Classic. The Bears draft a pass-catching TE with nearly no blocking skills, and whenever he's in the game he has to stay in and help the OL because they suck so bad. Meanwhile, the Bears have a pass-blocking TE with nearly no receiving skills (hint: Spaeth), and he's sent out on pass routes (albeit, not many, but more than Rodriguez). The better solution would have been to just draft OL and send out Davis or Spaeth on the minimal passing routes.

Well, it's pretty clear they weren't going to give Williams a fair shot at LT. So, actually they would have only had 1 first rounder there, and a 7th round guy who sucked the previous season, and every season he's been lucky enough to play in the NFL.

Could it be that the dude was a LT for four years in college and the coaching staff selected him to be a RT? I mean, he is virtually a rookie this year because of last year's injury, and he's being asked to play the right side instead of the left, which really doesn't make sense since he should have been selected as a replacement for that scrub Webb. He's a first round talent from an OL factory. I have faith he'll turn it around.

I don't live too far away, and almost went, but the prices got too ridiculous too fast. I'm not paying $125-$150 for an upper-level seat, and then adding parking/food/gas into the mix.

I wouldn't have been upset, because that would have meant Carimi a guaranteed move to LT, and it would have signalled the end to the failed Webb experiment.

Me too. But I think you can do something that's in the middle of all that. You can pull the starting offensive players, the skill players anyway, and still continue to call the same aggressive game plan on offense AND defense. But that's not Lovie's style. Instead he went vanilla on O and D, got nearly nothing from the O, allowed the Titans to score a cheap TD, and while the game was dominating - so much so people at work feel compelled to come talk to me about it - there is still a little bit from many of us that wants more than the beating; we want the kill.

I haven't been to a game this year, and that makes it nearly impossible to see multiple receivers, but is Cutler simply targeting Marshall and nobody else? Or are the other receivers just never open?

It's not an insult if it's true. If you honestly thought Cutler held the ball too long on that play - which is exactly what your post said and implied - then it's either an ignorant or uninformed post. Nobody watching that objectively can think Cutler held the ball too long. He dropped back and the defender was already through the hole because of the missed assignment. If you meant it as a general statement, then maybe it's just convenient that you worded it poorly and just so happened to post it immediately after Cutler got sacked.

Oh good Lord, you have to be shitting me. That was an immediate slip through the OL by the defender. Cutler did not hold on to that too long. You're being absolutely ridiculous, or have your game on slow-motion. Also, for the record, that sack looks more on Rachal than Webb. Webb was supposed to go outside, but Rachal looks like he made the wrong read.

Webb. Good thing the Bears don't need offense right now.

HAHAHAHAHA! WHO NEEDS OFFENSE!!!???

My best friend is a Niners fan. He's STILL bitter about it. Just because I sympathize doesn't mean I want to empathize.

This game is better than some sex I've had. LOL

WHOOOOOOO NEEEEEEDS ANNNN OOOOOOFFFFEEEENSE?!!!!!

I knew I should have coughed up a couple hundred dollars and went to this game.

Tillman? That was UBERLACHER!

WHO NEEDS FREAKING OFFENSE!!!!!!

EXACTLY what I was thinking. It's 14-2, time for Lovie to start calling the deep cover-2 and the prevent. Lo and behold, easy pass over the middle.

That was a great pull by Rachal, and it was nice to see Webb at the second level. I'm not really impressed by the rugby scrum push; at that point the surge was inevitable because the D was standing and the O was pushing forward.

WHO NEEDS OFFENSE!? hahahaha

Webb.

WHO NEEDS OFFENSE!?

HAHAHA! Tillman. Love that dude.

I don't associate Rice with the Raiders or Montana with the Chiefs, but I get a sick feeling in my stomach when thinking about both situations. And they didn't even play for the Bears. It would be soul-crushing for me to see Urlacher in another jersey.

HAHA! Nice.
