And....

“He would be impressive if you’re talking about him as a veteran football player with what he’s been able to do,” Smith said, “picking up a new offense, and they have a multiple offensive set they’re running.

“You can talk forever about most of the stuff he’s been doing has never been done. But to go without an offseason and for a rookie to come in and make the plays and be able to handle an offense like that, no one has ever done it like this, so we’re in uncharted waters right now with him.”

Damn I like hearing this kind of stuff about a Panther's QB, even if it's pregame 'pump him up into complacency' talk. :D

Urlacher's seen a few good Quarterbacks in his time, too.

Oh no! Bears players and beat writers being confident! The hell you say! I swear, some beat writer somewhere else could say our helmets are ugly and some of you would take offense.

I just have a feeling we are going to stomp the Bears into the ground this year. Every time we play the Bears they smack talk us and say there better and in the past Fox kept the games close so it didnt hurt there feeling much. This year I think Rivera lets us stomp them into the ground without mercy.

They sure can cover our own team more then Panther local media covers them.

[CRA]

all I know, is I long for the day to see us dominate a team on offense like we did to the Bucs on MNF in 2008. Not sure we will that this year....but I can't wait for Cam to go off one day w/ a complete game.

I'm really glad we have a group of players who keep their mouth shut(publicly), and that's why we're gonna be their asses.

[CatMan72]

LOL, Cam is Daunte's size but can juke Urlacher right out of his shoes...

[CatMan72]

Yeah, these Bears players need to STFU and just play... If you're really that good then you don't need to talk about it, just go do it.

“Winning” offense

Based on what members of the Bears’ defense are seeing, the Chicago offense can most assuredly be successful, probably on every snap. Then again, it should be, considering it’s not facing the Falcons, Saints or Packers.

If I'm not mistaken, the Bears lead the league in all manner of offensive suckery. 3 & outs, punts, etc. Plus Cutler is completing like 47-48% of his passes. I'm not counting the Bears out, but I think we have a much better chance than we are really being given.

I like this Urlacher quote better :

What happened out there Brian???

"Steve Smith, that's what happened to us. He just kept making plays. We had a plan. We never really doubled him. We ran a lot of Cover 2, and obviously that didn't work out too good for us." -
