Chicago Bears VS. St. Louis Rams - Second Half Game Thread

We're up 24-3. Nothin else needs to be said.

Forte has 88 yards on 10 carries with 2 TD's. It also averages out to 8.8 ypc, so to those of you who are complaining, shove that in your pipe.

The Rams look really bad, so this one is as good as done barring a monumental collapse.

What's the story with Craig Steltz

has Payne really played that good that the kid can’t get a chance to show what he can do?

didn’t get great reviews in camp, oe when he was in fro bronw a couple weeks ago.

Thanks

I hadn’t heard much about him since the draft. I remember after the draft that there was a lot of people thinking he would be the first player of this class to make an impact besides Forte

I think Payne's played decent

considerin this is his first season starting a substantial amount of games

Cmon

Payne is brutal.. Plays too far off the line and is late to the ball constantly.

by tfrabotta on Nov 23, 2008 1:46 PM CST up reply actions  

He's a strong safety dude

biggest support comes in the run game. I admit he’s disappointed me in some situation, but realize it’s like his 12th or 13th game starting. What makes u think Steltz would be SO much better than him?

or catching passes in front of him?? remember the titans game?? He plays too deep and can’t correct it.

thats technique which CAN be corrected

he’s tied for the team lead in tackles. AFTER our secondary couldn’t tackle a damn thing last yr.
