    Well there is some correlation between weight and strength. He needs to put on some muscle.

    Seriously....

    http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown...59677--nfl.html Really? No matter how good Cutler plays, they will always find something.
  3. They were butchering the game all night with names.

    It almost seems like he is lighter than what is listed because he gets pushed back really easy by the O-Line.

    Well, its Official..

    Yeah, great dominate performance. Seems like we have been waiting almost a year for another game like this. National TV, in Big D, and you really can't ask for a better performance by the team overall.
  6. Great game by the Bears. Besides for the last drive of the first half by Dallas, our Defense was on fire. Can't complain about Cutler and the O-Line today, Cutler with no picks and a 140.1 Passer Rating. Cutler silences critics for one week. Urlacher still not at 100%. Hopefully he will be there after the Bye. 3-1 after 4, I will take it.
  7. and the Pack are 1-2. The difference to me from watching Rodgers vs Cutler is that Jay will try to make a throw under duress where Rodgers takes the sack. At least from looking back at the Seattle game in the first half, a bunch of sacks were after his initial drop back, not necessary immediate pressure like what Jay experiences almost all the time. Jay can't even plant his back foot and he is already under pressure. Check out this video of the 8 sacks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BokBc7mXWEM #1 - 3-man rush, Bulaga gets beat, Irvin with the sack. Rodgers was able to make his initial drop, then got sacked when he stepped up. #2 - Rodgers sacks himself #3 - Rodgers gets his full drop back and when he goes to step up Irvin is there and for some reason Rodgers runs right back into him? #4 - On what appears to be a planned roll-out and screen Rodgers gets destroyed, bad blocking scheme for the play called #5 - Rodgers gets full drop back and the pocket collapses from the inside and he is too late to react (pocket awareness?) #6 - On a play action roll out, it looks like he is going deep, then eats the ball and a sack, all on him for that one. #7 - Gets full drop back and right when he steps up Clemons is in his face - again how does he not see the pressure in his face? #8 - Steps up to avoid pressure, then just takes the sack. Completely on him, seems indecisive and a little shell shocked.
  8. Some interesting numbers: 16-1: Bears record when they lead after the first quarter since 2010. 7-2: Lovie Smith’s record on Monday Night Football with the Bears, averaging 26.4 points per game. Whoever comes out with the win will be 3-1 and sitting in a nice position at the quarter point of the season. For the Bears, they could then have a great shot at going 4-1 into the Bye after playing JAX next week.
  9. What? Going off the last two years with the Bears (2010 and 2011) he was sacked 75 times and threw 23 picks (and 36 TDs). That is more indicative of what we can expect, not one random year on the Broncos from 2008.
  10. I am going to go the other route and say Bears win 20-16 with both teams playing better.
  11. I am just surprised at how bad Dallas' offense has been. League low in scoring. It will just depend on which teams show up. We each had one good game, one bad game, and one mediocre game. It will be interesting to see which team finds their groove. To me that will decide the game. Even if both teams return to form, I believe the Bears have the edge.
  12. It is really easy to point out these things after they happen. Where are all the plays where he escapes when there was no way out, or where he gets the ball to a receiver in the perfect spot? You can't pick your spots to make your point stronger. Did Cutler make mistakes that were his fault, absolutely. Would he have made those mistakes if other players were doing their job? Would he have made those mistakes if there was a better game plan in place?
  13. I just think you find this in just about any QB under constant pressure.
  14. I agree with most of that, however, it is much easier to see something like that on a still photo vs real-time speed.
  15. Jennings could've just batted the ball down and none of this would've happened. Isn't that what they are taught to do?
  16. Waiting for Deadspin article:
  17. To me it seemed like SEA changed their defensive scheme in the 2nd half, which continued to confuse GB. I just get a kick out of Rodgers having 16 sacks in 3 games. He is on pace for 85 sacks, lol.

    Tim Jennings

    Yeah, he leads the league in INTs and is playing almost perfect in the Cover-2. There was an interesting note on NFL Network (Yay, I finally have it with Time Warner), that he has not let up a TD catch since 2010.
  19. I've watched the play a few more times this morning, and it is clearly an INT. However, because the ruling on the field was TD, the ref needed indisputable evidence that it was an INT, and that is hard to determine outright. Jennings had "more" possession than Tate, but again those are judgment calls. I believe if they were real refs, it would've been an INT. Also, looking back at some other calls, GB got a favorable PI call on their drive that lead to their TD, so SEA would've only needed a FG to win on those last 2 drives. So overall, GB got what they deserved. They got one call for them and one against them that lead to TD's. On the last play of the game, it should've been ruled an INT.
  20. That is awesome. I've always hated Sapp, great job being the bigger man Brandon.
  21. Green Bay loses on one of the worst calls you will ever see. It was clearly Offensive Pass interference, then a clear interception, and somehow the refs said it was a TD, and the call stood, wow!!! Green Bay 1-2. Even with 8 sacks against, Rodgers doesn't throw a single pick though.
  22. Rookie DE/DL/OLB Sack Leaders 1. McClellin 1.5 2. Jones 1.0 2. Cox 1.0 4. Irvin 0.5 5. Coples, Ingram, Mercilus, Poe, and Brockers have yet to record a sack. These were all possible picks from the 1st round this year.
  23. I would say another thing to consider is that this is another new system that everyone has to get used to. Sometimes it happens quick while other times it takes a few weeks. I will withhold judgement until the Bye Week. I would just like to see some progress each week. What amazes me is that he is 31st in the league in Passer Rating (58.6) only Tannehill at 58.3 is lower. He is tied for the lead in INTs with 6, and is 29th in Completion%. Those are ridiculously low numbers for a "franchise QB" considering only one game had bad pressure.

    Tim Jennings

    Jennings has been a borderline DPOY Candidate the way he has played in the first 3 games. The entire Defensive unit is playing at a really high level. Our Defensive Line alone has more combined sacks than any other team's total.
  25. However, they are going to be just good enough to keep everyone's job, say 9-7.
