DABEARSDABOMB

That was just a classic segment. I like it when Ditka and Irvin go at it cause usually the results are hillarity. Ditka isn't always right (in this case he was) but the way he goes about his business cracks me up. The guy was a lousy coach, but I love watching him on tv.

Whoa, I'm not from LA, Orange County (I despise LA and all teams from LA, lol). But half the fam is from Chicago and somehow my love of the Chicago baseball team carried over to the Bears and Bulls as well. Plus I absolutely was always enamored with the town as a kid and always had a blast when I'd go visit my extended family there and all that jazz.

Best regular season football game I've ever seen the Bears play (I was 2 in 85 so I can't really comment on those games). Considering who we were playing, this was by far the best. The Panthers game of last year was another very well played game against a top notch team.

Thats a Bear Winner!!!!

Young kickers can build strenght. I remember reading about how he had been getting a lot better with his distance during the off-season. Young kickers can build strenght. I remember reading about how he had been getting a lot better with his distance during the off-season.

That was his best kickoff of his career. He's had some real good hang time on kicks too tonight.

Somewhere Heads is pleased because Seneca Wallace just threw a pass. Seneca Wallace from ISU.

I can't say he deserves them because you got to play and do the right things in practice and all the other stuff before he gets it. But he will get a lot more playing time and with that he'll earn the starting job.

Good as Gould!!!

We don't need to cut him cause there is no harm holding him on IR and seeing if he can get healthy but I wouldn't plan on him making a roster ever again with the Bears. That said the ability is definately there so no harm seeing if he can figure out a way to fix things. Of course I would be shocked if it happens and he'll likely be waived in the off-season. Maxey is a solid pickup though. 5th round pick this year by the Chiefs who seems to have some ability. That said its usually a bad sign when your a defensive back getting dropped by the Chiefs (even though there secondary is a little better this year than years past, but thats not saying much).

Oh, I want to point one thing out. I think Cedric Benson is OUR best running back. The guy is never brought down by the first guy that hits him and he has an extra burst. I want to see us get him way more involved in the offense and eventually have him as our #1.

There is a huge bears bar in burbank. Forget the name of it, but thats a good place to go. If he looks up Bars in burbank and calls around I think he'd find it. I know of one down my way, but its about an hr drive without traffic from LA.

Hester with a nice return and we are in Seahawk territory again. 5 sacks by our defense, but we have a ton of pressures. The best thing I saw though was how Alex Brown has done a pretty damn good job getting pressure on Hasselbach despite being pit up against the best LT in football.

HE seems to make plays whenever he's on the field. You got to like that out of a 5th round rookie. Seems to have a good motor.

Wow, this is some kind of football game. I'm totally loving this. Hopefully we can stay healthy and finish this baby strong!!!! Tommie Harris with a sack. We are freaking manhandling them.

1st home game of the season. Hopefully the crowd will be going NUTS!!!!

Mark Bradley will also play, according to KFFL. Good think it appears we will enter the Detroit game relatively healthy, hopefully the team can play good and leave relatively healthy as well with another W.

SHould be a great game. I'm so bummed I'm going to miss it. I never miss Bears games, but now I got a career and well I guess stuff will come up from time to time. Either way, thought it was worth noting that KFFL is reporting that Mark Bradley will play which is good news.

The guy was an all around stud, but the question would be whether he'll ever regain that athletic ability. If he still had it right now, you wouldn't think he'd be having this much trouble landing a 2nd gig. That said, I still say I'd take a flier on him, especially after reading how Bradley is only expected to take about 30 snaps the first 2-4 weeks of the season.

Understandable. Stuff happens and we've closed the thread so it can end and we don't get any told you so's or anything like that. I'm sure we are all happy about that nice 1-0 START, now lets play good against the Lions

The guy has a motor. I hope he stays healthy for a long time because he has the ability to be one of the premiere tackles of this decade.

The Lions are the 2nd best team in the division IMO, that said, if the Bears play well they should win. Of course there is no guarantee that happens and if I were a Lion fan I'd be really pumped up that for once the players seem confident and cocky enough to go out and predict a win.

Thats stinking great

Both the Giants and Cowboys lost. These are two teams that will likely be in the thick of the playoff race the entire year and its always a good thing when teams you are competing with for the playoffs (even though I fully expect us to win the division) lose. We also saw the Seahawks suffer a scare and well we will be playing the team that gave them the scare (Detroit) in our home opener. The Cardinals were solid in a win and may be a contender, while the Saints Reggie Bush had a monster day and there offense really looked pretty strong (they got quite a few weapons). You also had the Panthers (it seems like everyone's super bowl pick) losing in the first week to the Falcons so my week 1 power rankings would have the Bears as the top dog followed closely by the Seahawks.
