  • Bears @ Falcons

    Did anyone else see that game today? Unbelievable. How easily the Bears could be 6-0 right now if they could finish out games. But one bright spot is Kyle Orton. He is looking more and more like the quarterback he was in college. I had my doubts going into the season but so far I'm glad to see that they are playing pretty well.

    It it almost as frustrating being a Bears fan as it must be as a Cubs fan.
    They seem to be in position to win every game but make mistakes and can't stop the big plays when they need to. Their schedule should allo them to win their division, and I also like the development of Orton as a quarterback.

      Today was hard to take.....why kick a short ball on the kick-off with 11 secs left?

        Have to disagree about the schedule allowing the Bears to win the division. I think the division is Green Bays for the taking.

          I disagree w/ the cubs fan thing...
          mainly because the bears were supposed to be terrible this year...and are playing WAY above expectations.

          cubs games are only ruined in September all throughout the game...bears games are only depressing every few weeks in the 4th quarter...TOTALLY DIFFERENT...haha

          agreed on the ORton comment...he looks big time
          agreed on the division...NFC North = weak bears = capable to win it

          they squib kicked it hopeing the middle guys would just fall on it and not run. It makes sense if the team is up by a touchdown...HOWEVER...atlanta needed a FG to win...you want to keep that ball away from the endzone. I understand Lovie's choice on that one...but can't agree with it

          it should be mentioned though that Matt Ryan did have a FANTASTIC throw. I hate falcons and almost everything they stand for...and love the bears and everything they stand for...but I need to admit that that was a pretty nice pass

          oh well
          tough loss...but chicago is used to those after the flop of both baseball teams

            Just curious, you hate the Falcons and everything they stand for. What do they stand for? Also can't say the Sox flopped. They were rated behind the Tigers and Indians, but won their division. Then got beat by the team with the best record in the AL, and actually won 1 game.

              I have a feeling the answer will be something about dogfighting, although the lone person known to be involved with that is obviously no longer with the team.

                That's what I figured too, Scouter. Hard to blame the organization though. Seems like for the last several years every team has had at least one bad apple.

                  I actually pity the Falcons organization and their fans. First they have to deal with the whole Vick/Dogfighting situation then they hire a new coach in Bobby Pitrino who turns out to be a complete scumbag and bails out with three games left in the season. I was just as disappointed as anyone yesterday that the Bears lost, but it doesn't make me hate the Falcons.

                      Aren't all the NFC south teams expansion teams as well? I know Tampa and New Orleans have been around since the 70's, but still...

                        When you really think about it, aren't ALL sports teams expansion teams...?

                        Connor, I'm curious as to why you have such hatred toward an entire division.

                          Well, the Bears are not an expansion team.

                            Falcons for the recent loss

                            Tampa Bay for the less recent loss (and the fact that they played REAAAALLY dirty)

                            Carolina: Playoffs 2006

                            Saints: never been a big fan. Didn't like their team the way it was set up. their overall game play is not how I like football.


                            so i don't hate the "division" i just have separate reasons for hating each team...more of a coincidence
