Don't worry staff and front office, Bears don't need blocking help.
This is going to be a really long season...

Yeah. I thought his value was jack of all trades type. Do you think he will actually be good as a single position, slot guy?

He has easily been Cassel's favorite target throughout preseason. He seems to have really took to the position.

That's really good then. I hope he does well, I liked him in college, and hope he can do well!

No it's not. We've all been through this twice now. Everyone will complain about the line and the Bears will win games with Cutler/defense and people will marvel over how the Bears somehow overcame a weakness to compete for a playoff spot.

If we can do that while having to overcome a weakness, imagine how much better we could do if we didn't have to overcome that weakness.

He definitely has happy feet despite the protection. He must be having flashbacks to the last Giants game. Hopefully it doesn't carry over.

I'm more worried about how poor Cutler has done. He hasn't been sacked. He has had some pressures but his throws have been poor.

Right, it sucks, but it is what it is. I like the offseason we had so I can't really complain.

That's the one thing I noticed as well. I thought you guys would run block better. I like Marshall and Peppers is Peppers. Other than that not a lot of guys have flashed.

You guys think I can be a ref next week? You apparently don't need any experience.

word is that Amukamara has a HIGH ankle sprain. That sucks, those usually takes a long while to heal 100 percent.

Davin Joseph suffered injury earlier in game, reports say it doesn't look very good(could be season ending).

I still thank the Jets for Weatherford... I still have nightmares from the *gasp* Matt Dodge days.
Why did they ever let him go again?

He didn't get along with Westhoff.

Only a couple of targets. Missed a ball he probably should have made, but it was difficult and had nice concentration on a tipped ball.
Another dropped ball for a first down.

I just don't understand how any coach or anyone can view Chris Williams or Jamarcus Webb as a starting caliber tackle. They did absolutely nothing to improve our biggest weakness and somehow it looks to have gotten even worse. Its just mind boggling.
