I hope this is a start to high scoring this year for the Bears. They could average 30 points a game easy; unfortunately, their D could give up 35.

Cutler didn't have the sexy numbers, but his TD/INT ratio stands at 8:5 heading into the bye which is very good especially since that 4 INT game. In 3 consecutive games now, he's had a 100+ QB Rating, and 7 TDs and 1 INT in those last 3 games.

 

And just from an outsider looking in, I love Stafford's potential. If he can work on those deep throws which will come with experience (showed flashes though) he will be a pain in the ass for the North for a long time. Hopefully that knee injury he suffered isn't too serious cause that'll be a crippling blow to the Lions org. if he misses a long time, especially with experience.

Didn't need any sexy numbers cause the field position the Bears had all game was just ridiculous.

Its nice to actually capitalize on that for a change instead of going 3-out or just getting a FG every time

 

And please, for the love of god, run Wolfe to the OUTSIDE. Running a 5 foot tall RB up the middle into a forest of 400lb dudes is god damn retarded.

Bye Wade Phillips

It took like 15 seconds to clock the ball there for Dallas.

This.

 

Why the f*** are you throwing at Champ Bailey? Repeatedly! Romo needs to get his s*** together ASAP. Actually this entire team looked like a sorority girl at last call, sloppy.

 

I'm tired of watching this team gift wrap wins already.

The only problem is, that Wolfe has never shown the ability on the NFL level to be able to get around the corner while going east to west.

Broncos points allowed in their first four games: 7, 6, 3, 10. Who knew that Cutler was going to be taking a significant step down in class in terms of the defense supporting him when he was traded to the Bears? At any rate, good timing of the Bears bye because they are beat up right now. They've had a nice bounce back to the opening night debacle as well.

He did today, and I don't think he's ever gotten the chance to do it. 100% of the plays to Wolfe to should be toss/pitches or screen passes.

Where was Witten on those last two plays? The Cowboys ran the same slant plays. Did they think Bailey couldn't defend it twice?

Turner never calls plays for him to do that.

Being a niche player like Wolfe with Ron Turner as your offensive coordinator=death since using a niche player properly means intelligence and/or creativity must be involved.

god the Bills are so bad. Dick Jauron's ass is hot right now

I don't know what the Bills were expecting...

 

He's the same mediocre coach who got fired in Chicago.

I guess they were expecting something better than this. It did take Belichick till his second team to become a stud (and that is the last time I'm ever going to compare Jauron to Belichick). They apparently thought they saw something good.

 

I told TRU that I give them till 2-5. It might happen sooner than that. I believe they've now lost atleast 8 games in a row within the division, and they obviously looked absolutely awful today, and that's two weeks in a row. I don't see them winning 6 games at this point. And I'm quietly hoping for Cowher or Shanahan.

Actually this was his 3rd team. He grabbed some of the Lions magic when he took over on an interim basis. They actually improved while he coached them, IIRC. It wasn't the worst idea in the world to bring him in when he took over. But they've just held on too long; he flat out doesn't do the job of taking players and turning them in to a winning football team at all. That team just expects to lose every time out.

 

Buffalo isn't shelling out for Cowher, and probably not for Shanahan either. At least not until they're in L.A. Schottenheimer might be the kind of guy that might fit as a retread; guy who's been out for a couple of years who isn't in heavy demand and thus can be had more cheaply.

Perhaps they could give Frank Reich a shot at coaching.

 

He's the Colts' QB coach right now.

Who's b****ing, the Bears just won by 3 touchdowns. Up until halftime the b****ing was warranted.

Everyone is. People are saying Roach sucks. Are you kidding? He played a great game. Who cares how many points Detroit scored? The Bears scored 24 more.

I am on the side of giving Detroit some credit. They have some pretty good weapons and stafford made some pretty good throws.

 

Kudos to the second half play calling by Lovie on the 2nd half. Nice situational pressure in the 2nd half.

Troy anytime you want to stop being a pansy and rejoin the team would be good.

And just as I say that from earlier, Stafford might have a dislocated right knee cap.. Ouch.
