I'll give credit to the o-line. On consecutive 3rd down plays the line held up long enough to give Cutler time to find someone open. He had a lot of time to throw both times.
For instance those that compile statistics and claim the Bears are middle of the road in pass D are all football noobs. Is this true? I just looked up the numbers and saw that before today the longest pass the Bears allowed all year was 30 yards? Also they have only allowed 4 passing TDs all year? That can't be right? Who cares? Football isn't a game decided by most 30yd throws Sorry the 2nd paragraph wasnt meant to address your comment it was something I saw that shocked me because the next closest "biggest passing play allowed" is 41 yards

I have to say Cutler is having a pretty good game today. He's made a couple of pretty questionable throws, which is expected with Cutler. But he's done fantastic, as theyve pointed out, at hitting the hot read. The defense is constantly letting the pressure get to Cutler but he's made it hardly a factor in terms of getting sacked or even hit.
We actually were #1. But yeah, it's been really bad this game. Wow for real? Well either way they've been giving up long 3rd down conversions all game so a weird thing to say, and fitting that they gained 47 yards on a 3rd and long immediately after making that point.
The pass rush has been awful today. Fitzpatrick has all the time in the world. That's as big of an issue as the secondary. And somehow we still lead. The announcers went Gus Johnson with the blocked XP.
Did they just say the Bears 3rd down defense was outstanding? I'm pretty sure they are middle of the road at best. And the Bills have been converting 3rd and longs all game. What a dumb comment.
He corrected that to say 10 points in the last 3 games. in the first 2 games of the season alone I know we got 6 vs. Detroit, at least 7 but I think more against Dallas, 13 against GB, 3 against NYG, 6 against Carolina, 7 against Seattle.
