Chicago Bears at San Francisco 49ers Game Thread

Somewhere a child dreams of cashing his first paycheck and crippling his team's future. Shaun Hill briefly delayed Alex Smith's dream, but Smith is back: cheaper, better...ok, not actually better.

Somewhere a child dreams of cashing his first paycheck and crippling his team's future. Shaun Hill briefly delayed Alex Smith's dream, but Smith is back: cheaper, better...ok, not actually better.

The NFL blesses us with Thursday football. It's a crap matchup for most, as a team with only a quarterback faces a team that should have stuck with Shaun Hill. Normally, Alex Smith against the Bears would be a carnival of fifty-step drops and cross-bodied interceptions. Supposedly Smith has improved; I know the Bears defense has gotten worse. A really bad quarterback, what I've always known Smith to be, can make almost any defense look good.

Will he? I can only hope.

I love how much NFL Network has been hyping up the game.

I get that it’s on their network and I don’t expect them to put these teams down, but this really isn’t a quality matchup.

Facebook is compelling because it gives people their own little slice of the internet

Brands and companies create facebook profiles to build communities, promote brands, get a pulse on their customers, get feedback, and build a strong connection with people to increase brand loyalty, etc.

(social media is part of my job, hehe)

to answer why use FB when your blog has a community already: it’s a different demographic that appeals to people that may not be avid bloggers or frequenters of blogs. Plus, if they become a ‘fan’ of your profile, they see EVERYTHING you post. Tough not to see the value in that hehe.

Cutler trade, good for Chicago or not?

I always had a bad feeling about it. My Chicago buddies all liked it but I just thought the circumstances showed Cutler to be well, a douche… It’s looking like McDaniel may have been looking for a new starting QB for a reason. Cutler is a bit of a loose Cannon. And obviously he’s tempermental and therefore likely difficut to coach. I’d say Chicago looks back with regret.

Cutler would be QBing a 6-2 or 7-1 team if he had a defense that was good. Or if they bothered with good WRs and not develop Hester. Or a good coaching staff.

I think it's valid to ask the question given Cutler's contined decision-making being poor.

I think Cutler makes some bad decisions

I am not blind and I do not think he’s Manning or Brady, but look at his tools and success at such a young age. He was one of the most productive quarterbacks in football in 2008. You can’t watch one game and start acting like he’s a complete scrub. It’s reflexive and anti-intellectual.

I agreed. That's what I was trying to explain above.

As much as I’ve slammed him, as I said, I think he’s an elite talent. He still has some shortcomings. But at 26, there is time to iron those out and put more talent around him.

This is his comment under “Captain Cocktacular”

I was in Canada with my 13 inch dick when I encountered a walrus. He pulled out his 12 inch dick and we had a cock fight. It was a stalemate until I started thinking about JFein. My 13 inch cock got even bigger! The walrus could not keep up with me and i cummed in his eyes. He ran away afterwards. I won. My dick is awesome!

Sadly that’s more exciting than this game.

HOW CAN YOU MAKE THAT THROW?

Run it. Did he even know they had 1 timeout?

I’m off to read Windy City Gridiron.

Fire Bruce DeHaven.

Although it was Flagfest '09

The ending was entertaining. Not that I liked the ending, but whatever.

Lets get Schmitt Faced!

Fitting ending to the game

17 INT’s on the year… yikes

That last throw was awful...

It was.

Right to a defender.

With the game is winding down...

I think sometimes Cutler trusts his gun too much. He can make those passes, but probably shouldn’t.

He looks like a quarterback that favors big receivers that can box the defender out.

I think he’s struggling throwing to Chicago’s stable of tiny dynamos.

Yeah. Going from Rod Smith and Brandon Marshall

to the mity-mites is certainly an adjustment.

The question is

Will the Bears build around him… or their defense and some semblance of a running game?

by farmer cam on Nov 12, 2009 8:34 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Well... you HAVE to build around him.

The guy has proven he has an NFL arm and CAN make all the passes. He may not be the kind of QB that you can throw into any situation and expect results. You probably need to surround him with the right personnel package.

Yikes... I came in late and just caught the first pick.

Does Culter have a red-zone quirk?

Wow. 14-17 TD-INT ratio.

He was Captain Checkdown tonight. When he wasn’t it went to SF.

yeah

how the hell was he a back-up in college? I can’t even begin to understand it
