For those who have been with us since June, remember this? Wow, who’d have thought my ‘prediction’ would have been essentially spot on. I guess the only thing to wonder about is if Anquan Boldin did play, would he have taken away receiving yards from Fitz, or would...

If only Matt Leinart would have played quarterback for the entire game today, the Bears secondary would have set a league record with 12 interceptions. But, no, Ken Whisenhunt had to get all worriedlike, removing Leinart from garbage-time duty after just four three plays and the one...

The last post of the week: something to ponder as you await the certain couch slouch and booze binge of this weekend.
Ah, Bears vs. Cardinals this Sunday. Not only does it hold serious implications for which direction each team is heading, it allows us to think fondly of Mr. They Are...

Clearly, the most rewarding part of penning a post entitled “The Rise And Fall Of Nate Vasher” would be seeing resiliency rewarded. And with that: just when you thought it was safe to write off Vasher for good … yes! yes! … well, he doesn’t suck as a free...

John Tait turned away $4.8 million, and the final year of his six-year contract signed in 2004, to retire before this season started. Sigh. Apparently, the ankles could take no more. Double sigh. Now, filed under one-who-would-know, Tait offers his (overly?) optimistic opinion of the...

Fans and sports writers may no longer be appreciative of his phlegmatic ways, but Lovie Smith’s players seem to like it. From the Tribune: “Smith’s monotone, sleep-inducing responses to questions that often frustrate the media actually seem to reassure his players...
Rob Ryan Does Not Care For Jay Cutler

That’s Browns defensive coordinator Rob Ryan, who was visibly annoyed by Jay Cutler’s inability to make his defense look worse, after a fourth-and-goal incompletion. Cutler had to be held back from doing who-knows-what. Ryan then yelled something about sexual solicitation...

The best thing about beating a team like the Cleveland Browns is getting to wipe the arrogant, holier-than-thou smirk off all of their faces; showing everybody that even the little guy can win for once; sticking it to the privileged kids. Really, who the hell do they think they are...

And let the Brett Favre love affair continue. Walking–albeit, a little slower than he used to–into the place that he built, Favre threw four touchdowns in a Vikings 38-26 win over Green Bay. Thus, the Vikes improve to 7-1 and, more importantly, are one step closer to an...

To write of your aversion to Ron Turner’s historically uninspired, and often ineffective, play-calling on the Internet is one thing. To do so in the form of a 71-second parody to Billy Joel’s “It’s Still Rock N’ Roll To Me” is another. We have the...

In the aesthetic words of one Mike Jones: back then they didn’t want him; now he’s hot, they, uh, probably would want him. Back in February, the Bears were in the enviable position of having Sharper actually want to play for them, but they just didn’t like him in...

Despite the last two steaming piles the Bears have laid down, the division is still very much in reach if Aaron Rodgers and company can beat Minnesota this weekend. I’m of course assuming one thing: that our Bears can manage to suck just a little less than the really, really...

Give a guy a four-year, $40 million dollar contract extension and you expect some things. Not part of those expectations: routinely missing one practice a week, chronic knee problems, sliding production, and an increasingly awkward relationship with the coaching staff. And now …...

Contrary to popular belief I am not going to go off on a rant that the Bears season is in the toilet and they are only going to win two games the rest of the year. Numerous others writers have already beaten me to the punch, nor do I believe that to be true. The [...]

Sean Sullivan was merely once just a frequent commenter before joining Blog Down. See people, dreams do come true.

Put down that cigar, sir, for there will be no celebration tonight. As of this post, there is 12:56 left to play in the third quarter and the Bears are currently trying to figure out which play they’d prefer to use to be stopped short on fourth and one.

Last Sunday, the Bears defense struggled once Atlanta went into a no-huddle offense with some players admitting to not getting the calls in on time. Sigh. If only Nick Roach could talk more clearly and less like Lovie Smith.

It isn’t so much his role in the underachieving three-year stint he spent in Chicago that Cedric Benson chooses to focus on. Nope, instead it’s what everyone else did to purposely ruin his life. You know, like take Thomas Jones’ side on everything! Now, with the third...

Who didn’t see this coming? And who doesn’t find this terribly annoying? Chad Johnson (I refuse to call him Ochocinco) took to Twitter to start talking smack to Jay-Jay an AB. First off Twitter in the hands of #85 in a Bengals uniform is like a nuke in the hands of Iran...
