I hate you all

OK, not ALL of you. Just the ones who have made thread after thread blaming everything and everybody for today's loss EXCEPT the people who are responsible (in large).

Football is a team sport, so the TEAM lost. But if you want to call for somebody's head, look no further than Jason Baker and the gunners on the punt team and then turn your head to Mare. No, not the missed 50 yarder. But for not kicking the ball out of the back of the end zone EVERY time. The one time he let Hester return it, it turned into the Bears having the ball around mid-field to set up an easy TD drive.

Get the ST fixed and we're fine. Yeah, our run D sucks, but our best two LBs are done for the year. That is to be expected.

Also, Naanee deserves the hate. I want his head as well.

But for the love of god, quit blaming the play-calling (it was fantastic today. Our offense is FAR from the problem), Rivera (not his fault, clowns), Hurney (wtf?), or whoever else is being unfairly blamed.

Almost anyone with half a brain will tell you that Chudzinki;s playcalling is borderline erratic at times. Especially in the endzone.

I wouldn't say that. I mean, there are calls where we go "...what?" but that is every OC in the league. They all make crazy calls at times. But when you have 500+ yards of offense...that isn't JUST execution. It is scheme. The play-calling is fine.

Let's take the Rivera 6-plays theory (in no particular order)

1) PR for a TD

2) KR to midfield that set up another Chicago TD

3) Blocked FG

4) Missed FG

5) Pick 6 (hit Naanee in the hands, have to catch it)

6) Forte's run on the last possession (yeah, short field, but defense can't give up that big of a play in that type of situation)

Now, if you look at that, 4 of those plays are special teams. One is on our worst receiver right now and the other is due to a lack of our best LBs.

Bitching about coaching and playcalling and saying THAT is what cost us the game is pure ignorance.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
