  1. Interesting observation, but I'm gonna say that is more of a coincidence. Cutler was bound to play a lot better in the game regardless of how much pressure was on him. I mean maybe he doesnt finish the game 20-23 with 320 yards and 2 TDs, 0 INTs if Freeney stays in there, but I don't necessarily think Cutler will suck whenever he faces a pass rush this year. In terms of the top 10 best pass rushes in the NFL last year according to FO, we played the Vikings (twice), Eagles and Broncos. Denver and the 2nd Minnesota game don't count because Cutler didn't play, but in the other 2 games, the Bears went 2-0 and Cutler had QB ratings of 96.9 and 115.9.
  2. nononono I'm done with athletes named john scott.
  3. Speaking of idiot Bears fans..... http://www.thebiglead.com/index.php/2012/09/10/video-female-bears-fan-falls-off-a-stripper-pole-during-tailgating/
  4. Speaking of Rodgers, this is going to be an interesting week for him:
  5. Also, I honestly didn't get a good evaluation on Shea McClellen yesterday, but as someone who was hoping the Bears drafted Chandler Jones when the Bears pick came up, I've been following him closely. It sucks that he had a huge camp and was able to force a big fumble yesterday that was returned for a TD. To me Shea seems like a bit of a project because of his size and maybe does find a way to be more valuable over his career, but as it stands right now, Jones looks like the a stud and Shea hasn't shown us much yet.
  6. Ugh Havent seen anyone else talking about this so its possible SI is making something out of nothing here. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/daily-jolt/09/10/daily-jolt-monday/index.html#ixzz264l8k0eQ
  7. Ahh, the value of an elite receiver, right Jerry Angelo?
  8. We'll see. The Bears defense seems to often, but not always, rise to the occasion against GB, so I think we have a decent enough shot at winning. But yes, the Packers absolutely do not want to start the season by losing consecutive home games. They are definitely the more desperate team here.
  9. I'm not sure why anyone would be surprised about Cutler's comments being sports talk fodder. As soon as I heard his press conference, I figured we would hear about that all day. At least it shuts up the Urlacher talk. I have absolutely no problem with Cutler's comments or how he said it, but I can totally see non-Bears fans who don't see Cutler talk on a weekly basis thinking his comments sounded douchy, especially the way he sounded while making them. But then again, those are the people who irrationally hate Cutler because ESPN told them to.
  10. Personally, I didn't think Urlacher was all that bad. As I said during the game, he was closing in on RBs and WRs with his usual quickness and he was dropping back quickly as well, although I didnt notice a lot of sideline to sideline movement, which is something people expected him struggle with.
  11. Because they don't have to spend 3 years with Johnny Knox as their go to receiver?
  12. Ugh. This game has been crazy so far, maybe Boise has one run left in them.
  13. I think the Bears are owed a lot of TOs from the last couple of years if the rule is that you don't get charged a TO with the clock stopped. All those plays where Cutler called a TO with the play clock running down. we got screwed!!
  14. There was a pass interference call just a second ago...it was funny because Edwards (the intended receiver) started walking back to the huddle with his head down, mad that he couldnt make the catch, when all the sudden he realizes he got a flag. Not used to seeing pass interference called when the receiver isnt crying for it. And wow did they botch the 3rd TO thing just now. Embarassing. Paul Tagliabue is turning over in his grave.
  15. I would think so since the other team went 15-1 in the regular season last year. Maybe you call them even in terms of skill, but since the Packers were at home, they would be the favorites, thus making a 49ers win an upset.
  16. Hah, would be awesome to send the Packers to 0-2 with 2 home losses on Thursday.
  17. I don't think he was talking about luck the QB....
  18. Wow, that was un-Rodgers like
  19. This will be a damn good measuring stick game.......for the Packers ;)
  20. Jennings is a [expletive] superstar
  21. The announcers want to say that Luck and Cutler have played to a draw, they just can't quite blurt it out, so I can't call them idiots yet.
  22. Bill Belichick wouldnt punt here.
  23. Shea has done nothing. Dline probably the worst part of the team today. No pressure all day. They actually got a ton of pressure the first 2 Colts drives of the game. But not much else since then.
