QUOTE (chw42 @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 12:20 AM) But the truth of the matter is, the final score was pretty close and the Bears did have a chance to at least tie the game up. The Packers did dominate the majority of the game. But it was not a easy win. Yes you are right, the final score was close and the Bears did have a chance to at least tie the game.. but thats what happens when you have a third string QB out there. No, the Packers did not dominate it, but they were in control of the game for the majority of it.. not dominated, in control..

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 12:15 AM) That's because everybody in the country pretty much took up your point of view - how the Bears were fortunate to face backup QBs. Well guess what, other playoff teams did too and some of them LOST. The Packers lost to Drew Stanton, the Bears didn't. The Eagles lost to Joe Webb, the Bears didn't. If you get the whole "oh look how many backups they faced" out of your head, you'll see that the Bears were one of the top 4 teams in the NFC this season and that they did have a chance to win yesterday. Hell, it took Green Bay a pick six, an injured Cutler, and one miracle trip of Brian Urlacher by Rodgers for them to pull that game out yesterday. And the Packers are the best team in the NFC. I was just citing some instances of the Bears being fortunate, im not saying they only made the playoffs by beating depleted teams.. And lets not try to make it sound like the Bears gave away the game against the Packers, it took a furious comeback by Hanie to make it look close, the Packers were well in control of that game for the majority of it..

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 12:12 AM) But your argument wasn't that the Packers were the better team. Your argument was that no one thought the Bears were a "good" team, outside of Bears fans. That's a pretty huge distinction, don't you think? This isn't just about the Packers game, no one has thought the Bears were a good team all year.. all season long, people just weren't buying on them being one of the better teams in the league

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 12:09 AM) One of those backup QBs also beat the Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. Yes, the Bears were fortunate, but they also executed when they should have. Thats fine, but the point is that no one really had any faith in the Bears, except Bears fans.. I don't see how that isn't agreed upon here.. no one gave them any credit pretty much all year long

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 12:06 AM) Who else did they beat, since you talk about the bad teams, who were the other wins? Hint: They beat 2 of the other 3 final four teams. lol I don't need any hints, the Bears were a decent team this year.. get over it

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 25, 2011 -> 12:03 AM) I do not agree with that. For one, the oddsmakers didn't agree with that either. I can certainly concede that the Bears were the underdogs in the NFC Championship game, but that certainly does not equate to them not being "good." That is a testament to the way the Packers have been playing. Really? Because I didn't hear one positive thing about the Bears, or anyone who thought they could win, all week leading up to that game.. there was literally no one that was backing the Bears for this game, it was pretty much a given GB was gonna be in the Super Bowl.. The only people who I heard give the Bears a chance, were Bears fans.. whether they were call ins on ESPNRadio or my mom, but no one else.. that's why I said what I said, and I don't think it was an inaccurate statement nor was it meant to start some fight..

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 11:59 PM) If you wanted to say that you should have said that. Instead, you said the only people who thought the Bears were good were Bears fans. Because that's true, do you not agree with that?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 11:56 PM) For someone to have to wait until the NFC Championship to say they were "right all along" or whatever makes them look like a damn fool. It's a little late at that point so it's meaningless. nah there's just no point in arguing with you people for weeks about the Bears when I don't really care that much to do so.. this way, at least the season is over and I don't have to deal with it

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 11:54 PM) No, we can't. You seriously can't recognize how well the Bears defense has played against the Packers, especially when compared against the rest of the league? This post is just trying to incite anger. Its not to incite anything, you don't have to agree with me but I didn't think the Bears were that good of a team.. and guess what, im not the only person who thought that as well.. they beat like 3 third string QBs during the season and got a gift of the Seahawks at home in the playoffs.. the Bears were very fortunate this year

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 24, 2011 -> 08:40 PM) Vick and Ben are both scumbags. If Ben did indeed rape that girl than there's no such f***in thing as paying your dues. Its hard to say Ben raped anyone when nothing was made from either accusation.. it could have been a money grab just as much as he really could have sexually assaulted them.. but he does seem like a pretty big douche either way

cant we just all agree the Bears are who we thought they were and the only people who thought they were any good were Bears fans?

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 07:55 AM) Heard he is a nice guy but Batista was more skilled in the ring. eventually he was, Batista wasn't all that great when he first showed up.. hopefully this guy works out though I like his look and I like the way Nexus is going..

20 degrees, sunny, and no wind does not help out the Bears this weekend

man that mason ryan guy is like a batista clone

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 04:54 AM) HBK was introduced as first member of Hall of Fame. Too soon. Should of hyped it for like Mania 30 or something. too soon? hes a hall of famer day 1, I dont have a problem with it

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 03:04 AM) we have one, duh, the chicago "agree with me or die" soxtalkers haha, perfect

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Jan 11, 2011 -> 01:31 AM) Are you joining my hardcore kinect volleyball league or what?! yes, all we need is a team name

I also recently got the kinect and it would seem to be aimed more for family/kids.. although it is pretty cool.. 6 ft seems about right for where you need to be from the sensor, maybe slightly further..

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 7, 2011 -> 03:03 AM) Are you talking about Brees? Because you would have had to have brought Sean Payton with him too. Yes Brees, and having Sean Payton wouldn't have anything to do with it.. having a franchise QB is pretty much to main thing you need to be successful in this league.. aside from the fact there would have been better success and Saban more than likely wouldn't have left..

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Jan 6, 2011 -> 08:23 PM) Pete Carroll Honestly, I think Saban would've if he gave it more time. He was impatient though. Can't really think of anyone else. Usually successful ones are good in the NFL first, then go to college. Saban was a good coach, where he failed was the GM part of it.. he couldn't handle all of it and ran when he had the chance.. but I think he would have been good had he stayed in the NFL.. I mean s***, we were one bad medical report away from transforming the entire way the franchise is.. wed be where New Orleans is had it not been for that

I don't know how to dance but if we land Harbaugh I am going to do the dougie

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 5, 2011 -> 12:00 PM) Miz has been great as champ, and I hope Vince sees that and lets him hang onto it for a while. I really don't need an Orton reign any time soon, and Orton doesn't need the title to get over. However, I could do without seeing Alex Riley on my TV ever, but I understand why he's there. Yeah I am really enjoying the Miz right now

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 5, 2011 -> 01:04 PM) I honestly think they gave up too soon on RichRod. He had a ridiculously young defense and an offense just starting to get the system. I agree.. He was bringing in an entirely new system with entirely new players, and they were showing the improvment.. now they are most likely going to bring in someone who needs to wipe out the current roster/system and in three years they will be in the same situation again..

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Jan 4, 2011 -> 01:08 PM) Mocking the Draft has Patrick Peterson going at #2 to Denver to replace Champ Bailey as the shutdown CB. Da'Quan Bowers is at #4, said to be the best pass rusher in the draft (wonder if the Bills will pass at #3 though considering the problems Maybin has had). As for the Cowboys at #9, we need to take the best defensive player on the board, either a defensive lineman or one of the CB's (which the draft seems to have a few good ones early on). http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2011/1/3/19102...aft-andrew-luck Jesus, if Miami takes a RB at 15 I am going to be pissed.. an undrafted free agent just rushed for 1600 yards, unless you are getting an Adrian Peterson its not worth it at all to take a RB high in the draft..
