Bears 20 - Packers 17

A. Brown!








Hub Arkush, former Dick Jauron lackey seems to be on a campaign to run Brian Urlacher out of town, saying Brian has no joy in playing and would be better off in a new city.
I don't see that at all. I see a guy jumping and smiling and celebrating after every big defensive play.
Hopefully, Brian will have a resurgence similar to Ray Lewis, and I hope he stays in Chicago.






Danieal Manning and Devin Hester should be on the field together for all punt and kick returns. With Manning's emergence, if kickers start to avoid him, they'd be forced to kick to Hester. And look here, Kellen Davis is involved in a play, and doesn't draw a flag.











Robbie and Brad love each other.

Bears 27 - Saints 24

Reports from Halas Hall continue that Devin Hester is progressing as a receiver. As far as I can tell, this is the Bears best WR.
His name is P.I. and he is Orton's most consistent downfield threat.











As I sit and wait to see if the Falcons can keep the Bears in the playoff picture by beating the Vikings, I can really only think of this 
Go Bears, I mean Falcons.

Bears 23 - Jaguars 10

The Bears are really good at beating bad teams.

If you told me at the beginning of the season that Vasher and Tillman would be starting for most of the season, Mike Brown would stay healthy, A. Brown would be back as a starter and Lance Briggs would be signed long term, I would have thought we'd once again have a dominant defense.







Most of the players are the same from the Superbowl run. Who's missing? Ron Rivera at Defensive Coordinator.

And Chris Harris.










Robbie Gould and Brad Maynard are like super heroes.


Maynard is at the bottom of the league's average for distance, but he leads the league in pinning teams inside the 20, which is the best possible thing a punter can do on the field.
Accuracy at short distances pretty much describes Robbie as well.

It's hard to tell if the Bears are even a good team this year. They've shown flashes of goodness, but continue to come up short in "most important games of the season".

Tonight is yet another "must win" against the Saints.

Vikings 34 - Bears 14

Lovie is still carrying on about the “6 game season”. We are now 2 games into the 6 game season – or 4 halves into a 12 game half season or a 3rd through our six game season...







Lovie, you've turned 200 special teams yards per game and excellent field position into the occasional 66 yard TD run. 







Horse Collar!









Compare Kyle's numbers to Rex's '06 numbers after 12 games - or half way through the 6 game season. Kyle is sucking. 













A.P. and Rasheed and Hester had how many drops?








Good news is the Bears have stopped the goal line Jason Mckie FB dive. Bad news is Ron Ron is still trying it with recently signed off the practice squad Jason whatever his name is.









Holy flop Gus Frerotte. I can’t stand to watch a single game of my beloved soccer because of the flopping. 20 times a game someone cracks a fibula? And now I must suffer through this in football?! 

It doesn’t matter now if the Bears make it into the playoffs. It won’t be because they’re good, just that the Vikings ended up sucking worse. In the 2nd “most important game of the season” the Bears once again were crushed by a division foe.

A look at our 6 wins so far:

· A hobbled Peyton Manning’s Colts
· A Brian Westbrook-less Eagles
· 2 wins against the NFL-worst Lions
· Bottom feeder Rams

The only quality win the Bears had was against the Vikings, who answered the challenge in the rematch.
