I am sure you are a Mensa member, bench press 3000 pounds, date supermodels, and fill in for James Bond on weekends. #internetsuperheo

No actually 220 lbs... bench 235... and i am dating a hottie... but willing to fill in as your daddy... #internetgradeschoolteacher

Referees really screwing us over right now. How that was not a hold is beyond me. Unacceptable to miss these calls.

I normally don't say this about other players, but I would not care one bit if that idiot tore his knee up. Absolutely no reason for him to be head hunting the way he does. It's ridiculous.

Thats why he keeps changing teams, not very bright.

Thank God we have a bye next week , we need time to heal.

Way to many questionable calls by the officials.

game over

Defense can't stop anybody. This would be a bad loss against a bad team, despite all the injuries.

oh well , played well for lots of injuries. as a team

Thanks for the comedy.

All they needed was one stop, and they couldn't get it. Offense did it's job.

It's all my fault guys, I sat Cutler for the first time in the talkbears league, and I also started Jordan Reed.

D is most disappointing.

It does raise the question that perhaps a more traditional pocket passer with some mobility is more ideal?

 

Yeah I think WCO plays more to the conservative approach. Which is not Cutlers style. McCown showed the team is not that bad off with Cutler out. He's not nearly the risk taker Jay is.

We already know the defense isnt any good, and then lose Tillman and Briggs, just didnt bold well for a win. Encouraged by our offense and special teams.

Im on the band wagon to blame you.

Redskins are trash. They are lucky they won. Injuries + bad defense + awful 2nd half officiating = win for them. But wtf was McCown doing checking the ball down on that 2nd attempt? You have one timeout left. THROW THE BALL DOWNFIELD. You have three receivers over 6'3. You probably aren't going to win anyways, but at least give them a chance. Horrible job at the end to take a sack.

 

If there is one thing I know now after this game is that the Bears are either a really really bad team w/o Cutler or they are, at best, a one and done playoff team with him. The defense is bad enough as it is, but the injuries make them one of the worst, if not thee worst, D in the entire league.

 

Bottom line, as I said at the beginning of the season, they had the talent to win 10 or 11 games this year if they stayed healthy. With injuries, they might be an 8 or 9 win team. It sucks, but that's the NFL. It takes a lot of luck, and the Bears just don't have any.

One in 16 games, thats a bold prediction. We needed it thou.

 

Uhm they've only played 7 games this year. When I said it, it was after someone (probably you) said Hester was "done".

 

And how about that McCown? What did you say about him?

McCown had a 119.6 QB rating and lead 4 scoring drives in a half of football with out preparing to start. I wouldn't say the Bears are a really really bad team w/o Cutler.

 

The D was bad with out most their starters, that's about all I saw.

You really think he can hold that up week after week after teams get more film on him? They also won't be playing the Redskins defense every week either, so I have to take that into account.

Maybe not, but I didn't see anything today that indicated that the team would self destruct with out Cutler.

Agreed. McCown played smart and has a tendency to do that. All he needs are good players; Marshall, Bennett and Forte and he'll turn out fine.

 

My next "bold" prediction; Cutler is done in Chicago.

I agree, Trestman was able to open up the playbook more with McNown, which leads me to believe either Cutler can't handle it mentally or wont handle it because of an attitude.

 

The offense had more flow and McNown was able to make better pre snap reads.

Forte put the team on his back and McCown played well and you have to tip his cap because he's prepared. It was also against a sieve of a defense and the Redskins weren't prepared for McCown which could help. If we have to go an extended period of time with McCown, we are in trouble.

The offense did seem to open up a lot more with McCown at QB over Cutler, which seemed odd. They ran more screens today than they have all season combined. I don't know if that was the plan going into the game, or because they didn't want McCown to have to throw the ball down field like Cutler is capable of doing.

If Culter does not play another snap this year, I would say he is done. No way you can give a big contract to someone who can't stay healthy.

 

Peace
