2-1 in a tough 3 game stretch. Hasn't been pretty but they've gotten the job done.

Good:
-Cutler
-Hester
-Knox
-Briggs
-Seattle's Kicker

Okay:
-Forte
-Ron Turner (Had a few questionable calls. Overall a solid game)
-D-Line

Bad:
Secondary

God, did anyone hate the announcers as much as the jerseys?

I hate DIck Stockton so much. Not only does he mess up a lot, he announced the past 6 postseason Cub games. All losses.

thats the thing about winning....we may have looked terrible BUT we won. we always can improve...but as long as we're winning we'll put ourself into the position we need to be in. can't ever be upset after a win...

There should be a Dick Stockton drinking game in which you drink whenever he screws up or says something nonsensical.

Kyle Orton is 3-0 against the Bengals, Browns, and Raiders. Just saying.

Jay Cutler is a man.

Yeah, Cutler was very good today. And while I'm not a firm believer that you need a completely balanced offensive attack, this running game needs a massive overhaul

Is there a word for winning, despite sucking?

O-Line continues to look very subpar and Bowman played pretty awful but a win is a win and let's continue he winning streak versus Detroit next week

Not just 3 wins, 3 wins over playoff caliber teams.

A road win!

Good win...although we struggle again to a victory.

Defense played the bend but don't break just enough to win. We applied pressure all day on Wallace. Roach and Williams played very well. With a less mobile QB we would probably have at least a 3 sack day.

The O-line was ineffective again. Our run and passing blocking has been abysmal. They are our weakest link, along with our still ultra conservative offensive play calling.

I hope we improve our performance next week against the Lions.

it is true that the lack of running game is a problem. forte is on pace for 650 yards rushing.

the lions are coming to town next week. that is a game we must win. can't lose the games we should win. i'm hoping by week 4 we can finally have a break-out game from forte.

NoSkyy · Post #19 » by **NoSkyy** » Mon Sep 28, 2009 3:13 am

Our line sucked this game hard. I don't even know why Omiyale is still in there. I think Chris Williams was pretty good though.

Forte - 21 carries for 66 yards is not going to cut it. Frank Gore ate up the Seahawks for 207 yards on 16 carries a week ago.

The inept play of the O-line is without question mainly the problem.......but Forte looks like an old Marcus Allen right now.

He is not displaying the same vision or burst to create and manufacture yards like he did last year.

Hopefully a break-out game is coming soon.
