December 7, 200718 yr So is there ANYWHERE the Bears don't need upgrades on for the offensive side of the ball (and that's including coaching staff).
December 7, 200718 yr QUOTE(fathom @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 08:39 PM) I hate you Brian Griese. Put Orton in. I don't ever want to see BG in a Bears uniform ever again after this season.

I'd love to see how any of these pieces could do with an actual Offensive line. I'd love to have seen how Grossman could have performed, with Benson behind him and these receivers, if they had an O-Line that was performing well. It's always struck me as remarkable how many deficiencies a good O-Line can mask. Except for Griese. Seriously, don't you bench him after that one?

The OLine is 100% the reason for the offenses failures this year. Well that and Turner has had a terrible year.
December 7, 200718 yr I dont even want to hear the "we cant switch them out until the 4th quarter" bull#### from Lovie. Griese looks like he went out boozing and was surprised to hear his number called.

He was hard to evaluate without a line, running game, and one legit reciever (Moose is old and slow). In terms of draft need from least to most urgent TE C WR QB (I have to hear a prognosis on Grossman first. If he's done for the season, this is higher/lower) T RB G

I don't care who your O-coordinator is, if your O-Line can't create holes for a running back or keep the D off of your QB, then your coordinator is going to look horrible. Not to excuse anything, but seriously, if your options are "Run for 1-2 yards or have the QB drop back and have a 33% chance of having him sacked/hit", you figure out how to make that work.

December 7, 200718 yr jesus... The Bears are bad, but you've got to call a block in the back on that play
December 7, 200718 yr QUOTE(fathom @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 07:41 PM) Enjoy Griese and his dump off passes. I don't enjoy Chicago Bears football
December 7, 200718 yr QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 07:01 PM) I don't enjoy Chicago Bears football Right now, does anyone? Except their opponents that is.

December 7, 200718 yr QUOTE(fathom @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 09:03 PM) I meant to ask you, why do you like the Patriots? Success, and I love Belichick's attitude. I love Brady's cool style -- if I'd been alive and grown in the 80s, I'd have been a Bears fan because of how nasty that defense is but I'd have certainly shifted to the 49ers because of Joe Cool. I just love cold, sustained success and excellence. I love that Bill Belichick doesn't allow the league to tell him what to do; I love his hoodie (it's the only material wish I have for this Christmas); I love his coy treatment of the media. And I have a lot of things in common with Belichick that I won't get into. When I was a kid, I didn't really care for the Bears. I loved the Broncos, back in the Elway days. I enjoyed the Packers a little. I really enjoyed last year's team until it became clear to me that they were a fluke but damn, that defense was good for awhile.
December 7, 200718 yr I've liked New England since about Year Two of the Brady era, but much more intensely in the last two years as I've started to enjoy and research the game of football.
