I'm guessing the game is one of the TBA NFL games on this site:
Don't question my choice of teams, or I will have to go all troll on you.
if anybody....
finds out that the Bears game is on channelsurfing.net, please let us know. Thanks
Bear Down, Chicago Bears!
I'm looking for some big showings at WR and QB, these decisions need to be made sooner rather then later
I also hope Forte continues to show improvement.
heaading out
to witness this debacle in a couple hours, hopefully it’s not a complete joke.
Is Monk playing today?
I don’t remember seeing him last week.
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
He played in the 4th Quarter
and last I heard he was likely to get cut. Too bad too, because if he was quicker there would be a spot for him I bet. I am looking forward to this game too I hope the offensive picture becomes more clear.
Bold Prediction: Orton will be the starter in week 1.

really?
i heard bradley is likely the odd man out.
I cannot find the Radio Broadcast link
on ChicagoBears.com and WBBM only refers me to the Bears site, can someone help me out here?

I don't think they put them on the internet, just on the radio.
At least that is the way it is for regular season games.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
No I found it
The listen live link is on Bears.com but now the channel says it isnt available.

Bennet dropped another pass he should of had at the first down marker.
Then the line let guys all over Rex instantly. 3 and out.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
I'm only gonna say this once...
…but you’re right. Our O-line is shit, and Brady couldn’t make us good. Still no excuse, because Rex is JA’s and LS’ “guy.” But you finally got it out of me.
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
Thanks, it is such a relief for someone to admit that. I can take the beating now from everyone else this year.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Sorry
I’m a stubborn asshole…..it’s the German/Bohemian in me. But I’ll admit when I’m wrong, and I was real wrong. I will never, and I mean never, let JA or LS off the hook for the shitty excuse of an O-line we have this year.
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
Wait till our first OL goes down this year and a backup goes in.
Kruetz is suppose to not be fully healthy, man what if he or Tait went down?
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Minus that pick...
…we haven’t been playing worth a shit. Hasselbeck isn’t that good to pick our zone all day.
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
If it had been Hasselbeck
it wouldn’t be quite as depressing…

Lovie loves what he sees in everyone.
I used to drink his Kool-Aid, and then I grew up. lol
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
Thats the Grossman we all know.
The mental midget strikes again.
Keep making excuses for his bad play
He is a turnover machine.
I'm all for calling Grossman a mental midget...
…because at times, he doesn’t deserve to go out there. That last time, he got hit. But, to be fair, he should’ve seen it coming.
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
Rex is so terrible.

but yeah, our line is even worse

do you think lovie can ask holmgren to stop blitzing
please…pretty please
While we're at it...
Is it too early to ask Santa to give the Bears a new O-line?
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
i think you got it right with the drinks....
excuse me.
Just in time
for Week 17?

We need to start a fire Ron Turner blog. I hate his playcalling so much!!!!!!!!
Kick it to me... I'm open!
i cant think of a game
where he has outsmarted a d that blitz. the redskins game last year comes to mind. but heres a hint…. run the football!
I mean, I agree, but our OL sucks. Forte's only a rookie, can't expect him to be AP #2.
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
the other ap is a good physical runner, what about him?
this team has gotta get over this, same shit, different year.
And if we get a field goal eventually, we'll only need one more!
What a damn joke. lol
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
figures they would put orton in
when we finally get good field position… all is fair in lovies comp.
What the hell....
Glad to see that Lovie’s guy is so good that he’s gotten penalized. Again.
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
I was so overwhelmed with our spectacular play that I put up my shower curtain in my new apartment just now
Did I miss anything?
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
The way this is going
maybe JA, Lovie and Turner can all be canned before the regular season. At least then there isn’t anybody to stop somebody from bringing in a new QB.
Being Who You Thought We Were Since 2005!
can lovie
take over play calling or pep hamilton? anything is better turner
Is Babich any good at calling defense?
I haven’t figured that out. We couldn’t stop 3rd and long all season and I would hate to know how many tackles we missed.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
guess whos back
hanies back.
so much for playing starters into the 3rd
That Graham INT
I was really pissed we didn’t get the sack and then Graham pops out of nowhere and picks it off. Nice play.
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
Bennet finally does something good. Great return for a TD. Now start catching the ball.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
I still
don’t trust him as a punt returner, but that was a nice play.
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
Yeah, he made good moves, but he just doesn't seem very agile or sure handed and looks scared.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Yeah, I think ST"s is offensive unit #1. Defense is offensive unit #2. And the other guys are unit #3.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Here's the link. I hope he's out this year.

