  1. This team is just...not very good? So yeah that will never happen
  2. Hahahha thats so stupid Dumb tuck rule again
  3. Welp! Those are the plays we're gonna need
  4. That- That is why you need points. Because this team can just magic up 30 yards at a time at will
  5. Oh my god. I guess thats a Moot point. Has a team ever wasted as many 50 yard plays as this one?
  6. Well Cutler was really upset there This is a really bad field position, can Mare hit a field goal here?
  7. Rodriguez should probably just put his head down there (not that its a big deal) I don't think you can juke out too many DBs as an H-Back in this league
  8. woops wrong thread
  9. lol Or Major Wright for that matter. Regardless, these things happen in a season. If Steve Smith doesn't fall down on one play we also lose a win
  10. eurgh...he could have lunged forward at gotten to the 15
  11. I'm not sure how Minnesota even has a better % odds. Bears should be favored to beat Detroit, Green Bay with something to play for should be favored to beat Minnesota. Obviously I don't know what all feeds into that % equation but on face value, I'd say I like the Bears chances. Well Minnesota has a 45% chance of making the playoffs and most of that is tied into the scenario of winning against GB. Lets say they have a 2% chance of making it if they lose (the Bears, Cowboys and Giants would have to lose I believe - the Cowboys so that they wouldn't win the division and push the Redskins into the WC picture), that would mean they are giving the Vikings a 43% chance of beating the Packers in Minnesota. I don't know if you see those accuscore projects that often, but a 57-43 spread in winning odds is pretty big, especially when the 43% if the home team, and a home team with a distinct HFA. The Bears will probably be favored by accuscore at most by a 53-47 margin, but probably close to a 52 or 51% favorite. So then add that to the 43% chance that the Vikings win, and it makes sense that the Bears would only be around 31% chance to make the playoffs despite the fact that Bears over Lions and Packers over Vikings would be the most realistic result. Not coincidentally that's roughly the chances Football Outsiders gives the Bears of making it
  12. Have you seen the Lions play lately? Yeah, even in their losses they move the ball effortlessly (except against an elite Bears unit thAt isn't on the field anymore) and the Bears can't move it at all. If someone put a gun to my head and asked me to pick a team, id bet on the Lions honestly Pretty much depends on the Lions self destructing (very possible) or the Bears putting up a surprisingly good offensive effort on the road. We shall see
  13. the most important thing about russell wilson is he looks *accurate* like hella accurate
  14. Yeah, whenever you need to depend on other things to happen including a win from your team, the odds are never THAT great, because there are just too many factors. Even if you put it very confident the Packers are going to win and (moderately) confident the Bears are gonna win, its still hard to even get to a coin flip
  15. There's really no good match up for the Bears OL or playcalling though I'm fine with this Seattle outcome as long as the Packers try next week, because if they try they probably win
  16. I don't really give myself the luxury of thinking which team to play because I just have nightmares of either Minnesota winning or the Bears laying an egg at Detroit (one of these seems inevitable)
  17. Hahah this game is so stupid.
  18. A whole lot of 3 and outs in this game, blargh. Would have been nice to see a bit more consistent and cohesive offense, aside from that one nice drive
  19. Hey I know you don't have many running backs left but in your own end zone don't run midget Armando Allen Weird this game isn't even in the 4th quarter yet it feels like it's been going forever
  20. Armando Allen seems like he tries hard but he's so tiny that the second he's touched he's on the ground
  21. "Ryan Lindley" who I'm pretty sure doesn't actually exist, wasn't even playing that badly. Poor made up dude :(
  22. Best post so far. I kinda vote for this to happen because we'll get some amazing Doug and OB postgames A good goal for Cutler would be to get his completion percentage up to 50%
  23. Wow. Ok, well that was a nice surprise, Cutler and co. Good play calling as well
  24. This game is so stupid. I wanted to watch either a pounding like Tennessee or a competitive game and I got kinda both and neither
