I'm happy oh so happy....
Vikings- 1-3- Favre being a dirty old man and if found guilty could face a suspension so I’m guessing 7-3 is a long shot. Oh lets look at that schedule, Dallas, Green Bay, Washington and Chicago coming up… anybody see that cart around here…. oh here it is someone put it in front of the horse.
Packers 3-2- I don’t like to celebrate injuries of players so I’m not even going to enjoy Rodgers with a concussion(we know how this feels) or Finley out for 3 weeks. Buuuuuuuuuuuutttttt if they lose games I’m all about it.
Bears 4-1- with no help from the QB, and hopefully JC makes his way back and the line gets better and we see more of Louis and Wooten.
Sad fantasy stat of the week, I started Frank Gore and Peyton Hillis on my team with Forte on the bench…. Forte outscored both of them who knew we’d have a running game. Good news my team still one and I alone sit atop of the 14 team division the lone undefeated team. Yay me!

"How do you know somebody is great? When you see how they respond to adversity. Anybody can man a ship when the waters are calm." - Jerry Angelo
I still think Morrissey is a moron.
There is no defending Collins’ performance last week, but I think too many people are forgetting what transpired several weeks ago.
- backup QB’s didn’t look so great after the 1st pre-season game especially after Hanie is injured
- Todd Collins asking price was too high so they signed Matt Guttieriez
- fans and media calling Angelo cheap for not giving Collins what he wanted since he was Martz’ choice
- LeFevour couldn’t play dead and Guttieriez showed nothing
- Bears sign Collins because he was the right fit in Martz’ offense
- Collins plays very well in first pre-season game, some media and fans said you could see when a guy knows how to run this offense what can happen and hope that Cutler could pick up some of his knowledge.
- Hanie is relegated to 3rd string because of his shoulder injury and because Collins knew the system better, plus performed better during pre-season
- Jay starts the regular season and plays great until he gets hurt (still convinced he was concussed much earlier in that game)
- Colling gets hurt in same game without any time to get his feet wet.
- Hanie comes in as 3rd QB, nothing really bad but nothing really good enough to elevate his status
I’m doing this from memory, but unless I’m concussed (not unlikely) I think this is pretty close to accurate. My point is not to say Collins should remain as the #2 or that I’m defending his play last week, but this revisionist history saying “how did we ever sign him”, “what could they have been thinking”, etc. is garbage. Under the circumstances, the moves were pretty much in line with what the fans and media wanted. In fact the possible exception is not signing Collins sooner instead of Gutierrez. And for those LeFevour for HOF fans, he stunk the entire preseason unitl one or two drives at the end and those only looked good because of where he set the bar earlier.
I’ve been one of Lovie/Angelo’s strongest critics and would love to see both of them, along with Ted Phillips, fired tomorrow, but this particular situation is not something that can be blamed entirely on them, in my opinion.

Another point............
When we were looking at Collins we could not get ANY QB’s to even come to Chicago to talk with us.
Our OL’s reputation preceded them.
I think Collins is done – beyond well done – any idiot can hand off the ball.
The team will keep him because he’s already paid. With our OL having an additional tackling dummy is not necessarily a bad thing.

I just recall a couple of the other QB's who were not signed wouldn't even talk to us.
Collins came in thinking he was going to be a “Camp Arm” and I can see where other QB’s would make the same evaluation.
Couple that with our hobbled together OL, JA and Lovie – not a big stretch.

I usually don't agree with Haugh but I do here.
There’s a hypocrisy with the local media and some fans. They want it both ways. They want to spend 3 months in the summer saying how bad the Bears are and how Lovie is on a death march but as soon as he starts out 4-1 all of a sudden you hear stuff like “The NFL is down this year” or “They’re lucky to be 4-1.” We all had a chance to look at the schedule before the season started and a lot of level headed fans said the Bears could win between 8 and 10 games. So the guys that were running around saying this team would go 4-12 really sound stupid being negative nancies now.
If you hate Lovie so much that it’s blinding your chance to enjoy a successful Bears season then just say it. But don’t knock a team that actually has a chance to runaway with their division. Don’t knock a team that has one of the best special teams and defenses in Football. Where are all the people that praised the Packers in pre-season for their approach and complained about Lovie’s easy camps? All of a sudden the Pack’s roster looks like a hospital emergency room and the Bears are relatively healthy. I’m not sure how this thing is going to end but not giving Lovie or this team credit right now and blaming there victories on luck is just unfair.
Yeah but it worked!

i never understood the talk of 4-12,5-11,6-10
if this team won 7 games without Urlacher and Peppers how do they win less when bot are playing at psychotic levels? Not too mention Briggs is looking as good as ever.
i said about 10-11 wins im still sticking by it. What worried me was the last 4 but the jets,vikes look beatable, patriots will be a close won but we get them at home and we have already beaten the packers
by Bear Lovin 21 on Oct 12, 2010 10:12 AM CDT up reply actions
Exactly.
I had them at 10-6 myself and I just used plain old common sense to make my argument at the time. Like you said, how does a team that went 7-9 go 4-12 after actually improving the roster? I never got that. Yeah I’m pissed about Angelo’s job on the O-line but it’s time to give him credit on signing a guy that right now has an outside chance of being DPOY in Peppers.
If you told me at the start of the season that the Bears had a chance to have a defense close to being as good as the ‘06 team, Devin Hester back to being Devin, 2 good running backs with the only difference being a o-line that’s worse and swapping Rex Grossman for Jay Cutler, I’d TAKE IT. You can tell that Lovie is figuring that out because all of a sudden Hester’s role is decreasing at WR so he can concentrate on punt returns and they are sorting through that O-line for the right mix. If they can figure that out and keep on improving the running game…
Yeah but it worked!
Well we do have a tougher schedule
that has to play into it a little..

