Terrible pass interference call on the offense there.

The one real weakness for the Bears is their secondary. But they compensate by putting a lot of pressure on the QB. the sixty-year-old Johnson won't have the mobility to move out of the way and his line won't contain the blitz.

So far you're prediction ain't bad.

****!

What was Childress doing calling a 30 yard catch there?

Jeremy Weimer · 09-24-2006, 04:21 PM

The third and fourth down play calling was about the dumbest **** I've seen all year.

There were a lot of head scratchers today. For whatever reason, Childress likes the 3rd and long runs. I think I gotta play Madden.

Jeremy Weimer · 09-24-2006, 05:08 PM

I can understand a run on maybe 3rd and 4. To run the ball on a 3rd and 7 when the game is on the line is absoutely stupid. The only thing I can think of is Childress figured it would be so off the wall and the Bears defense wouldn't be expecting it that he might be able to sneak one past them for the first down. In this case it didn't work so he looks like a major idiot.

He had a chance to redeem himself with the fourth down play and what does he do? Bombs it down the field for an attempt at a 20+ yard gain when all they needed was two yards. They didn't need a touchdown in this situation as a field goal would've forced overtime. It made no sense what-so-ever to go for a long pass like that.

Just got back. DAMNIT!

Okay, that Grossman is good

I'm still really frustrated. We had that won. Oh and that was some bad reffing out there today. It didn't win or lose the game thankfully, but it was really really really bad.

Can of Corn · 09-24-2006, 11:44 PM

its a win. We'll take it.

And MorseMoose, I was right on one prediction.... the Bears secondary is pretty weak.

. You better take it! You won't be getting a win like that later in the season...

Jeremy Weimer · 09-25-2006, 12:16 AM

Yeah, they'll destroy us.

In Solider Field? You're right. It won't be like today's game. It will actually be the 31-10 victory I originally posted.

Pfft. You wish.

We signed Drew Henson to our practice squad the other day.

Jeremy Weimer · 09-30-2006, 03:35 PM

That's not even news worthy.
