That's better than last year when quarterbacks would have career days against us.

However, they were complete homers saying the Pats would win the last four games. They even made fun of a packer fan who called in and said that not only would the packers beat the Patriots by 10 points, but even though he would be rooting for the Pats, he said the Bears would beat them by 10 as well.

Strange. It's almost a complete paradox and paradigm shift for the Packers to say that we would beat New England by 10 points. Of course, the fan who said this won't be cheering for us for obvious reasons, but it's still interesting that he said that.

I do think that he is the type of coach that doesn't look past any team though, he's going to have that team as prepared as possible; and if there is a weakness their going to exploit the F out of it.

I agree. The Bears offense won't look past New England's defense. Remember, just because the Patriots only gave up 3 points to the Jets doesn't mean that all of their defensive ills have been cured. Remember now, it's just been two weeks since they gave up 24 points to Detroit. I would say that Martz will study the game film of both the Lions and Jets games carefully to see where the Pats have made corrections, no matter how major or subtle they may be.

The Pats haven't defend the pass very well all year. Even though Peyton Manning threw three interceptions against them a few weeks back, he still passed for around 400 yards and three or four touchdowns. There's no reason why we can't line up against New England and put some numbers of our own up against them.
