Swingandalongonetoleft Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 If the shot of Stafford with a pound of turf hanging off his helmet isn't on the front page of the Sports section,whoever makes those decisions failed at the job.

chw42 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Big game next week. After next week, the Bears play the Texans, Niners, and Vikings. Gotta get to 6 wins fast and hope they can pull out 5 in the last 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I'm surprised people complained about the O-Line today, besides the Suh sack they did a relatively good job and that is against a very good Detroit D-Line. Particularly impressed by Jamarcus Webb, he was solid all night and I remember him being decimated by Detroit last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 22, 2012 -> 03:34 PM) ?? He's been the best db on their team for the last several seasons and has crapped all over the Bears in their matchups. Its a HUGE loss. This. I love Woodson for obvious reasons, despite being on the Packers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 BTW, Briggs is playing the best ball of his career right now. Possibly Tillman as well, and he's STILL not the best CB on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't against the rules to my knowledge, although I do think they are supposed to not intentionally try to drive the quarterback into the ground, but Suh has a reputation for making tackles like that and this is just another one to put on his list. All I know is Schwartz is a loser and I am glad his team sucks balls again. Edited October 23, 2012 by iamshack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I doubt he broke the rules, but it clearly looks like he went with the tackling method most likely to injure rather than most likely to tackle the QB. Luckily for him, he's so immensely talented that he pretty much always gets you down no matter how he goes after you. Also, Jay Cutler is easily the toughest son of a b**** we've had behind center since I've started watching the Bears. I do recall a delirious Chris Chandler trying to take snaps at one point, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do recall a delirious Chris Chandler trying to take snaps at one point, though I disagree. He had Cutler by the shirt sleeve and it one point it looked like he was holding his hand. Cutler had already broken off a couple big runs in scrambles out of a rush so he'd already demonstrated ability to avoid sacks during the game. Suh got his other hand around him but Cutler still had his throwing arm available and for a moment it looked like he was trying to throw. Suh needed to get him down as fast as possible. And he did. Suh is a big man and has speed someone his size should not have. Everything he does looks violent. And his past has nothing to do with the play in question.

When I bruised my ribs (and broke one) playing flag football ( ) two years ago, I didn't even really feel it until the next day. Took about a month to get back to normal.

dasox24 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I don't think Suh's hit was dirty. It was vicious, but not dirty. I'll put it this way: if Peppers did that to Aaron Rodgers, I would have thought it was an awesome play. And I think most of you would too.

Kyyle23 Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 When Megatron dropped that huge gain on the first drive, I thought it would lead to one of two things, a huge game or shut out. I am glad it led to the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 On Suh's hit, I agree with the posts after mine. I have no problem saying that there are no problems with the tackle in a vacuum. In context of Suh's past, it seems like just another emotional, intent-to-harm play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem saying that there are no problems with the tackle in a vacuum. In context of Suh's past, it seems like just another emotional, intent-to-harm play. I don't have much of a doubt that Suh did try to hurt Cutler. He ripped Cutler's helmet off last year. He also elbowed him in the head two years ago in Detroit. Suh's not stupid. He seems like a pretty intelligible person when you hear him talk. Which is probably why he didn't go after Cutler when he had a shot at him early in the second half. That probably would have resulted in a fine or suspension. But IMO, one of the worst parts of that sack was after the play, when Suh went over to check out Cutler on the ground. Suh didn't give two s***s about Cutler's well-being. He was trying to act like he didn't try to hurt Cutler on that play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
