Scouting the opposition: Jets at Patriots- MNF Open Thread
by Dane Noble on Dec 6, 2010 6:30 PM CST
in Game Day
Email
PrintNext week, the Bears will play host to the New England Patriots, and two weeks after that, the New York Jets. You can bet your rear end that tonight many of us Bears fans will be doing the exact same thing that the Bears players and coaching staff will be doing: Watching the Pats and Jets go at it on Monday Night Football.
So, you've got a little time to finish your chores for the evening, get your clothes ready for tomorrow (don't you hate having to wake up and iron your clothes the morning after a late night?), and hunker down with your notepad and #3 pencil... kickoff is at 8:30pm ET; Are you ready for some scouting out of the enemy football?!
Injury reports after the jump.
Jets: (Nearly their entire damn team was listed as probable, so I'm not including them)
OUT
DB Jim Leonhard (IR, calf, shin)
QUESTIONABLE
DB Dwight Lowery (LP, concussion), RT Daimen Woody (LP, knee)
Patriots:
QUESTIONABLE
DE Myron Pryor (DNP, back), CB Jonathan Wilhite (DNP, hip), DE Mike Wright (DNP, concussion)
PROBABLE
QB Tom Brady (LP, right shoulder, foot)

Seriously hate both teams.
Hoping they just come out and beat the shit out of each other. I am a fan of Leonhard’s though so it sucks to see him on IR.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
This is going to be an intersting match up.
Jeez, that game last night between the Raven and the Steelers was a defensive slug-fest.

It had to have been around July/August. This is honestly the first I’ve thought of it regarding Chicago’s season. The division title would be much sweeter, but I’ll be happy with the wildcard if it comes down to it.

Well if luck is on our side...
I don’t like to wish any injury on anyone, but if Brady and/or Sanchez get hurt in tonights, game and can’t play for the next 2 weeks, that’d be freaky, and I would have to think the stars are aligning for the Bears, and Lady Luck may be on our side, she was on mine this morning, I won $100 on a free $1 scratch off I got as part of a gift.

I'm watching the game, and the Pats defense is OK.
The Jets offense is terrible. The Jets aren’t getting out of this one. The Pats will be cocky after coming off of “the best game of the season”. I’m looking forward to the Jets…the Pats less so, but lets just win out the season so whiners like me can just go home.

i think as long as you have timeouts
you should have challenges.
dumb that if the officals get something wrong you can’t throw a flag just b/c you were wrong earlier.
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it. -George Halas
Eh
rex had a challenge left but that would have been his last one because he used one earlier and lost….Dunno if that is you are referring to…..
Boo all you want but you know what….Deep down you know I am right!
- Mike Martz on how the feels about the fans
that is what i'm saying
the idea that you’re out of challenges in the first half is ridiculous. if you have a TO, you get to have a red flag.
the timing of a bad call shouldn’t matter
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it. -George Halas
Ah that would be
neat but the way they have it now I guess you can say it adds strategy of the game….Besides do you want Lovie with technically 6 challenges…..
Boo all you want but you know what….Deep down you know I am right!
- Mike Martz on how the feels about the fans
i'd rather have a chance to get calls right
especially scoring plays.
part of me thinks every TD should be reviewed just because.
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it. -George Halas
i'd actually go the other way and do away with replays and all challenges
the games would get longer and longer, and not because they were playing more
"I am a sinner who does not expect forgiveness. But I am not a government official." - Francis Wolcott
i'd rather wait 10 seconds and get it right
than move quickly on to the next thing.
but only on scoring plays. not on first down spots or crap.
there are enough commerical breaks already, they couldn’t slow down the game any further.
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it. -George Halas
Na wouldnt agree
with challenging all (are the close) TD plays….Would slow down the game way to much…..Would watch baseball and hope the Cubs win a game than want that IMO…..
Boo all you want but you know what….Deep down you know I am right!
- Mike Martz on how the feels about the fans
that keeps dumbass coaches from abusing the privilege - i'd say the rule is good
"I am a sinner who does not expect forgiveness. But I am not a government official." - Francis Wolcott
yes, sometimes
"I am a sinner who does not expect forgiveness. But I am not a government official." - Francis Wolcott
i wish the booth would review everything
and stop play if they want the refs on the field to look. keep a coaches challenge, but have the guys upstairs keeping tabs anyway.
also, the extra point being kicked shouldn’t be considered “too late” to challenge. especially since the coaches views vary dependign on the stadium. i am echoing waddle’s thoughts, but i agree with them.
yeah
i like how college will buzz down and review a play. i don’t hate that plan.
i just wish there were a way to get a second look at something outside of 2 minute drills.
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it. -George Halas
That wouldnt be
bad…..how college does it…..
But human error adds to the excitement of the game…..Just ask MLB…..

the human element
is probably the most annoying argument in sports to me.
ugh. gets completely under my skin
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it. -George Halas
the human element
is the guys playing the game.
jusgign what happend should be as close to scientific as possible.
there will always be a "human element"
because humans will make the decisons but if you’re going to say every inch matters give the human a second look at it.

