No excuses for the Bears now. They control their own destiny to get into the playoffs. Lets hope Detroit and GB both lose Sunday afternoon before the Bears play so they can clinch Sunday nigh. Most important thing is to beat the Eagles first because they could very easily ruin our night. Cannot take them lightly. The fact that Minnesota just blew them out without Adrian Peterson and a bad QB in Matt Cassell gives me some optimism.

There really is no easy route to the playoffs for the Bears. They are going to have to earn every bit of it to get in. They could potentially be playing for the division next Sunday against Philly if Detroit loses their next two and GB loses to Pittsburgh, but the chances of that happening are slim. Not to mention the Bears would have to beat the Eagles as well to clinch in that situation, which is no given either. If Detroit wins tomorrow night, I think they win out. I don't see them losing more than 1 game the rest of the season, and I think their best chance for that one loss is against Baltimore tomorrow. I think they have NY and MIN coming up after that.

Greenbay probably just won the NFC North. The Bears have to win out either way, whether he plays or not, and who knows if GB would shut Rodgers down even in a loss tonight.

And right on cue Conte takes a bad angle on a deep TD pass in a prevent situation..

Cutler got it together in the 2nd half. Nice job bouncing back after a partial disaster performance in the 1st half.

Earl should ALWAYS be open with coverage focused on Alshon and Brandon. That was a good throw and read by Cutler.

Ratliff has been really good since getting healthy.

Megatron has a competitor for best jump ball receivers in the game. Holy hell. Why are you not throwing to him more??

Agreed. I'd draft a QB in the draft. Re-sign McCown, and at best, Franchise Cutler.

Luckily Jason Cambell has been as bad as Jay has in this game.

We scored, but I'm sick and tired of all the force balls to Marshall. McCown is clearly the better QB right now and should be playing.

The self-implosion is contagious.

Another Cutler pick when he's locked in to Marshall. How about throwing to Alshon, maybe?

Cutler does not look comfortable in the pocket, and his throws are way off. He's either putting too much heat on them or floating them past receivers in the secondary. Not a great start for him.

Holy cow. Jonathon Bostic actually got off a block and stuffed a run on that drive. Then Bowman picks Cambell off. Is this real life?

No more redzone INT's please. Finish off a drive.

What? He was locked in to Marshall the entire time with defenders all around him. That was a horrible read. That wasn't an incidental tip.

freakin Cutler with an INT already.

I would have stuck with McCown. If Cutler is rusty and we lose, Trestman will look like a fool. If he's great, he'll look smart.

We could use him.

How bad does that loss to the Vikings look now? God damn.. We could be in sole possession of 1st place right now and in control of our own destiny. Instead, we probably need to win out to even have a shot. Unlikely with Philly and GB coming up in a few weeks but miracles do happen.

Good win. They need to build off of this and not go backwards against Cleveland next week. We have some pretty tough games remaining on our schedule with Philly and GB (probably with Rodgers).

Alshon is a a better version of Marques Colston and Plaxico.

Alshon Jeffery is an All Pro this year. Might be a top 5 receiver already in the league.

sticking to blocks and over running his gap. You can say the exact same thing about Bostic.
