm excited to get this one done with so we can get back to Sunday afternoon games. Prime time games suck.

    Is he the best coach on his own team? Lovie looks a WHOLE lot better when he has other guys that know what they're doing calling plays and able to do their job. Lovie doesn't have to do as much with this team as he has since he forced out Ron Rivera. Marinelli, Tice and Martz are all doing a really great job with this team. It's a team that's developing. Tommie Harris, Zach Bowman...I don't think those guys get pulled last year. I think that's Marinelli doing that.

    What about the holding penalty on Tauscher that negated the Packer TD? I say it evened out. Except that Tauscher held. And Melton hit Rodgers in the head with his helmet. Your point? Well if that's your argument, why didn't you say so? lol Why bring up Tauscher's hold? It's irrelevant if you think Melton's penalty was legit. Keener thought it wasn't.

    I'm not sure what you mean. First few weeks of the season we beat GB 26-0, DET 34-7, MIN 19-16, defending NFC champ SEA 37-6, BUF 41-7 before the lucky Arizona game. Before that game we were generally regarded as the first or second best team in the league. We were #1 in ESPN power rankings. Yeah, they started off great...you're right. But as the season went on they were winning with ST and Defense. I didn't mean that it was following the pattern game for game. Just that the style of wins has some similar characteristics. Don Banks already pretty much writing the Bears off as "lucky".... http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/don_banks/09/28/packers.bears.5things/index.html

    I'm ashamed to admit...I'm glad that we don't see the Packers again till the last game. I'm hopeful that game will be irrelevant.

    I'm not going to suggest this is a Super Bowl year for the Bears, cuz that's obviously putting the cart WAY before the horse here... But is this season reminding anyone else of the start of the Super Bowl run a few years ago? The Bears "lucked" their way to wins...were generally ridiculed for not being as good as their record would indicate, and generally under-appreciated nationally. Hester running back kicks, Bears winning with bend (a lot) but don't break (often), being incredibly stingy with rushing yards... Just seems like I've done the whole arguing about "the Bears got a gift win" before. At some point, can we say that talent helps cause penalties, and forcing long drives helps create chances for turnovers? I'm not convinced we're the best team in the league, but we're clearly damn good and should be in the conversation.

    They were showing the Bears warming up, and showed Garza practicing snapping the football. Wtf.

    Weird game to choose to send a message.

    Tommie Harris is inactive for tonight. Coaches Decision. Aromashodu is also inactive.

    Are you boycotting it or something? It's not posted yet for some reason...or is my browser just jacked up? EDIT: Oh...they had it linked on the SI front page, but not on the NFL page for some reason. Oops.

    As much as I disagree with Peter King on everything ever...I'm going through a little MMQB withdrawal this morning.

    Here's what I know about the Titans. Keith Hernandez, Walt Frazier, and Emmitt Smith need to have talk with Jeff Fisher. His beard is not weird.

    So...Nevada makes the rankings. If they can hold onto it, that means Boise State gets to play a 3rd ranked opponent.

    Knowshon Moreno was ruled out of Sunday's game rather suddenly.... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/09/24/knowshon-moreno-surprisingly-ruled-out-against-colts/

    Moreno was just ruled out for Sunday's game. Adjust accordingly. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/09/24/knowshon-moreno-surprisingly-ruled-out-against-colts/
