		<description>@Deez Yeah, I agree, but maybe Hesters learning curve at receiver is harder. I keep thinking that if he was used like Darren Sproles or in the slot against nickel corners....  he&#039;s like a human pinball machine in space. 

 

I hate Reggie Bush, but that&#039;s the idea. 

 

In leiu of that, I want to see more Knox and Bennet together on the field and let Williams ride the pine. 

 

We need to get the O feeling confident because I&#039;m seeing major chinks in the GB defense and one way to pressure Rodgers is to keep up with a scoring binge.

		<description>@flowermike The Bears have seemed to have gotten away from the screen pass in recent weeks and definitely think they need to exploit that as often as they can.

 

My only concern with Hester in the backfield is complicating the offense.  We have seen plenty of times where the Bears try something out of the ordinary and it blows up in their face.  As good as Hester is, his instincts aren&#039;t great when he doesn&#039;t have a head of steam behind him.  In general, for this Bears offense, simple seems to be the best way to go. </description>

		<description>@venomlash I also agree that the run blocking wasn&#039;t very good on Sunday, but Detroit has very good front four.  Nick Fairley is coming off an injury and is just now get acclimated with the defense.  The Bears offensive line is mediocre, at best, and will continue to be a wildcard each game.

 

Also, I believe Forte has the most rushes for negative yards in the league, so it&#039;s no surprise that he is going to get stopped now and again.  The Bears will have to rely on those big runs where he gets 30 to 40 yards downfield and turn them into points when the opportunity comes.  As long as the keep a balanced attack, Forte will get his yards.</description>

		<description>Good question Irish, and it would allow Knox to be on the field more often.... really better than roy williams anyway. Get Devin the ball out in space against linebackers would be similar to what NO did with RBush. The more he touches the ball, the better. 

 

I thought a similar thing about Olsen... why couldn&#039;t we line him up all over the place and create matchup problems?  Moot point now, but we have some athlete&#039;s that are dynamic, let them make plays. 

 

We tend to be bullheaded and if the plan works one day, fine. Adjustments are our achilles heel. Well, not ours but Lovies. Increasing Devin&#039;s touches should be explored. 

 

And venom&#039;s point about the line play is accurate and ties in. Allow Forte the same opportunity one on one with a linebacker. At some point, a short pass is like a run and fairly safe and sack free. I remember the Rams using every square inch of the field and Faulk&#039;s main strength was his speed against the second tier of defense. </description>

		<description>Okay, you may have to cut me some slack with my question, as I understand this great game of football, but also know I don’t know everything.  But why? Why? Why? …have the Bears never experimented with Hester in the back field?  I’m not talking about handing the ball off to him…I’m talking about getting him out in the flat and throwing it to him.  Would it be entirely bad to line up in a split formation with Forte and Hester in the backfield 3-5 plays per game?  I get that he would have to understand the blocking scheme, but someone please tell me why this would be a stupid idea or why the Bears have not tried it?????</description>
