It's Meatball Nas. This is what he does. I think he thinks it's good luck. It's never worked.
He's a putz.

He has rushed for over 100 yards in 3 straight games too. He's averaging 4.7 ypc for the season and would be at 4.9 if he didn't stink against the Lions. He has a great chance to finish the season with 2000 yards from scrimmage. Most underrated back in the NFL.

If Briggs isn't back, look for the Eagles to run the read option and/or wildcat. Both times Cleveland did it, the Bears D looked completely lost.

Ok, makes sense.

Nas I don't think anyone is dissing Forte here. I like him as well, though I do think he's a solid notch or two below a guy like Charles.

Not a bit. Sometimes you just see the light. I'm convinced this season will be special.

Cowboys lose and Eagles clinch with a W. If Packers and Lions lose, do the Bears clinch the division
with a win?

I like to look at the full body of work. Some backs may do certain things at a higher level than Forte but he's the best all around RB in the NFL. He does it all at a high level despite the heavy load he has to carry and the beating he takes.

That would eliminate the Lions, I think, but not the Packers.

A Lions loss means eight total losses for the year, but a Bears win means the most they could lose this season is seven games.

Yup! Packers couldn't finish ahead of the Bears because of their tie and tie breakers.

Bears and Eagles in the same spot? Cowboys win and the Bears game doesn't matter
for the Eagles. Lions lose, Packers win, Bears could lose to the Eagles and make the playoffs
still by beating GB week 17?

I'm not concerned about what Foles has done in the past. A lot changes with the pressure of the playoffs.

I don't think McCoy will quit but I don't believe he'll be near 160 total yards.

It's not that I expect Briggs to be at a pro bowl level but I expect his presence to make a huge difference. Urlacher had 1 leg last year but when he was on the field the Bears were a better defense. Briggs will make sure everyone is where they are supposed to be and provide some on field leadership for the cubs.

I believe the bears can outscore philly if Cutler can limit the turnovers to one or less.

McCoy will probably have 200 yards

briggs didn't look good before the injury , he looked slow n old and was tackling very poorly . Briggs return doesn't mean much IMO ...i think he's about done.

forte is playing great..having a career year, but he is no shady mccoy .

I don't know about that Nas. Forte seems more a compiler to me. At the end of the game his stats will look pretty good but you can't trust him on short yardage to get tough yards . He can't break tackles and has shown he can't get tough yards when you need them. First contact seems to bring him down . Hard to say he's the best with that glaring deficiency in his game

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

There is no way he can be in the top 5 of the league every year in all purpose yards if those things are true. We know he hasn't benefited from great blocking or QB play but somehow his ypc is always high. As I said he is underrated.

Yeah but he blows when it's 3 or 4 th down and you need 1 or 2 yards. Do you trust him to get those yards?? That's a huge hole in his game . He does everything else well no doubt.

I trust him to get those yards more than any back on the team. Problem is most of the time he doesn't have a chance because of awful run blocking. That's something this team still doesn't do well.

Sure the blocking is part of it but he can't break tackles . Sometimes you need your back to bail the blocking out and he doesn't do that. I'd wager his YAC is among the lowest in the league . That's what prevents him from being among the top backs in the league IMO

I think Forte is probably in the top 5-10 of ALL AROUND backs.

As a pure runner, I don't think he's even in the top 15. Once he gets in the open field, he's pretty good. But from the line of scrimmage, he's not very explosive and he doesn't pick up his feet. And he's never been super quick - that's just not how he's built.

I'm not saying I don't like him - blocking and pass catching are extremely important, and he's a competent runner. I just think there are many backs in the league who are better pure runners.

_________________

He's a top 5 RB. What 4 to 9 running backs are better all around than him?

What about his rushing stats this year with a below average run blocking offensive line and the rest of his time here with HORRIBLE offensive lines says he is just "competent" as a runner?
