    Bears QBs, Cutler's future, the Bears generally

    The Bears have now had 20 starting QBs,.....this century.
    Per the Chicago Tribune, Barkley was their 20th starter at QB since the 2000 season.

    They are reporting that Cutler may be headed to IR with a torn labrum in his right shoulder, and may have played his last game for the Bears. The cap hit to cut him next year is minimal. The guarantees in his contract extension have been paid already, so the break with him would be easy.

    One article suggested that the Trevathan's recovery from his patellar tendon tear that landed him on IR will likely extend into next season, and very well might be career-altering. They also suggested that the Bears are unlikely to make a big financial commitment to Alshon Jeffrey, and that they are losing hope/interest in Kevin White. It wasn't clear if these are just wild speculations, or if based on inside information.

    Coaching? They seem to think Fox is as good as gone already, and pointed out that the Bears have to win all of their remaining games for Fox's two-year record to equal Marc Trestman's first two seasons.

    You could save people the reading by saying. The Bears still SUCK, and will continue to for many years!!!

    Da Bears are 2-7 but they've beaten both Detriot and Minnesota for their only wins thus far this season.

    Ted's Team has dug itself a very deep hole, especially with that Custer-fucked 4 games losing streak - something Sherman's Teams never once went through (4-12 was Ted's Team). Odds are the Packers are gonna need help from da Bears.

    When's the last time Da Bears swept both the Pussycats and Queens in a season?

    Is this akin to your 4 year drought on getting a woman to touch you in your bits? Something Mike Sherman never went through even with his PSL body.

    What 4 year drought? As a Marxist, I like sharing my so-called wealth. Women are naturally greedy. I don't mind paying a woman for her time.

    Now back to topic. Yes, Packers are gonna need Bears help...

    If the Packers tie with the Vikings for season record, so long as the Packers beat the Vikings, the Packers will have the tie breaker against the Vikings because the vikings will have at least 4 losses in the division and the worst GB could be is 3-3. If the Packers win out, they are guaranteed at least to tie the Vikings in the standings.

    If the Packers tie with the Lions for seasons record, but beat the Lions, the Packers have the tie breaker against the Lions in head to head matchup. If the Packers win out, they only need the Lions to lose one additional game for GB to be guaranteed a standings tie with the Lions.

    Summary - If the Packers win out, one other loss by the Lions guarantees the division to GB, regardless of what the Vikings do.

    I think...............................

    and they have lost twice to the Lions and once to the Bears. They need to reverse their tail spin, and have a lot of things go their way to have a chance. Even if the Vikings were to win out, they need to have the Lions lose twice and they have no control since they have lost twice already to them.

    Detriot has:

    @ Saints
    Bears
    @Giants
    @Cowboys
    Packers

    No cupcakes.

    Anyone thinks the Packers can beat the Seafags?

    Big IF about Pack winning out, for, the Polar Bear hasn't done a fucking thing about the miseries at corner and ILB. Plus, the offense is too inconsistent. Plus, too many weaknesses.

    To quote Alphaville, I am hoping for the best but expecting the worst. Is Murphy gonna drop the bomb on Ted or not?

    it stacks up well for the Packers really...if they continue to trend up.

    the ospreys game is our toughest.

    Seems to me that is a mighty big IF. They've played exactly one good game since their month-long impersonation of the Browns. I would like to see them string together a few solid showings before I start thinking about them running the table.

    The Bears have been awful since Lovie left. Just awful.

    Is there a lesson in there for Packer fans? Fire the guy that gets you to 10-6 most years, gets you into the playoffs, maybe has one SB appearance to show for it - not good enough. But the alternative, in the Bears' case, has been firing coaches every couple years, trying the new hot coordinator/CFL refugee, then trying the trusty ol' veteran coach. Then a new GM. Let's sign free agents! No, wait, let's draft and develop!

    The Seahawks can be had on any given Sunday even at home.

    Russell Wilson (has lost his legs) just isn't the same this season and they miss their crunching RB.

    This week is huge for the Pack.

    We need a Dallas win tonight....that will happen.

    Drew Brees has to be at his best at home Vs the Lions this Sunday.

    It all really begins right there.
