Would anyone be able to record tonight's game and send a DVD? I don't get NFL Network but would like to be able to see the game. I would be willing to pay for any costs and the effort to do it. Would greatly appreciate it

Will Tommie H. play tonight,or is he out because of what he did? If he is playing i wonder if he will go out with something to prove. I HOPE he comes out with some fire,it might just happen. With everybody seeing what he did on tv and his decline in play and many wanting to get rid of him,he might play his ass off. Plus what Vernon Davis said. It will be interesting.

New coordinator hasn't improved Lovie's defense Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on November 12, 2009 6:09 PM ET Since losing to the Colts in the Super Bowl three years ago, the Bears have defined mediocrity. They have won 20 games, lost another 20, and tried out three starting quarterbacks before landing Jay Cutler. The rotating signal callers have distracted attention from Chicago's biggest problem: Lovie Smith's defense isn't very good. The unit was below average in 2007 and 2008. With practically the same personnel back this season, Smith's big gamble this offseason was to appoint himself defensive coordinator. He was counting on coaching rather than player…

Game can be watched online. I can hook the laptop up to the TV with a DVI...anyone have an experience watching a game online?

Just thinking out loud here, but Harris missed two games this year. He missed one game when the staff benched him, and another yesterday after his bone headed move. The two games Harris missed happened to also be our two most humiliating losses of the season. Now, when I have watched, I have seen VERY little from Harris. At the same time, I do have to step back and ask. Is his presence more important to this defense than we want to admit?

With the latest issue with LJ and the Chiefs it is highly possible that he could be avaiable and a change of senery could do him well. I think LJ and Forte would make a nice rotation. Would you trade Harris for LJ?.

From PFT, Vernon Davis expects to "destroy" Bears defensive front Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on November 10, 2009 9:13 PM ET Like a lot of folks that have watched the Chicago Bears play football in recent weeks, 49ers tight end Vernon Davis is not impressed with what he sees. Unlike most of those folks, Davis has to play football against the Bears Thursday. And you can be sure they will remember his words from this week. "I think we can destroy their front,'' Davis said. "The guys up front, I think we can destroy them. I don't see anything spectacular about their front line." The Bears are 23rd in sacks and 22nd in points allowed on defense. Whil…

We'll let you get open and catch the ball, but we're going to try and tackle you when you catch it.

OK, so let me get this said up front: I'm not giving up on the Bears after 8 games. They could still be anywhere from 12-4 to 4-12 (although god knows they look more like a 4-12 team right now.) However this season plays out, though, there are some serious personnel holes on this team. If you believe (as I do) that Lovie's keeping his job, this next offseason is going to be really key. So here's the game: you're the 2010 Chicago Football Bears, and you need at least two new starters on the o-line, plus maybe a new CB and DT, depending on your viewpoint. Problem is, Jerry Angelo traded away all your draft picks! Well, at least all the ones on the first day. Mayb…

Everyone is giving our grades. I wanted to add this one because it comes from ESPN Chicago, and thus is a bit more knowledgable and indepth than most other national outlets. http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/story?pa...portcard_091111 General manager D+ The offensive line is overrated, getting old and losing athleticism. The free-agent signing of Frank Omiyale was the big mistake of the season so far. He's proven himself to be unathletic and unable to play offensive guard. Let's hope he can be salvaged at one of the tackle positions moving forward. Defensive backs are in a state of disarray. Peanut Tillman isn't getting any younger; Nathan Vasher has bee…

OMGZ KYLE ORTON IS THA BEST QB EVA!!!!! HE WINS GAMEZ MAN!!!! Some things never change. He continues to stare down WR's and he continues to play like a** when teams blitz him nonstop. I hope all Denver fans are happy with their QB who maintains their lead but can never come down and win them a game against a real defense.

Payne and Wolfe out for the game and other tidbits. http://www.chicagobears.com/news/NewsStory.asp?story_id=6295 Peace

Team MVP: Lance Briggs. Makes plays all over the field, shown leadership, helping as best he can where Urlacher is missing. Biggest Surprise: Johnny Knox. Everyone knew he could fly, but nobody expected this. Biggest Disappointment: OL. Their writeup: An offensive line that was expected to be significantly upgraded with the free-agent additions of Orlando Pace, Frank Omiyale, and Kevin Shaffer could be worse than last year's unit based on its uneven performance in the first half of the season. Pace has been a bust at left tackle, Omilaye is a pure tackle who struggled at left guard before being replaced in Week Eight by Josh Beekman, and Shaffer has been a n…

On that play for our offense when Jay hadda force it and throw an INT, who in the living hell wasnt there roughing the passer called? It was at least 2 seconds after the throw, a high-low, and numbnuts Dockett put the crown of his helmet in Cutlers throat? That really pissed me off Two positives from the game, i started Cutler and Olsen in fantasy,gave me 75pts. And, at least we will have new staff at the end of the season pss. Tommie Harris. you are Dallas bound

I have to ask. If others disagree, then I apologize to the two owners, but this looks like what I have always heard called a brother-in-law trade. What do others think? Andre Johnson (Hou - WR) Steve Slaton (Hou - RB) Beanie Wells (Ari - RB) Bernard Berrian (Min - WR) for Steve BreastonP (Ari - WR) Reggie Bush (NO - RB) Brian WestbrookQ (Phi - RB) Mario ManninghamP (NYG - WR)

it's time to clean house starting at the top and working your way down to the parking attendants. 1. the entire coaching staff is DONE. i have had my fill after watching this unbelievable performance today. it is so inept i can hardly find words to express just how bad it is. no matter how good or bad our players are talent wise this game showed just how really incredibly bad coaches they are. it was like lifeless animation watching this team play uninspired football today. lovie... just what are you watching out there? please realize i don't need a lunatic coach like ditka by any means at all, but this poor excuse of a HC is in freakin limbo!!! after seeing th…

What do you guys think and what would you do? On the plus side, he's a dumbass who has really been lazy the past couple years. Yes, he's played through an "injury", but he has skipped treatments in the past and just doesn't seam to get it. We'd also save money by cutting him as he's in a series of one year deals so there wouldn't be any cap rammifications, other than saving a few mill in current payroll (which could help the Bears cover the costs of firing Lovie and hiring someone else!!) On the down-side, they claim he's actually healthy and our two worse 1st halves of the Lovie era came with him on the sidelines. Maybe he is more valuable than we think an…

I'll focus on what could be changed right now to get the most out of our situation. Particularly looking at the future... 1. Jump on the nfo thought of moving Williams to LT, benching Pace and putting Shaffer at RT. Give it a whirl. Pace isn't going to be around next year. May as well start giving Williams the reps he needs. 2. Keep the offense similar to what Turner did this week. The change was working to a large extent. 3. Stop playing DB's so far off the LOS. I'd rather see us get burned once in a while vs. getting nit-picked to death for completions on every 3rd down. 4. Use some damn stunts on the D line for once... That's about…

I realize that we've already past the trade deadline, but I think its time to take a look at the future of this Bears team. One of the first names that comes to my mind is the wiley veteran, Olin Kreutz. Should we start to go another direction as we work on rebuilding our line? Could he be able to help us land an extra 3rd round pick in a trade? Would Josh Beekman (the so called guy grooming for the job) be a solid center. Essentially, should we trade Kreutz in the off-season for a 3rd or 4th pick, move Beekman to Center and than spend the money saved (plus whats in our coffers) for a big time tackle (or just find a real good RT if we think Williams can pla…
