Chicago Bears Game Ball of the Week: CB Tim Jennings

There's been some iffiness with one of the cornerback positions for the Chicago Bears this season, specifically the CB opposite of Charles Tillman. Zack Bowman was benched earlier this year for Tim Jennings, and Jennings seemed to make the most of his opportunity. As Bears fans, we'd have to think that Bowman would figure in to the long-term plans of the team, but with him missing another game yesterday due to injury, Jennings again stepped up and made his case to be a starter for the rest of the season. Jennings still has some work to do, and still is not fully developed in the position, but the more snaps he gets under his belt, the better off he'll be.
His numbers from yesterday:
9 tackles (7 solo)
1 tackle for a loss
2 pass deflections
1 INT with a 39 yard return
The offense did some good things as well, and there were several defensive players who were considered for the game ball, but we decided to go with Jennings this week. Who would you have handed out game balls to?
Some recap linkage after the jump-
Michael C. Wright has his reaction from the game yesterday.
Al Harris to be released by the Packers. No, we shouldn't.
David Haugh points out that the Bears could have been beaten yesterday.
Dan Pompei notes the balance on offense that we witnessed.
John "Moon" Mullin hands out his report card from yesterday's contest.
Jim Miller adds his two cents; says Cutler could have done better.
Bad Biggs notes that the OLine benefitted by the return of Garza.
Steve Rosenbloom provides his commentary from yesterday's game.
Rick Telander says the Bills played the "perfect patsies."
Sean Jensen notes our future schedule won't be as easy as the Bills.

I was not so lucky.
Guess OT losses to the Chiefs and Ravens, plus a pretty close game in NE, don’t help one’s doormat rating.
Garza defnitly helped out
I saw numerous DB blitzs that were pointed out and beaten.
Even G-REG pointed one out.
I think olsen should get a ball as well for his dominant performance carry this team on his shoulders. =)

Well if we gave him the ball
he probably would drop it, cause you know it’d hit him in the hands and all. I say give Earl “The Pearl” Bennett the game ball for being consistent in catching, blocking and running.

Am I remembering things wrong, but
wasn’t Garza the one during training camp and pre-season that they seemed to be down on? He was the one they moved around to make room for Lance Lewis and were even thinking of making him the backup center? I might be wrong but it was like they thought he wasn’t necessarily one of the best 5.
Does anyone else recall that or is the stress of all these close games getting to me?
I see why you'd go there but I also seem to remember that they were down on Garza too.
Like I said, I could be wrong or just misinterpreted things I read.
Garza has always been the redheaded stepchild of the O line
..he has been steady and graded out pretty high too from what I recall. Not sure I recall any really direct negativity though.
"I am a sinner who does not expect forgiveness. But I am not a government official." - Francis Wolcott
The only
thing I can recall is reading that all the O line spots except center (Olin) and LT (CWilliams) were open and they had to earn their jobs but saw Moon and Biggs say that Garza was pretty much safe and would have to have a horrific preseason to lose his job….

No doubt
Teams that most people would say suck are beating the teams most would consider the best. Nothing seems clear-cut at all right now in the NFL, besides the Cowboys being awful.
If there's one thing I do know about this season it's
we are not the Cowboys, thank god for that. Didn’t watch that much of the game due to the fact I have trouble watching the cheese play unless the Bears are in town, but did you see the Cowboys actually quit? Terribad. Oh and that hit on Roy Williams was pretty dirty, but they are dirty filthy packers….
Vikings week is upon us, someone go give Brent a hug cause Chilly doesn’t need one.

If I was a Cowboys fan...
I’d be livid at the poor excuse for tackling. There was the one TD where a cowboy was right next to the guy that another cowboy had grabbed, and he just stood there.
Just. Stood. There.
If I was a fan, I’d be calling for his head along with the HC. Heck, I’d call for his head first.

