In case you needed more proof of the fact....

... that 2010 is the year in which the football gods are smiling upon the Bears. What are the chances of facing the Vikings:

- without Brett Favre; AND
- without Tarvaris Jackson; AND
- without Adrian Peterson.

[Bossman641]

The Bears have played 2 "away" games that weren't at the home teams' home stadium.
They beat Det on a fortuitous call
The one game they had a serious injury (Cutler) was at Carolina, possibly the worst team in football
They played against Miami's 3rd string QB and without Marshall
They played against Philly, minus Asante Samuel and Juqua Parker
They played against Detroit's 3rd string QB
They played against Minn, minus Favre, AD, and Hutchinson

To recap, their last 3 away games have been against third string QB's. They have 2 players on IR, neither significant. I can't stand the Bears.

[Guiness]

Detroit's 3rd string QB beat us.

Just saying.

[channtheman]

Detroit's 3rd string QB beat us.

Just saying.

False. We beat ourselves. Of course it all looks the same in the loss column so it doesn't really make any difference.

[Joemailman]

Detroit's 3rd string QB beat us.

Just saying.

You're right, but then again, the Bears have faces 4 or 5 3rd string QB's. They've played well, but they've definitely had some breaks.

[packrulz]

Detroit's 3rd string QB beat us.

Just saying.

I would say Detroit's defense beat us.

Maybe, but the Bears are beating teams they should be beating. Packers, not so much.

(That Detriot loss still bugs the hell outta me)

[Bossman641]

Detroit's 3rd string QB beat us.

Just saying.

Right, he did. I just know I'd be about 1000% more confident going against 3rd string QB's then I would going against starters.

Still, Green Bay has squandered so many opportunities this year. The 2 - 10 Leos with a third string QB is the worst of it. That loss is really what has put this season in danger.

[red]

bears have only outscored their opponents by a total of 51 points this year. that includes the 26 point blowout last night

green bay has scored 113 more points then their opponents

yet the bears have one 2 more games

our offense has scored more and our defense has allowed less then the bears

Aren't they 4-10?

I'll agree. The Packers had a terrible game vs. the Lions. Their DL whipped us up front but GB blew at least 4 scoring opportunities.

That same 3rd string QB had a much better game vs the Bears and the Bucs than vs the Packers D. Not that it matters much, really.

[VermontPackFan]

Following this line of thinking, our finale against Chicago should be a cake walk...?

[Scott Campbell]

Detroit's 3rd string QB beat us.

Just saying.

I'd say Detroit's defense beat us, and that there's no stigma in that. Good team.

[Brandon494]

It's the special teams. They win the close game we lose because their special teams give them that extra while ours gives the other team alittle extra.
