Now, that's not all bad, is it ?? Nope. But early season Hawks games don't have the same intensity. Definitely more than the last month of Cubs baseball but still.
So basically you mean that Marmol didn't pitch up to his talent because he was pouting about not being closer, and then when named closer he stepped up his game?
Like I said in last week's thread, Peter King named him his defensive POY one week. When was he cut? And for who? I know that Chris Harris played great last year too. I didn't blame the Bears for cutting him, but his talent really emerged last year. I didn't like that the Bears traded Chris Harris for a 4th rounder (I think it was a 4th rounder) in 2007. We gave up on him too early. McGowan I didn't mind...he was always getting hurt and never made a huge impact. I think we cut him just before the start of this season.
I can't believe Bears Postgame Live isn't going to be on until after the Cubs game. Not even on CSN+ I can't believe I'd rather watch a bears postgame show then the last 3 innings of Cubs baseball for the year.
I can only think of one significant play he has ever made. The catch that set up Gould's FG that defeated Seattle in the playoffs in 2007. Didn't he score the TD last year against ATL that would have won the game but for the Bears [expletive] it up? He also scored the GW TD against Minnesota in 2006 when Tommie forced a fumble in Vikings territory with a couple mins left.
They're twitching the ball. Once again incompetence reigns on the ref crews the NFL puts together. They seriously need the players to point out what's actually happening out there. They seem to miss holds all the time but call iffy offsides and false starts like they are going out of style.
LOL, the 6 possessions this half: Return for TD Start at DET 38, FG Start at CHI 48, Punt Start at DET 19, FG Start at CHI 48, Punt Start at DET 47, .... That's just AWESOME special teams.
Are you serious? Again? Phew, it must not have resulted in a first down. If I was Detroit I would have accepted it and tried for a 1st at this stage of the game. wouldn't it have been 4th and inches? Edit: I forgot the sack
