NightLink: Dan Pompei Breaks Down the Offense

Photo

More photos » by Charles Rex Arbogast - AP

Dan Pompei does an excellent job breaking down the Bears' offense. There is absolutely no reason not to read this article - it's the best breakdown I've seen in a while.

Follow me inside for more....

Star-divide

For example, Pompei found that the Bears had much better success running left than right:

On running back carries, the Bears went left 18 times for 107 yards, an average of 5.9 per run. Take away Garrett Wolfe's 36-yard run to the left at the end of the game if you wish, and they still averaged 4.2. On 13 running back carries to the right, the Bears had 36 yards, an average of 2.8.

The success to the left isn't all because of Beekman. One of the reasons the Bears replaced Beekman with Omiyale in the first place is they wanted a bigger, more physical run blocker. But there is no question Beekman helped the run game Sunday.

Now if Beekman could have the same effect on the passing game, the Bears really would be on to something.

I can't even do this article justice, so I'm going to stop. Read the article!

-------

I'm just kidding. I'm not done. I have a lovely video for you kids to watch. Watch the first couple of sentences.

First, he dresses up in drag. Now Brett's groin makes him squirm. Not judging, but I have questions for the man.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA,

Funny stuff, Madden’s “Man Crush” on Favre is well documented.

LMAO
I was standing right behind him… and saw him kind of… reach for his groin and… hold it…. Rub it.

Someone needs to set Sublime's

“Caress Me Down” to run in the background of that video. I think that would take the creep-factor to another level.

Brett Favre rubs his groin in front of his coach

before he and Jared Allen kill dear with hunting knives? That’s what I got out of that. That or Childress may have some voyeurism issues.

If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.

Oh and a rec to the clip.

That is the most disturbing video ever.

Tell Tony Kornheiser to stop talking about Farva’s groin.

Is something wrong with Childress?

Lifelong Arizona Cardinals/Chicago Bears fan.

No band-wagoner fans allowed, pick a team and stick with em, throughout the good and the bad.

After that vividly described video, I'm starting to wonder...

When Childress flew down to see Farve in the offseason, to convince him to play, maybe it wasn’t what Brad said that convinced farve to join up but rather what Brad did.

Isn't this about where somebody says

this is why we can’t have nice things?

Favre bashing

will always have its place here.

There's no reason not to bash him

He’s even slightly admitted that he’s a drama queen.

Damn right,

Bring on Minnesota so we can send him into permanent retirement. Where he’s supposed to be.

Hub Arkush suggests that Bear insiders say Jay Cutler is extremely depressed

He goes onto say that Cutler is a longshot to ever taste the playoffs under his current contract with the Bears. Meanwhile, Cutler surely most question his scorched earth approach to Josh McDaniels.

No offensive line…no wide receivers…and his best friend in Chicago is a pile of dung at tight end. I guess that would make me depressed too.

Ah, the infamous "insiders".

Also, pile of dung? Unnecessary sir.

No link there Swami?

Eh why back up what you say, that’s for losers anyway.

He'll be prescribed xanex and be fine

Things like these tend to resolve themselves naturally.

This is a quasi quote...

from Hub on the B&B show. It’s taken mostly out of context and let’s face it, but Hub is mostly a tool anyway. This was Boers and Hub speculating as to the nature of Cutler’s feelings about the situation, not an actual report on how Cutler behaves.

If I may…I can go so far as to say that if I never hear from Hub again, it would still be too soon. The guy likes to pretend he’s something he’s not; knowledgeable and well liked.

When you find yourself in a hole, STOP DIGGING!!!

You can't make that stuff up

Chilly talking about Favre’s groin is priceless. The first 20 seconds seemed surreal.
