Dammit

Bostic has real potential

Hit RG3 harder, he's exposing himself. Make him pay.

Funny how that happens to us every year, but never ever happens to GB

We're done.

Good Lord just kill me

I've seen at least 3 blatant uncalled holds

Fair catch with at least 15 yards of running room.

All momentum gone.

This doesn't look like our day

Crap

Hit him harder next time

Come on Briggs you're better than that

He's just going to run us to death

Hey, the Bears showed up.

Perfect

He's been looking better already, the Bears just get the next step in his recovery. He had the worst passing game of his career last week And a good running game

He's been looking better already, the Bears just get the next step in his recovery.

Is he even still in consideration?

They're still picking up points. It's not like they're pulling up the rear in the conference. I'm not worried yet. Also, I'd love to put in an amazing season of total dominance again this year, but I don't think that's likely. And they don't need to. Once they're in the playoffs, they will have the advantage of more post-season experience over most of their opponents. That'll make up for a slightly lower seed.

I was going to mention special teams, and you beat me to it. The Skins are dead last in ST DVOA. They've been pulling up the rear all season, and last week didn't help them at all. If there was ever a game for Hester to come through with a couple nice returns, this is it. I'm hoping the Bears pull out a close one Sunday. We haven't matched up against Washington very well, but all those teams were completely different than this one. In 2013, both WAS and CHI have better offenses than defenses. But the Bears are ranking better on both sides of the ball. The Bears do look worse on ST this year, making me wish Toub would have stuck around. But it's nothing like that 32nd ranked Redskins unit. That said, I believe Washington is looking a little better now than they did earlier in the year, and I can't say that about the Bears. And, they are at home after all. I'm expecting both teams to move the ball effectively against these defenses, although I'm not convinced that either team will score a lot of TDs. That means somewhere along the line, drives will either stall, or a TO will happen, or a FG instead of a TD. Here's hoping it's the Skins on that side of the equation more than the Bears. The Bears definitely have the edge in TO ratio this year, with the Skins slightly in the negative (-2) and the Bears near the top at +7. That may continue Sunday -- although my sense is that the Skins won't be so loose with the football that the Bears can just beat them solely on crushing turovers. I'm going to go 27-24 Bears. Possibly an OT win. Special teams could be the difference here -- if Hester can channel his old self on a few chances, it could flip the score and allow the Bears to get out of town and into the bye with a win. And if he can't, there won't be an easier team to do it against for the rest of the season.

That interception by the goal line that turned into a fumble that turned into a touchdown ROFL I remember the Bears beating the Packers twice -- once with Orton and once with Grossman -- and feeling like this team was finally on the right track. And it was, for a little while :)

I remember it like it was yesterday.

Hope it turns out. I really do. We need something like a bounce-back Rizzo season around here.