Thats why
we need cyborgs with super computers to ref games…..Just so long as they promise not to enslave the human race……

How come coaches dont have Ipads or some tablet PC
Seems like it wouldn’t be hard for the Tech people to push the play to a handheld on the sidelines in near realtime. Give a coach 2 quick looks and then decide if he throws the flag. The tech is available to do this, is that just too new school for NFL high ups?
I personally think the challenge system is exactly right, remember instant replay 1.0 as we all sat and waited seemingly forever for rulings.

you'd have to get the stadium raw feed
because the home team controls the replays the coaches see.
or the broadcast feed, which is also inconsistent.
Yup the raw feeds off the cameras
and each team would have a pro video guy who could chop out the play and push it out over a dedicated Wimax or LTE pipe right to the sidelines. Would require 100 grand+ in video gear for nothing more than a few replays so maybe this idea needs some refinements, I will get back to you on this.

Brady loves to nickel and nckel you some more to death.
He is going to eat our coverage if we do not play press coverage. You have to collapse the pocket up the middle on Brady. He is not much of a scrambler. However, he sure can side step and step up in the pocket.
He's a REALLY slow runner, but when he gets options

The key is redirecting those routes from their WRs

Seriously, I never trust Lovie versus good AFC teams, but the Pats are just destroying. I could easily forsee a 3 or 4 pick game for Cutler.
I only hope that I am entirely wrong and that the short week and traveling has a serious effect on the Pats because DAMN they look unbeatable tonight.

I think Lovie's defense is best equiped for the Pats
We’ll rush with 4 and if he picks us apart, so be it. The keys is roughing up those receivers and asking our offense and Hester to be great. It’s possible
Yeah but it worked!
Yeah I am hoping that Martz is watching tonight
Because I think he can figure out how to use Knox or Bennett like the Jets are using Holmes tonight (Holmes has like 80 or 90 yards). The keys will be beating the blitz and staying balanced to keep Brady off the field. On defense it should be similar game plan to the Eagles, get pressure with 4 and tackle, tackle TACKLE!! Pats rely on yards after catch.

So true.
If Cutler and co. are on their game, the defense doesn’t have to be perfect. I never thought I’d see myself saying that.

But seriously, with the time he’s had to throw the ball throughout his career, shouldn’t he be great? Seriously?

issue i have is the bears line hasn’t produced a tone of pressure outside the eagles game.
the pats would beat anyone tonight.
He should be grateful.
To have had an owner and coach that understand the fundementals of football and realize that a QB, no matter how great in potential, cannot and will not succeed without an offensive line. He didn’t win his Super Bowl rings with great receivers or running backs. He had a great defense behind him and always had a great offensive line in front of him. Jerry Angelo…take note.

Well this Sunday's game is why we got Cutler...
To compete with the big boys. You don’t want a game manager Sunday, you want a big time arm in a big game. Jay can make his plans for a trip to the Pro-Bowl if he pulls this off Sunday. We’ll see.

You're sold now?
He’s been the best for about ten years now.
"He's a great candidate," Ryan said. "If I hadn't made him drop in coverage so often on running backs, he might be the all-time sack leader. They call it zone blitzing nowadays. We called it, 'Richard, pick him up.'" - Buddy Ryan on Richard Dent's HOF chances.

High 23 Low 5

Does it help or hurt??
"Better lucky than Good", but we are good! We really are..
I say help
Depends on the footing for their Wrs. If we can run the ball we have a shot
Yeah but it worked!
So true.
I think that gives us an edge, though. I haven’t seen our guys slipping that much. Non-grass teams (e.g., the Eagles) are gonna have a harder time there
The Pats are known for playing big in those kinds of games.
I’m guessing most of those said games were played in Foxboro though. If the conditions are like that it should make for a pretty entertaining game and hopefully slows their offense down a bit.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
Didn't the Pats put up 50+ points

as someone who has said all season that the Jets were horiffically overrated
this is an “I told you so” game. While I do believe that they are a good team they are no where near as good as a lot of pundits say they are. I relished this beat down but am terrified that this Pats team is coming to town this Sunday. Hopefully the Bears are up to the challenge.

rubbing it in so the other team gets pissed
and tries to hurt your star qb because of it?? Not to smart
"Better lucky than Good", but we are good! We really are..
Bellicheck is a run up the score guy
He’s not afraid of being a dick. In this case, I think he’s especially doing it because he hates the Jets and wants to embarrass them.