I guess Jimmy Johnson was a better football coach/exectutive than Jerry thought....
I see the Cowboys and Redskins in the same boat as long as their owners try to pretend they’re good football guys. I understand it’s their team and they can do what they want but most good CEO’s hire people who are better than they are to run individual parts of their companies and don’t try to do it all themselves.
Heard
Mike McCaskey is available after the season….Gotta give the Bears credit in that they let the football guys do their thing now (course after the failed experiment with Mike McCaskey) while ownership just watches (well except forcing HC on you like jauron and some say Lovie this season)…..Course some might say that is a bad thing as well….but eh….

Eric Mangini deserves another shot in Cleveland
he’s a great coach, and he gets his guys to play hard. If the Browns are dumb enough to let him go, he’s my prime choice to take over for Lovie.

How is the Punter
not the emergency kicker on every team? I’ve seen this happen a few times, and wonder how it’s not possible for the punter to at least attempt a PAT, I know its not the same thing, but that point cost the Lions their game. (haha)

another more logical explanation
than having a 300 pound DT try a kick because “he used to play soccer”.
My first thought was that a soccer ball and an american football (or rugby ball) are very different things to kick, in my experience. Might as well have put in someone who plays golf to have a go.

So...
tell us Robert. How is the MSP local media portraying the prospects for the MN team? This is going to be an unusually uncomfortable week for us (you). Is there a strong belief in your team making a push for the playoffs or is it more subdued hope?
BTW, should I not let you near my carpet or beer anytime soon?

Things seem to be riding on the next two weeks.
Two wins, and we’re back in it. Beat GB, lose to the Bears, still possible but tough. Lose to GB, and don’t let the door hit Childress’ butt on the way out.
For my sake, I’m not sure how it’s going to turn out, because I don’t know who’s going to show up. The three quarter conundrums, or the single quarter efficient machine. Until the team puts it together (and they don’t have much time left to do so), I’m presuming the three quarter conundrum. So… yeah.
Unfortunately, I’m still on recovery road, so while I’d likely be safe near your carpet, I’m still not allowed to drink any alcohol. Oh, how I wish that wasn’t the case.

Hey...

Not a smoker or an alchie.
Just managed to come down with the flu, pneumonia, and bronchitis in a two week span. Sucktown, population me. I’ve dropped 15 pounds over the past two weeks because my throat hurt too much to eat, and now my stomach’s shrunk so much I eat about a third of what I used to pack away. And I’m supposed to avoid alcohol until my health comes back.
Glad to hear you quit smoking though. I’ve watched enough family members in their old age get just wrecked by their cig habit. An ugly, ugly end.

I didn't like a lot of the sports writers' take on the game
Very negative. I understand it wasn’t a perfect game, nor a blowout, but a win is a win and we have to take whatever we can get this year. The Bills might be the best 0-8 team in the history of the NFL and it seems like everyone (the writers) forgot this team took the mighty Ravens and Chiefs. The Bills will get their first win in one of the next two weeks.
This win was very promising for the Bears. As long as we keep going from here, things have to be looking up, only 1 sack surrendered, no INTs, and a balanced attack.

I think the biggest issue everyone has with the win is
this was the worst rush defense in the league and our RB’s still averaged less than 2.5 yards per carry. Since they made a commitment to the run you would have liked to have seen a better result from that standpoint. It doesn’t bode well as you get to the toughest part of the schedule.
Cutler averaged 7.8 ypc!
which is pretty damn embarrassing considering our actual RBs couldn’t get really anything going against the Bills rush defense. I know Forte and Taylor had some success, but they really should have had the type of performance they put in against Carolina. Cutler’s yards came on scrambles – hey at least he wasn’t sacked – and he did a good job of tucking and running and making plays instead of holding on to the ball and taking the sack.
I guess I expected a bigger game out of Forte. I thought Taylor did a good job in the role that was designed for him, but I thought Forte would get going and it never really happened.
Yeah...
I remember thinking at one point, why not just have some designed Cutler “bail out” runs. At least if he’s about to get hit he can slide first to avoid the contact. And if they do hit him it’s 15 more yards anyway. Plus he’ll at least see who’s hitting him. I am more concerned than ever about Forte and Taylor together. IMO, they’re far too similar to be complimentary backs. The only real difference is that Taylor is much better on short yardage situations. The Bears need to play Bell or even Wolfe more in the RB rotation. Nonetheless, It was great to see Martz commit to the run game even thought it wasn’t a huge success on its own. It did open up the passing game.

