Was the drive at the end engineered by Orton. Outstanding. I was hoping he would break through with a game ending drive. Can't blame him for the loss. He looks like our starter for years to come. Peace

Atlanta is 23rd against the pass and 21st against the run. Orton 21-34, 243 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT Forte 23 rushes, 104 yards, 1 TD- 3 catches, 36 yards Booker 3 catches, 34 yards Olsen 5 catches, 65 yards, 1 TD Hester 4 catches, 44 yards, 1 TD Bears win 27-17

Noots’ Notes-Game 6: 22-20 Loss at Atlanta By Michael Nudo The Bears (3-3) somehow managed to get into a game they had no business to be in with just a few minutes remaining. They then managed to lose a game they had no business losing with only seconds to go. This game was clearly mismanaged. Bear defenders helped build a Canton bust for Matt Ryan on Sunday (AP Photo/Dave Martin). OFFENSE QuarterbackKyle Orton (26-43-286, TD) did all he could do to put the Bears in position to win the game. He led the Bears on an excellent touchdown scoring drive at the end of the fourth quarter to put the Bears ahead with only 11 seconds to go. He threw a perfect…

Our cornerback depth is in shambles. Hopefully, Vash is back next week and the other 3 are not out long. Wow. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,5307510.story Peace

Many people at the time wanted us to trade up and snatch Flacco. Now, doing that, we probably would have been stuck giving up our 2nd round pick (Forte). Flacco looks good and so does Forte, and both look like they could be franchise players at their respective positions- looking back on it, would you rather have Forte, or would you rather we traded up and took Flacco?

The only way we are getting into the playoffs is by winning our division. Need to go 4-2 or 5-1 in the division to win it. Peace

Man that HURT. What happened? 1. Our defense couldn't stop 3rd and longs. 2. Our OLine sucks when rushing (but are ok in pass protection). 3. We didn't use our TEs enough in the first half. 4. Not much pressure on defense, even when blitzing. 5. Special Teams coverage and the damn squib kick at the end.

If this trend continues I can not see a QB taken in the first round for a long time. His play is everything so far we hoped for. And Tturner calling the plays the way he has is what I remember from his last stint with the Bears. Maybe.

Matt Forte is a workhorse. He proved it at Tulane and he's proving it for the Bears. Forte is a fantasy owner's dream. He is a true feature back and doesn't come off the field in short-yardage or third-down situations. Forte has appeared on the injury report just once in the first five weeks. He was listed as probable in Week 2 with "ankle soreness." But since the Bears' season opener, Forte's yards-per-carry average has dropped sharply. On his last 61 totes, Forte holds a Cedric Benson-like 2.7 YPC. In Forte's last two games, he's mustered only 2.3 yards a carry. And in one of those contests he was going against the Lions. As a senior for the 4-8 Green Wave, Fo…

Endurance is strength of rookie RB Forte The Sun-Times has an interesting article stating an argument that Forte's decline in running yardage is simply not using him enough. I am not sure I agree, as I applaud Turner for turning to the air when defenses stack the box, but it does seem to have some legitimate points. I was wondering what your thoughts are on this article?

Roster moves: The Bears on Saturday terminated the practice squad contracts of wide receiver Mike Hass and punter Zac Atterberry.

He has stepped up and is definately our #3 now. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bear10.article Peace

Williams' Bear Debut May Be Near According to an article in the Chicago Sun-Times we may see Williams on the field a lot sooner than many of us thought. Now I see why they kept him on the roster. I doubt we see him as a starter until after our bye week but according to the article we might see him test the waters a few snaps before the bye.

Didn't Detroit have the worst run defense, and we couldn't get 100 yards on them? I didn't get to see the game, so I'm shocked Forte only had 35 yards..

Monday, 12:33 p.m. The Bears terminated the contract of guard Tyler Reed this afternoon. Although he was in the running for a spot on the 53-man roster during training camp down in Bourbonnais, Reed hasn't been able to elevate himself off the practice squad in three years as a pro. Reed was originally a sixth-round selection of the Bears out of Penn State in the 2006 NFL Draft.

INJURY REPORT AND IMPLICATIONS Chicago Bears (3-2) at Atlanta Falcons (3-2) By Michael Nudo Michael Turner presents a big challenge to the Bears defense (AP Photo/Rick Havner). BEARS OFFENSEcolor> vs. FALCONS DEFENSEcolor> The Bears are pleased with the progress of rookie offensive tackle Chris Williams’ recovery from a back injury. John St. Clair has started at the left tackle position Williams was penciled in at before he got hurt. St. Clair has played just well enough to not be a problem. He draws John Abraham this week, who leads the league with 7 sacks. Devin Hester (ribs) should be at a point where his injury should be a minor factor in his p…
