The Bears Den: September 22, 2010

I’ve heard of Qb controversy
But do we really have a LT controversy?
Lmao wow.
Williams and Omiyale both look to be capable starters at LT.
And Frankie definately looks better at LT than he has anywhere else.
I’m anxious to see how Tice handles this

Schefter had retweeted Judd Zulgad saying that Hank Baskett was on his way to Minnesota, but now there’s no evidence of that tweet in his feed.

Otherwise he may have passed for 797 yards.

except for the bears, in the context that they beat the cowboys.

i get the the feeling that there’s going to be people out there who think we’re not undefeated next week . even if we are.

Biggs on the Score:

- Doesnt think that Hester will get yanked on PR

- Would like to see a PR rotation with Hester so Hester would not have to carry the load. Thinks it might help

- Thinks Hester still is the same player on PR but blockers are not that great on ST now

- Toub showed him 10 PR from last season where Hester was one block from springing it for a TD

- So much turn over on ST from year to year has hurt IHO

- Bennett is next in line on PR then Knox 3rd PR

- Thinks ST this year is a concern for Bears

- Maynard not having good year

- Out of top 8 ST players for Bears last year 4 are now gone

- Is Assuming Cilliams will not play today. Had MRI yesterday so should know more today he thinks

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Pompei on the Score

- Hard to gauge teams this early in the season so not sure where Bears are

- What Bears did was impressive though. D looked good and was physical. Cutler had best game as a Bear he thought

- Thinks Cutler is handling pressure well compared to last year

- Thinks pack is a super bowl team but they are having issues

- Thinks pack passing game is not as potent as last season. Secondary a little banged up

- Doesnt think pack will run well against other teams without grant

- Bears and pack are closer to eachother ATM than people thought

- Mentions how the top 2 – 0 teams were tops in passing and were not running that much at the moment compared to past seasons

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Mike Lombardi on the Score

- Thought Martz Cutler union was marriage made in heaven

- Cutler needed to be challenged intellectually when it came to offense and matchups. Martz provides that

- Never thought it would not work between Martz and Cutler but O line stinks and he had questions on D

- Think Bears weakness is defense as Tillman is getting attacked constantly

- Front 7 is good but not unblockable. They will run into a team that will take it to them eventually

- Thinks Martz gets it in that Hester is not randy moss (ie #1WR). Knows Hester is more of a welker (ie slot WR) type. Both big plays to Hester came from the slot Sunday

- Thinks Hester can be great slot WR

- Tice has instilled a toughness to O line

- cowboys did Bears a favor by blitzing. Made the Bears adjust to quick passes

- If cowboys stuck to rushing 4 thinks they could of won 1 on 1 match ups on that O line

- Both Mikes doing great job by hiding O line weaknesses. They know the O line stinks.

Oh, you tease you…

Someone looking a lot like veteran Hank Baskett arrived on the practice field a few minutes after stretching Wednesday afternoon. Rookie tight end Mickey Shuler wasn’t on the field. The team hasn’t confirmed anything, but you can reasonably guess what the transaction was. LINK >>

Not sure if anyone else has, but it’s looks pretty cool. If the 85 Bears don’t win, I’m making Bristol the Grand Canyon East.

Link Shuffles on through.
