I'll be watching it with a steak grilling on some charcoal.

Best performance I've ever seen from a Bears wideout. I know they've had guys put up more yards, etc, but he had some dominant plays. Total game changer. Beautiful to see. He makes everyone so much better as they all move into more complimentary roles. I hope Alshon learns from Marshall's prowess and abilities on the field.

Defense did look susceptible. Real poor defense against the rush and the middle of the defense looked soft at times against the pass. Still a lot to work on. As a whole, I'm happy, but they will have to continue to improve. Oline really did a nice job after the 1st 2 drives. Spencer was the worst and Webb really had a great game. The thing is, Webb's issue has alwasy been the bonehead plays vs. the great plays. He's going to have to show that he can do things consistent and it will take a while to prove that. Hopefully he does. Kellen Davis is garbage. Rodriguez had some nice blocks though and I won't be surprised when he's starting by the end of the year.

Spencer has looked bad.

I'll agree with that. While we are Bears fans, YBR just seems like a total jackass with agendas and more often then not, provides very little (and often times) inaccurate information.

This will be a really tough game. Bears have a hard time blocking 3-4 defenses, so that will be a real test. Packers offense is real good and Bears pass d does give up quite a bit of points.

A. The quotes aren't bad. B. I understand why he'd want to get some more carries near the goal line. C. I'm sure he will get some ocassional ones. D. I love me some Matt Forte. Just a total professional in my opinion.

Unanimous in your eyes. I haven't seen it from anyone else.

Wohooo!

The guy had one injury at Wisconsin. One. He got hurt while playing. Give me a break.

My understanding was they have been resting him a bit as he's still getting in game shape and recovering and they don't expect him to get back to 100% until he plays in real games as there is no way to simulate some of the endurance necessary.

McKinnie restructured his deal and will stay with the Ravens.

Stupid tackling caused the injury but the good news is he should be okay and he was considered more of a project anyway. Hopefully Wright/Conte step up and Hardin does a good job learning and developing himself during practices. He's a good athlete and I like his potential.

Not at all surprised. The guy is way past his prime and was brutal in the preseason.

Word on the street was that Williams really dissapointed the Bears this off-season and during camp. He wasn't in shape and really hasn't done what was necessary and that is why there is some talk of him being cut.

I was in Chicago the past few days and there was a lot of talk by the various analysts on the radio that they would not be surprised if Williams was cut. I personally don't see why you would cut him. He's still a swing tackle who can provide depth and as far as I could tell, a passable guard. However, I agree, Webb has won the job (well, he's proven he's the better of the two...which doesn't necessarily say much).

Agreed. What the Skins do doesn't matter, ultimately it is the results and Webb played a solid game. In fact, I think he played a better game then Williams (who was also solid). I think most of the experts that watched the film as well had similar comments.

Stay healthy and make progress!

I liked Garza in it, haha.

Yep.

Its interesting because Urlacher seems to be having similar issues to when I strained my mcl and tore my meniscus. No surgery was required, rest and rehab is what I did, but anytime my knee made contact with anything, it would explode for a couple weeks (and I'd lose all movement). Slowly it would swell less and eventually it calmed down, but that was literally like 2 years removed from the injury. That said I'm not a professional athlete and I wasn't consistently going to therapists when it did swell. I would whack it on something (usually by diving during a baseball game) (so physically cause it stress), which would cause it to blow up for about a week to 2 (depending on how bad of a blow).

I don't care about his smarts. I care that he makes plays on the football field and stays out of trouble off the football field. Thats it.

King was on the Herd this morning and talked about how good Jeffery has looked in camp. Herd is picking the Bears for the superbowl. King wasn't quite at that level of confidence, but indicated the team is clearly in the mix/discussion but the key is going to be the oline. Said the offense looked good last night (King was at Bears game) and Marshall has been a beast.

I don't care if he's back for Indy. I want to know that he'll be back and healthy by the middle to the end of the year. I don't want to rush the guy back if it means we will never have a healthy Urlacher (and maybe we just won't ever have a healthy Urlacher). There is clearly something going on here and the Bears are being incredibly secretive about it.

Lot of rumors saying he's looking into getting surgery. I'm assuming its more of a minor clean-up, but I'm curious to see what is going on.
