  1. Fire Angelo. No offensive improvements with $30 million to spend and the 30th ranked offense the previous year. This is inexcusable. I think Angelo is working for another NFC North team.
  2. We've gotta have the worst 3rd down defense in the NFL this year. It feels like out opponents get 1st downs exclusively on 3rd Down plays
  3. Apparently being 30 yards from tying the game with 2 minutes left isn't considered "making a game of it"
  4. True or False: The Bears offense will score 14 or more points this game. Ps fire Angelo
  5. This offense is broken
  6. I believe his velocity is down this year. I could be wrong though.
  7. I dont know if the Cardinals are done. Looking like 2 out with 4 to play. Cardinals play the Lastros and the Braves play the Phillies. Phillies will be resting starters but the Braves are seemingly in a tailspin so who knows. Cardinals will probably sweep.
  8. Aka I complain everytime someone directly or indirectly disrespects the Bears.
  9. Im sick of everyone thinking the Packers are God's gift to football. I get your point, but they are the reigning Superbowl champions, with the most talented roster in the league, who haven't lost a game that Aaron Rodgers has started and finished since November 2010. People have every right to think the Packers are going to kill the Bears. Just a look at the last 3 packers bears games, the last 2 with the season on the line for the packers should give us an indication of whether the packers have a gear that will cause them to destroy the Bears. Hell even in 09 when the Bears sucked they lost something like 21-15 and 21-7 in the 2 games.
  10. Simmons: Im sick of everyone thinking the Packers are God's gift to football.
  11. 1998 was the most enjoyable year for me as a Cubs fan but only because I was 15 and the result of the Cubs game was the only thing that mattered to me. Much worse than even my mid aughts NSBB angst if you can believe that. At one point in my life I could tell you the result of every game that year and how many home runs Sammy hit. Now I can't tell you what the Cubs did last week. Growing up sucks. Even booze isn't as fun.
  12. I want to pick the Bears. It feels like the Bears "contain" Rodgers better than just about every team out there (an by contain I mean 275 yards and 2 TDs). Maybe I'm basing too much off of last week, but you know Capers is going to throw different variations of what the Saints did last weekend, which means heavy blitzing. Until the line, without Carimi and probably Louis, proves that they can protect Jay in that type of situation, I have a hard time picking the Bears to beat a quality team like GB. The one thing I worry about is Jay getting hit early and thinking "here we go again" an go into his shell like he did last week. Granted the line wasn't giving him anytime to do anything but by the end of the game it seemed like he was just resigned to having a guy in his face witting 3 seconds every down. He didn't look like the same decision maker out there. Anyways, I'll go Packers 24-16. I hate myself
  13. Probably to your mom's house if the line isn't too long. Well I had sex with your wife. I engaged in intercourse with your spouse or significant other.
  14. Everyone will say the Bears luck is evening out from last year, but wasn't last year an evening out from all the injuries in 2009?
  15. They can't allow the Big East to remain a BCS conference if they replace Syracuse and Pitt with Air Force and Navy can they? Can you imagine Navy finishing 7-5 (6-2) and playing in the Orange Bowl against Oklahoma?
  16. So he refuses trades to contenders for 2 years saying he's happy here and then now all the sudden he's all about playing for a contender. Hmm ok. Wish we could have gotten something for him.
  17. I think this is new:
  18. Angelo on the offensive line: That's "everything" you could have done?
  19. But more importantly, the Patriots are 2-0!
  20. I believe they wore them in a night game against SF IN 2004 and won. They again wore them in 2005 against the Niners and won. Can't remember who they wore them against in 2006... It was probably either against BUF, SF, or MIA. 2 of those we won. In 2007 we looked awful in losing against Detroit. Don't remember who we wore them against in 08 but in 09 I believe we beat the Browns in them. Last year we didn't wear them. So we are somewhere between 3-3 and 5-1 wearing the Orange jerseys.
  21. Why isn't Bouse State in any of the disussions to join a BCS conference? Do the conferences not want them (because of academics maybe?) or do they not have an interest in becoming the BCS school they've long fought against for respect?
  22. Goodbye Wrigley Field. I hope next year your tenants will give me enough reason to visit you more than 3 times.
  23. Punting with 1:30 left too. I know it's an extreme long shot , especially because it was 4th and 28, but what happens if there is a breakdown in coverage and one of the WRs takes it to the house. Now you are 5 down and still a lot of time on the clock. If you punt it, you are asking the Giants to kneel out the game. Is he trying to make the score as respectable as possible
  24. periods, commas, anything please. Yeah the iPhone really botched that post up for me. My bad.
  25. Huge game especially since the Panthers game doesn't look like it's gonna be the cake walk it once seemed and after that we are going to go to Detroit and play ok front of a fired up team and fan base making their first MNF appearence at home in years. Somehow we need to get through this stretch 3-2 I don't care how we do it. After that we still play the Chargers, Eagles Packers and Lions among Other teams so while the schedule does get slightly easier there are still a ton of elite teams standin in our way. When all is said and done I think the Bears will end up with a top 5 SOS if not number 1
