I don't get why me complaining about us not getting any respect from media, has anything to do with me making a negative comment in the spur of the moment during the game.

I may talk a lot of sh*t that probably doesn't make sense during the game, but like I said, I'm just some yahoo venting on a message board. I would imagine that there is someone that knows football that would tell these guys in the media that maybe we're not a bad team and that we lost to a good team.

Alexander, Landry, Wilson, and maybe Carter if you're feeling charitable.

Look, the Seahawks got 3.5 sacks from their defensive backs in today's game vs. Chicago. We also play with defensive backs. Sometimes, lots of defensive backs.

What play did he get dinked on? I saw him come out and they almost immediately went to Davis but it didn't look like Cooley got plunked too hard any time.

I just like the fact that this year's team doesn't dejected early and quit. They fight to the end. Mistakes and missed opportunities happen in football, just a matter of how you respond to them

The Bears offensive line is pure garbage. Also, the Bears don't have great receivers. I think our defense should be able to pressure Cutler. Honestly, I'm a bit more concerned about Forte and the running game.

I got money he does much better than CC47 and I am the biggest CC47 fan. But, dude has real talent.

A nice sound convincing win is in order for the long term but I'll take one any way we can get it. Hopefully we post.

I'll second that opinion man. If there ever was a game to let us know we can have a complete, dominant, performance, it's Chicago. For as many sacks as we get and as horrible as Chicago's offensive line is, I would hope to see a 5+ sack game from us next week. I wouldn't love for anything more than to see a game where offense executes fine and our defense completely shuts down an opposing offense. They average 4 sacks a game given up, and I think they've already given up 27 sacks in 6 games this season. This should be a game where everything comes together and gives us a boost that we need.

@Skinsfan69: Agreed, I'm definitely not trying to sound like an ATV hater because that's exactly what I'm not. He's been great back there and my only real concern is his durability.

I missed it myself

Last year's team had that "never die" ability in spades. But they also couldn't close games that they were winning late, which led to a 4-12 finish.

Our team plays with as much energy and effort as any team in the NFL. Our physicality is keeping us in games on the whole. I don't know if our collection of vets can keep this type of effort up but if they can then it is just time until the schemes come together for us. I believe it.

I don't think anyone saw this. I hope this means maybe that it was a mild concussion...but then again it was bad enough to get him out of the game. Would hate to see Cooley out for significant time.

Seriously? I took it more as aggravation with the question then with him missing in the game.

LL30 had a TD and AL should have started. I have never felt this good over a lose ever and my boys have so well, I can take this lose with out a problem

Alright, I was in the wrong this time.

However, my first comment in the review thread was brone out of seeing more sense spoken in the thread than I have seen elsewhere.

Last year's team was defeated going into almost every game last year. I am not sure I ever saw "never die". Maybe what we saw was professionalism but the fire and determination was lacking for most if not all of the season.
