I get emotional about this stuff, but some of the stuff I have read on this site is unbelievable. Were there some horrible play calls? Yes. Were there some horribly executed plays? Yup, and in the end, we made more bad plays than good ones. Keep things in perspective. We're 2-1 and with a Bears win, we'll be tied for first in the division. Try to chill out and realize that the season is young, both units have shown cause for optimism (albeit not unbridled optimism), and that each game, by itself, doesn't decide the fate of the season.

The bottom line is this was a game we had to win. The reeling Giants at home. If we're going to be contenders, this was a game we had to have to effectively knock out the Giants and keep pace with Dallas. The fact that this game was at home makes it even worse.
