"If only we had a real quarterback, we'd go all the way!" Now that Jay hasn't panned out, who's fault is it?...The Offensive line..the recievers, the backs? C'mon, the Bears problems have long been rooted in more then the QB. And now, you've got an overpaid baby at the helm, as well as an overated coach. Oh, don't forget, you gave up the farm in draft picks to Denver. I've been a Bears fan my whole life, but after 38 years, I'm glad that I jumped on the Bronco bandwagon when I did...the day they signed Kyle Orton!

The coaching staff and management has been touting their depth for some time now. The offense - lifeless. Forte can't run and Cutler can't throw because the line can't block 4 BENGALS with 6 guys. If this were the Giants they could have rushed 3 and gotten there. Yes, Cutler was to blame for red zone picks at Green Bay and last week at Atlanta, but these 3 picks were not on him. The first richocetted off of the WR, the 2nd was as good as a punt(on 3rd down and a mile) had Bennett touched the DB down at the 10 yard line, and the 3rd was Cutler's buddy cutting off his route and hiding behind a LB! But let's not give special teams a pass. Did we start past the 28 yard line? Running into the kicker and giving them a 1st down? This was a total team collapse that has happened before under this regime. I don't need yelling and screaming on the sideline either - but the first rule of being a Boy Scout is BE PREPARED!
