everyone loves 85 now? Whatever blah blah blah

I say as far as the LB’s go… Williams, Roach, Briggs and just roll with it, they will get better.

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

I agree with that lineup

but, I just need to see a few tackles broken by forte, hold the ball tighter, and shuffle those feet. I want to see a few misplaced passes made catchable by the wideouts, and make the catch when its in your arms reach. I want to see cutler manage the game more. Is this too much to ask for?? I know its early, but we need to make a stand right now and beat above average teams. One more request…..PLEASE throw the ball more in Olsen’s direction. We have a beast in him and we need to utilize him to the fullest. Show this bum benson what its like to be bottled up when you face a team with dedication to defense. We need this weeks win, it will be a statement win.

You know what I'd love to see... and Orton did a great job of doing this

I’d love to see Cutler check down more to Forte and throw him the ball. Then start hitting his receivers. Maybe if he softened up the middle with Forte it would cut down on his picks.

I agree...But that means the line will have to...

Either open up a hole big enough for Forte to get through

Give Cultler enough time to hit Forte in the flat

Either way your asking for alot :-)

Unreasonable people make life difficult...

I agree

I agree with you, but to be honest, I don’t want Forte to shuffle his feet nearly as much as I want him to get his speed up. Granted he hasn’t had much time before getting hit, but he either looks like he’s a bit slower or tentative.

I like him a lot

He’s very likable, because he’s funny and almost all of his media-play is good natured.

something else on that TD drive

Wale bit hard on that play near the goaline. that cost us big too

but as far as Roach… isn’t it enough to expect him to adjust on the fly? He is filling in for the biggest star for the biggest spot on our defense.
the Bears, middle linebacker, you all know the names over the years. We should be the gold standard for MLB play. just my opinion

I liked a comment in a past thread about “The Bears’ MLB position must always be manned by a future Hall of Famer” :-D