I think we can beat the Patriots
1. They will be on a short week.
2. Soldier field turf
3. We are good at stopping the run, thus making the Patriots one-dimensional
4. Hester will take 1 to the house. Setting the return record at home.
5. The Patriots will have a letdown after this big win.
I forgot to add
Everyone will pick against DA BEARS and we all know DA BEARS thrive in the underdog role.
Dude...
Can you imagine how awesome it’s going to be when we beat these guys? Ahhh…

Anyone know what uni's the Bears are planning on wearing next week
Can we talk the Pat’s into wearing the red throwbacks, the red uni’s they wore in superbowl XX? We wear the Orange tops and we are unstoppable. Is there somewhere that lists this or are the uni’s some kind of near gameday decision?

by Bears-Cubs Bulls on Dec 6, 2010 10:36 PM CST reply actions
We'll be in our normal home garb I assume
We aren’t doing the orange unis this year (because of the ‘40s throwbacks) so no chance of that. Plus teams don’t usually wear throwbacks on the road.

jets = massively overrated
pats are very good, no doubt, but this game exposed the jets as frauds. they barely beat a bunch of bad teams. and sanchez…maybe not as awesome as the analysts say he is. the fact that they put up 3 vs. the pats D says a lot. if our front 4 plays the way it is capable of, it should be a great game on sunday. and given how badly we played in the first half on sunday, i think its pretty likely we come out insanely on-point on D in this game.
Agreed, the Jets aren't the tea, they claim to be
Embarrassed is what happened tonight. I thought a Ryan coached defense was incapable of being blown out? Ryan should have dropped 7 or more defenders into coverage as Brady had plenty of time despite the consent but ineffective Jet blitzes. Did Revis even play tonight? I don’t remember his name being called. Total failure from the Jets, we gotta show up in force next sunday, its going to take a total team effort to get the job done on Brady and Co.

Can we beat this team?
Yesterday I thought we could. Now I’m not so sure…
Vic Koenning is my homeboy.
i think the way we do beat them
takes a serious effort to chew up as much clock as possible, and leave their offense on the side lines most of the game. keep our d fresh, and what ever we do lets not kick them the ball first.
Bill Swerski: Alright, alright! Now, let me shift gears here for a moment. What is God's role in this? Obviously, he's rooting for Da Bears.
by LightsOutVegas on Dec 6, 2010 11:09 PM CST up reply actions
Yes, but you have to keep the ball away from them
The Patriots jumped out to the early lead, and I think that New York let go of their ground game way too early. Tomlinson and especially Greene were running ball effectively, they should have stayed with that and given Sanchez some more play action short passes based on the running game than they did. You can’t win a land war in Asia and you can’t win a passing war with Brady. The New England defense is getting better, but it’s still vulnerable and a bit soft up the middle. While the Bears aren’t great between the tackles, the offense has been very good at controlling the clock.
Oh that and you have to do anything you can to hit Brady. Early and often. This is a lot easier said than done. I do think that our linebackers give us a better matchup than the Jets had. But getting in this guy’s head is something other teams rarely do. If the DL can do this at least a bit the Bears have a chance.

Yup and that was Tommie Harris 1.0
When he actually played like a player who wanted to be a star. The guy we have now is something else. Not sure if the injuries just took their toll or if the guy just isn’t hungry now that he is a millionaire. Either way he is just another tackle these days and that might be giving him too much credit.

Hopefully, the Lions can continue their momentum against us into the game and defeat the overrated Pack.

Dont forget the Packers have some tough games ahead as well
The Lions, the Patriots, the Giants, then Bears to wrap it up. The Packers could easily drop at least one of these games if not two. I could easily see the Packers losing the Giants game, they beat the Lions and the Pats (Rodgers shreads the weak Pats secondary) meaning we win the next three and that game at Lambeau is meaningless in terms of the NFC North, right?

Adrian Pedestrian!! Now that's funny Mr. Bayless...
Actually seeing quite well including the stats for 14 full weeks of football
Where the Patriots have given up over 3000 yards is passing yards to their opponents this season. Pats are ranked 31st out of 32nd and only because they had a good game against the Jets. Not to mention they give up close to 400 combined yards a game, again ranked 31st out of 32nd.
Basically they are the worst team in football as far as giving up yardage per game. They are still winning because of Tom Brady, plain and simple.
Who is blind now?

Well I know my brethren has given you the stats for yards already
and although that may be a bit skewed due to NE winning all the time and teams having to throw to catch up, You opposing QB rating is 87.3 or ranked 20th in the NFL. Better than the stat line for yardage but definitely below average. Yet even with that you are giving up 114 yards per game on the ground and an average of 4.3 per carry and ranked 19th against the run. I guess you can have a below average defense when you have one of the best offenses in the league and aruably the best QB.
"Better lucky than Good", but we are good! We really are..
Yeah that can definitely happen
I think the bears will go 2-1 and the pack will go 1-2. That would mean the bears are 11-4 and the cheeseheads are 10-5. Do the bears win the tiebreaker if they lose the final regular season game?

If the Pack go 1-2 and we go 2-1....
Then they will be 9-6 and we will be 11-4, and week 17 likely won’t mean anything, unless we are competing for a bye week with NYG or the Eagles.
I think
BB has had Brady listed as questionable for every game since like 2005.
You must have me confused with someone else, I have never been to Chicago.
