So what did

difer say lol…..

Was it something like the only reason Cutler is winning games is because of the Defense and running game….The Bears Defense works in the regular season but come playoffs it will not work….Or Its a shame that a OC the caliber of martz has to limit his passing offense because of the short comings of Cutler…..All things he has said this season…..

I want history to erase his every achievement.....I want him to feel the disgust in the bronco fans eyes when they look on him in shame....

he’s not all the way wrong.

and i never said they suck. I said the offense isn’t great and he sorta has a point on that front.

And the defense is good. It isn’t great. At least not how I define “great”.

- Bears coaches said dont worry about the weather just win the game and your in the playoffs

- Bear and vikings players huddled together and talked about what cleats to wear tonight

- Was told that one vet told him this surface he has never seen and is hard as rock now

- goodell does care about the players safety and went over the field turf a couple of times

- Tillman has a bruised foot and is wearing a special shoe (insert “slipping joke here”)

- Bears Offense wants to run more crossing routes after last weeks game

- The redzone for both sides of the fields are horrible and pretty much an ice rink
