Bearstalk

So far in 2 games he exceeded all expectations of this year in passing, Its phenominal to see this on a bears team. I never have seen this in 1/2 century of existance. Game 1. 108.3 Game 2. 136.7 If this persists we maybe in for quite a year.

Guys I have a question that I have been torn with all week in 1 of espn leagues. It is a non-ppr league. I have Clinton Portis and Ryan Torain but Laurence Maroney is also available. I need 2 start 1. I know none of them are good options.

Just a few things I noticed today being at the game: - Forte was obviously great. Nice cut-backs. - Peppers is amazing. Manning made a few TD saving tackles + his good returns. Great job by Idonije as well. - Is Hester back? He's been great lately. - Why the hell did Martz start getting pass-happy in the 3rd? My God is Collins bad. If Lovie keeps him at the #2 QB, Hanie should punch Lovie in the sack. - OL (plus Manumaleuna) is still pretty terrible. - Connor: your boy proved me wrong with that 53 yarder today. - MadLith: told you- I'm 3-0 when I see them play somewhere other than Chicago. No worries. - Panthers fans are a joke. Didn't even get loud for…

Just heard that that Omiyale stays at LT, Webb at RT, and Chris Williams will take over for Garza at LG. I'm intrigued. I've reada few things that Williams may end up being a better guard than tackle. I guess the experiment continues...

This reminds me of when Griese killed the Bears a few years ago. This Cover-2 shit is just not a good defensive scheme if the opponent has a patient QB who is willing to chuck the ball for 7 yards at a time. It's the same thing that happened in the Super Bowl. Eventually, the DBs are naturally going to step in a bit, wanting to stop the quick passes and perpetual first downs. And then what happens? The deep outs and the seam passes are open. This defensive scheme just sucks. I hate its passive nature, and the way it can turn stud players into average players.

Butkus rips Bears, wonders if Lovie is lame-duck Oct 19 10/19/2010 9:40:27 AM | More Bears Hall of Famer Dick Butkus had some pointed remarks Monday about his former team's struggles on offense according to David Kaplan of the Chicago Tribune. "(The offensive line) is awful," said Butkus, in town to promote his "I Play Clean" foundation to educate athletes about steroid abuse. "The Skins and whoever else they play have to be looking at tapes today and licking their chops. The Bears have their hands full. "It would be different if it was just the left tackle blowing a block every other time. But this is the left guard, then the right tackle .…

Tribune just reported it. This means it will be BB and a banged up Percy Harvin. Both of which are questionable. You have to expect to see a whole lot of Apete.

I've been thinking...scary thought, I know...but I see this team as pretty oppotunistic. Granted, they flubbed opportunity against SEA and WAS, but they certainly made the most against DET, in DAL, against a horrid CAR team, against a bad BUF team, agasint a fuel-less MIN team, and against a banged up MIA team. They are 7-3 for a reason. For the most part, they've made the most of their opportunities. Now, are they really good? Well, I know their D and ST's are. And I know the OL is not good. I know the WR's are fair, the RB's are sufficient, and the TE's capable. The QB is all over the map, but I think he's more good than bad. Regardless if we are truly …

In the six games since the bye week Olsen has the following stats: 23 targets 13 catches 120 yards 3 TDs And it appears to be getting worse. In the last three games? 3 targets 3 catches Martz is severely underutilizing a dangerous pass-catching TE. And we all called it at the beginning of the year. I was hoping it wouldn't happen, but it appears that the trend continues.

I can see it now. We win the game but hear the "the Bears get lucky again facing a team with key injury" kinda deal. IMHO Sanchez isn't that good as it is. The easy headlines for this game will be if the Jets win "Sanchez plays tough through injury and leads his team to victory." Bears win "Bears luck continues as they beat an injured Sanchez lead Jets team"

Big Game BRING EM ON

In the last game against the Bears, Seattle had six sacks. After a quick analysis, it's pretty clear what needs to be fixed. Here is a list of the sacks (may not be in order)... 1 - Lewis - CB/S blitz - Outside - Omiyale bad read 2 - Curry - LB blitz - Outside - Webb bad read 3 - Milloy - CB/S blitz - Outside - Webb bad read 4 - Babineaux - CB/S blitz - Outside - Forte bad read 5 - Milloy - CB/S blitz - Outside - Webb bad read 6 - Babineaux/Clemmons - CB/S blitz - Outside - Webb bad read Aside from the misread by Forte, that's 5 sacks that have the following in common: 1 - From the outside of the tackle 2 - The OT made a bad read and dove inside…

If you haven't seen this, it's too funny.

After seeing amazing games played by Seattle, the New York Jets and Pittsburgh since the beginning of this playoff season, I believe that anything can and will happen during the playoff season. With New England, who many "ASSUMED" would walk away with another Super Bowl, out of contention it only proves that point. Chicago is VERY capable of winning a Super Bowl this year. All they need to do is get past the next challenge in Green Bay. All the teams currently left in the playoffs have lost to the Bears in the last two years. And although Chicago lost the last meeting with Green Bay, I don't think it wasn't because they weren't capable. In no stretch of the imagina…

I watched the game against the Seahawks again, and I noticed that there was a LOT of max protect. On a few plays the Bears had 6 or 7 guys in blocking a 4-man rush. Made me think of two things: 1) Did anyone else notice this? 2) Is this something that should be used repeatedly against the Packers?
