  1. Warner's coming back in...the Cardinals are playing for reals again.
  2. I'd like to mention that I'm starting both Cutler and Olsen in fantasy today. It's karma because Portis went down in the first quarter with 4 rushing yards.
  3. It's an interesting question. I think they are more or less middle of the road in terms of national exposure, propped up only because of their history (pre-1970) and market (3rd largest in the country) and on a smaller scale, the 85 team (which probably left a longer lasting image than any title team in the SB era). But in terms of day to day exposure, the Bears have been under marketed in their city and nationally for some time (who can remember seeing a Bears commercial on TV before last season?), and have not been able to put together a 3+ year span of competitive teams which has caused them to dip behind teams like Dallas, Philly, Washington, Green Bay, New England, Pittsburgh in terms of franchise prestige. Assuming they don't make the playoffs this year, they will have made the playoffs just 4 times in the last 18 years (94, 01, 05, 06). And in many of the other years they haven't come close to contending (92, 93, 96, 97, 98, 99, 00, 02, 03, 04, 07, likely 09). So it's hard to stay on the first half hour of sportscenter when you are a boring team that loses a lot.
  4. Dude come on he said he was just messing around with you.
  5. clearly pass interference
  6. Haha...I predicted 3-1 in the next 4 games before the Atlanta game...and we went 1-3 and got completely blown out in 2 of them.
  7. Turner loves calling those WR screens lately huh?
  8. haha this is awesome This game is officially worse than the Cincinnati game I think.
  9. Meh, I don't care about that. That pick is gone with the wind. And with 4 wins already and games left against Detroit and St. Louis, we're very likely not gonna have a pick in the top 10 anyways.
  10. Also, start getting touchdowns on every offensive possession, and start getting turnovers on every defensive possession. It's that easy guys.
  11. Again, if you buy my premise that defensive stands against teams using their backup players to finish up blowouts and teams with 32nd ranked offenses, the Bears have given up points in their last 13 meaningful defensive series, with 10 TDs and 3 FGs
  12. Didn't see the interview or whatever, what did he do/say? I didn't see it, I just heard the sideline reporter talk about it. He just said basically that it was 'ridiculous' that he would get ejected for something like that and was extremely disapointed that it happened. So wait, he was upset that the ref ejected him for punching another guy in the face? Or it's ridiculous that Harris would do something like that? Sorry should have clarified, ridiculous that Harris would do something like that
  13. why get rid of tommie harris. the times they've gotten crushed he hasn't been on the field. they look like a different team without him out there. I really don't think it is that simple but whatever. why do we need to get rid of him when we look better with him in there is all i'm saying. There's obviously more going on behind the scenes then we know about since he's basically been suspended for a game in each of the last 2 years, and now this ejection and likely suspension due to a brutal cheap shot right next to a ref. This relationship between him and the team is dying quickly.
  14. Is that 8-8 on 3rd downs?
  15. Didn't see the interview or whatever, what did he do/say? I didn't see it, I just heard the sideline reporter talk about it. He just said basically that it was 'ridiculous' that he would get ejected for something like that and was extremely disapointed that it happened.
  16. Looks like a 69 yard TD drive. 38-7
  17. Time to punt because our team is only down by 24 and our defense has been completely unable to stop the Cardinals offense.
  18. Haha, Lovie seems PISSED about Tommie Harris' stupid ejection.
  19. I can't believe I was such a supporter of Lovie before this season. The first sign of adversity on this team and it goes belly up. The main inexcusable thing is that this is the second game where we literally are unable to stop the other team's offense....not even once so far. Even crappy teams like the Browns and Bucs stop the other team's offense. Lovie coaches a team that gives up a TD 90% of the time the opponent touches the ball against any halfway decent offense. The fact that you can't even make a single adjustment to slow down their offense even slightly, tells me all we need to see with Lovie. There are too many good coaches available in the offseason to not fire Lovie. But that's not typically how this dinosaur organization operates.
  20. The Best thing about getting absolutely humiliated this week is, we will all be sick of the Bears....and they play again on Thursday!!! The NFL network has to be sick over this performance, I bet the ratings are much less than you'd expect for a Bears game on the Network
  21. I agree...this should be the defense coming out in the 2nd half.. LE: Anderson DT: Idonije NT: Harrison RE: Adams OLB: Roach MLB: Hillenmeyer (not really much u can do with the LBs) OLB: Briggs SS: Payne FS: Bullocks CB: Tillman (if healthy) CB: Graham
  22. testing my new sig..
  23. So it will be exactly the same as the Cincinnati game except we scored a TD instead of a FG. 31-3 or 31-7
  24. Good thing we attempted the FG. Unbelievable
  25. What [expletive] good is an [expletive] FG here? Down 18 or down 21...does it [expletive] matter? Lovie just doesn't want to get as embarrassed as badly so 3 more points on the board. Idiot.
