    Football is not played based on good drives vs bad drives. If you have multiple bad drives you aren't doing your job. If you let the offense get out of a deep hole it's on you. If your offense scores on the first drive and you give it right back it's on you. The defense is supposed to be good. It has not been good. That is bad. What would you consider an average offensive performance? The other team is trying too. A defense shouldnt be relied on to hold every single drive, especially when they are on the field for 2/3rds of the game. They allowed 3 scoring drives. If they held all 3 of those drives to FGs, you might say they had an above average day. But they didn't. They had an avergae day. They allowed 3 scoring drives, but they also allowed 7 different drives to go 3-4 plays and out. They didn't play great, but they didn't play horrible either. They played average. Against a very bad road team in Chicago. That is bad. Quit making excuses for a [expletive] unit. How do you know they are so bad? Because of 2 games? 2 games with like 40 new players on the roster. 2 games without Lynch. I've argued with you enough to know you can keep doing this for months without providing any sort of proof and without conceding even the littlest point so I'm gonna halt on discussing this anymore.

    And thats why you don't pull him off punt returns. I'm an idiot. wish that would have happened about 5 minutes ago. We still have to onside kick it. Earl Bennett with the greatest block ever.

    [expletive] you brandon jacobs for stealing bradshaws TD runs. Go throw your helmet in the stands again. You don't deserve those carries.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    Yay Pete Carroll! Feels nice when you can legitimately pay your players doesnt it?

    0-12 on 3rd down. This is embarassing.
  11. UMFan83
    Cutler has been really inaccurate today. Not quite Todd Collinsesque though.
  12. UMFan83
    What is it with our receivers being so [expletive] incognisant of where the 1st down marker is? Knox just took a 1st away from the Bears wow.

    What the hell is uniformly bad have to do with anything? You dont' win games by having a few defensive stands. The defense has been bad. They'd made a handful of plays, but they've been terrible overall. The offense has been abysmal, but the defense was bad before the offense had a time to hurt them. Because having a good stretch of defensive play is better than having no good stretch of defensive play. This isn't rocket surgery. The defense has been pretty good this year, overall, btw. Just look at the stats. High in yardage allowed, high in yards per play allowed, at the top in takeaways, etc. Not great at stopping 3rd downs of course. That's a really dumb post. A couple good stretches doesn't mean you didn't have a bad day. This is a dumb response. You seem to think either a defense can be great or it can be awful with no in between. But there is. The D has had some bad drives but they've had more good ones. Overall, they've given up 3 scoring drives. That's an average performance, and possibly slightly above considering they had to be on the field for 13 more plays than the opposing defense has. The defense did nothing to lose them the game. They didn't play a great game, but our offense should be able to score more than 21 points most weeks.

    Hester has done an absolutely miserable job as the punt returner today. Like to the point where he needs to be taken off punt returns for the rest of the game because he's absolutely killing the team.

    I'm not sure that any of those 3 teams they are playing are garbage. Especially Miami.
  17. UMFan83
    That was the 3rd longest drive today for the Bears.
  18. UMFan83
    LOL, way to turn away from the 1st down marker Bennett. 0-10 on 3rd down.
  19. UMFan83
    What crap decision making the last 2 plays.
  20. UMFan83
    Don't know. They might not come at all. They aren't Redskins Bills Vikings Vikings Packers Lions Patriots Jets Dolphins Eagles Find 6 wins there.
  21. UMFan83
    Wow what an amazing disparity 3rd down conversions Seattle 7-15 Chicago 0-9 There's your game right there.
  22. UMFan83
    9 out of the 11 Chicago drives have gone 4 plays or less.
  23. UMFan83
    Its the coaching staff and its also the lack of talent. I could not believe that a majority of the "experts" were picking the Bears in a blowout this week. I mean are you serious? This team?
  24. UMFan83
    No, the defense has been spineless from the start today. The offense isn't helping matters, but they've shown no fight at all. I still disagree. The Seahawks have had 3 good drives all game. The first drive of the game, and 2 others when the offense couldnt stay on the field. The other 8 drives of the game have consisteted of 6 drives that were over on 4 plays or less, one moderate drive of 37 yards, and another drive that was 6 plays for 12 yards. That's a very average defensive day.

    How to handle 1st and 1 from the 1: 1. Get 5 better offensive lineman 2. That's all
