  1. I agree, have we had a return past the 20 yet this season? I can't remember any, so there is no reason to back us up and possibly get a holding penalty further putting us in a hole.
  2. I keep thinking who is that wide fat guy running down the field as #55 behind the play.
  3. Great stop again, just gotta clean up the RB in the flats. Nice that they only ended up with a FG after getting into the Red Zone. DLine looks like it is starting to get pressure on its own. Ferguson is gonna be a beast.
  4. So we get an defensive TD, a Special Team impact play, a call that could've gone either way in our favor, and an offensive TD in one quarter in prime time? We need to keep this up and not let up.
  5. Nice stop by the Bears.
  6. Great play by Mundy! Woo Hoo!! With Cutler's history on MNF, I was hoping for a convincing win in the 30's-10's range.
  7. Yeah, wow GB looks really bad. We should beat NY handily.
  8. Marshall also tied for league lead in Receiving TDs with 4 (leads WRs). Bennett 4th with 15 receptions. He is on pace for over 100 receptions.
  9. Bostic seems to be playing much better, or at least has cut down on a lot of mistakes. Looking at that video, he is getting off blocks really good. Nice to see our DLine getting pressure, surprised not to see Allen on their yet:
  10. Yeah kinda funny to hear that again, just with a different team and QB.
  11. He nearing the statute of limitations on some of these incidents. This is old news and there were far worse incidents between now and then.
  12. and based on the game last night, he also took the defense from last year with him too. Was that the worst loss for a Lovie Smith coached team?
  13. Damn, Hester still looks great. Congrats on breaking the record, I wish it was in a Bears uniform, but if he does go into the Hall, it will be as a Bear. I wouldn't be surprised if Glennon starts the 2nd half. How many losses before Lovie is fired?
  14. What is crazy is these were both 4-12 teams last year, so it was not like they were picking good teams from the get go. I would get rid of these games altogether except for the Thanksgiving games.
  15. They are bringing up old stuff: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/...andon-marshall/ and trying to get him suspended like Rice for it.
  16. Congrats to him, hopefully just the start of great things to come. This should also give him a good bump in the DROY voting.
  17. They are basically TMZ Sports for TV.

    Football Outsiders

    Possibly, but I would still like to see more of him and maximize his effectiveness.
  19. Football Outsiders ratings (after Week 2): Obviously with a road win against a great team, we got a huge boost from last week. An interesting note is that due to Buffalo's win, they are now considered a stronger team making our Week 1 loss not look so bad. We improved 17.6% and now have a 49.1% to make the playoffs, which ends up being one of the Wild Cards. The NFC playoff teams are now: PHI 70.1%, SEA 69.5%, CAR 66.9%, GB 54.4%, ARZ 56.0%, and CHI 49.1%. SF is 7th at 46.9% and WAS is 8th at 41.7%. For team efficiency ratings, the Bears are now 6th (using their DAVE formula), DEN-1, SEA-2, NE-3, GB-4, CIN-5, CHI-6, NO-7, SF-8, PHI-9, CAR-10. NFC has 7 of the top 10, but AFC has 3 of the top 5, which was surprising. BUF? At 11, which means we lost in OT to #11 and beat #8. That is not bad at all. Our offense is now ranked 10th and defense is ranked 13th, which is awesome. Our ST still needs a lot of help at 27th. We really miss Hester here. We also need to get O'Donnell some protection so he can continue to boom the ball. His kicks were much better in Week 2, but I want some 60+ kicks. Player Ratings (DYAR): Cutler - 5th (Manning, Stafford, Brees, Dalton, Cutler), depending on which stats you use, Cutler is currently in the top 12 of all of them, which is great for us. Forte - Rushing-23rd/Receiving-10th - Obviously frustrated, but he had a dropped pass and is not making his own plays this year. Bennett - 7th - Great to see, he has been a stud and is clearly a top 10 TE. Jeffery - 14th - This to me is fine, especially with him laboring with a hammy. Marshall - 19th - I was surprised to see him this low, but the fumble seems to be what caused him to be this low. OLine - Run Blocking - 22nd, Pass Pro - 11th - Obviously not being able to run the ball, injuries didn't help, but the same off tackle run to start on first down has to go. DLine - Run Blocking - 14th, Pass Pro - 6th - It is great to see the run blocking in the top half of the league and the Pass Pro in the top 10. If we can just stay right there, we are going to be a really tough team to beat. Snap Counts: Mundy - 145 Mills - 141 Bushrod - 141 Long - 141 Cutler - 133 Jennings - 132 Briggs - 132 Bennett - 131 Forte - 129 Marshall - 127 Allen - 125 Mundy has played in 99.2% of the defensive snaps, Jennings and Briggs 98.4%, Allen 92.7%. I was surprised to see Houston at only 79% and Young at 44.4%. I am sure Young's snaps will double (and they need to). No real other surprises to me. I am actually glad to see a Safety in there. Mundy has been very consistent and a pleasant surprise. http://www.footballoutsiders.com
  20. Really odd, especially with the Football Life on him coming out on Friday. ESPN being very shady and bringing this up in light of all the scandals.
  21. So the Viqueens decide to reinstate that low life and now this emerges, another child abused: http://www.tmz.com/2014/09/15/adrian-peter...ta-vikings-nfl/ I can't see the NFL not stepping in now.
  22. I know it is a long shot, but I would love to see him come back next year, even if it was in a backup role. He has truly been a delight to watch and has been one of my favorite Bears ever. He will be missed.

    Briggs

    He is definitely bigger this year, and probably not in a good way.