Damn
the Vikes need to do good. Good Vikes= bad us= high draft pick! Yay this is gonna be a sad season!
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
I'd like to make the playoffs. You can have a good draft from the bottom.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
But
you can have a better draft from the top! Quick, who are the top o-line prospects going into the season?
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
Yeah, I hear ya, and you have to pay those guys like they are 7 year vets that are superstars.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
This is a terrible game for our offense,
At least Lloyd looked good. Hopefully Hanie comes on again in this quarter.
Bold Prediction: Orton will be the starter in week 1.
by Sam Householder on Aug 16, 2008 10:31 PM CDT reply actions
Yeah, right now LLoyd is the only receiver who has look good catching the ball in the first 2 games.
Today he looked very good.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Check out Vince Young and Culpeppers pass stats in this game. Unbelievable.
http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/scores
Scroll down and read the stats off this page.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Well be lucky
if any of our QBs reaches Culpeppers numbers the entire season.
Being Who You Thought We Were Since 2005!
Looks like JT O Sullivan will be starting for the Niners this year.
And we thought we had a bad QB situation. Ouch. And they drafted a #1 overall QB.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Thinking about
how we’re playing is making me mad. Let’s talk about something else:
Give me your offensive starters for week 1.
I’ll go first:
QB: Rex (has looked slightly better)
RB: Forte (if Jones is healthy, he might win the job, but he’s not)
WR1: Hester: (Turner’s got a lot riding on the hopes he can be a #1, not gonna happen imo)
WR2: Lloyd (has looked like the most impressive receiver in pre season)
LT: St. Clair (Oh please god no)
LG: Beekman (Youth is all he’s got going over Metcalf right now)
C: Kreutz (obv.)
RG: Garza ()
RT: Tait ()
That’s a pretty sad group, but I guess that’s the best we got.
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
Ok
QB: Orton (with this shotty line Grossman will kill us with sacks and turnovers, Orton will get the job because he makes less mistakes when getting tons of pressure. Grossman with protection has looked sharp on almost every pass tough)
RB: Forte (They’ll take it slow Jones, but he could start later in the season if he does well.)
WR 1: Hester (Samre reasons as yours. Also, Bears staff wants to look right on this decision to make Hester a receiver)
WR 2: Lloyd (Best receiver so far. Only guy to make any kind of play. Default.)
Same line, but Beekman because of Metcalf injury. Metcalf will get the job once he’s healthy.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
OK
QB: Orton (Less mistakes)
RB: Forte (Same reasons)
WR 1: Lloyd (reliable so far)
WR 2: Booker (I think they want a veteran presence more than forcing Hester into the role, although they probably will)
Bold Prediction: Orton will be the starter in week 1.
by Sam Householder on Aug 16, 2008 10:51 PM CDT up reply actions
I could see Hester starting so it looked good to the fans, but
Booker getting more plays. Everything with Jerry and Lovie seems to be proving that they were right and willing to put pride before wins.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Not necessairly
They could but they won’t. They get 1 more year after this I say. However, if the QB situation doesn’t drastically change and they even talk about bringing back Grossman, then they should all lose their job.
Bold Prediction: Orton will be the starter in week 1.
by Sam Householder on Aug 16, 2008 10:52 PM CDT up reply actions
I like Lovie and most of the time Jerry, but
Jerry really ticked me off with the poor effort in addressing the offensive line.
Ron Turner has probably hurt Lovie’s career more than anything. Does anyone else think that Lovie is being told what to do all the time by management? I don’t know if he makes all the decisions he talks about like Rex and Kyle and Greise last year and that stuff.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Instead of possible starters how about chances of Hanie starting a game...
I’ll say 5:1 odds.
Bold Prediction: Orton will be the starter in week 1.
by Sam Householder on Aug 16, 2008 10:49 PM CDT reply actions
I would say 10:1
It would take injuries to both Bad QB 1 and Bad QB 2. They’re going to ride Rex/Kyle is our starting QB all year long. Their jobs are on the line.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Hanie
Anyone still excited about Hanie?
visit the mindful mission
Excited for him in another 3 years
Take the Romo approach.
Bold Prediction: Orton will be the starter in week 1.

Me 2. He's sooo young and gets to make the bad pass. He's making good passes too.
This is part of his time to learn.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
wow
I have never seen people be excited about a third string quarterback. Especially one who really hasn’t looked that good.

now...
… I can’t wait for people to talk about Hanie’s TD pass… even though it was a bad pass, and a helluva’ catch.

Didn't you see that pass big_low?
One of the best catches I’ve ever seen….this is why he should start
:D
I'M A MAN! I'M 22!
He looks better in the pocket against pressure
…than the mental midget.
Please Desmond take your time coming back
looks like we got two TE’s
I wish he was in my fantasy league. id bury that cocksucker- KenWo4Life
We got 3. Des is awesome too, but that catch was spectacular and he's been looking good also in both games.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
What do you guys think of our running game? Forte was in with the Grossman line. He couldn't do anything.
Name ATT YDS AVG TD
Matt Forte 7 17 2.4 0
P.J. Pope 3 15 5 0
Adrian Peterson 3 11 3.7 0
Garrett Wolfe 5 5 1 0

See...
… that smiley face? That means I was joking.

The “ugh” was in response to the missed field goal, right after I praised the special teams.

I wish they would have let Hanie throw the ball. It's preseason, guys. Come on.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Should have thrown a pass, get closer, but alas Marty ball fails us. Gould misses the kick.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Overtime in preseason
is really stupid.
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
Why would the owners approve OT in the preseason?
No one wants an injury.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
exactly
I say, just have a FG shoot out!
I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad
How about you flip a coin. Why did the Seahawks move the ball to the sidelines for the FG.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
Why is Grahm pushing people? He looks like last years secondary that couldn't tackle.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
I can't wait till Grahm is gone. He can't tackle anyone. He missed 3 tackles at the end of this game.
Kick it to me... I'm open!
