The Bears dropped another game on Sunday as they simply cannot stop the high-powered Vikings.
The Vikings are who we thought they were. (CouldnÆt help myself.)
Minnesota displayed all their weapons and had the game in hand without relying on a heavy dose of Adrian Peterson to put the game away.
ItÆs scary when a team can dominate another team without using their best player.
The Bears offense got off to a promising ...
The Bears play for pride against the high powered Vikings.
Jay Cutler played a conservative game against the Eagles last week but missed key opportunities to score. If the Bears have any hope to beat the Vikings that cannot happen.
The Vikings boast a stiff defensive line that elevates the entire defensive squad. Minnesota is going to get pressure on your quarterback so donÆt bother trying to stop it; instead try to ...
Bears-Eagles: Chicago Loses Hope and Game to Philadelphia
Posted: 23rd November 2009 by Nathan Venegas in NFL
The Bears kept it close but couldnÆt put away the Eagles.
The offense played conservatively and even showed some spark in the running game with the addition of Kahlil Bell, who looks like heÆs going to make the most of his opportunity.
Jay Cutler couldnÆt find a rhythm and missed several wide-open receivers on passes that could have changed the momentum of the game.
Matt Forte continued to struggle thanks in part to ...
Bears-49ers: Chicago’s Offense Sputters, Lose to 49ers
Posted: 13th November 2009 by Nathan Venegas in NFL
The Bears canÆt find any balance as they fall to the 49ers.
The defense rebounded and held the 49ers to one touchdown setup by a Jay Cutler interception (one of the many) but kept the game within reach for the offense.
Frank Gore pounded out 104 yards and the games only touchdown on some tough running.
I am surprised that the Niners went away from their passing game early, especially the quick slants ...
Bears-49ers: Chicago Limps into the Bay to Take on San Francisco
Posted: 11th November 2009 by Nathan Venegas in NFL
The Bears look to find some consistency against Hall of Famer and beloved Bear Mike Singletary and his San Francisco 49ers.
After starting the season 3-1, the 49ers have lost four in a row, which includes a four-turnover performance by the rejuvenated Alex Smith.
Frank Gore amassed nearly half of his rushing total this season in a single game in Week Two against the Seahawks, so donÆt let his high ...
The Bears show fire but not in time to stop the Cardinals.
It seems like the inconsistent play that plagued the Bears last season is alive and well this season. The Bears havenÆt been able to have a balanced three phase game all season. á
The defense was essentially non-existent as it was pushed up and down the field at will by the Cardinals offense. á
Kurt Warner was given time in the ...
Bears-Cardinals Week Nine Preview: Chicago Looks to Slow Arizona’s Pass Attack
Posted: 3rd November 2009 by Nathan Venegas in NFL
The Bears look to tear down the defending NFC Champion Cardinals.
The stats will say that last week against the Browns the Bears rushed for over 100 yards. ItÆs a deceiving stat that doesnÆt show how the offensive line was shoddy against a poor Browns defense.
The broken record will continue unless the big guys on the line play better. ItÆs panic time now because they canÆt even protect Jay Cutler any ...
The Bears rebounded from a Week Seven loss to Cincinatti and romped over the hapless Browns, Sunday.
The first half saw the Bears held to three early field goals before finally being able to put the ball in the end zone.
The offensive line continues to struggle in both pass protection and run blocking yet Matt Forte still ran for 90 yards and two touchdowns.
Jay Cutler looked frustrated early as the offense ...
Bears-Browns Week Eight Preview: Offensive Line Key to Chicago’s Chances
Posted: 28th October 2009 by Nathan Venegas in NFL
Lovie Smith and Co. look to bounce back against the lowly Cleveland Browns.
If the Bears' offensive line isnÆt going to get the job done, then the rest of the offense needs to figure out ways to be productive without their help.
It wonÆt be easy, but the most common way to avoid the rush and create opportunities is to utilize the ôWest Coastö style of offense: short passes to the backs ...
Bears-Bengals: Chicago Routed By Cincinnati, 45-10
Posted: 25th October 2009 by Nathan Venegas in NFL
The Bears got blown up at the line Sunday and were embarrassed by the Cincinnati Bengals.
Once again the Bears offensive line failed to do much of anything to help the team. Jay Cutler didnÆt have time to pass the ball and Matt Forte had nowhere to run the ball.
Even without their leading pass rusher Antwan Odom, who will miss the rest of the season with an injury, the Bengals put ...
