Bears move up in Power Rankings despite loss.

Well for all the things bad, the Bears where still in that game.

Hmmm...

I don’t think we’re the 10th best team in football right now. We’re making too many mistakes and have some glaring holes to be considered that high, imo.

I don't think the bears are as bad as they looked though.

I mean those were all mental mistakes and those can be corrected.

I've got this thing and it's fucking golden!

And like I said, I too don’t think we’re a bad team either. But, as we are, do you see us as better than Baltimore, Philly, Arizona, San Fran, NY (the lesser one) and even the Pack… Probably some, yes, but definitely not all.

We have the potential to be better than all of those teams and others. But even in our wins, you can notice our deficiencies. And I’m a glass half full kinda guy.

I like our chances against any of those teams.

Philly is a solid team, but they lost to Oakland. What kind of self respecting team loses to the Jamarcus Russels?
Green Bay? The Bears did everything possible to lose that game, yet they had the game in their hands until that pass to Jennings. San Fran? That piss poor offense won’t score more than 10 points against us. The Jets are a decent team, but Sanchez has been pretty bad the last few weeks. Balt and AZ could be tough matchups, but I like our chances against those guys.

I absolutely agree with everything you said.

Baltimore (defense) and Arizona (passing offense) are the two match-ups that concern me the most.

What i don't get

is that after winning 3 in a row we stayed still… and after losing to ATL and looking awful for almost 60 minutes… we move up?

yeah because ATL is a good team at home.

Losing to a good team at their place in which the Bears were clearly controlling until self imploding… I see the reasoning.

But we moved above GB?

Who has the same record as us, and beat us?!?

It's ESPN.

What else do you expect from that orgy fest?

I think

that has more to do with the Falcons. We’re probably being compared to the 49ers. Yay us for not getting utterly destroyed.

What's with all the plugs lately?

Your SN boss leaning on you?

Be nice. Flag comments that you think are offensive. Use the "reply" button. Drink plenty of water. Compliment others. Rec (wreck) comments and posts you like. Don't call people names. If you don't like someone's comment, attack the comment and not the commentor. Learn the difference in your/you're, then/than, to/too. Exercise. Relax. Stretch often. Find good in the world.

Just because it can be done on Madden NFL does not automatically make it a viable option in real life.
