Man, all I gotta say is that Lovie and his staff need to re-examine how they evaluate the talent they have in camp. A lot of us here recognized that FB Lusaka Polite was a hammer and yet we let him go despite him busting people up in preseason a few years ago. Last night, that guy was a beast. To me, it's nice to have the RBs that Miami does, but this guy Polite is a difference maker. He was leading the way on just about every run and screen, picked up countless blitzes, and when they needed a yard, this guy would get into his block and get + movement every time. We haven't had that here in ages...unless you wanna count the time that he was in our camp. …

Listening on the score today they said they have a poll on there website and thought it was very interesting. Not quite like your normal polls. I wanted to see what everyone thought lol. Who is the WORST Bears QB of all time???

They looked great this week vs SF. Almost 500 yards of offense, 8-15 on 3rd downs. This will be a huge test for us next week.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/category/rumor-mill/ The Cowboys really are "America's Team" Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on October 7, 2009 7:00 PM ET The Harris Poll is probably run by a large company that does many important things. But I only hear of it one time a year, when they come out with the poll that says who is "America's favorite football team." And the envelope please . . . The Dallas Cowboys came in first in the poll for the third straight year, which doesn't exactly make up for the lack of playoff wins of late. But it certainly helps Jerry Jones' bottom line. The Steelers came in second, followed by the Bears, Colts, and…

"Bears DE Adewale Ogunleye, $7,500 for unnecessary roughness (a horse-collar tackle against the Lions) " ...from NFL.com Was this the same play that most others reported was a bogus facemask penalty, meaning the NFL not only didn't think it was bogus, but they fined him for it? (the game wasn't televised so I just listened to it on the net radio).

Article on Knox in the Trib, http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/chi-0...,6624745.column First half of article uses humor while making the point Knox is great, and then goes on to talk about the need to basically make him the fixture of the offense. W/o using the word starter, that is essentially what it says he should be, saying he should not just play 3 WR sets and should only leave the field when he needs to catch his breath. That means he would be a starter. I completely understand the logic and reasoning, but simply disagree. Before the season began, Knox was small school talent considered to have great speed and talent, but raw. He had faced tale…

They ran Wolfe up the middle again, a couple times.

they just said the Knox has a leg injury? What happened?

Impressive accomplishment: Smith registered his 50th victory in his 88th game as Bears coach Sunday (including playoffs), reaching the milestone quicker than Bill Parcells (89th game), Bill Walsh (91st), Chuck Noll (94th), Bill Belichick (111th) and Tom Landry (119th). http://www.chicagobears.com/news/NewsStory.asp?story_id=6177

I finally found the answer to my question that I posted earlier. Man, does that go back a very long time. Most of us here were probably not born yet or extremely young to remember this. http://www.chicagobears.com/news/ChalkTalk...p?story_id=6184

Isnt that the same injury Columbo suffered from forever?

Now that we're 4 weeks in, I'd like to get everyone's playoff predictions NOW and some of the awards. Let me start: AFC 1. Colts 2. Ravens 3. Patriots 4. Broncos 5. Steelers 6. Chargers NFC 1. Giants 2. Saints 3. Vikings 4. 49ers 5. Bears 6. Eagles MVP: Peyton Manning (special mention: Peterson, Brees, Flacco, Eli Manning, Cutler) OROY: Mark Sanchez (special mention: Knox, Moreno, Garcon, Harvin, Stafford) DPOY: Elvis Dumervil (special mention: Allen, Revis, Rhodes)

Did anyone else have flashbacks of Jimmy Mac when Jay dove for the end zone from two yards out? We have a QB who is athletic and has a cannon, who can beat you multiple ways.

The Bears had great field position all game. It really shows you how bad the bottom of the roster for Detroit is. We simply dominated on returns all day long. Peace
