didnt look to bad a few drives, but got down so quick had to go away from the run, granted forte couldnt do that either
You should know he was overrated. Never made the playoffs, never finished the season with a winning record. Choked harder than a prostitute last season. I wouldn't say they'd be this bad, but people predicted them to win the superbowl. Really?
I have disagree by a hair. That honor goes to the Carolina Panthers (and Jake Delhomme) who are probably the most disappointing team in the league this year. (The Chargers were only 8-8, last year, while the Bucs and Dolphins essentially overachieved. Also, the Dolphins might've benefitted from the Jets meltdown and NWE's loss of Giselle's husband). They only had 2 points at the halfway points of the 4th quarter against a fairly below average defense. They've got weapons all over the field, one top 10 receiver and great complimentary ones with two of the better RBs in the league with a solid OL. They've only scored over 20 points, 3 times this year, against the Bucs, Redskins, and Falcons. Outside of the Redskins, those aren't stalwart defenses. But, the Bears are probably 2nd or 3rd, offensively. The Panthers often have trouble scoring, even against the worst teams...but they can move the balls and have play makers littered over the field. The Bears can score points, often on Cutler's arm, but they do have alot of trouble moving the ball, consistently with no go to guys.
Yeah its close, but everyone was predicting this offensive juggernaut in Chicago fueled by Cutler. Nobody was saying Delhomme was going to be putting up Tom Brady numbers.
Our D didn't play good neither but I expected big things out of our Offense and it just hasn't happened this year. Michael Turner is not running with any type of authority.
Edit : Forgot to mention that Our D was number 3 in scoring coming into this game so they have done better than I thought they would this year.
I really didn't hear alot of that about Cutler, either, at least not on ESPN and fans in general. People thought they would be better than what they were, but would still struggle at times with no go to receivers. I believe Titans are done, while Carolina is headed that way. But the Bears still have a solid chance at the playoffs, if they go 6-4 or better with 4 very winnable games against the Lions, 49ers, Browns, and Rams.
Perhaps not, but the fantasy gurus were hyping up Cutler as the savior of the Bears Offense who was going to turn Greg Olsen into a Pro Bowl TE, Earl Bennett into a stud, and Matt Forte would be even better than last season.
I left Boldin on the bench today due his injury. Should have started him. My entire WR core had a bye this week so I had to go with Lance Moore, Nicks and Massaquoi
ok... ill go ahead and say it... on that "greatest moment in tailgating" commercial set in 1952... how unrealistic is it that a black guy is out there with two white guys at giants stadium? I mean seriously. Do these people not read history books?
