but the only way we win this game is if we play flawless on all three phases…. oh and ball control to keep there offense off the field…. But the real key will be line play…

Arizona is really good
but only sometimes. Depends which Cardinals team we see… and we NEED to get pressure on Warner.
Their offense can be great. We need to keep two guys shadowing Fitz and make Breaston beat us; I think if Bolding plays it will only be part of the game.
We can score on their defense if our offensive line can give us at least a second more than last week …. baby steps
Only sometimes is right.
I got the Bears in the “Underacheivers Bowl”. Both 4-3 if i’m not mistaken. We are who they think we are, Right?
key to the game
get to warner. plain and simple. we get warner disrupted, we win the game
Eat. Sleep. Pray. Watch chicago play.

I thought we were in serious trouble
and we may still be. After AZ’s performance last week however, I’m feeling a bit more hopeful. And I’d really, really like some revenge since those bastards knocked me out of the survival league last week with Warner’s “epic” performance. I think we’re gonna see of lot of nickel defense this week.Well, you all will at least. I get to watch the Bucs pursue their second winless season in franchise history. Yay?

Its time for special teams to win us another game.
It looks like Hester has turned the corner on Punts and lets just keep Knox back on Kicks, I dont want to see too much more of Manning, not that hes bad, I just like the Knox/Hester 1-2 punch. And then on the coverage units for special teams I would like to see them force a fumble, those are game breakers. As long as Maynard keeps em inside the 10 yard line instead punting them only 10 yards were good there.

They're not that smart
I think they’re cut from the same cloth as Madden.

Well to be cut from the same cloth as Madden wouldnt be such a bad thing.
Never once did he have a losing season as Head Coach, not too shabby.

apparently everyone here has more confidence in this team
than i do. boy is it weird to have confidence in the qb and none in the rest of the team.

Did you see my above post?
I think the chance of the Bears winning is roughly 45%.

I top out at 30%
chance of winning. But… maybe thats just me being a negative nelly. :-P
its my favorite picture of ginger. she looks so damn happy. :-)Jerry’s been so distant lately and Lovie barely calls.- Just Dave
There is no way we win this game!!!!! If we struggled against the Bengals,we will struggle with Warner, Boldin, and Larry, Fitz.
Dont forget how the field conditions can affect players that arent used to playing here.
Like every year the Saints come to town, its not so easy to get in and out of your cuts playing here.
Phil: " Whose baby is that?

Don't forget
that the Cards O and D-lines are worse than the Bengals. If we can get a little pressure on Warner he’ll turn the ball over.

Smellin' a lot of "if" coming off this plan

Right
“A little pressure” might be asking for too much from the Bears. Plus, we don’t have a Peppers on our D-line.

Serenity
I think.
I do know its Jayne Cobb from Firefly.. its all run together from the show & movie.

Hmm..
I may have to check it out sometime. Thanks.
So what’s your impression of the Cubs this offseason? Hendry has painted himself in a corner and can’t get out.
People who don’t care don’t respond, and people who do care do respond. Does that make sense Bronco fans trying to validate the trade?
the cubs are a mess
and i’m so annoyed with the way everyone’s reacted to the bradley crap, i don’t even want to claim the cubs as my team. not that he was perfect… but people treated him like shit before he’d even played a game. it was ridiculous.
and i hate the idea of resigning and depending on harden… but with lilly having surgery i just don’t see a way hendry doesn’t get talked into it.
but i probably won’t pay a whole lot of attention to baseball’s offseason until pitchers & catchers report…. and then probably not again until opening day.
Jerry’s been so distant lately and Lovie barely calls.- Just Dave
I don't see a lot changing
since the team will look the same next year, with the same issues as last season. The outfield is a mess, no lefties, bad infield defense, questionable middle-relief, etc. IMO- another 83 games looks like it’s in the books.
People who don’t care don’t respond, and people who do care do respond. Does that make sense Bronco fans trying to validate the trade?
Depends..
if boldin doesn’t play, double cover fitz, sic the other CB on breaston, and have 1 person keeping a cursory eye on the running game they don’t have
not gonna give up are you?

I am more concerned about our defense in this game...
I just don’t see us stopping Fitzgerald and Bouldin in the seams of the Cover 2 and there’s no way Lovie has the corners playing up on them. The slants could be open all day and these two guys will kill you on those plays. Warner is the wild card. He’s capable of the games like last week, but then he’s just as capable of being as accurate a passer as there is in the NFL. If that guy shows up, it could be a Cincinatti performance again.
Bottom line is, I don’t have a lot of confidence in our coaches to match up to theirs, on either side of the ball.
If Boldin plays
A 50-75% Boldin >>> Bowman, Vasher, or whoever else we have guarding him.
"The phone's for you, I think it's the Devil."
I want to Say Bears but...
That damn Tampa 2 is going to kill us this game. Unless we straight double team their receivers and leave no safety help.
I think this is almost another "must win" for the Bears
Looking ahead, the schedule might be a little tougher in the second 1/2 – given the fact that we’ve still got to play Minnesota, twice.
We need to go at least 6-3 the rest of the way, in order to have a realistic shot at making the playoffs as a wild card – and that loss to Atlanta could really come back to bite us in the arse.
They seem match up well against us, with big, physical receivers. If we don’t get enough pressure on Warner, I don’t think we’re going to be able to stop them from making big plays down the field.

Bears
maybe a homer pick but I think having home field will be a big help. looking for the Bears in a squeaker, 27-24.
have to run the ball well enough to keep the cards off balance and their O off the field. with no running game this will be over at halftime. but I’m optimistic I guess…
by Ortons Neckbeard on Nov 5, 2009 11:46 AM CST reply actions
Bears by 3 or less
IMO this is going to be a nail-biter that comes down to a last minute defensive stop/turnover/punt return/hail mary/ or Gould FG.
Of course our DL will have to get pressure on Warner, if not that it will be Cincinatti 2.0, but I don’t think that the Cardinals’ OL is as good as the Bengals’ OL.
We should have to put 48 on the scoreboard to win(it wouldn’t hurt), I think if we can get into the 24-31 point range I feel we win the game…
Forte should be able to run on the Cardinals, which should open up the passing game allowing Cutler to see the field from his feet and not his back.
Knox will be more involved this week in the passing game along with Hester, who will do well on returns, giving us the field position advantage. Maybe he can even take one to the house!

return game will be important
the cards aren’t great on ST giving up a decent ave per return. no TD’s given up but lets change that this weekend. hope hesters ankle is fine
by Ortons Neckbeard on Nov 5, 2009 12:27 PM CST up reply actions
Not sure what the O/U will be
but I’ll say:
Bears 13
Cards 10
Penalties, turnovers, and sacks for both teams.
You are all gentlemen (and ladies) and good judges of cheap whiskey.
I think there is too much speed...
on both teams to only have 23 points total…
But that would be “Bears” Football in November

by WisBearsFan34 on Nov 5, 2009 12:29 PM CST up reply actions
I hear ya...
but speed doesn’t prevent INTs, nor does it prevent sacks.
You might be totally right about the shoot-out, but I don’t think so. But hey, a win’s a win, right?
You are all gentlemen (and ladies) and good judges of cheap whiskey.
At this point
I’ll take them anyway we can get them, including ugly!
Unreasonable people make life difficult...
Ass whoopin
What’s the Bears biggest weakness on D? Stopping the Pass.
What’s the Cards biggest strength on O? Passing the ball.
Cardinals 34
Bears 13
It would be a disappointment
but not a surprise…
