  1. Yay Pete Carroll! Feels nice when you can legitimately pay your players doesnt it?
  2. 0-12 on 3rd down. This is embarassing.
  3. Cutler has been really inaccurate today. Not quite Todd Collinsesque though.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. I'm not sure that any of those 3 teams they are playing are garbage. Especially Miami.
  8. That was the 3rd longest drive today for the Bears.
  9. LOL, way to turn away from the 1st down marker Bennett. 0-10 on 3rd down.
  10. What crap decision making the last 2 plays.
  11. 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.
  12. Wow what an amazing disparity 3rd down conversions Seattle 7-15 Chicago 0-9 There's your game right there.
  13. 9 out of the 11 Chicago drives have gone 4 plays or less.
  14. 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?
  15. 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.
  16. How to handle 1st and 1 from the 1: 1. Get 5 better offensive lineman 2. That's all
  17. The defense is fine for the most part. It's hard to keep playing well when the offenses longest drive is like 6 plays, and then after that like 4 plays. No, the defense was giving up plays left and right from the start today. They aren't good. They are occasionally opportunistic, but not good. They gave up a TD on the first drive. That's allowed to happen. Next 3 drives were 4 plays 10 yards, 3 plays, -1 yards, 3 plays 8 yards. Then the Bears started going 3 and out on every play and the D tired. I'm not saying the D played great today, but they haven't been at all the problem. The defense has been weak from the start of today's game. There's no ifs ands or buts. It's been bad for 3 years, and it's bad right now. You saying 'no ifs ands and buts' doesn't prove anything or make your statement true. Our defense was fine, until our offense started going 3 and out every drive. The Bears have been on defense for just about 2/3rds of the game so far.
  18. Can you imagine when we're gonna be in a position where we have to win 3 of 4 against the Vikings, Jets, Patriots and Packers to make the playoffs.
  19. Seattle is leading the TOP 27:00 to 18:00

  21. Seriously....here are the number of plays of every Bears drive today: 4 3 3 3 7 4 7 2 4 4 Only 2 drives today that were more than 4 plays.
  22. The defense is fine for the most part. It's hard to keep playing well when the offenses longest drive is like 6 plays, and then after that like 4 plays.
  23. So much for tying the game. I'm gonna start crediting sacks to Angelo. Another sack on Angelo
  24. Have we ever successfully stopped the slant pass? If I was an opposing offensive coordinator, I'd run the slant once every 2-3 plays.
