I hope the Lions lost tonite simply so we can see what this team does with their destiny in their own hands. I mean, if they win out, that could play pretty big going into the playoffs. I know momentum is as good as your next play, but we have seen teams every year go on runs into the playoffs and carry it through.

We have to hope that the addition of Briggs and maybe Tillman in the playoffs would help stop the run a little. Ratcliff seems to be improving the d-line. Safeties are still awful though. They'll have to score their way through the playoffs. Can you do that on the road at Seattle?

 

Changing the subject for a second, I defend Tony Romo a lot but the fact that he changed from a run to a pass on that last drive is unbelievably stupid. And now the coaching staff and the players are just throwing everyone and anyone under the bus besides themselves. Fantastic.

as of right now, wouldnt you love to have that chance? Basically you are saying the Bears win their first playoff game(which right now would be against the Panthers or 49ers)

Well that's what I get for relying on Fox sports insights.

 

I only know because I was streaming the game on my computer for fantasy football purposes lol. He beat him on a real good double move. Announcers couldn't believe that Haden got beaten so badly so close to the endzone.

I love the Niners and Panthers but it'd be interesting to see how they perform in Chicago on that thing the Bears call a football field.

Haden is a fantastic player but I've seen him get burned quite a few times this year.

The answer here is probably not but it's not impossible.

 

I love love love Marshawn Lynch but he has fumbling issues, if they are somehow beat at home it'll probably be because of that. I don't see their defense or Wilson losing them a game.

If Carolina takes care of business at home, it would be the Saints as the wild card.

I would love to get another shot at them, with cold weather. The Bears offense is a completely different beast now

Yup, good call. And honestly, I'd rather see the Saints than Panthers in the playoffs if I were a Bears fan.

I'm not going to reserve my playoff tickets yet. Bears Eagles game will be terrifying. Best rushing team in league vs. Worst rushing team? That'll be a whole lot of not fun to watch (I had to suffer through Mizzou Auburn on the Mizzou side)

Over/Under at 70?

Over/Under at 70?

It's actually 55.5, which looks like a gift from the heavens.

Over/Under at 70?

The Bears have a huge weakness in reading rushing attacks, and the Eagle will compound that with option and misdirection. Its going to be ugly.

At Soldier Field, I agree. I'd much rather play at Carolina than in the Superdome though. (Not that we need to look that far ahead)

Saints are averaging 33 points a game at home and 18 on the road.

 

 

I have a feeling the Panthers beat them up pretty good next week.

Bostic may as well just run in circles, he may accidentally run into McCoy more times than if he actually tries to read the ball.

No way. Seattle is insane at home. They destroyed both New Orleans and San Francisco here. Least points allowed, least yards allowed and they get a ton of turnovers on their defense.

Bears Eagles will be a crazy shoot out

The Broncos were a lock to beat the Ravens last year. Crazy s*** happens in the playoffs

I really just want the Bears to get into playoffs. That will be a successful season for me. Not only will it mean we fought our way and won out, but it means the Lions hilariously choked their best chance for the playoffs in years.

I realize anything can happen but the Bears winning at Seattle is a pipe dream. Keep getting excited about squeaking by the likes of Cleveland.

I honestly think he will be a good to very good MLB at some point in the NFL, but his inexperience shows over and over when he picks the wrong gap. The guy has experience defending the read option offense, so maybe thats his specialty?

Per Pro Football Reference the Cowboys had a 99.7% chance to win at half time yesterday.

 

Only Tony Romo and the Cowboys could over come those odds.
