I expect more in weeks to come. He clearly needs to go. The Super Bowl run was a fluke season with some crazy games going our way.

Where are you getting your numbers from? Yahoo Sports says: NE - 22 CHI - 20 DEN - 18 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/stats/byteam?g...&timeframe= Either way, it is not "Lovie Smith's" defense. It has been Tillman+ whoever else gets a turnover.

I agree, I don't know if I want a 10-6 Wild Card loss team who keeps the same staff or an 8-8 team that cleans house. I am leaning towards 8-8.

Bears are expected to re-sign RB Kahlil Bell today, according to league source. https://twitter.com/seankjensen/statuses/281041940387082242

He is an idiot, you just lost 2 straight games at home to division opponents, and a non-divisional game away is now important. We are technically out of the playoffs right now and even 10-6 does not guarantee us anything. The only thing saving our ass right now is we play 2 bad teams (ARZ and DET) where the other 8-6 teams have a tougher road. MIN plays HOU and GB (these games are dependent on how many players the playoff teams sit) WAS plays PHI and DAL (one team of WAS and DAL can finish no better than 9-7) DAL plays NO and WAS (one team of WAS and DAL can finish no better than 9-7) NYG plays BAL and PHI (Baltimore already clinched playoff spot)

Urlacher is the not the brightest tool in the shed. He probably thinks the Packer fans are booing when Kuhn gets a carry too. "Oooo, look at the bright light" However, he is entitled to his opinion, and I would assume no athlete wants to be booed. I also think he is implying something when he says the media and fans don't know what they are talking about. Like he knows something about the coaching situation that we don't know. Maybe the coaches have already been told they are not coming back?

I agree, there is no way any rusher should've even sniffed his panties on that play. It actually looked like the OLine was just casually playing out the game, not really attempting to block. I believe 2 of the OLine were blocking air, and the air did a swim move and helped with the sack. I can't imagine how practice looks when tackling dummies and sleds are getting past the OLine.

A win keeps slim playoff hopes alive, a loss basically eliminates the team from the post season.

Last year was bad enough, we could've picked 14, but that one win dropped us to 19. At least this year we are pretty much locked into 17-21. I am just torn over a 10-6 playoff Wild Card only to lose the first game and have the staff return next year or an 8-8 season where the staff is fired.

My only concerns would be the college coaches, because most don't make the transition very well.

Just as long as we don't announce the coach before he signs.

Yeah, 9-7 would be even worse because that would not be enough to get into the playoffs, and probably bump us down to the last non-playoff slot at 20.

I hate this position, just good enough not to get elite talent, and just bad enough to not make the playoffs.

Like I said, they all were PI, but the calls in general for the day were going against the Bears. If they are going to call those, they have to call the one on the last play to Jeffery, and they didn't. The calls were not even. They also missed a blatant hands to the face when Raji hit Cutler, then Peppers gets a clean hit on Rodgers and gets 15 yards. The entire game was called like that.

That makes me sick. He should be fired just for that fact alone.

Jason, I agree that all calls were PI, but the defender is hand checking the entire time as well, where is the illegal contact? Also, on the first one in the endzone, there was a lot of acting on the part of the DB, unless Alshon has super human strength. He still pushed off, but the flop made it look much worse. On the one down the sideline in the endzone, how does the side judge not call it from 5 feet away, but the back judge does from 25 yards away? Even Aikman was questioning the calls, and the non-calls.

Yeah, they both should be fired tonight.

I have to agree, Rodgers was pressured as much as Cutler and still found a way to drop in some nice passes. Granted, he has a much deeper Receiving Corps, but Cutler didn't make any plays on his own. Cutler is a system QB, he is definitely average at best when he is not in a good system. Look at Cutler this year. He has 1x 300 yard game, and 6 games with less than 200 yards passing (not including HOU when he was knocked out).

He was double teamed almost the entire game and we no one else could get open, pitiful.

There is no way, two straight years starting a combined 14-4 and ending 2-10?

Team is probably the most predictable team in the NFL. We will be lucky to win another game. Yay, we get an 8-8 season, no playoffs, and the 16th pick, woo hoo!!!

Assuming we don't make the playoffs this year, we will have only one playoff appearance in the last 6 years. No coach should be still coaching with that type of track record. He should be fired today after this piss poor showing, and 2nd straight loss at home vs Division opponents.

Exactly, I was surprised we were in that group.

True, that is the only bright side, but these refs have been crap today, there is no way you can miss the defender with a handful of jersey.

Wow, these refs are complete Bullshit.
