    13 YARDS RUSHING and Cutler had 11 of those

    you didn't think we were pissed about it? where were you? yea, we are analyzing the punt return harder, but only because it is being dismissed as a pointless play that "didnt matter". The Woodson molestation was pretty universally accepted as that. In the heat of the moment that call I saw the anger towards it but all the complaining about the call seemed to be more focused on the punt. Maybe I misinterpreted. Its anger that Woodson gets away with a blatant PI, and Graham gets called for a hold no one can verify. Both had bad consequences for the Bears in regards to points. For me, the inconsistency of the officiating is maddening. If your going to "let them play", then let them play. That, or call everything that might be close.

    I was thinking about this too. Toub could set this up exactly the same, only have Hester actually field it. Since Knox and Co have tricked one team, they would have to cover both. right? The only catch is that the punt team should KNOW which direction the punt is going. Thats why it was so brilliant. GB KNEW where the punt would go, and still allowed the Bears return team dictate their coverage in a very lopsided way to the wrong side of the field. Thats the power of Hester as a return guy, and Toub using his head. Run it again, and the coverage team will just run right at Knox because thats where they kicked the ball (and know they kicked it).

    I had totally forgot about this. was he on that SB team? I'm about 99% sure of this.

    yea. an NFL game is JUST like a lottery ticket. they should just hand NE the trophy now, there's no point in playing the games. I think you might have missed the point, just a tad. I got his point, but it is stupid to try and argue that the Bears had that opportunity when they didn't.

    Right but your asking for a recovered onside kick with receivers who have showed bad hands for a lot of the game, the offensive line to hold up(which they did most of the game but still) and for Cutler to throw accurate passes most of the game. I mean the Bears longest play in the 2nd half was 6 plays. I just don't see how the Bears would have tied or won that game given what was taken place in the game. Too me it's just people complaining that the Bears didn't win by 3 instead of 10. again: SHANE MATTHEWS. its been done.

    there were 51 seconds left when Knox scored, putting the Bears down by 3. That isn't impossible http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2011092511/2011/REG3/packers@bears#menu=highlights&tab=analyze&analyze=playbyplay

    it wouldn't have been as big a deal to me if Hester wasn't illegally mauled by Woodson earlier. its just adds insult to injury really. Besides, there still would have been some time on the clock for an onside kick. For those of us older then 5, we can remember the Bears pulling off two victories in row that were that tight in regards to time left. To say it didnt matter isn't really true
  16. minnesotacubsfan
    lol. that pumpkin beer must be really good if it effects your thinking that way. maybe I should try it.
  17. minnesotacubsfan
    Guys on the punt coverage team get hit running down the field all the time. hell, the outside cover guys get thrown off the field by 2 blockers 1/2 the time. That call is just completely bs.
  18. minnesotacubsfan
    I'm confused http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=312670201

    My guess is they probably set up for it quite a bit, but there's not too many punts that it will actually work out perfectly like that. I bet if you go back and look at tape over the last couple of weeks, the Bears did try it but the kicking team was, you know, paying attention. And not being held on the way down the field if the GB guy had turned towards Knox and was being held, that would be one thing. But he was running completely away from the ball towards Hester. Graham has his hand on his shoulder pad running down the field. The GB guy turns away from Knox who has the ball and Graham completely separates from him. Where is the hold?
  20. minnesotacubsfan
    SP players run down the filed all day long with a hand on the other guy, that isn't a hold. Its not like Graham altered the direction of the GB player.
  21. minnesotacubsfan
    that or the Lions were really bad at committing penalties.
  22. minnesotacubsfan
    I'm surprised that the word filter didnt pick that one up....
  23. minnesotacubsfan
    just wait until the Lions get consistently screwed on calls when playing GB. then I'll point out how "stupid" your comments are. yeah, i always make a complete ass out of myself when that happens exhibit a viewtopic.php?f=44&t=58233&p=2501927#p2501927 so the one time the Lions got ass-fucked on a call you held your temper? ok. I stand corrected.
  24. minnesotacubsfan
    of course. but there were blatant missed calls today that really hurt. The no-call PI on Woodson and the "hold" on Graham were huge, game altering. also, its not like GB was incredibly dirty, but the refs were flat out horrible.
