In an attempt to quickly forget the Texans game...

 

Go to 8-2.

An extra day for Cutler to get cleared to play.

Campbell to be the man.....not feeling nearly as concerned as I would have last year with the backups.

Looking for a solid game from the team. NO TOs, lots of great D and get the running game on track. An NO injuries!

The battle of backups! Just what ESPN wanted from this matchup, eh?... Not exactly.

 

I don't see a guy like Kaepernick doing much of anything vs a Bears defense that's built to stop mobile quarterbacks. But on the flipside, I don't expect Jason Cambell to do anything against the 49'ers defense because I don't think he's any good. It'll be a battle of attrition on Monday I presume. Whichever team can put together at least one solid drive at some point in the game, or get a defensive touchdown, might come out on top.

 

I'll pick the Bears win in a nail-biter, 13-9, but I don't pick that score with much confidence. We'll see how it goes..

The Bears Defense should thrive on this inexperienced QB. I expect the Bears to win the turn over battle, and the D steps up once again for the win. The offense will do just enough.

All the pundits are playing up he SF D, and pretty much dissing Url, Peanut and the gang. Hope they put a lesson on tonight. The Bears' D is not too bad, you think?!

No excuse now with Smith out. We actually should have an advantage with Campbell over Kaepernick.

Podlesh has been a shitty punter all year. He needs to get the axe here real soon.

Oh dear god. This could be a blowout. Defense and offense look completely out matched. Scrub QB is torching our defense.

This is what happens when the bears try to stack the box and play man.

BTW, we need to steal this OC. Exactly the type of offense the Bears need to run.

Has the Devin Hester gimmick play EVER worked? I have no idea why you would ever take Alshon Jeffery off the field for this bum.

This is less about the Niners O and more about the Bears D. The Bears, as always under Lovie, have been a defense that allows an opponent to move the ball fairly easily. Even when scrub QBs get in the game. Remember when Griese absolutely torched us?! This is nothing different.

 

The defense has holes, and as long as the turnovers don't come in bundles it's very vulnerable.

 

Actually, this game is a perfect example of what many on this board have talked about in terms of an attacking defense and a passive defense. The Bears have a passive, albeit opportunistic, defense. The Niners, on the other hand, have an aggressive, attacking offense. Witness the difference.

Please draft a real Safety...

Time to watch something else.

how the hell does the SF back up QB look awesome and our back up QB looks like absolute shit. Another crap effort in a prime time game so far. 17-0 already, geez

How many times does this question have to be asked during the Lovie Smith tenure?

1.). Their OC is not learning on the job.

2.). Their OL has actual starters and not random fat guys who might gel in game 15.

3.). They have a TE.

Give me a friggin break!

Wow. What is that strange slant play the Niners keep using with such great success? It's almost like I recall a certain team in green and yellow successfully using it against the Bears numerous times over the years.

Emery has his work cut out for him. The LBers look like crap, Briggs included. OL, TE. Lot of places need front line help.

Give me a friggin break!

 

Open your eyes man. This has happened many times during Lovie's tenure. A QB that's supposed to be subpar comes in and performs well because the Bears defense is known quantity that has been admitted many many times. Everyone knows what the Bears are running 95% of the time, and it's just a matter of the other team executing correctly.

 

Hell, I remember a game when two Bears QBs that this board has absolutely TORCHED did pretty well against the Bears defense. Todd Collins lit this defense up! And in the same game, so did, guess who, Jason Campbell!

 

Billy Volek did it years ago. Brian Griese did it. I'm sure there are others but I just can't think of them right now.

Wow. That series was ATROCIOUS!

 

First play, Forte has nothing.

Second play, WTF was Garza looking at?

Third play, when the hell has the RB screen ever worked for the Bears?
