If the Bears don't make the the playoffs

Featured Replies

LeSean McCoy is my favorite non bears player to watch, and I've grown fond of Nick Foles (He's like Josh McCown, only better, and not old) so even though I don't think their defense is good enough, I'll be rooting for them (Should they make it).

 

No need to root for someone else. We'll make it.

 

Who are you rooting for?

 

I'm all in for the Panthers. Go Chico.

Bengals, because I am from Ohio, and then Denver because of Manning. There's not a better role model or offensive mind in football in my opinion, he deserves a 2nd Super Bowl ring for playing at such a high level at his age while being hurt.

I can't cheer for him because he's absolutely ruining fantasy football this year.

If it isn't us I'll root for whoever is playing the Lions or Packers. After that I'll just watch the games for enjoyment. I can't sleep until those two teams are eliminated.

Right with ya...

Lol, well I will have a 2 to 3 weeks after my league is over to get that taste out of my mouth. I'll be up against him next week in my local league's semi finals.

Nice angle. And I'll agree.

 

If the team comes and plays inspired tonight and they win, I predict they will make the playoffs. This is a big stage tonight . Not just for "survivor" status in the playoffs, but prime time (don't want to be embarrassed), Ditka's retirement, at home, BearFan 2000 and his dad will be there, and much more inspiration. Ditka even called out the team...maybe he'll be roaming the sidelines?

 

This is it....win or done.

100%!

 

We've had so many bad karma games of these kinds...it's time for the pendulum to swing the other way! We must and will kick ass! As coach would have wanted!

If we win tonight chances are good,if not, I would like us to lose all our games and get a better draft pick. Although after game is not good for me if we lose, it is like I get the flu, it just makes me feel bad.

I don't get how "fans" can ever think this way. No matter what.

I understand but can't bring myself to do it. I always root for a W despite it being "smarter" to root the other way, at times.

I dunno, I support taking a knee at the end of a game when I'm winning even though it doesn't produce positive yards. I support running out the clock, even not going to a long 3rd down to punt instead.

 

I don't feel strongly either way, but I can understand rooting for a strategic gain even if it means a tactical loss. We all want to see the Bears become a dominant team. I really do think Trestman and Emery are on a good path.

It's simple. The goal is to win the Superbowl. If we can't make the playoffs, then I want to do whatever we can to make it easier to win the Superbowl the next year or as soon as possible. A better draft pick, to me, can help to achieve that goal.
