    they looked really really good, just looked hapless for a few minutes. It's clearly a really good looking team and probably deserving of their number 3 ranking

    Michigan's trying to blow this. Had a 15 point lead, now down to 5 as Michigan looks flustered offensively, and NC State is sprinting up the court and getting high percentage shots on offense. Let's see if Michigan can hold on in the last 2 minutes.

    Not that I am not impressed at that stat Podlesh gave us, but lets not start piling praise on the guy. He uses Net punt average which accounts for the length of his punt and the coverage team making the stop. Obviously the punter can affect this as well with his hang time though. Either way, despite having the highest and 2nd highest Net average in team history, his teams still ranked 8th and 21st in the NFL. Then you look at Gross punt average which is ust total distance a punt goes before a return, the Bears are 30th in the league there at 42.3 yards per attempt. The 1st place punter's average is 50.6. And last year the gross average was 43.9 yards, good for 22nd in the NFL well behind SF's punter who had an average of 50.9. So how much credit should we give the punter and how much the special teams unit that stops these returners?

    I'll take the 15 yard penalty there just because that play was so awesome. If you as a QB stiffarm a defender looking to clock you, you deserve to do whatever you want.

    9 days between posts in this thread says it all. No enthusiasm for this Bulls team. Oh and they just blew a 27 point 3rd quarter lead and lost at home to the Bucks. Yuuuuuup

    It's so weird to see Michigan #3 in the country. They played well last week beating Pittsburgh and KState (looked really good in that one), but they haven't been tested yet to earn that #3 spot. I'm excited to see how they do tomorrow against NC State which is their only ranked non-conference team they play.

    Thank God, the Bears have played in primetime enough this year. This likely means that the Bears won't be playing at night the rest of the season unless Detroit inexplicably turns their season around and is guaranteed a playoff spot with a victory in week 17. The NFL likes to schedule games like that in week 17, ere none of the day's action matters except for whether that team wins or loses.

    Ugh...2nd year in a row we hear about one of our offensive lineman having a really solid season, and then they go down for the year leaving the line in shambles. Hope you have enjoyed the scrambling this year Jay.

    Losing by double digits at home to Gardner Webb while they are missing their 2 best players and played halfway across the country the night before

    again?

    Vikings are 5-1 at home this year and the Metrodome is never an easy place to play. Not saying the Bears can't win just that it shouldn't be chalked up as an easy win.

    Combined score of the last 3 Bears-Vikings games at Soldier Field: 94-33 Overall the Bears have won 5 straight games at home against Minnesota
  13. UMFan83
    Spencer seems fine as he came back on the field during that FG attempt and ran back off.
  14. UMFan83
    Time of Possession: Chicago - 28:41 Minnesota - 12:22 Total plays: Chicago - 55 Minnesota - 30

    I heard on the radio yesterday that Brandon Marshall has accounted for 46% of the passing offense for the Bears this year. That is the highest percentage in the NFL since 1975.

    Matt Forte Lance Louis Charles Tillman Devin Hester Chris Spencer

    And its a 1 score game, and yet another Bear is injured. And there's still 6 minutes left in the 3rd
  18. UMFan83
    omg, we're blowing this.
  19. UMFan83
    For as much as we've run today, it's odd that we are only averaging 2.7 yards per carry.
  20. UMFan83
    How do the Vikings fool the Bears with the same play 4 times in the same game?
  21. UMFan83
    That's the 3rd time today in a 3rd and short situation that the Vikings went play action and dumped the ball off to the TE for an easy 1st down. And there's the 4th time right there for a TD. Adjustments?
  22. UMFan83
    He'd better get fined
  23. UMFan83
    Nice job catching the dirty hit that knocked one of our players out of the game refs
  24. UMFan83
    They should not count interceptions that are batted in the air by your teammate. Frustrating to see Cutler's INT numbers inflated because of that.
  25. UMFan83
    Injuries piling up today...now our best offensive lineman and best secondary player are out, along with our 3rd WR/punt returner and another offensive lineman
