So that's clearly advanatge for the Bears.
I mean lets be honest...the offense the Bears brought against the Packers in '10 - '11 was no serious threat. Things are very different now though.
You make it sound as if Tice is installing a scheme no one has ever seen before. Like he's inventing an entirely new type of offense. Like he's bringing some all new shit that NO ONE in the ENTIRE HISTORY OF THE NFL has ever seen before! Really?Quote:

Pretty sure Dom Capers has game planned for new offensive coordinators and teams running new schemes before.
And last I checked, the Packers are working on fixing their defense. You act as if we're just spinning our wheels while the Bears have done nothing but get better everywhere. We have young talented players getting their reps in no different than any other team in the NFL.
And last, but certainly not least, a good chunk of your posts come back to the same theme: the Bears are better. The Bears have equaled/surpassed the Packers/this team/that team! The Bears offense will be super amazing this season! Blah blah blah, all the while this new super amazing Bears offense has yet to take a snap in an NFL game yet this season thus you have nothing to base it on. I have no doubt Tice is a step up from Martz (honestly, who wouldn't be? I said he was a horrible hire from the start), but lets wait until the rubber meets the road before we crown their asses, ok?

So the rest of your post is full of a lot of words but is total shit.
And don't forget to give me a positive rep point.
Right, and you came right back and said it was an advantage for the Bears, your point being?Quote:

A new Bears offense loaded with talent, unlike in previous years, is an advantage for CHI. This is elementary.Quote:

A new Bears offense loaded with talent that you nor anyone else has seen play in the new scheme. Players will still be learning the nuances of said scheme through a good part of the early season. An advantage for Chicago over their offense last season? Sure. An offense where you hike Cutler the ball and have everyone run in random directions would be an upgrade over that. However until the bullets fly for real and everyone proves to be on the same page it's nothing but speculation.Quote:

That's because anything can and will happen. There is no better rivalry in all of sports. Tickets won't be cheap.Quote:
