And so begins a nine game season. Last week, the Packers pulled ahead in the NFC North by virtue of playing more games than the Bears, and they will likely continue their win streak by playing the hapless Dallas Cowboys at Lambeau. The Bears control their own fate right now, and a loss to the Bills will surely be a reeling blow for this struggling squad. Can Peppers get to Fitzpatrick? Can Jay complete downfield passes? Might we actually see Chester Taylor sniff the endzone (or even the red zone?) Let's find out...

I predict
Todd Collins will come in the second half and lead the Bears back from a 42 – 3 deficit…..
That's it! See, at first I thought it was hate, too. Hate was all I knew, it built my world, it imprisoned me, taught me how to eat, how to drink, how to breathe. I thought I'd die with all my hate in my veins. But I realized it was loathing.

G'day mates!
Don’t have great feeling about this but hoping to be surprised like the cowboy game..

If we lose this JA, Lovie, and Martz need to be fired asap.

Word is
Loive is coming back for 11 as mentioned in the pregame thread……From my understanding (from listening to various shows) it would take a combination of no lockout and finishing 6 – 10 or worse for the Bears to EVEN consider firing Lovie at the end of the season…..

nah they mostly blamed jay
it was a bad throw without his feet set was essentially their point (and it’s true)
Terrible throw
Threw off his back foot with great protection.

Or do the Bears offensive players have seriously depressed body language? Like they’ve already conceded that they won’t be competing today.
need an offensive leader

Cutler throws a bad pass...
Hester makes a bad effort at the catch. Will anyone on this team just step up and make a play on offense?
