It's F-ing Bears Week!

It's just one value metric, but: Brandon Lloyd and Kyle Orton have combined for 983 DYAR this season.

Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall have combined for 112 DYAR (two fewer games though).

Brian Xanders/Josh McDaniels FTW? Well, at least until you look at how those draft picks were wasted.

I will say this game seems to have AL's name written all over it. I really want this guy just to be this mean nasty monster and just crush the pocket. I really want him to be successful here. I know he has been dominated on in some games but I feel a big one coming from him. Just like Los gets at least to pass break ups his week not Int's, but break ups.

The spread will tighten a bit as we approach kick off. Vegas is betting the Skins will probably take this one, maybe by much as a touchdown.

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 10-20-2010, 08:34 PM

I would say they need a couple of real WR as well. They arent just an oline away. Which by the way is a HUGE piece of the offensive puzzle as we all know.

I want to say we can win this game. I do not know if we will, but I know we can.

I havent predicted any games this year as I honestly think this team is to hard to predict. BUT I do have good feeling about this one!

I was looking at PFT and noticed that Dallas Clark's season is pretty much over due to hand/wrist injury.

I then wondered which Bear gets injured?

But.... I think someone should start a thread with a list of players who got "knocked the "F" out" by the Skins. lol. Hasn't there been an opponant injured each game?

skinsfaninok · 10-20-2010, 09:03 PM

imo we shouldn't be favored they are 4-2 and we are 3-3. On the road at that

Dallas is a 3-point favorite over the Giants this week in Dallas. Check their records...

sportscurmudgeon · 10-22-2010, 09:15 PM

Skins win 24-16.

Cutler sacked 6 times

McNabb sacked 4 times.

Albert Haynesworth plays and is "injured" sufficiently to stop play and have trainers come onto the field to tend to him at least once and maybe three times.

So the team with the better record ALWAYS is favored. When you look at two teams you look at the individual matchups and general schemes. I would say TW has earned a favorable matchup against Peppers - not saying he will win every battle but he will hold his own I think. Urlacher did not practice today so I don't know their LB status, and their corners are average. That means our offense ought to have some success attacking the middle and deep parts (which Mcnabb and KS love to do). As for their offense, obviously Orakpo gives us an advantage in pass rush and if AH plays (well) he gets a push too(unless E Williams knows a secret to stopping him). The biggest threat they have is forte and he scares me a lot. If Addai can run like that up our center Forte may break rushing records.
If you look at the teams we have faced: houston, philly, indy,packers are no slouches and we have matched up well there.

No but they are home and usually when 2 teams are about equal, they have a 2 or 3 point line. I really think this will be another nail biter. The Bears Defense is solid, they dont give up alot on the ground and thats going to be a KEY factor with us Sunday. McNabb has had 1 great game and the others have been AVG to Good. I think we will win this game but I don't have a problem being the underdog.

16 PPG and only 94 yards per game on the ground for the bears D.

Yeah their D will certainly be a challenge, but I still think they are susceptible to medium and long passes, which is what we kind of excel at. I doubt we will do much running at all. I also wonder if Shanahan knows how to get into Cutler's head.

I can see being the underdog, we certainly haven't blown anyone out (yet) but if there were a case where the records don't reflect the performances I would think this would be one of those type matchups.

I almost forgot about the Cutler/Shanahan dynamic. Shanny was a Cutler fan wasn't he?

Honestly, the way we had been running before the Colts game, I'll GLADLY take 94 yards...

The more I read about the Bears, I think this will be a close, low-scoring, even ugly game. Special teams might be the difference, so don't kick to Hester!

This is an intriguing matchup for the NFC. I think both teams are middle of the pack, but a convincing victory would elevate the winner above mediocrity, for now at least. The Bears are in their position because the NFC North has been a big disappointment so far.