It was funny over there last night
immediately after the loss, they were all talking about how they’ll sweep the division and make up ground that way.
Once I’ve had my morning coffee, I’ll head back over and jump into the hilarity once more.
Ironically, they were also complaining about ESPN spending too much time talking about the Jets
And the first sentence of their pregame thread, “after all the lies, libel, slander…of the past week”. Yup, he’s innocent because he’s your quarterback and it’s a conspiracy created by meanies and Viking haters.
Oh, and the refs too, they’re in on it.

I really tried to read some of their comments on the headlined post saying the Vikings will go 7-3 and put up huge numbers against their opponents. It was a mix of “Dear god really?” and hilarity.
I can’t wait for us to put them in their place, right next to the Lions at the bottom of the division (Though if it were me, I’d have the Lions above the Vikes. I respect Detroit fans).

From this morning's email chain...
Honestly, I think we can go 4-4 to start the season. I feel we can put the nail in the Cowboys coffin, beat the depleted Packers, get out-coached by Belicheck, and tee off on Arizona. And I feel very strongly about the second half of our schedule with both Bears, Pack, and Giants the only ones I’m really worried about. And three of those are at home.
I don’t think the Bears will lose their final 8, but they certainly look a lot harder (then our schedule – Ed). There’s two definite wins there with @Lions and Eags at home. You get the Vikes twice, at Fins, Pats and Jets at home, and wrap up the season in Lambeau. That’s a brutal second half, but at least you get the toughest teams in the AFC East at home.

Lol
Don’t think for a second that I want a year without football, or even worse, another scab season.
Players have gotten used to being paid too much, and owners have gotten used to the NFL’s price-gouging. The union needs to give up on some things, like the overblown rookie pay scale, and the NFL needs to reduce the vesting years for healthcare from 3 years to 2.
This season alone is proving that people are going to get hurt, but in the old days of the NFL, players went to school so they could have a career after the finished playing. Now, a lot of players all expect to come in rookies, make 60 mil and retire at 28.
I’m pretty sure the Union wants to reduce the rookie pay scale to something similar to how the NBA is set up. There’s a lot of vets that complain about that pay scale as well.

The Vikes all looked disinterested, tired. The Jets are a good team, but made plenty of mistakes.
I’d tell any Bears fan that they’d be stupid to assume we’ll just go into any game as the winners before a snap is played. At the rate they’re going though, I’d tell most Vikings fans that they’re just stupid.

There’s two things that had me worried there.

I think it’s possible he just threw out his arm.

that does bring up the age old question...
which came first the mustache or Ditka?
My guess is they were created together, which some scientists claim is the source of the Big Bang Theory.

I would agree with that using that theroy
that Ditka and the mustache are actually one entity therefore when one was created so was the other.

I agree, I work in an office environment...
And the smallest offensive material can get you sent to Human Resources.
The NFC North Seems to be the Bears' to lose
I still don’t think this is a complete team by any means, yet. But with the great start and the serious possibility of being 6-2 at their break, the Bears control their fate. The Packers injuries are piling up and the Vikes look like they are going to tank. Even with a brutal December schedule (though w/ Packs injuries and Vikes struggles not quite AS brutal) the Bears can win the North pretty easily. I think even if they struggle down the stretch we’ll look back at a strong September and October as the grounds for success. The Bears MUST take the next few opponents to get the rough patches worked out to be a complete team (3rd downs, rushing offense, offensive line, pass D).
"I feel like the pieces are in place. But we have to execute...It's about execution. You have to execute. You have to have a scheme that facilitates the strengths of your players. If it doesn't, then it's a bad scheme. It's that simple. So we feel real good about the parts in place on offense."

I agree.
But I also like the philosophy that you don’t have to worry about 3rd downs if you score on first or second.

True, but...
Then your defense gets pissy because they just sat down. C’mon man, give the dude a minute to catch some oxygen.

Pats, Jets, Vikes, GB, Fins.
I’m writing of the Eags and Lions as potential losses though.

i'm sorry bro....but
I just don’t see how the Bears lose to the Vikings or the Pack…
Now i could see the Pats just destroying them… Giants v2.0 maybe?
The Dolphins will be a close game
But the Pack…they … idk… overrated much maybe? They are like the New Age Cowboys, all the hype , but no basis to back it up..
And the Vikes… I know they’re your team man, but… Man they have a lot of work to do… First of all they HAVE to either
A. Get Favre the HELL outta minny
B. Get AP goin on the ground
or
C. Make their WR grow about 6 inches taller.
Because some of those passes Favre was throwing (especially on 3rd downs) were just Nasty. Moss’s pass looked better (ok maybe it didn’t but still)
But hey man, you know what they say, Any given Sunday.
A dozen for Devin baby
They could, COULD
lose to the Redskins. They are a “frisky” team with a decent pass rush, with a good coach and QB. I didn’t mean to imply that they WILL lose, I’m just saying, at worse, 6-2.

Potentially the Redskins. They’ve been pretty solid on defense this year, making opportunities for the offense.
