Bears @ Texans and Giants @ Vikings Game Thread 

Post#1 » by SportsWorld » Sat Dec 27, 2008 9:54 pm

Just wanted to get something up since we play in about 21 hours. I'm heading out to a Buffalo Wild Wings out here in Charlotte to watch the game since the Panthers are on at the same time here.

GO BEARS, GIANTS, RAIDERS, AND EAGLES!

The loss of Mike Brown really hurts. The front four will have to play the game of their lives.

The Giants will play David Carr in the 2nd half, and Jacobs is out. Tavaris jackson has had 2 pretty good games in a row other than the fumbles.

I think the Eagles will win, but there is no way the Raiders beat the buccaneers in Tampa.

On another note, GO LIONS!

The Texans give up the most turnovers in the league (I think), so hopefully if the D-Line just plays solid our chances will come.

The Bears need to win this so I can get my game thread in this season!

Good luck in the game against us guys. Both teams should be playing hard. We are playing for pride and another 8-8 season while you guys are playing for a playoff berth.

In hindsight this is a horrible matchup. The Texans have two great receivers and the Bears feel defending the pass is optional most games.

Anything can happen.

In case you wondered, I'm a true Bears fan and rooting for them tomorrow despite our avatar bet.

And....I officially concede the Bulls/Aaron Gray sig bet to you. Who woulda thunk it ? You may send me my new sig at your leisure. :sigh:

I can only hope it has an expiration date !!!
Turn down for what?

Good pressure by the Bears and a huge tackle by Briggs to get the defense off the field .

Cmon Offense lets get a quick score here.
