Is there any national PBP team that doesn't make you roll your eyes?
I remember a push for Ian Darke to announce a football game, let's make it happen for week three.

Didn't see any of the game. Reading this thread it sounds like a bad game with the lone bright spot being you have Emmitt Smith backing up Matt Forte.

i watched 75% of the bears game so i could pass out early and wake up for the test cricket. i was shocked to find out the bears "won" after i woke up, almost like india being 12-2 already.

this has gotta be a jordan palmer thing cuz it looked like clausen was shitting the bed.

that game was unwatchable on so many levels

I flipped over to Knick on HBO. I liked it although I didn't care for the cocaine being shot into the penis scene

Offense:
Looks primed for a regression to the 10-15 range. There's zero depth anywhere.

Defense:
Run defense looked good but the secondary is going to get torched.

Special Teams:

Trestman's next biggest test after dealing with Bennett is going to be having the courage to fire the DC and ST coach.

He's being wrapped up before he can pass the line of scrimmage. It's the preseason but they're run blocking like they did last season and the entire time he's been a Bear.

That was the stupidest helmet design I've ever seen. Who makes the front of the helmet a different color than the back?

I'm sure Bortles and Henne will enjoy looking out on the field and thinking "I can throw it to gold and some of the dark helmets depending on which direction that guy is runn...AH! the nose tackle just ripped my shoulder off!!..."

I checked out early in the 3rd when it became apparent that Fales would not be playing for fear of showing up the other backups. I'll watch the rest this weekend.

Why do you guys try to "break down" the action in these games. All of the offensive is using a small playbook with lame plays. The blocking schemes are non-existent. The defense plays basic man-to-man mostly. The blitz packages called are vanilla. The special teams are just trying not to get hurt.

The only thing anyone should take from preseason is individual performance on performing the basic parts of football. For instance, Shea has been awful and does not look capable of playing linebacker. But you cannot pass judgement on the defense, offense, or special teams as a whole.

Once the Bears get thrashed in week 1, THEN you can start killing them.

I thought Bostic actually looked pretty good blowing up a couple plays.

Me too, I thought he was the best part of the #1 defense.

These "penalties" are going to make for some real ticky tack calls, and some looooooong games. Hand to the face, and illegal contact? No way those should have been flags...for either team.

If Jay gets time to throw like he did last night this offense is going to set the world on fire.

Except Jay actually has #1 WRs to throw the football too.

Did anyone else think Cutler's mechanics looked better last night? His release was quicker and he was holding the ball higher. That is cause for optimism, IMO.

There' a tendency to over analyze these games and draw conclusions (usually for the worse) about the team. No teams are showing much, and obviously most of these games are being played by backups, fringe players, and non-roster invitee's. I laugh when I listen Boers/Bernstein claim he's not making any judgments based on pre-season, but has gone from having them 12-4 to now being a .500 type team. The only thing that has changed is pre-season games. Stop over-reacting to them. The Bears may not win their division or go the playoffs, but you can draw these conclusions prior to training camp.

The offense will be very good as long as they stay healthy, but what offense in the league will be better with injuries (in most cases unless a backup becomes a star)? If there are injuries, the lack of depth will be more pronounced on the Bears because it's nearly impossible to replace the type of talent they have (Jeffery, Marshall, Forte, Cutler). This is true of most teams in the league at the QB spot - losing one of these guys probably ends your season.

Defensively, if there's a pass rush, the defense may not be great, but it will at least hold it's own. There are obvious concerns at LB, and S, but the defensive line looks to be a strength on the team.

The defense looked faster on the edges but soft up the middle. The OL can't run-block for shit.

Jon Bostic is awful and Shea McClellin is offal.

Peanut moves like he's being held together with chewing gum and popsicle sticks. He's going to be hurt early and often.
