Ayup. Agreed on all counts. And I'm sorry Iggles, but we all knew crybaby Vince Young and Mike Kafka as your backups would bite you in the ass... but so soon?
Meant to say earlier, sorry about your bad week nevermore.
That's a great gif, Roger! Smart move, too!
To be fair, a lot of QBs don't wear mouthpieces so they can call the plays/ snap more clearly.
Dear bunch of drunken morons masquerading as the Chicago Football Bears' offensive line,
You sorry little ingrates are a damn joke. Three, three straight plays that end in a sack. You are letting guys through untouched every play. Cutler is on pace for taking 80+ sacks. You are all terrible.
Dear Mike Martz,
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU. You remember the end of last season? When you won 7 out of your last nine? Want to know something? In those seven wins, you ran more than you passed, you worthless shitheel. Instead you're back to your cutesy misdirection bullshit and you called 52 passes to 11 rushes. And don't try to feed us all some bullshit spin about needing to pass by necessity. The game wasn't out of control at 10:02 in the 3rd, when Turk McBride annihilated Cutler and stripped him. The score was 16 - 13. And at that point, you had called 29 passes and 10 runs. That's, you know, just about a 3:1 ratio. On a day when Forte was averaging 4.9 yards a carry. You are the fucking worst.
Dear Lovie Smith,
I hope you took notes from your bye week come-to-Jesus meeting with the aforementioned shitkicker Martz last season. Don't wait until the bye week this year, for the love of Christ. You need to have that meeting with him now. As a matter of fact, have that meeting every week, just to make sure he remembers that running is allowed in football and that Devin Hester is not a #1 receiver so stop lining up in the fucking Wildcat. Make him get run plays tattooed on him like the dude from Memento. Make him wear a shock collar on his nutsack that zaps his testicles with sweet, sweet electric fury when he calls a seven-step drop. Whatever it takes, just fucking get it done before Cutler's looking like this:
Dear Jerry Angelo,
YOU -- YOU are the reason this offensive line exists. You can't draft for shit. The wide receiving group is woefully undersized and undertalented. And the one player on offense worth a damn can't seem to get you to pay him what he deserves. There is no logical reason why you still have a job in this town.
Dear Matt Forte,
God, you kick so much ass. I hope you get your money. The Bears need to pay you the dollars. All the dollars.
Dear Cutler,
Please don't die. In any event, take out a life insurance policy.
Dear Troy Aikman and Joe Buck,
Cutler throwing a fucking perfect pass hitting Dane Sanzenbacher in the numbers is not a fucking bad pass by Jay Cutler. Everything going wrong with the offense is not Cutler's goddamn fault. If the team had a wideout who could get off of a jam, or (even better) an offensive line that could pick up a fucking blitz every once in a while, or an offensive coordinator that remembered where the running plays were in his playbook ... well, gee golly fuckin' whiz, Cutler would probably look a lot better.
In short,

In short,
Just musing about the passing game in the NFL these days...Tony Romo avgs 344 yards a game passing...and he's SIXTH in yardage and SEVENTH in the NFL in passer rating! Two players are avging more than 420 a game! This has become such a passing league...its not uncommon for teams to not rush more than 15-18 times a game now. My favorite players all used to be rushers in the 80s and 90s, now I can't even find one that's worth watching.
RAMA
RAMA
He got a concussion. The tongue thing wasn't what kept him out of the game.
I thought Kafka did a fine job. I don't think he's NFL ready, but he looks capable in a backup role.
God, the NFL thread is worth following for your takes on the Bears alone.
If he were a KC fan he probably would have had a stroke yesterday.
Okay...
The first thing we do is cut that fucker Greg Salas. Geez, dude! What are you doing?? You cost us at least 10 points in a 12 point loss.
Second, they need to penalize fake injuries. WTF, refs?
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/blog/sh...-feign-simultaneous-injuries-t?urn=nfl-wp7507
Third, we need to pray to whatever God is listening that Steven Jackson recovers quickly. Our red zone offense is terrible.
Lastly, we need to have every player who commits a defensive penalty run 100 laps. We gave the Giants so many extra chances.
Just a dismal performance all the way around.

Wow. The announcers were just TRASHING KC by the end of their debacle this week against the Lions...

Despite all the penalties, long road trip after a Monday night roadie, and near complete defensive collapse in the second half, the Raiders still had themselves a winnable game at the end.
That last Buffalo drive was the type that defenses who get into the playoffs, stop.
The Raiders are going to have to either cut down on the penalties or learn to win in spite of.
On an up note, Denarius Moore - A Star Is Born.

I love how the Lions drove up the score board in that game.
Lovie Smith said that he "never thought" of pulling Cutler in the final minutes of Sunday's game, even though Cutler was basically lining up in front of a firing squad on every snap.
Jesus Christ. At this point, I want Cutler to drive over to Halas Hall, steal everything from the facility that he possibly can, take a massive, rotten-egg-smelling shit on Jerry Angelo's desk, and then take the rest of the year off. This team doesn't deserve him and it sucks to watch him nearly get murdered, week in and week out, when he could be so good.

I have to give Cutler credit for being the "good soldier". Part of me wishes he'd snap and take Bears management to task for lack of any real support on the OL, not to mention getting rid of such an important cog as Kreutz. Maybe he's just not that type of person or he feels he still has to get farther away from last season's playoff controversy.
But how in the world did this team just a week ago completely dismantle a very good Falcons team?

The line would still be terrible if Kreutz were around -- remember, Cutler ate 52 sacks last year. Kreutz's value, at this point in his career, is as a locker room leader, as he'd been the real captain of the ship for quite some time.
The problem is that Jerry Angelo has steadfastly refused to actually put any sort of investment in the line, and he's acted like that ever since he took the GM position. He seems to completely lack any understanding of the concept that no, you can not, in fact, throw five random dudes on the line and expect them to block in a capable fashion.

To be fair, I'm not sure he could say he thought about pulling Cutler. That's essentially saying, "Yeah our O-Line sucks and I decided our backup QB is someone nobody cares about, so let's have him risk a painful career ending injury instead."
It just looks bad for everyone. At least with Cutler, he can say something like "I wanted the best team in to have a chance of winning." He can pretend he has some faith in the line rather than no faith in the line and an indifference to the backup QB.

Except he did pull Cutler during the later parts of games last season (like when the Patriots were torching them), so it's not like it's a new concept. It's Lovie Smith, he doesn't throw anyone under the bus.
If he had pulled Cutler on Sunday, all he needed to say was, "We decided that it would be good for Caleb Hanie and some of the other guys to get some reps against a very talented team such as the Saints." Instead, by saying that he never even considered pulling him, he basically said, "Yep, even though he was sacked six times and hit sixteen, we thought it was fine to keep him out there."

More and more, I feel like Lovie is a really gutless head coach who just tows the company line.
Absolutely no passion or spirit in the guy. It's obvious during every post-game interview.
I'm not saying we need another over-the-top late era Ditka, but someone with a little energy, passion for winning and a sore loser, would be nice.
