agreed....
may take the D a series....might give up a quick FG.

Urlacher and Briggs go crazy...each end up with 15+ tackles.

There will be a Rasheed Davis sighting, and Gabe Ried will score a 2 yard touchdown.

Benson rushes for 100 yards, and Rex throws TD passes to Berrian and Bradley. Anderson gets 2 more sacks.

Is it just me, or does Tampa's QB look like Martin Grammatica on steroids?

Hester on offense!

I think this is a dumb move on the Bears' part in regards to hester playing offense in this game. You have to figure that they are only going to have a few specialized plays for the guy, so why blow the cover on him during a game like this? Am I just completely wrong in thinking that they should instead keep him under wraps until the playoffs for any offensive plays?

Nice 2 minute scoring drive!

It'd be nice if they made consistent use of Clark on offense. What a huge first half.
As for the Bears' D, well, Tampa is terrible on Offense.

Ugueth,

I'm OK with them doing this now.. gives opposing defensive coordinators something more to think about.. coaches do it in the preseason too.. they'll run formations they have no intention of actually running in the regular season just to plant a seed that a good coach needs to worry about..

Rex looks good today, good footwork and decisions. That is what I wanted to see against a horrible team like TB. Give Rex three or four more series and then let Griese get some work in the fourth.

Yeah, they would be pretty stupid to not let Griese get a few snaps in a game like this.

GODAMMIT!

The defense looks tired. They're getting no pressure on Rattay.

Great effort by Benson.

Where the hell is everybody?

28 points given up vs. St. Louis; 31 vs. Tampa Bay, the lowest scoring offense in the NFL. Secondary getting beat pretty often. Can't like what's become of the defense with Brown, Harris, and the secondary banged up. The cluster injuries are showing. Neither Manning appears to be an NFL calibre starter today....but with the injuries, they have no choice but to play them...

What the hell is going on?

Agreed. Regardless of the outcome of this game, the Bears are in dire need of a wake up call. Perhaps this game is it?

I think the Bears are going to lose this game.

What the fuck is going on?

Complacency?

These guys are ridiculously tired.

Subs playing in the secondary. There is a reason these guys weren't starters in the first place. I think we're seeing it.

Doug and OB should be interesting, regardless of the outcome.

Three touchdowns in three minutes, WTF?

How are the Bears losing this game?

Is the defense taking them seriously or what?

I have a bad feeling. The Bears look lifeless on both sides of the ball.

I do not like the way Lovie handled that. Should have run a no huddle with 3 timeouts and over a minute to go, bad decision.

Did the Bears think this would be a cake-walk?

This sucks ASS!

TERRIBLE STRATEGY! WTF is Lovie thinking? He'd better pray we win the toss. TB has a kicker who can hit 60 yarders!!
