Bearstalk

Nice start! Here are two things the Bears need to do to continue this streak. 1.) Find one more O Tackle for depth. There has to be someone available in FA we can pick up now. I'd read teams were waiting to sign veterans until after week 1 was over so they didn't have to gaurantee the entire season of salary. Hopefully there's someone out there who might be excited about the fact that the Bears look better than expected and will choose them over someone else, if all else is equal. 2.) The Bears need to game plan for 8 in the box next week. Fox isn't dumb. The Bears running game this week was impressive but 150 yards in the air isn't going to scare …

I hate to say it to this board.........but I told you so that the Bears were going to win this game. Jones & Forte rush for over 150 yards, defense scores 9 points, Gould 2 for 2 in field goals no fumbles lost or interceptions throw by Orton, the defense gave up 50 yards rushing. Bears Offense 20 Colts 13 =WIN! Bears defeense 9 Colts defense 0 = WIN!

Noots’ Notes-Game One: 29-13 Win at IndianapolisBy Michael Nudo The Bears shocked the Colts in the home opener at Lucas Oil Stadium. They were led by Matt Forte’s running on offense and an opportunistic defense. If you were wondering, the word Forte means strength (AP Photo). OFFENSE QuarterbackKyle Orton (13-21-150) won’t like being called a game manager, but he truly earned the title in this contest. Orton continually made adjustments at the line to put his team into good plays, especially for some of the Forte runs. Although he threw a few helicopters and ducks, he showed great poise and made a few key plays. Orton didn’t let the crowd become to…

They look a hell of alot better when the players make plays. Peace

Peanut punching the ball out of Harrison's hand. Absolutely outstanding. Peace

Every single writer in Chicago can eat my shorts. I checked thier polls and everyone had the colts, Kiss my butt trib and suntimes writers, How do like me now says Forte.

HOW DO YOU LIKE DEM BEARS NOW!

Wow the Bears have limited the Colts to two field goals in the first half while scoring a saftey..........now that's my team!!!!!

Forte is having a good game. If we contuine to block he will have over 100 yards for the game! Oh by the way Dallas Clark is hurt and not playing!

Forte looks really good. Orton looks a little timid... Overall I think we are doing pretty good..

It's the first game of the season, we need some more Bears fans in there.

Even though it isn't Bears related, its a pretty huge piece of news. Peter King is reporting that those close to the situation indicate that they believe the injury will prevent him from playing this season. Obviously they'll know more once the MRI results are back.

Im embarrassed for them.

I'm thinking of signing up for NFL Field Pass so I can listen to the Bears broadcast call rather than the idiots that normally call the games. I do have a program that can record audio from an application so the thought came to mind to record the games and replace the audio with the Bears announcers. Would make for a cool option on a DVD to select either the original broadcast audio or the Bears call. I can usually get the broadcast on the radio but the signal comes and goes. Has anyone here had it in the past, has it this year and has an opinion on whether it's worth it or not?

The Rams are the absolute worst team in the league

Nice long bomb. Wouldn't it be funny if he has a a lot of success as a jet and the Packers who came close to a super bowl appearance struggles all year with Rodgers at QB. I say it's about time the Packers realize what the rest of the league deals with when trying to find that QB. Flipping back and fourth between the Falcon/Lions game and the Jets game. Detroit getting owned by a crapy Atlanta team. I should have picked Atlanta as my margin pool pick. Who'da thunk it? LOL

I love football and there is nothing better than opening day. Hope springs eternal and all the work from the team and all of our bullshit from the board will come to light. But, remember one thing boys... This game is winnable! So grab your favorite beverage, cook your favorite meat on the grill and get ready to support your team. This is the day that we will find out what our team and staff are all about. It's gameday! Go Bears! No prisoners!!!

How well the Bears answer five key questions will determine how many games they win in 2008: 1.Can they create turnovers the way Lovie Smith teams typically do? Defensive coordinator Bob Babich calls it the " AT&T'' approach -- attack, tackle and takeaway. But lately the Bears cannot find a good connection with the way they like to play defense. Their defense created only 13 of their 33 takeaways in the first half of last season and by then it was too late to recover. Overall, that was 11 fewer takeaways than 2007. Smith's teams need turnovers to win; he is 21-5 when winning the turnover battle since taking over in 2004. When the Bears have fewer takeaw…