Charles Tillman
His fumble recovery was stellar. He totally deserves the game ball.
Does anyone else see how horrible he has been this year? He’s a major liability and needs to be benched right away. Hopefully the coaches see it and when Bowman comes back, he replaces him. Bowman and Jennings as the CB’s would be pretty nice.
He can't cover anybody anymore...
But I think he could be a pretty good Free Safety. He hits when necessary, and is quite possibly the most adept player at punching the ball from a carrier’s hands. I’d insert him as second string FS next season behind Wright, and then have Harris back up Manning at SS.
Either that, or get him aerating cleats so he can’t possibly fall down…
I would rather
see Wright get the time at FS, as he’s nearly 8 years younger than Tillman.
If I did what I love for a living, what would I do in my free time?

In defense of Peanut
He is a physical corner in an era where you can’t really be a physical corner. This guy (pardon my Grudenesque phrase) woulda been an elite CB about 20-25 years ago. I think the guy takes way too much criticism, considering how soft their system is. Just my opinion.
He's a CB who can't cover WRs.
Considering that is role #1 of the CB, I think the criticism is justified.

Jim Miller is an idiot.
Direct quote from his article…
A good defense intercepts that throw and Robbie would not of even run onto the field.
If I turned junk like that into my boss, I’d be fired on the spot. I’m surprised he still has a sports writing job after his last two articles, where he obviously performed zero research (claiming Hanie was the #2 two days ago), and then completely forgetting to edit his own writing. Pathetic.
Al Harris was cut. Any takers? I’d put in a claim, stash him on the bench, and tap his knowledge when the Bears play the Slack in Week 17, and then again in the playoffs.

Actually
i just got back from a parallel universe…..Not only did the Bears lose this game 34 – 21 but Cutler threw 6 INTs was sacked 6 times…It was so bad that Todd Collins was inserted to provide a spark and scored all 3 TDs (a beautiful 52 yards scramble where he broke 3 tackles, a beautiful 71 yard bomb to Knox, and another nice touch pass to DA) …..Todd Collins was also named starter for the next game against the vikings as martz says Collins has the special something that the PUNK Hanie (martz words) will NEVER have…..Cutler was demoted to #2……
Oh and the Cubs won their 3rd World series title in the last 5 seasons……

Not a well written article
If you can call it an article, but I thought he was spot on with Cutler. 188 yards is nothing to write home about versus the worst defense in football.

Cutler had a nice game
He played the percentages … which is what you want to see in a QB of physical talent, the ability to reign it in on occasion.
I thought the running game was poor … despite all the hullabaloo, we lack a power back to thunder down the middle. I know we picked up Unga in the supplemental draft but I wonder if MIKEL LESHOURE declares, we may take a look especially if we have a different management team.
The OL was average at best. Against a better pass rush I think we could find ourselves in trouble again so coming into the draft next year, a minimum of 2 picks are needed for the OL, though I think Kreutz and Garza are the only holdovers guaranteed a place.
A number of the commentators in the links need to respect a win is a win against a team that could quite easily be 3-5 now.
Jim Miller should criticise poor outcomes which have occured, not try to second guess what might have occured. After all, every ball throw in the air might due to a range of factors be intercepted. Call Cutler out if he throws 4 interceptions, not if he hasn’t.

But he has to get the Game Ball
a few bad throws but no picks
scrambled away from pressure
converted 3rd downs (big prob all yr) with arm and feet
Jennings does seem be make clutch plays. But most of his tackles were cause his receiver caught a pass. And if that throw was better it wouldve been a TD.
