in fact, the truth of the matter, is that i saw positives and negatives to both situations (green bay winning or losing) and it didn’t much matter what i was rooting for because i don’t have too much control over the outcome. does the thought of playing the packers on january 23rd bother me? you bet…it makes me sick actually. that said, i want to see the bears get to the NFC Championship game this year and we’ll all deal with the outcome when it’s all over.

not to get optimistic on anyone here but if the Bears get past the ‘hawks and do get to play the packers on january 23rd, could you imagine what a win would feel like? i wouldn’t mind having the chance to find out.

Now pretty please with sugar on top, sign safety Roy Williams.

1)The bears need veteran leadership at that position (developing Steltz).

2)Very thin draft class at the safety position this year.

3)Even in pass coverage, he is an upgrade over the Strong Safety’s Chicago has now.

4)He has been durable.

5)Roy Williams is a superior tackler, something Chicago didn’t have at that position every time Mike Brown left the field.

6)At 28 he still has a ton of football left in the tank.

7)HE HITS REAL,REAL HARD!!

Further, I think YOU blew it in 2005 with 10 total fumbles; not to mention 4 in one game.

Ba-bye.

He is sucking the air out of the team and this soft squishy defense scheme isn’t working. They need to get back to what got them to the dance in the first place. Wheres the pressure on the qb? Where is the pass rush? Wheres the “up in your face” style of play?

Devon Hester is Done a returns receiver. Keep him on offense. The League has his number and hes isn’t producing.

Today was a sad and miserable day for Bear fans and this should light a fire under Lovie’s rear end to kick Babich in the rear or have him fire his sorry butt and get someone that has some fire in his belly and uses an aggressive defensive scheme as opposed to crap in one hand and hope in the other.

In typical recent history type form, the Bears allowed the momentum to swing back to the Panthers. The first Olson fumble, the inaccurate passes from Orton and, surprisingly to me, the inconsistency defensively. Now, I’ll give the D a partial pass because they had to live on the field in the second half. However, when you are the catalyst that makes the team go, back a play when you need to.

I agree, 1-1 after two tough road games would have been a “win” to any Bears fan 3 weeks ago; but now, it seems ugly and grueling. I hope some more readers have some comments too. I’m really looking forward to hearing what you all think.

But a rube is a rube (is a rube)

The key factors last night were the defense unit and the Orton-Forte combo.These two seemed to click.

I really can^t wait to see how we stack up against the Panthers who also beat the Chargers on the road.

Our goal was to go 1-1 on this two game stretch but if we get similar performances(not everyday is Christmas) we can beat the Panthers.

Go Bears!!!

Rex came in that Atlanta game,threw a few passes and all of a sudden the offense moved and the crowd loved it,but the defense from that game and on was less intense because with Kyle Orton they knew they were going to be on the field therefore they had to put more effort.

The question is would they have held up?I think so.
Kyle despite being a rookie that year and leading the Bears to many victories for the second spot of the NFC North just hit the rookie wall that day against Atlanta.Of course the crowd booing you doesn’t help but the fans were making a statement also.On the other hand the defense took pride by playing its game and holding opponents to an average of 9.sth points.

Going back to that season Kyle had 3 really bad games(Bengals,Packers and Falcons).Other than those games for a rookie ,game management was very good and i nthe end the Bears found ways to win.

But all Lovie had to see was Muhammad yelling at Ortons face for not making a right choice.If Mushin was a cool veteran he shouldve taken Orton aside and explain.The writing was on the wall for Orton that year.

Had the Bears had Orton for than Carolina playoff game noway do the Bears lose in Soldier field.He wouldve managed the game to a low scoring game,where the Bears are good at,and not catch up be cause the D would^ve been on its heels all day long.

Now,all I hope is for Kyle to show his real talent and football instincts and Im sure he will manage the games even better now.
