  1. Burress is one player ... :roll: He plays for the Giants, no? Face it, he was trash talking and just got punked. He ran his mouth without knowing the first thing about Tillman, and Till beat him. He should have studied the Bears/Vikings game tapes when Till was covering Moss. Unless you've got elite speed, Till can cover you. Not too many 6'2" corners out there. Burress was doing fine on Tillman, but its not like he can catch passes when Manning is getting rushed heavily/throwing 100 feet above his head. It's funny how a little trash talk gets blown up so much when you lose ... and it's not like Burress didn't play well. Sounds like a bunch of Giants were trash talking, not just Burress. I've seen Burress catching some amazing TD passes against other teams. Much more than he did tonight. I'd say Tillman won that matchup. All CBs are at least partially a function of the pressure the DLine can bring.

  3. Wait!! Bears touchdown!! Come Ed, where's the flag!
  4. I don't mind. The Giants have been doing that stupid jump shot all game. Interesting the Giants can do it to their heart's content but the Bears can't. Hmmmmm.... Hey, just tell me which restaurant in New York they took Hoculi to for all these pro-Giants calls. At least I'll get a good dinner out of it next time I visit the Big Apple 8)
  5. Thanks Chris Harris, just took us out of field goal range.
  6. I swear it's Mellencamp that is making our D struggle tonight. PLEASE STOP THIS COMMERCIAL. NOW.
  7. This is shaping up badly for us. The whole thing. Refs, suddenly bad defense, shaky offense... This is going bad.
  8. Well we certainly know who the refs want to win tonight :roll:
  9. LOL. Let's just hand them the ballgame. waddaya think? :shock:
  10. Anyone else feel a huge 4th down play coming here?
  11. Unbelievable. Just let them back in the ballgame. GAH!! :evil:
  12. Come on flames. Embrace your inner Bear fan.
  13. The key is, don't let them come back with a quick score here.
  14. Unless Rex blows this game by throwing many INTs/fumbling many times...I retract my statement and apologize to Rex and Bears fans everywhere. :oops: Are you MAD?!? Don't tempt the fates!!!
  15. He did get it out....barely. I don't suppose Hester gets forward progress there......nope.
  16. We just cannot hold on to the ball. This is RIDICULOUS. That would have been a TD!!
  17. I hear you. I want to like the kid, but he seems --- at this point, anyway --- too much like a "wiz kid" or something, and not enough like a grown up leader. Can a QB find success and not have the "ambience" of a leader? Yeah, I'm sure it's not a prime factor. But I worry about Rex learning and make adjustments, especially since the league is now adjusting to HIM. Still though, I'm watching this game and seeing an OLine that is just getting raped by a bunch of backups. I'm not sure if I can hang all the blame on Rex. There has to be blocking too.
  18. They do seem to whine for flags on plays that obviously don't deserve them. That's a pet peeve of mine.
  19. It appears the Grossman we know and love can only play against prevent defenses. But....good TD. I would just be wary of thinking it's going to spark anything for the 2nd half.
  20. We need a left tackle, gentlemen. Tait blows.
  21. How bout you wait to comment til the games over. Nah I think it's fair. Blitz this line and Grossman and you're gonna put yourself in position to win. Regardless of the outcome of this game. It's fair. We're watching a collapse right now. I see 7-4 in our future after this road trip. There's no question the entire league has a chapter in their playbooks now: "how to beat the 2006 Chicago Bears."
  22. I need $10 million too, but it ain't gonna happen :wink:
  23. Tonight? He's been horrible his entire career. Mike Green was light years ahead of Todd Johnson.
  24. Well, I hate to say it, but I knew this was going to happen. I know it's only the first half, but this one is dangerously close to being over. I'm not sure we can score a single TD, much less put up more than 1 score.
