Without looking at the stats, I felt last year when the Bears played the Seahawks Russel Wilson kind of came out of nowhere to own that game. So, I went back and looked at his numbers from the game and it was probably his best stat game of the year. 23-37, for 293 yards, 2 TD 0 int. His highest yards of the year. Then, another 71 yards rushing, his second highest of the year.

If you remember the 2 drives by Seattle. one to tie it up and the next to win in OT. Wilson was running around and there was not a Bear player with a breath left in the 4th quarter.

The 71 yards is the classic Lovie 2 deep safety play. Take all the yards you want, but we will stop you from getting into the endzone! Works great if your offense is scoring with Warner, Faulk, Holt, Az and Bruce!!!! Also helps to have HOF LB 6'4" #54 that can drop back and close off middle deep patterns that need to be dropped in perfectly.

I cant wait to see Lovies teams in TB. They wont get blown out! Games will be close! they will lose most of the time unless they get a few stud O players, then they will win against all the bad teams, go 9-7 and lose to the playoff teams.

I was at that game, it was amazing. Been a huge fan of his ever since.

He's definitely become overrated since then but that was one hell of a performance to see live.

That's the game that inspired the Shep grammy award winning song "The D is old"....(Russell Wilson looked like an all pro..)

Great point by Frank C!

That record day by Steve Smith of 218 yard receiving, 2 TD's, 12 catches, 36 rushing yards, was a fine example of great the 2 Deep system works against good players, in a fine example of Lovies playoff teams

So, coaches are to be criticized based on picking one game out of nine total years of work. Were you in hibernation during 2006? Did that year ever occur on your calendar? They beat the vaunted Saints offense to get there. What about leading the league the past nine years, cumulatively, in turnovers? Forget the Carolina game. There was one game in 2010 where the Patriots had like 38 points at halftime, so yeah, ergo Lovie blows.

I have never once said Lovie Blows. He is a solid coach, but his record v the upper (above .500) teams is terrible for a reason.

You point out the turnovers. Sure, they have some games where they got 3 and 4 against bad teams. You sit 2 deep safeties, I feel very good you will get interceptions, at the same time, they will travel down field.

There is also a reason the Lovie defense was always in the bottom 3rd for 3rd down defense, because teams threw under the coverage as needed.

This is why Lovies defense was good v Favre. Over throws were coming and he had guys back there. Then he was terrible v Rodgers
