But the thing of it is, we aren't playing against Aaron Rodgers. He's capable of alot more than Orton obviously. Our offense will be fine, hopefully our defense holds up all year long!

Yes, it was pathetic. Cutler can't do anything because he has no protection and Hester is an idiot for fielding the ball inside the 10 yard line..

Drama in the preseason? So far not a great start for the Bears offense.

I may sign up, depends what time I get back from driving back to school.

Who?

McDaniels better be the best coach since the beginning of time or he'll be gone after the season.

Other than that one really bad block on the Bears first run attempt, he did well.

Best he's ever felt? What has he thrown, 4 interceptions in two preseason games? I can't believe Denver gave us Cutler for this guy, hahaha. I'm LMAO.

Well according to Mark Schlereth A.K.A "Bears hater" Forte should be no where close to a top 5 fantasy running back because Jay Cutler is there to go down the field. He then goes on to say Cutler is not a top 10 fantasy QB because the Bears are a running team and Cutler doesn't have the talent around him. Somebody find a face palm...

I completely agree. I have a hard time understanding how one man gets 2 years in prison for shooting himself, while the other man gets 30 days in jail for killing someone while under the influence..

I think the Bears are pretty set on sticking with the receivers they have now. If Marvin Harrison could play anymore he would probably be with a team by now. We aren't the only team that needs receivers.

I don't know how Brett Favre makes the Vikings a super bowl contender. IMO he actually makes them worse. I swear to God, the media acts like this is the Brett Favre that is in his prime years that will throw 30 TD's in a season when in reality, he just got done throwing 22 freaking INTERCEPTIONS last year and stunk the last half of the year with the Jets! It is beyond me how someone can say the Vikings just won the division because they got a 40 something year old quarterback with declining skills. If the Vikings win the division which I don't see them doing, it will be because Adrian Peterson carries them there in spite of Favre. I see the Vikings finishing 3rd with the Bears in 1st and the Packers in 2nd place. Finally we have someone to take advantage of the Vikings poorest pass defense. Cutler will shred their defense as will Aaron Rodgers. I am not scared of Favre at all. Why would you be?

I don't see Hester ever being a #1 receiver. I think he'd be the perfect slot receiver.

Yeah, I had my starters set, so I figured I might as well take a flyer on him. I probably should have grabbed Hester instead though but I didn't want too many Bears cuz then I'd be screwed during the bye week.. It would have been amazing if I could have somehow gotten AP and Andre Johnson but the autopicks got him before round 2..

I AGREE!!

Well here's my team. I drafted a couple of weeks ago. I got the 1st pick out of 10. 1. Adrian Peterson 2. Roddy White 3. Darren McFadden 4. Jay Cutler 5. Willie Parker 6. Chad Ochocinco 7. Lee Evans 8. Greg Olsen 9. Carson Palmer 10. Vikings D 11. Michael Crabtree 12. Jamal Charles 13. LeSean McCoy 14. Justin Gage 15. Robbie Gould 16. 49'ers D

It is unbelievable how bad the media is overreacting to a Preseason game! I'm about to lose my mind. Jeez people, he aint going to throw for a bigillion yards in a game or throw 3 TD's every time he steps on that field. Who cares if he throws an interception in preseason. He's just testing the waters as of right now, trying to get a feel for how these receivers play and react in a live game. Not to mention the vanilla play calling. If they play this way against Greenbay in week 1, then I'd start to worry but until they play a full game or a full half, I'm not judging them. 2/3 of our offensive stars weren't playing in the game either. When we have Olsen and Forte in the lineup, it'll make a huge difference. I don't expect Forte to play more than 1 preseason game or so, Idk about Olsen.

That interception was totally Cutler's fault. Hester just made it worse by standing like a spectator instead of disrupting the DB from catching it.

Brett Basanez looked like a kid that won a promotional prize as a fan to play a series as the Chicago Bears quarterback. That's how bad he looked. His arm strength is pitiful.

What I learned: We are RUSTY! and IT'S PRESEASON. Nothing to worry about. 2/3 of our stars on offense were out. Forte and Olsen make a huge difference, Cutler was looking pretty nervous out there. He forced it up to Devin but Hester should have atleast gotten a pass interference on that instead of basically letting the guy catch it. -Our 1st string O line looked okay. not great, just okay. Cutler was rushed a few times, in particular that interception he was awfully close to getting hit. -Did Rideau and D.A even dress? Or was it just "everyone throw to Rashied Davis day"? I don't think either of those guys had a pass thrown to them all day and I may be wrong but I don't think they were on the field much at all. I also didn't notice Bennett in the game. The only two guys I really saw make plays were Davis and Hester... I think we will look better in the 2nd preseason game. Remember, there is no game planning in preseason. It's just a set of plays the Bears plan to run regardless of what the defense is doing. The defense looked like a carbon copy of last years which it probably should considering we have the same guys back, mostly. Edwards was 10/10. I would hate to start the season with Vasher as our starting CB, he's awful. I'm hoping Zack Bowman will take his place in the starting lineup once he's healthy.

Besides Hester's 2 catches, it seemed like the only receiver the Bears threw to was Rashied Davis... Never saw Rideau or D.A targeted for a pass at all.

West coast offense.. I don't even know if that's what Buffalo runs but that's what it looks like. Remember when Brian Griese killed us last year throwing over 50 or 60 times for about 400 yards?? LOL. That's why we need more pressure on the quarterback to cause those incompletions.

It's preseason, relax.

That's why.

I haven't noticed the fatigue at all. I guess I forget to look at it but I've had some really good games with Chris Johnson, Ronnie Brown, and Adrian Peterson so far. In my season Forte has been averaging about 80 yards per game which isn't great but he did have one game where he rushed for about 115. I like the new animations they added but I am kinda hatin on the one where you get gang tackled by like 4 players and you somehow sneak out of it only to rush for a 73 yard touchdown... I can see if Adrian Peterson was the one doing it but I've done it with Forte and little Chris Johnson several times.. So far the receiving animations have been my favorite, along with the QB's throwing obviously.. I like how you can control your steps as a QB with the right thumbstick, I just always forget to remember to use it when a blitz is coming because I'm so focused on throwing to a receiver. The new intros are pretty cool, I guess I was just thinking that there would be more to it. The jets flying by was about 3 seconds long and that was it.. They show the same animations everytime from a RB, QB, or WR.. They could have changed it up a bit. Another nitpick I have is I just played a game where Cutler sprained his ACL and Haine had to come in, but after the game the guy interviewed CUTLER! This shouldn't happen. I feel like EA could have done a much better job to fix these things. If your going to add some new elements to the game, atleast clean up all the problems first.
