I am clearly in with the hope of two losses to end the year, resulting in better draft picks and improved chances of public clamour assisting to prompt management to dump Lovie.

 

Hate to say it, but those are my feelings. The season is gone regardless, and I don't want to see the Bears get burned up in the first round of the playoffs regardless.

 

You call yourself a fan with this sort of talk? Sad.

The Saints (and the Cowboys coaching staff) are on the verge of doing the Bears a solid favor.

I think the Bears want the Cowboys to win. If they win out they have the tie breaker over the Giants. The Bears have the tie breaker over the Cowboys.

 

Edit:

Nevermind, it gets more confusing, I forgot they play the Redskins the final week. Them winning out would put them in the Divisional game. I hadn't looked at the scenarios since last weekend and shouldn't have spoken.

TD? I'll take that. Now, will the refs overturn that one?

Man, you know the Cover-2 is done when Lindley is tearing it up.

YOU can only hope. Keep the bad vibes coming.

Hester, Hester, Hester

Why call him out for what many are thinking?

 

We all want the Bears to go 16-0, but it's not realistic. So, intelligence says that we sometimes have to take 1 step back to take 2 steps forward. If the Bears win the final 2 and sneak into the playoffs, the most likely scenario is a first round exit. But if for some reason the team squeaks out a win, it will likely mean Lovie stays employed in Chicago, and that would be a negative. Two years in a row now we've seen a last second win that screws the team out of a better draft selection.

 

I think we're all sick of the Lovie mediocrity that ensures a non-threatening team that does just enough to keep his job.

Hester, why don't you just run back through the end zone?

I'm slowly but surely falling into the "who cares if Hester returns"-camp. That guy is going backward far too often for a punt returner. It's ridiculous.

That's the conundrum. We want them to win, but Lovie is never going to get this team to the promised land.

And funny that you should say that. As I was posting that I was just thinking how "sick" I'm getting of some of you actually hoping for the team to fail. Just to get rid of Lovie. I don't know how you can consider yourself a fan with that way of thinking. THAT, to me, is pathetic.

What's pathetic is this staff has reached its max. They can't move to the next level. The staff needs to go for this team to get back on top.

Even if the teams picking ahead of the Bears win their final 2?

Yes, we would've gained one slot, but with Dallas and Pittsburgh both losing, we are pretty much locked into 19 or 20 at this point unless we make the playoffs.

Hey Url, were those boos for the home team? Only Chicago fans boo the home team, no?

So as fans we "hope" for them to lose? Just to make that transition? Sickening.

I'm to the point of indifference. I'll be happy to see the Bears win, and know that over all it helps if they lose. More likely for a coaching change, and a better draft pick .

 

This game is win, win for me. Now if the Bears lose this one, I can't promise I won't root against them for a better pick vs. a meaningless win against a 4-11 team.

It is amazing how many yards Forte gains on cutbacks and runs to the outside, yet we run off tackle almost every run, lol.

Unfortunately it seems that is the only way for the change we need to compete with other teams that have moved ahead of us.

No, that's not actually what we want. You're just thinking of this in simple terms. The ideal situation is that they look like shit and somehow pull out a win. Best of both worlds.

 

The problem is, if they get wins it's how head coaches typically fight for their jobs.

 

I don't know how you can consider yourself a fan if you are satisfied with mediocrity year after year.

I just realized the QB that is having a decent game against the vaunted Bears defense is a guy I have literally never heard of.

Emery is watching these games too. He knows how bad we've looked since our 7-1 start and even though we are winning today, we look like crap.

Agreed. And, by the way, does Cutler have another concussion? His passing stinks so far.

Why the hell doesn't Hester call for a fair catch and move up to catch the freakin ball? wtf, just cut him at halftime.

Lovie is so great with challenges lol
