Boomer, how is this fixable? Magic underwear? Tom Thayer gets so pissed off he calls Jimbo Covert and they crash the party? Seriously dude, How???

This is a disaster. We all saw this coming.

Cutler may become David Carr by the end of this season and we’ll all have hope because a new regime will replace Lovie and Friends, Inc.

But here’s the rub…. that will signal Cutlers 4th consecutive year with a new offense.

Look at the elite’s out there… Peyton, one system… Tom, one system…. Drew, two systems… Rogers, one system.

Lost season boys before we can rebuild.

The super bowl was a curse. Yeah, cynical I know, but I earned the tag.

Alright, I’m starting to come out of my post Bears evisceration funk and look forward to Sunday. I agree with the sentiment that this may have been the worst o-line performance in franchise history but I have a bit of optimism left. It’s not like da Bears haven’t gone up against decent d-lines yet this year. Detroit and GB are both in the top 5 and while Dallas is pretty far down there Demarcus Ware is no slouch and he didn’t have a single sack against the Bears. I think the line is still a mess but I don’t think we’ll see another performance like Sunday. I think Cutler will have to run for his life for the rest of the season (if he is in fact still alive) but I also think he’ll make better reads than he did on Sunday and I think the line will be able to block someone at least once in awhile.

Boomer Thanks for the reply on my questions, i feel better now, really. this has to be a wakeup call for the offensive line.

I think this is definitely fixable. I heard plenty of talk in the postgame show about simplifying the protections, changing up the play calling and getting the ball out sooner. There were opportunities for some short gains to get the ball out of his hands quickly, but Cutler was pressing for the home run ball.

Interesting theory Rich, but I think it’s a stretch. I know the play you’re talking about where he took one right under the chin from Zombo I believe. If he was concussed in the GB game and was still feeling the effects on Sunday night, that’s a pretty serious injury. I would have to believe that it would have been recognized during the week.

I think it’s more likely that he got his bell rung earlier in the Giants game, but tried to play through it. No one has said in which play he suffered the concussion.

I think the Bears hid Jay Cutlers concussion from the packers game and thats why he was so slow to see plays develop.He was hit a couple times to the head and chin during that game.

Your exactly right Lovee is so full of himself. He probably doesn’t even know the exact rules for a concussion. Anyway your right Cutler wouldn’t have quit without being hurt! Our offensive line play on Sunday was the worst i’ve ever witnessed by a Bears team that i can recall in my 40 years. They were in our backfield in 2 seconds every play. Can we even fix this with the players we have, i pesonaly don’t think so, we have some big offensive lineman but apparently they can’t move there feet without tripping. What are your thoughts Boomer, can we fix this? Wowww!!
