Studs and Duds - Week 9: Bears @ Packers (McGinn's Hex)

[Harlan Huckleby]

I wonder if Sherrod can take Newhouse's place.

Starks did disappear. I think you can shake Starks free in a zone run play with 8 in a box more than Lacy who will try to run over three of them.

Also that hail mary to Marshall for their first TD was just stupid. How does that not get batted down. How can the safety not get there?

Reviewing last night's game. The #Packers Neal might have a few sleepless nights this week. Had McCown dead to rights on TD to Marshall.

Stud
Lacy
Starks - get this man some more carries!!
Raji perhaps - he had his moments but him and the DL seemed to wear down

Dud
House
Williams
Hayward for missing Bennett and letting the Bears have the chance to pick up the 4th down
The OLB's - although I sympathize with them as there were NO BACKUPS available
Hawk
Newhouse
Quarless - catch the ball cleanly
Wallace
The coaching staff

i completely agree with this list

why we didn't just lean on the run is beyond me. lacy should and could have had 200 and starks should have had closed to 100

dropping the run game at the 5 yard line when we are just dominating running the ball at that point and dropping wallace back into shotgun and second and third down where the bears knew they only had to worry about the pass was just mind numbing

this is a game that we could have and should have won if the defense had only played half as well as they had every other game this season
