Just need balance...

BTM · 11-18-2010, 11:40 AM

Do we get this on NFL or WGN?

Black Sheep · 11-18-2010, 11:42 AM

You would think both, but maybe just NFL network

BTM · 11-18-2010, 11:43 AM

I set it to record on both...I think we might be blacked out on NFL so WGN gets the local ratings

gary88 · 11-18-2010, 12:22 PM

WGN.

Bears 6 Miami 3

UdubBadger · 11-18-2010, 12:24 PM

wait is on WGN? I though only NFL network carries Thursday Night Football

ragingclue · 11-18-2010, 12:31 PM

5-0?

I think NFL defers to local market channels, but on my guide it's listed on both channels

UdubBadger · 11-18-2010, 12:37 PM

interesting. Was thinking I'd have to go out to watch it. Maybe I can stay home now.

Well the score is 16-0 in favor of Da Bears at the end of the 3rd quarter. Greg Olsen has looked good (wink@BTM) as well as Forte. Cutler has got away with some bad passes though should have been like 3 interceptions instead of just 1.

I'll give you that, Olsen had a good game, but he still didn't block. I'm glad Martz is able to use him, as he is notorious for using TE for blocking only.

Eh...He isn't perfect at blocking (especially chip blocks)...but I just love the fact that we actually were able to RUN the ball....wish we could get redzone td's together....

UdubBadger · 11-19-2010, 01:10 AM

He's barely a TE... hes an oversized WR

Is it just me, or are the bears the worst 7-3 team in the NFL haha.

Every time they get another win, I think "how the hell did they swing that" haha
(and yes, Im a huge Bears fan. I just think were on an interesting ride right now)

Without a doubt, but you could be the worst team to ever win a division or wildcard, and all that matters is that you have your big boy britches on by the time the playoffs roll around.

That being said, the Lions will beat them in Detroit this year.

Not gonna happen. As long as we control the clock on the offense and our defense plays like last night we won't have problems against Detroit..

It will be a good game. Your defense will play well.

However, you can't really say your defense played stellar against that offense. With all due respect, that's probably the worst offensive lineup that has taken the field in the NFL in a long time. There are high school teams that probably could have shut Miami out with those guys on the field. The Michigan defense probably would have done just fine against them. Ok, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but I'm sure you get the point.

It all boils down to your offensive line. Which one will show up? If they take that day off against Detroit like they have in so many games so far, it's going to be a tough game for Cutler.

...and why would you say that you "wouldn't have any problems against Detroit" when you guys only walked away with a victory at home because of rulebook verbiage? I seem to recall you guys controlled the clock just fine in that game, and your defense did play extremely well.... And Detroit sure did give you "problems" at home, so I'd expect more of the same on December 5th.

Hence my caveat "defense plays like they did last night" ie: 6 sacks, 1 interception. Granted we need to play like that the ENTIRE game and not relax in the 4th quarter like we did in the first game against Detroit.

I'm saying it doesn't make a difference how your defense plays. Last time, you held us to 1.0yds/rush and 4.4yds/pass, forced two fumbles (one on the Detroit 1 yard line), had two sacks, one interception, and injured a starting QB. I'd say that's a pretty good game defensively.

Like I said, it's up to the Bears offense, and specifically their offensive line, to win or lose the game in Detroit. The Bears defense will play well; we can count on that.
