Is it just me or is Olin Kruetz totally washed up? He got plowed on that screen pass to Forte and also got blown into backfield twice in the RedZone

Dont' get NFL Network here wold anyone be able to burn a DVD copy of the game? I'd gladly pay for the effort and time. Message me if it's possible. Thanks

Cutler: 20-32, 214 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT Forte: 16 rushes, 66 yards, 3 catches, 32 yards, 1 TD Taylor: 8 rushes, 31 yards Knox: 8 catches, 100 yards, 1 TD Bears 23-16

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,3462831.story Brian Urlacher wouldn't bite when asked about a personal milestone he'll likely reach Thursday night. But as someone with a sense of history of the Bears, and specifically their middle linebackers, he knows what it will mean when he passes Hall of Famer Mike Singletary to become the franchise's all-time leading tackler. Urlacher has 1,484 and needs only four to overtake Singletary, a 10-time Pro Bowl selection. So what does it mean for the 32-year-old Urlacher, who's in his 11th season? "It probably means Lance (Briggs) is going to pass me in a couple years," he said. Briggs is fourth on…

Small blurb on official Bears site says Piso is out for Thursday's game, who takes his place? I assume Roach, but wonder if anyone has seen anything definitive.

After a day of pondering the game... 1. Hester is such a joy to watch! So glad he's back taking kickoffs like so many of us have been screaming for... He is a difference maker there. 2. Cutler had a big boy game. He made a bad mistake in the red zone, but made up for it with pretty much flawless decision making other than that. The playaction to Kellen was a thing of beauty. 3. The D looks good. They are oportunistic. Pretty much the pedigree that Smith was hired on. I still worry about the big gaffe by the safteies that led to a TD and a PI. I still would like a little more pressure on the QB... But overall, these guys are playing good defensi…

http://www.theredzone.org/BlogDescription/...er/Default.aspx Chris Mortensen of ESPN reports that Ed Werder is reporting that Brett Favre felt sharp pain in right shoulder on Saturday, perhaps in same biceps area as 2008. Maybe the fact you're a washed-up turd...

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...the-week-award/ Devin Hester wins NFC player of the week award Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on November 16, 2010, 5:40 PM EST In case you missed it, the old Devin Hester is back on returns for the Bears. He returned two kickoffs against the Vikings for 100 years. He had a 42-yard punt return. He even threw in four catches and a 19-yard touchdown. Hester’s work on returns earned him NFC special teams player of the week. “Devin has it going right now,” said coach Lovie Smith. “Guys are doing a great job blocking for him and he’s feeling it as far as thinking he can go the distance each time.” Hester return…

The Bears win by 14 points, and probably could have won by 10 more, but what do we hear after the game? 1. What's wrong with Farv 2. Will Farv return 3. Why the locker room isn't the same as last year On top of that, we see two highlights: 1. Farv's TD to Harvin 2. Farv's INT to Briggs I hate how it seems that the Bears never get showcase time on the highlight shows.

1. Cutler was good today. A few bad decisions but overall was good. 2. The OL is starting to gel but they continue to rack up bad penalties. Yuck. 3. Tinoisamoa and Briggs were great today. 4. People need to stop ripping Peppers. He's not getting sacks but he's getting plenty of hurries while getting double teamed. 5. Robbie Gould...yeah, I'm his only hater on here, so I'll let this do the talking. He missed today after a FF on Favre at the end of the half, and missed last week IN A DOME which could've been the difference. 6. Olsen was fantastic today. He caught a TD and had his best game blocking in his career maybe today as well. 7. Devin H…

We're at the halfway point now, and there are some pretty obvious holes in the Bears' roster. It's always possible that some of them will be filled by season's end: Chris Williams could learn to play guard, one of our receivers could make the jump to a legit #1, Tommie Harris could reemerge as a great interior pass-rusher. At this point, though, none of that seems too likely. So if the season were over next week, who would you want in the draft? Here's my ideal scenario. 1) Julio Jones, WR, Bama - Cutler needs a go-to guy. I didn't buy it before this season, but now I'm convinced. As good as he is, he's always going to force a couple of passes into coverage, so…

Cutler is a moron. Has almost 12yards of open field in front of him. Coulda just run for a a few or even score. No, whip it at Johnny Knox who has 3 guys in front of him...

Make him the #3, play him in the slot, and have him in on all returns. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...,0,50346.column Peace

Getting ready for the Favre LoveFest. I hope we have Aikman at least.

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.

Hey Sam Rosen leave they analysis for the analyst. We have a steady diet of Rosen and Ryan the last few years and it has been atrocious. Sam Rosen takes over for Dick Stocton as the most unprepared NFL announcer.

While catching a glimpse of the MNF game were TO look very good I ponder the following: If someone would have told me at the end of last season that the Bears could have an opportunuity to get both TO and Moss on the roster this season I would of said no way. But that is exactly what JA could have done this season. TO is having a very strong year and Randy has been productive as well. Too bad JA did not go and get these guys when they were available. Because JA would then only really need to focus on solidifying the OL in the next draft and some additional depth at CB, DT, DE etc. But JA decided to be more riske and rely on young and inexpierenc…
