ChWRoCk2 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Even though Green Bay didn't play their best game last night I'll take the win. Â The 3-4 defense certainly looked solid for their first real game, safeties were getting beat but Green Bay has little depth there. Loved the aggressiveness. Can't wait till BJ is on the field, the defensive line looked tired in the second half to me. Will Blackmon coming back will help as well, gives GB another corner and a better return man on special teams, Nelson didn't do too bad though. Â Offense definitely looked like s***, whole right side of the line could not hold down Ogunleye or anybody in general. I would have liked to see Green Bay used the 5 receiver formation more and get Finley more involved, they threw to him early but then he just disappeared. James Jones was nowhere to be found either. Run game was so so, I still don't like Wynn and wish Jackson was used a little more, he looked decent towards the end of last season and I like him receiving the ball instead of Wynn. Bengals should be a nice matchup for the offense next week and the Rams the following week. Â Both teams really didn't play their best football tonight, should be a better matchup come December. Â 1-0! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked a little out of sync, but it's the first week. They just missed some big plays.  The D-line looked awesome. Cullen Jenkins is a beast. I can't wait till BJ gets in the rotation too.

dasox24 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 14, 2009 -> 08:45 AM) Urlacher out for the season. Awesome. Of all the players to suffer a bulls*** wrist injury on our team, it has to be our most important piece that covers all that ground in the Cover 2.

longshot7 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 A dislocated wrist shouldn't keep you out 4 months. Unless there's something else wrong, he should be back after a few games. Heck, even a BROKEN wrist shouldn't keep someone out the whole season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 (edited) According to ESPN, the Bears have contacted Derrick Brooks about joining the team. I wonder if that means they'd put Briggs at MLB and move Brooks to his old weakside spot 'cause I don't think Brooks has enough left in the tank to cover all that area the Mike has to in our defense. But, I think he could still help us out. Edited September 14, 2009 by dasox24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddy Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 of course the year I finally decide to follow the Bears from start to finish, that awesome game takes place AND Urlacher's out for the year. It's a sign.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwolf68 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Â There are few finer men than Derrick Brooks who have played pro football in the last two decades, but does he have anything left? A player with his pedigree, his class, his humility, his character, his leadership is currently out of work...the only reason a team would not have him on their roster by now is he just can't do it anymore. Â I hate that, because DB is one of my all time favorite non Bear players, and would love to see him help this team. I just don't know if he can (at least on the field).

I am not a fan of Urlacher by the way.  This is an ideal situation for Brooks as he knows that defense as good as anyone.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I'll love getting Brooks in there. Defense played great though...great. Offense had its problems but I expect things to get better. Cutler wasn't near as bad as some would indicate, especially given the pressure he was seeing all game. Â It will get better Bear fans, it will!!
