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.

ATL 13-2* *-Clinched playoff spot ^-Projected playoff spot Assuming we don't make the playoffs, it looks like we will be picking between 18-20 which is exactly where we picked last year (19). 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.

Yeah, it makes me sick, Cutler is hit like that on almost every throw. Cutler was also hit in the face with no call.

What a garbage call, this is ridiculous.

It still amazes me that we have played this bad, and are only down by 8. It feels like 28.

I knew Cutler was going there, with Rodriguez wide open in the flat.

We better score 7 here.

wtf is with these refs?

Refs are brutal... Conte's PI phantom call in the endzone when it was illegal contact, and now Offensive PI on incidental contact.

Damn this season has went to shit. Just fire Lovie after the game. We will be lucky to win another game.

Yeah, this game turned to crap really quick. Cutler's Interception and then another Rodger's TD.
