  1. Odds for making the playoffs: 4-0 84% 3-1 64% 2-2 35%
  2. I actually liked how GB stopped AP, especially in the 2nd half. Otherwise, I thought GB played like crap, and even like that, they only lost by 7.
  3. Detroit had one of the better coverage units before the game.
  4. I am loving me some Jay Cutler. 3 consecutive games with a 100+ QB Rating, and 7 TDs and 1 INT in his last 3 games.
  5. I don't want to see Minny go to 4-0. Very few teams miss the playoffs after starting 4-0.
  6. I was kidding (blue = Detroit colors).
  7. Wear blue so I can see you.
  8. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/shutdown_...?urn=nfl,193266 I think it is a little too early for a comparison like this. Especially considering that Forte's rookie year was better than any year by either of the two. I also believe that he is playing injured, our O-Line has been bad in support of the run, teams have stacked the box, and we've played 2x 3-4 defenses.
  9. I would love for a fast start. We have yet to score in the 1st quarter and have been outscored 17-0 so far. Lets also have some nice sustained drives. I am sick of the quick 3 and out to start the game or half. Bears 31-17.
  10. It seems like teams are still forcing the Bears to pass and stacking extra guys in the box. We have also been very predictable on our runs.
  11. I was just posting anything related to the Bears-Lions game, and an injury to their starting RB seemed to be post-worthy. I was hoping for anyone to be out. I think the Bears will win the game pretty easily. I just want to see a big early lead so we can get the ground game going. I really like what the Cowboys did last night. They had a sort of Play-action, delayed draw, trap that was really successful.
  12. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/...s-week-to-week/ This would be a nice break for the Bears.
  13. Nice work. Other Projections: Olsen: 48-496, 6 TDs Forte: 800 Rushing Yards, 0 TDs, Rec - 59-389, 0 TDs Here is a fun one, take only Cutler's last two games and project that for a full season (if you consider GB as : 3864 Yards, 40 TDs, 8 INTs, 7.4 YA, 73.8% Comp Pct.
  14. I am very happy with a 2-1 record after those 3 games. We could've easily been 0-3 or 3-0. However, we are only 1 play from being 3-0, so I will gladly take a 2-1 record at this point. Next week is a big game, we can't play down to the Lions. 3-1 into the Bye is a must.
  15. Even more than the QB Rating, I am loving the Completion Pct. 71% and 78% the last two games. Also, just think of how much higher it would be without drops. Even after that brutal first game, he has a Comp Pct almost 10 pts higher than Orton who has a better QB Rating. We would probably be 0-3 with Orton at the helm with the lack of running game.
  16. Not really. We won the Time of Possession battle, had the same amount of turnovers, and didn't allow a Red Zone TD. The game could have went either way, but a win is a win. I am just sick of the Cover 2.
  17. In the NFL, a win is a win. Some good, some bad, some ugly, but we won in Seattle for the first time since 1976. Cutler with a 126.4 QB Rating.
  18. We don't need to stop them until they are in FG range.
  19. This will be our first win in Seattle since 1976.

    Bears Answer Back

    I love Briggs, and I think this is his chance to shine as the leader on defense. He is also able to back up anything he says with his play.
  21. I think we will win and have some long sustained drives with about 400 yards of total offense. Bears 27-13 Also, the 2nd TE will get a few grabs.
  22. At the time, the Moose signing was actually pretty good. He was arguably the best WR in 2004, leading the league in yards and TDs and made the Pro Bowl on a losing team. The first two years on the Bears we had a record of 24-8 with him. In 2004, our leading receiver was Terrell (Moose had more yards in 2004 than our top 2 receivers combined). The problem was we bought high. He was never going to achieve that again, and if you look at his stats, he only has 3 true standout years. He either had over 90 catches or less than 70 catches, no in between. With the Bears, and ever since 2004, he has been the latter. Also, we got him at age 32. That is about where you see some drop-off in production. So if you compare him relatively to what we had in 2004, he was a huge upgrade. We got to the SB with him, so I wouldn't say it was a complete bust. The QB carousel must also affect WRs. As much as we've had QB's since McMahon, you can say the same thing about receivers. WRs since 2000 no longer on team: Lloyd, Booker, Berrian, Moose, Bradley, Gage, Wade, Terrell, White, Robinson, Kennison Also, think about the continuity. How many of these guys played on the team multiple years with the same QB? Booker?
  23. Jay Cutler and Johnny Knox for Kyle Orton, Robert Ayers - LB, Richard Quinn -TE, and next year's first rounder. Denver also traded away their own first rounder next year for Alphonso Smith-CB. So their only first rounder is ours next year. Stats-wise: Ayers and Quinn have no stats, but seem to be on the roster. Smith has 6 tackles. So right now it is Cutler and Knox vs Orton.
