  1. Can we not have silly, frivolous playcalling on a day when it looks like the defense doesn't have it at all? Just play simple football
  2. Do you really need to gift them another touchdown? Come on refs
  3. Still hasn't been a punt in this game hahaha
  4. Man that's unfortunate. Sucks this'll turn into a rout. There are few things I want more than the domination of the Packers to end, but it'll never end. Pretty much 25 straight years of domination.
  5. I don't even understand how these throws are possible.
  6. Shame they're going to lose the game they finally learn to run the ball. Oh well
  7. Ah dang, that's probably game
  8. Even though it's coming back it's just *stupid* that Aaron Rodgers can do that
  9. Apparently Jared Allen was more important than we had given him credit before
  10. SOMEONE GET OFF A BLOCK
  11. Haha the refs are gonna get murdered on the way out of the stadium
  12. Jesus there's no way they rule that a TD and that sucks End up getting no points. A shame.
  13. In meta-meta-game it was wise to onside kick because you're limiting the time it'll take for them to score and give your offense a chance to drive Smart move
  14. I just can't believe there's no way the Bears can't get *one * just one stop
  15. It doesn't even seem like Bears dlinemen want to get off the blocks
  16. Can't hate the onside kick, the Bears can't get a stop at all. Gotta find a way to get a pass rush
  17. Damn that's a really nifty play call. This is the best the Bears offense has looked all season. Too bad about that defense.
  18. Kadeem Carry looks likes he's gonna be awesome
  19. Bucaneers (-46.2) were 2nd worst, and Patriots (-38.7) were 3rd. Best 3 were Arizona (+34.3), Detroit (+30.0) and Carolina (+21.2) http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10306488/teams-most-least-production-2013-draft-picks-nfl It's because Bostic, Mills, and Greene were among the worst at their positions according to their scoring. I think Mills' lack of success is overblown. They have him as the worst OT in the league. He gave up a lot of pressures, but only 3 sacks. They basically equate sacks and pressures the same. Off the top of my head, I don't think he gave up a sack of Cutler at all. All his sacks allowed came AFTER the Washington game. Maybe he gave up 1 in the Philly game, but I remember Forte being responsible for about 2-3 and Kyle Long for 1. Yeah, honestly I didn't find Mills to be glaring at all. Maybe its because of how accustomed I've gotten to simply disastrous O-line play but I felt like both Long and Mills were serviceable at worst and that means a lot of good things to look forward to. Now, Cutler and especially McCown were deft in the pocket, but that's all you gotta do, give em a chance to get the ball out. The run blocking was disappointing, especially as evidenced by how poorly they did on short yardage plays, but I think some of that goes to Garza being pushed around and Long mostly being out of position.
  20. The HOF was already a mess before the voting committee decided to become Judge, Jury and Executioner on STEROIDS but now its going to be an even bigger laughingstock. They're consigning their own hallowed ground to irrelevance by not putting in the best modern day hitter and best modern day pitcher in there. Oh well. I hope they have fun with all the murderers, rapists, domestic abusers, substance abusers (!!!!!) and various other cheaters in there. All that said, Frank Thomas definitely gets in first ballot, take a look at this blog accumulating public ballots: http://www.baseballthinkfactory.org/newsstand/discussion/the_2013_hof_ballot_collecting_gizmo/P200/ Looks like Maddux, Glavine, Thomas and Biggio (lol) That Bagwell will wallow in middling votes for years is a [expletive] disgrace because his partner Biggio ain't half the player he was.
  21. Ugh I can't even begin to want to think about the off-season, I need space, like after a bad ending to a relationship
  22. This season managed to squeeze every inch of heart ache that it could out of it. It's almost an art piece. At no point did the Bears ever feel very comfortable, every small victory was snatched away immediately, like so many Chris Conte's falling at the feet of receivers. There were barely any easy victories. Just, blergh. And yet tons of progress was made over the course of the season. The NFL is a offensive passing league, and the Bears made vast improvement in that area. The defense is bad, atrocious even, but like the NBA this is a game where you are expected to hold serve, to score and and score and make occasional stops. That's what this game is turning into, and I'm glad they are planning for that new game. Painful though.
  23. He may or may not deserve it but I hope Mel Tucker gets fired
  24. They chopped off Cutler's head and put his Bears head on it SPILER ALERT
  25. Cutler played really well lol
