It's GOOD to have too many W.R's !
Was that fun to watch or what?
Keeping in a T.E. and RB/FB at times to help the O.L. paid off.
We pretty much did what we wanted until players went to the sidelines for interviews.
Then those pesky Redskins took advantage of it while nobody was paying attention.
We still won. Cant knock anything about the game.
Took control early with AIRBALL and goofed off the rest of the time until we needed Gould to seal the deal.
That Cousins is a sneaky little shit for the Redskins. Never saw him coming.
He looked far better out there then RG3 did.
Ya everyone questioned them taking RGIII and Cousins, and now you're seeing why. If RG fails they have another young potential franchise guy; if RG doesn't then you got some serious trade bait in a few years.
What gets me is that we were basically taking the rest of the game off after coming out to an early lead ...
and then Cousins comes on the field and nobody on the BEARS side semed to notice the game was turning.
That cant happen during the regular season.
Hey what are we going to do with Summers?
The man has talent but is raw, do we park him on the practice squad?
Some other team could steal him.
Betwen Summers and Rachid Davis being back ...
I put the upside on Summers.
Summers looked like a rusty Randy Moss.
Given the proper guidence ... he could develop.
I want to see some more from Sanz. I'm a huge Sanz fan but right now during the games Summers is showing more.
Summers needs a fall, winter, and spring to season his talents before next summer's training camp and the 2013 season. Get him on the PS where he can get some reps which he won't get if you leave him one the 53 man roster as the #5 pr #6 WR.
Trust me on this one.

I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap.
Honey Badger Don't Care. Honey Badger Don't Give a Shit.
I think he would be a baller if it worked like that, but do you think he'll last on our PS? I think he'd be snatched up.Originally Posted by soulman

considering the locks at wr look to be Marshal, Jeffery, Hester, Bennett, and weams then we look at that final spot has to be imo between sanz and Summers. And most likely that last spot is inactive most of the season unless we are desperate and I hope to hell we dont get desperate. Would you risk losing Summers potential to keep Sans? I wouldnt but I guess it would be such an insiginificant move I wouldnt really care anyways lolSummers needs a fall, winter, and spring to season his talents before next summer's training camp and the 2013 season.

Speaking of one of those WR's:

Weems doing what it takes to contribute

Dennis Wierzbicki/US PresswireEric Weems' return abilities are known, but his receiving talents are impressing Bears' coaches.
LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Eric Weems arrived in Chicago with the reputation as a Pro Bowl-caliber special-teamer who the Bears could use in a variety of ways.
An all-around special teams performer, the Bears plan to pair Weems with Devin Hester to give the club a dynamic 1-2 punch on kickoff returns, while at the same time utilizing Weems' ability to be a sound tackler on the punt and kickoff teams. Weems had 41 regular season special teams tackles for Atlanta from 2008-2011. A former undrafted free agent out of Bethune-Cookman, Weems made the Pro Bowl in 2010 when he combined to run for 1,330 regular season return yards (punt and kickoff return) and two touchdowns. In the playoffs, Weems had a record 102-yard kickoff return in the divisional round against the Green Bay Packers.
However, Weems has proven to be a dependable target in the passing game so far in the preseason, catching two balls for 38 yards in the Bears' 33-31 victory over Washington. Weems caught 24 career passes for 205 yards and two touchdowns during his time in Atlanta.
"I take a lot of pride in everything I do," Weems said on Tuesday. "That's my DNA that I'm putting on film, so I go out and try to practice hard. When I practice hard, I play hard. So everything shows up on film.
"That's something I'd love to do and am passionate about playing. But I'm just coachable, so wherever the coaches need me that's where I'm going to be. I get a sense I'm going to get some opportunities. And when opportunities come knocking, I'm going to be there."
Weems made the most of his opportunities versus the Redskins when he connected with Jason Campbell for a 33-yard completion in the second quarter which turned out to be the Bears' third longest play from scrimmage that evening. But interestingly enough, Weems is still not completely recovered from an ankle injury he suffered early in camp, meaning Bears fans have yet to see the best of what the speedster has to offer.
"It was hard for me coming back and being able to play because before that I was missing a little time here and there," Weems said. "But it felt good to get out there on it. But it's tough. Even in the game I couldn't shift a gear like I wanted to and stop on a dime like I normally do because of that injury.
"I'm feeling pretty good. I'll be good to go. I'll be 100 percent by Week 1."
