Chisoxfn Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 02:01 PM) They're not 20-25 carries good. The past couple weeks Barber looked better than Forte. Barber and Bell are fine. The Bears problem is the s*** they have at wideout (outside of Bennett) and Jay Cutler being hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Forte went down, the running game went with him. Edited December 4, 2011 by Jordan4life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 SF defense is great but I can't see them winning a game in the playoffs against the likes of GB, NO, and maybe even Dallas and NY despite beating them already. Alex Smith is still Alex Smith and if Gore gets hurt again, they are screwed there. They just won't be able to score enough IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:00 PM) Nice of you to troll when the Bears have a s***ty backup QB throwing passes. Bears had scored 30+ points in quite a few games with Cutler and were rolling on offense with Jay. I'm not trolling. Just being objective. The Bears do not have a championship caliber offense. Earl Bennet? Are you serious. He's a 4th WR in GB or NO. The Bears go defense, special teams, offense. That's the way it's always been. That doesn't win anymore unless you're the Steelers. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:00 PM) With a healthy Cutler the NFC has about 5 teams better than almost all of the crap in the AFC. NFC is far superior to the AFC. Again, the SB will not be played in Lambeau. That's a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) Oh, what a f***ing game to attend as my first non-preseason Bears game (so essentially my first game). It was great being there, but damn did we beat ourselves. I hope we lose out and get a better draft pick b/c even if we somehow make the playoffs, this team cannot compete anyway. This football season, as a whole, has been the worst of my life. All of the best players from my two teams (UT and the Bears) have suffered serious injuries. I've hit rock bottom as a fan.

SoxFan1 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 04:27 PM) The NFC is pretty crappy outside of the Niners, Saints, Falcons, maybe Dallas? I like the chances of an AFC team in a neutral setting beating GB much better than an NFC going into Lambeau. Falcons? Cowboys? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put them in any order you want. It's the Packers and everybody else in the NFC. Duke said the Bears, with a healthy Cutler, had as good a chance as anybody to beat the Packers. That doesn't mean much to me because the Packers are so much better than everybody else. So what if the Bears are the tallest midget. They had their chance last year when Rodgers was somewhat human and they had homefield advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 4, 2011 -> 03:10 PM) I know Cutler is hurt. But the Bears are really hard to ever take seriously. They haven't fielded a legitimate offense since 19ninetynever. They pretty much go as far as their defense and special teams take them every year. In the 21st century, the game is geared towards the offensive side of the ball. Look at the teams that are getting to and winning the SB of late. Explosive aerial attacks, solid running games, above average defense and special teams. Take out most teams top QBs and RBs and they wouldn't exactly be setting the world on fire.

They are 1-7 now in their last 8 trips to AZ, I believe. They definitely are not as good as the Packers. But the question was who was capable of beating the Packers.

IlliniKrush Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Coughlin mismanaged the clock in the last drive, you don't have 3 timeouts so it's do or die anyway, need to use most of the clock. Hurrying up to run a play before the 2 minute warning was part of that. WTF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 after oakland and kc, if the bears think they still have a shot then unfortunately McNabb probably needs to be signed.
