Brandon Lloyd and Nathan Vasher

have just been scratched. Hester and Graham are starting.

Being Who You Thought We Were Since 2005!

by Adam T on Oct 12, 2008 10:51 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Vasher

said on Friday that he expected to play and Lovie said he’d be available. Brad Biggs thinks this means the Bears don’t think they need him.

by Twins Territory on Oct 12, 2008 11:16 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

No need to rush Vasher back against

an Atlanta team who doesn’t have big time WRs.
This gives him an extra week of rest with the bye next week.

Besides Graham did pretty well last week against the Lions

he’s made like 4 tackles 1 yard past the 1st down already today.

by HesterSteals1st on Oct 12, 2008 12:33 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

yeah

i believe it was the tampa game when the announcers remarked how great he was because he was leading the team in tackles…what they forget is the way cornerbacks lead the team in tackles is by letting the damn receiver catch the ball all day.

by lopey986 on Oct 12, 2008 12:34 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Ryan.

needs to be hit a few more times. Maybe a sack? nono. that’s crazy talk.
