Thread: Chicago Bears vs. Minnisota Vikings

Anybody know whats going on ? FOX switched my feed to the TB-ATL game. Those scumbags.

Hit Dam! Sunday ticket fixed it... Ok crisis relieved

That was a weird play. 2nd review going on. Knees look down.

Forte looked like his knees got bent back bad!!! Hope he is ok!

Lets take this win as a bounceback and hope Forte is ok.

Bush did ok today. So did Bennett.

We seem to have gotten an above average number of players knocked out of the game today.

But others stepped up.

Lets hope for a speedy recovery for all.

NICK ROACH led in tackles with 6. Forced a fumble.

PODLESH avg. 43.3 yds. punting.

MARSHALL and BENNETT combined for 138 yds.

SPAETH scored a TD.

E-ROD caught a ball for 11 yds.

JCUT was sacked 1 time.

BUSH and FORTE combined for 102 yds. BUSH got 2 TD's.

WEEMS avg. 21 yds. on kickoff returns.

TOTAL FIRST DOWNS ... 23

THIRD DOWN EFFICIENCY ... 11/19 ... 57%

After the last few weeks we turned a corner back to winning.

BTW ... we also blocked a FG.

That was lame, I was at work recorded the game not a chicago station so I was good, just watched it. Bears seem to always start a little sloppy, but once some muckiness irons out they kick in. I tend to think after monday's loss a lot of thinking went on for the game plan with a lot of adjustments. The surprise 2 point conversion was a flying decision, it was a very alertly played game, that conversion could easily been a game difference win, as things went it wasn't needed but you never know, go for it. Cutler again shows a change from last year with some laser throws, you just can be throwing hail mary's and expect a win. He was spreading the talent around and that got other players into recieveing than just Marshall. That helped make the win, great catch in the endzone. Marshall has also been doing some good laser catches. There was a lot of snip moment plays that worked. And it took laser accurate throws to work. This is how Erin Rodgers was killing the bears last year we had to get in the game, now I want that rematch back. A number of key starter injuries but the backups kicked in in great shape. I like Devon Hester but he's better for the kicking return. because he was out allowed other talent to step forward. I think because of Hester's abilities the opponent is learning how to defend about it, he needs a break, rework a little and come back a little different and maybe better. We may chatter about Tillman and ball stripping but this game wasn't so much about stripping than being keeping the game in control and keeping the ball in control, keeping the game in control and keeping the opponent offense off the field. For a while I was seeing raw 85 bears play. There were no defensive touchdowns, few or no strips that really made a game difference, it was more flatout Bears style play. the injuries might not be super serious they may all be back for sure, lets hope short, a good team gamed win. Don't hold your breath on Seattle, despite the record they have talent, you don't play your game, they will take you out. DaBears
