Thread: Forte missing at least a month.

This means he might miss only 3 games & be back for the Lions game which is after our bye week. That's what I'm hoping for anyway.

This may be a blessing in disguise . Forces the Bears to have more of a power running game approach ( which is something I think they need to do anyways ) and the blocking will be better for it in the long run ( hopefully ).

And Matt comes back rested and ready to carry the load the remaining portion of the season. I'm psyched to watch Bush - I think he's gonna be awesome .

To ME, it's the OL that will make the difference. Add in the game plan. Good game plan ,OL is average ,and Dallas and Detiolet are NP. BUT it's the elite teams I just don't see the Bears amtching up with, long term. Sure a game here one there, but they just might lose a WIN here and there so it evens out. The playoffs is , to ME, where it lies. Whats the point of getting to the BIG DANCE with a HOT DATE, only not to SCORE. IF the Bears can't make it to the SB, whats the point. I'd rather them have a better draft pick then fake it to the playoffs. They should have loss at Minny last year. What was the point you won , didn't make the playoffs and had a shittier pick. Add in the BU injury too.

We've gotta establish the running game early, and Bush is a good RB to do it with. Now if we can just get a quick pass game to match up, we'll have an o-line that isn't playing horribly. We don't need to come out in our big games trying to show our offensive muscles. Just showing that we can move the ball, and when we're at the red zone, scoring TD's instead of turnovers are all this team needs.
