COMING FOR CUTLER

...and falling short as usual.

So who is the best  Bears reveiver? Aromashodu is the guy who came on strong at the end of last season. However, Bennett is the most well rounded receiver for the Bears. At the same time, supposedly Hester is the best option as far as getting open.

IMO, Hester would be a great slot reveiver while Aromashidou and Bennett would be the deep threats. Olsen, Davis, and Clark are all tight ends who can catch the ball, maybe one of them can move to fullback. Either way, Martz is dissecting his team right now, and things are going to be interesting.

Matt Forte.  I'd love it if Martz would actually throw to the tight ends, but I dont' see it happen.  Knox is probably their best recieving option, but he's not gettting the ball thrown to him much.  Forte will play the Marshall Faulk role in Martz's offense.  I'm not saying as well, but he will be the go to drop down guy even more so than past years.  Hopefully it will be enough to open up deep options for some of the other guys.

I agree about Forte playing the Faulk role. I think the most complete receiver that the Bears have is Bennett, maybe Aromashodu. My only problem with Knox is that he seems to get gator arms or just seems to play very timid when he approaches contact.

Did anyone see the bears game today?

Wow. I think I've witnessed the worst call in the history of sports. And I'm not exagerating, it's the worst call I've seen in my life, any sporting event. The bears should have lost. Calvin Johnson had the touchdown easy, and I hate detroit.

YES!!!! i know im a lion homer but that was the worst call ever, when he got up that was the second act chicago always get favorable calls at home but this is too much

[cselby]

Definitely one of the worst calls in the history of sports. That ref must have been on mushrooms or some sh*t.

[vitalnerve]

wasn't really the refs fault, they called it as it is meant to be called according to the rule book.  one of those tuck rule things, just doesn't make a lot of sense.

If Chicago plays like that again, maybe they could win 1 more game this season.

[Mild Sauce]

^ I agree somewhat. It was in important situations that they played horribly. They beat the Lions up on both sides of the ball as far as statistics go, but if they're going to get down the field and then either turn the ball over or screw up a 1st and less than 1 without even a fumble or interception, then they're not going to be winning much.

As for the call, it's a stupid rule, and several years ago one of those went against the Bears, one went against Oakland early last year too, so it's not like the Lions are the only team who've been hit by it. It should've been fixed long ago, but either way, rules are rules, and technically the referee got the call right based on the stupid rule.

[Mild Sauce]

Can we get a Green Bay sucks chant going?

[Mild Sauce]

Bears are 7-3 now, how do you think they finish? I'm guessing anywhere from 9-7 to 11-5. I think they'll beat both the Lions and Vikings, but outside of that the best I see them doing is picking up a couple of lucky or surprise wins.

wow. Bears are doing great this year. But the question remains, can they beat the Lions without the zebras?

[Mild Sauce]

They just did. I admit that the hit wasn't a personal foul, but it was on par with the calls that quarterbacks around the league have been given, and at full speed it looked like an illegal hit, which is what the officials have to work with. Throw that in with the reputation Suh gave himself in the preseason and it makes sense. On top of that, it's not like that call gave the game to the Bears. They would've probably gotten those yards either way, it really only gave the Lions more time later on.
