Don't leave out Evans a.k.a Offensive Rookie of the Year.
Ugh I hate this, dude had Brandon Weeden throwing to him. Fucking skins robbed us out of a legit game. I would of loved to see Dez and Peterson matchup with Romo back there.Jnc awesome response. Peterson did cover him for the vast vast majority of the game, however. He also followed Dez everywhere so yes, eliteI already complained we weren't letting him follow Calvin all over before the game but glad it worked out to where he was on Calvin most of it anyway.

Still like the Bears chances. Dallas has a tough schedule, including the Bears. The Bears hold the head to head tie breaker with San Fran should it come to that and Dallas as well should the Bears win out and make 10-6. Seattle is probably due a couple more losses playing in a tough division(Still gotta play SF and Arizona twice, plus Philly and STL) and the Bears will probably have a better conference record against them(Seattle has 2 losses at the moment, Bears 3 which it would have to remain). If the Bears can beat Detroit twice and hold off a farewell Adrien Peterson peformance(if he's back) to end the season they should be in.The NFC South is garbage. So who's left? No one...Bears are in. Just gotta beat Detroit a couple of times. Hopefully, GB's game against Detroit to end the season is worth something to them so their starters play. Arizona doing well should keep the pressure on GB to get the #1 seed. Philly too to make sure GB at least gets a bye...but since they have the h2h over Philly that might not be as important...so Arizona needs to be a game ahead or tied with GB going into the final game. Detroit is looking to me to only finish with 9 wins...with possible wins over TB and Min.
We're slightly better than the Raiders...
You're only a cornerback, left tackle, running back, and second wide receiver away from being good again. That may be a lot, but I trust in Gettleman, especially with some extra cap space coming your way. I've liked his drafting the past two years.

The Lions have to hope for a wild card so they can play one of these under .500 scrubs from the NFC South in the 1st round.
Stafford can't beat a team with a winning record, so this is the only way the Lions win a playoff game.

I don't think people realize that GB's pass defense has been very good this year. It's resembling their last SB run...

Yeah but it's so far north it's more like VA.

And you're lucky the Raiders don't play the Steelers this season, because they'd be off the schneid.
We only beat you because it was early in the season and people thought you were the 2013 Panthers. If we played you now we'd lose in embarrassing fashion.

I think we win tonight. I think we split with the Bengals. I think we split (though we shouldn't) with the Saints & Falcons. Which means the Chiefs game determines if we go 10-6 or 9-7. Either way I'm going to assume that we're out of the playoffs so that we can point at the shitty performances against TB and the Jest. Just like the Titans and Raiders last year.
Ugh.
The two biggest changes to this team from the last couple of years is Ha Ha Clinton Dix adding stability and physicality to the safety position and Corey Linsley turning out to be awesome.
If writers didn't jerk off to garbage time receiver yards, Linsley would be a legitimate offensive rookie of the year candidate. He is grading out as the fourth best Packers offensive player every single week.
Bears are dead last in points given up Dallas is 9th in points. The bears d is shit Murray gonna run roughshod over them and Romo is gonna pick them apart. A healthy oline ensures Murray gonna eat and Romo stays clean.

Best QB who had one elite season three seasons ago in the NFL, thank you very much!

Here an interesting piece of information. Peyton Manning plays poorly against the Rams(of all teams)and they lose. You probably will lose when your best player doesn't play very well. Makes sense right? The Brady bunch play the Colts (considered one of the best teams in football)and they win! The most telling part is that Brady, like Manning, didn't play very well and he team still came out on top. Luck played well, but nobody else on the Colts came to play.
When your team and coaching is superior, your star QB doesn't have to play at a high level. The Patriots organization continue to show that they know how to build COMPLETE teams and systems. Belichick and the rest of his staff find ways to get the best out of players with average talent. The exceptions being Gronk and Revis
I love my Colts, but I think very few players on this team believe in Grigson and Pagano. I wouldn't be surprised if Luck doesn't re-sign with us at the end of the season. Luck's in his third year and continues to hear things and comparisons to Manning, filling shoes, 2-14...He'd probably rather play for a team that has been average for the better part of ten years and have never had any GOAT discussion type of QBs.

He's always played well in the slot corner position (even more so than normal this year)...it is when he is pressed to play on the edges due to injuries or other factors that he tends to struggle.

Considering the low amount of points for, that's actually pretty impressive. Seriously, 26th in scoring offense, and the defense manages to hold opponents 32 points below that? Not bad.
I'm still pointing back to my post this morning. I really think the offense needs to be re-evaluated. Wish I could find stats on the short/intermediate throws.

Yeah, very confusing space here. Gif of the play in question.
Advocates of the official's ruling are saying "If it's in possession of the kicking team then the ball is dead," and that looks like possession by that player.. Not batted back, etc, so the ball should be at the 1 yard line. HOWEVER. We all know that if that Cardinals player possessed the ball and then proceeded to fall backwards into the endzone, then that would be a touchback, not down at the 1-yard-line... As he backpedals into the endzone.
ALSO, the Cards player had a foot in the endzone prior to possessing the ball, and while he did establish himself outside of the endzone, I'm confused whether that should be a touchback or not. I forget how that is ruled.
What's also confusing is that this certainly looks like possession of the football, not just "touching" the football.
Definitely a confusing ruling that erased a huge swing in the game. Personally, I think in cases like that when the rules are ambiguous and it's something that very rarely happens, that the ruling on the field should persist.
Other than turnovers teams with the highest differential between their defensive passer rating and their QB's passer rating basically win a shit ton of games. I believe your D coordinator looks at the same thing. Cold Hard Football facts did research and said that is the most important statistic they found throughout history in regards to winning games.

You don't have to worry about losing Luck. He's going to be a Colt for life, unless he finds himself getting Manning'd for another young stud in fifteen years.
Both a Patriots fan and an Eric Andre fan? Bread, you're a star.

This is remarkably optimistic for a Bears fan, and hinges on the Bears -- tied for last place in their division -- winning four games against opponents who are all tied for first place in their respective divisions.
If the Bears win out, sure, they'd have a decent shot at the playoffs, as any 10 - 6 team does. But... right now, Tampa Bay at 2-8 has better playoff prospects than the Bears at 4-6 do.

RE DirecTV i've only had one game go out cause of weather and that was the Redskins game this year, but what was odd is that it was barely raining.
holy shit, epic.
who has the best defensive line that has a reasonable shot of making the playoffs?
yes yes, the browns were 28th in rush defense, lets not cum all over ourselves here.

Arrington has been great this year, I hope Ryan or Dennard can get better. It seems they are going with Ryan over Dennard though.

Mike Evans is really really good.
Which means he'll have the patented 2nd year fall off that all great Bucs offensive rookies have.
