  1. Childress can't sit him when he is no longer the coach. Frazier might though.

    Worst Players

    Webb is a 7th round pick starting, and besides for some penalties, he has played much better than a 7th rounder.
  3. I don't know, our defense is a top 5 unit: QB Rating against us: 66.7, yards allowed per attempt: 5.96, and touchdown passes against: 6. #2 Pts Allowed, #2 Rushing yards against, #4 Total Yards allowed, #2 INT, #1 FFum, #5 First Downs against, #4 3rd Down Conversions Miami is also -5 in Turnovers. That plays right into the Bears strengths.

    End of Third Quarter

    Yeah it was a bad pick, and inexcusable in the red zone. Like you said, throw it away and go for 3. Cutler has to limit these type of mistakes if the Bears want to make the playoffs.

    Aw poor baby

    He is going to hang it up before he gets suspended, thats for sure.
  6. If Cutler throws 3 INTs, the Bears lose by 10. I hope he doesn't throw more than 1.
  7. Nope, but a few have led different teams to Super Bowls, just none have won it with both teams. Parcells, Holmgren, Vermeil, Shula, and Reeves have all led multiple teams to a Super Bowl. Also, I believe I saw Gruden mentioned somewhere.
  8. Jets vs Cleveland in 2nd? Man that would've sucked. Thanks for voting. BearsFan1974, I am assuming you are at Incirlik? I flew thru there in August.
  9. I wouldn't say the Packers are up and down. All their losses have been by 3 pts. They had a chance to win every game. I figure NYG, GB, ATL, NO and a random 8-8 team from the West as the first 5 playoff teams. The Bears are vying for that last playoff spot with PHI, TB, SEA, and WAS. The problem is we have already lost to SEA and WAS. So we really need to string a couple game together here in the next few weeks. For how good our defense has been, only 3 teams have less sacks. We need more QB pressure.
  10. Ugh, yes please vote. Right now NO @ CAR is leading.
  11. I am waiting for Cutler to go Ryan Leaf on someone.

    Bye Week

    Just make a drinking game out of it. Have cards for different events and when that happens, you drink, or drink whenever any of the following occur: Cutler throws an INT Cutler gets sacked Bears don't convert a 3rd Down Bears don't score from opponent's 1-yard line Forte rushes for no gain Bears fumble Bears Receiver drops a pass Lovie challenges play that is not overturned Lovie doesn't challenge a blatantly obvious call
  13. Yeah, but everyone is playing pretty sloppy this year. You could say that about a bunch of teams. New Orleans is 3-2 coming off the SB and the combined record of the teams they beat is 1-13. The Bucs, Redskins, Jaguars, Texans, and Cardinals all have winning records but have negative point differentials. Arizona is -50 and is still 3-2. The ViQueens and Boys are both 1-3 and both were NFC favorites before the season.

    Adam Shefter......

    Favre would only do that so his cock-shots don't end it for him. If they think he will be suspended, I assume he would sit out prior to that so his record wouldn't end due to a suspension.
  15. BrianBear predicted the exact score last week, so you know he will at least be in the ballpark with this week's prediction. I say Bears 31-13.
  16. When is a rental considered 3 to 5 years? You are basically getting that length out of a rookie contract on an unknown in the draft, yet Mankins has a proven track record. You can't underestimate the value of a great O-Line. The Bears should be willing to do almost anything to protect their Franchise QB.
  17. 2006 47 Punt Returns - 3 TD, 0 Receptions - 0 TD 2007 42 Punt Returns - 4 TD, 20 Receptions - 2 TD 2008 32 Punt Returns - 0 TD, 51 Receptions - 3 TD 2009 24 Punt Returns - 0 TD, 57 Receptions - 3 TD 2010 9 Punt Returns - 1 TD, 6 Receptions - 1 TD He is much more explosive and valuable to the team as a returner first and WR second. In 2008 and 2009 when he was a WR first, all those extra touches resulted in less scores than when he was a PR first. This year is the same, more punt returns than receptions, and 2 TDs in 3 games total. Also, I am not even taking into account KRs. I don't know if this is something they are doing with him but vs GB it looked like he was going to break it every time he got the ball. I foresee good field position for us in the future again.
  18. The Giants defense is allowing 28 pts a game (only Bills and 49ers have allowed more) and will be without Kiwanuka who has been huge for them. I would think we would at least score that much and can get our running game going. Eli has been sacked 7 times with 6 INTs in 3 games. I don't see them scoring more than what Dallas did vs us (20). Peppers get a couple of sacks, Bears lead throughout and cruise 31-17.
  19. I just don't like the formations. We should spread them out and even go into the shotgun to open up the draw. How about some misdirection or fake the handoff up the middle and have the other back sweep to the outside, or even a bootleg. Something other than Forte running into the backs of our O-Line would be great.
  20. The Bears had 463 yards, which is the most since 1997? The 168 yards allowed was the best since 2006? So I believe the difference of 295 yards was the most in decades. Yards don't equate to wins, but it is promising to see on both sides of the ball. The defense also held the Lions to 10 drives with 10 yards or less. That is silly. Again yards don't mean much, but at least we showed we can move the ball. People say it is only Detroit, but they are much improved and have some good players at many skill positions. Any time you hold Johnson to 4 catches and 45 yards, you are doing pretty good. We also did something that we rarely do, win a game where we lose the TO battle. Detroit was lucky to be even in the game in the 4th. Based on some of the errors we could have been up by 20+ heading into the final frame. So if we can clean up the drops, limit the TOs and penalties, I think we have a chance to surprise some people. After the train wreck of a preseason I was actually pleasantly surprised overall. Also, a bunch of teams on our schedule did not look too good, which is nice to see. Next up Dallas, who scored 7 pts against the Redskins.
  21. 110 yards allowed and we lose? Unfreakin real.
  22. I am just waiting for the 1-hour ESPN special "The Announcement" where he says his ankle has healed and that he is coming back for 1 more season. This almost seems like a huge marketing ploy, otherwise, he would just come out and tell everyone himself.
  23. Minnesota is a completely different team without Favre. This is great news for the Bears. They go from Super Bowl contenders to a borderline playoff team. I figure they are now a 9-10 win team at the most. Rice was a completely different WR with Favre at QB. I can't see Jackson making those same throws. Also, morale had to take a huge hit as well.
