Thread: What we learned

Cutler connected on 20 of his next 25 passes, with Brandon Marshall (nine catches, 119 yards and a TD) the primary recipient. Marshall would have posted even gaudier stats without a couple of drops, including one in the end zone. He had the same inconsistency issues when playing for Miami.

Once again it is how bad the competiton is and not how good the Bears are. Typical, glad to hear all the love

Fine with me. Hear that GB? We suck, so I wouldn't worry too much about the Bears on Thurs. Matter of fact, take the week off.

Oline looks improved and Jeffery is the real deal as far as an immediate impact

A bit worried about the defense but they'll come around

Shea looked as useless as I thought he'd be even is passing downs other than a few early bursts...

Shane had one hit on Luck during the first half then had that neutral zone penalty and got in the dog house for a while.
It was not a good game for him, but to be fair it is not like he had a ton of snaps... Damn rookies.

meanwhile, the other rookie, Alshon Jeffery, who is a WR and expected to take a few years to become fully acclimented was tearing it up. Stop making excuses for a situational 1st round pass rusher who struggled agianst a bad OL to even pass rush.

Ric... Check my avatar it's nuts. Stop being so negative towards a situational 1st round pass rusher who still has not been asked much even against a bad OL. I don't feel the need to stop defending McClellin right now.

meanwhile, the other rookie, Alshon Jeffery was great to watch. I agree, he was tearing it up. Did better this week than all the rookie receivers besides the one drafted two picks ahead of him (S.Hill).

A, he's asked to do 1 thing, against a group that wasn't that good, and he did it poorly. McCellin again, when the OL got their hands one him was useless, high motor or not; it's not going to get easier from here either.

He might get better, and I hope he does, but it won't be to suprising if he ends up more like bauzine(out of the league) then Freeney(one of the best speed rushers in the league). And w/the first round pick Emery was hoping for a Freeney.
