    Ffs why another little dunk to forte when you have eighteen yards to make up? All year we've seen that kind of play calling.

    Lobbed pass to Megatron.

    It was always going to be.

    After an uncharacteristically inventive, tough start, trest and Tucker have clearly decided to return to their usual game plan.

    Missed the first half, another sterling effort by our defense I see, held them to 24.

    They started ok actually and got agood turnover. Johnson, basically, is the problem. Fuller is sticking to him but what can you do, a rookie against him?

    Alright bears, change some things up. They figured us out after a couple of drives in the last half and the fear I'd have, from experience, is that we have no other plan. That's how it's looking.

    Was ok from Cutler. Seems like Bushrod is having trouble at LT there.

    Yeah that was a pretty good drive in fairness, maybe ishould calm down, but the second quarter had melt down written all over it. Funny enough a short pass on third and three there would have gotten a first down that would have put us in a dangerous position.

    So that's what a defensive 3-and-out looks like.

    As someone has pointed out, Cutler can't (probably) throw and INT on a screen

    Tight call there and with it being the end of the quarter the Lions have plenty of time to review it. It was very close if not a td. I wouldn't criticise the official there, looked like it didn't get across on the first effort.

    I am in fact changing to the Cowboys, its not quite December yet.

    Has to be a TD here. Think I'd even start going for it on 4th down.

    I dunno what's worse than sucking but we have thirteen minutes to find out. God almighty how horribly predictable our defence is, the sheer lack of ingenuity is startling.

    And more DeCamillis magic on special teams, because why wouldn't there be? My guess here is a first down followed by a penalty for ten yards followed by two screens for a couple of yards and a punt.

    Q: Have you noticed that every Jay Cutler touchdown and interception looks the same? Chucks it up into coverage, either the receiver makes a play or it gets picked. I came up with a nickname for it: “Jay and Pray.”
    —Brian D, San Diego

    BS: Shouldn’t “Jay-and-Pray” just be 50 percent of their offense? Lean on Matt Forte for runs and screens, send the big receivers over the middle every so often, then spend the rest of the time unleashing Jay-and-Prays? I fully support Chicago embracing San Francisco’s early-1990s Tecmo Bowl offense.

    Wow, that actually managed to be far too optimistic.

    Like a bunch of fairies out there prancing around the receivers. Then congratulating each other when they eventually make a tackle after a 15 yard gain.

    Pure embarrassing.
