  1. Heinrich? C'mon its been a decade :)
  2. Pro-tankers have to love that especially while playing the Bucks. I'm not necessarily pro-tank but this is a reason why I think we need to dismantle the team by trading away Noah, Deng and amnestying Boozer after the year. How many times every year do we have games where 3-4 starters are out? I love Noah and Deng but by now it's pretty much a given that they are going to be injured or banged up a significant portion of he season.
  3. Where are the Tweets that look this way? These were the first 2 tweets I saw when I searched for 'The Jay Cutler Show"
  4. Has anyone been listening to Waddle and Silvy this afternoon? From Twitter it looks as though they've been ripping on Cutler or at least taking McCown in the debate. And now the interesting thing...yesterday they were promoting the Jay Cutler Show as if Jay was going to be on it today, but apparently now BMarsh is going to be on the show.
  5. With so many young stud receivers emerging this year, I'd be interested to see how people would rank the top 5-10 WRs currently in the game.
  6. You also have to remember that Cutler started most of his games during the first few games of A) a new head coach, B) a new offensive coordinator, coaching staff and scheme, and C) a completely rebuilt offensive line with 4 new players, 2 rookies starting McCown has also had to play under these conditions but after 7 games of acclimation.
  7. Interesting. There's some good games they are skipping over, but I'm guessing they want a game that's more likely to effect both teams chances of making the playoffs. It seems almost certain that either Eagles-Cowboys or Bears-Packers will be flexed in Week 17 so one of these 2 teams will get 2 SNF games in a row.
  8. Looking at Bears individual statistical performances and their ranking in the NFL: Cutler/McCown: 64.7 completion percentage (would be 7th in the NFL) 3,715 yards (would be 6th in the NFL) 26 TD (would be T-5th in the NFL) 9 INT 98.3 Rating (would be T-8th in the NFL) Total QBR: McCown - 85.7 (1st), Cutler 63.2 (10th). McCown's Total QBR is the 4th best of any qualified QB in the 8 years ESPN has tracked it. Only 2006 Manning, 2007 Brady and 2011 Rodgers had higher ones. Projections over a full 16 game season: 4,556 yards, 32 TD, 11 INT Forte: 1,073 yards (4th in NFL) 4.6 YPC (T-8th among RBs with at least 90 carries) 7 TD (T-6th in NFL) 58 rushing 1st downs (3rd in NFL) Projections over a full 16 game season: 1,321 yards, 80 catches, 638 yards receiving, 11 total TDs (9 rushing, 2 passing) Marshall: 84 catches (4th in NFL) 1,090 yards (8th in NFL) 9 TDs (9th in NFL) Projections over 16 game season: 103 catches, 1,342 yards, 11 TD Jeffery: 75 catches (T-7th in NFL) 1,193 yards (5th in NFL) 6 TD (T-22nd in NFL) Projections: 92 catches, 1,468 yards, 7 TD
  9. They said he is probably going to be taking a job in the Padres front office
  10. I...umm...what? http://deadspin.com/heres-josh-mccown-telling-a-really-weird-story-in-an-a-1480336919
  11. The Bears had the 24th best offensive DVOA last year, 30th in 2011, 28th in 2010, 28th in 2009. Even with bad pieces, that doesn't strike me as doing an elite job with a bad offense.
  12. I'm about 6 months older than Kerry Wood. His retirement made me sad. I'm starting to think that I'm not going to be a major league baseball player :(
  13. Somewhat plausible way the Jags can still make the playoffs: Jags win last 3 games and.... Week 15 Denver* beats San Diego Kansas City beats Oakland* Chicago beats Cleveland* Carolina* beats NY Jets New England beats Miami* Arizona beats Tennessee* Cincinnati beats Pittsburgh* Detroit* beats Baltimore. Week 16 Buffalo* beats Miami Cleveland beats NY Jets* Green Bay* beats Pittsburgh Oakland beats San Diego* New England beats Baltimore* Week 17 Cincinnati* beats Baltimore NY Jets beat Miami* Almost all of those scenarios seem possible except maybe Oakland winning in SD and the Jets winning in Miami, but of course this is the NFL and its always unpredictable.
  14. Bears are now 2nd in the NFL in points scored (28.3 PPG) and 7th in total yards. But according to a Dallas writer:
  15. Browns currently favored by 2.5 points.
  16. It's going to be a really big decision next week if Cutler is cleared to play No its not. If Cutler is healthy he will play without question. I would imagine, but the decision is still really important. You can't throw away a half with this defense waiting to see if Cutler can perform. How'd that go the other time they brought back Cutler after he was cleared by the doctors to play but couldn't make all the throws, couldn't escape, and had to dial back the playbook? he looked fine until he suffered the ankle injury
  17. Most of the starting D still out there. Why risk getting more injuries?
  18. It's going to be a really big decision next week if Cutler is cleared to play No its not. If Cutler is healthy he will play without question.
  19. Jay Cutler/Josh McCown combined through (almost) 13 games: 313-484 64.7% 3,702 yards (4,556 projected) 26 TD (32 projected) 9 INT (11 projected) 98.0 Rating
  20. Everything's OK huh?
  21. Major Wright just kind of stands there as a ball goes buzzing by him into the receiver's arms for a TD
  22. This is terrible, I don't care if we're winning by 28.
