Bear Down Baffa

The Bears took advantage of another opportunity to shoot themselves in the foot on Sunday and failed to hold onto sole possession of first place after it was gifted to them mid-game.  Despite scoring at least 18 points in every game this year, we’ve allowed at least 20, and on Sunday we allowed 40 for the third time.  We’re on pace to be only the fifth team since 1970 to average both scoring and allowing more than 26 points a game for an entire season.  And for the third time in a row, we followed a win with a loss, as we fall to 3-5 in our last 8 games.  And to add insult to injury, we can’t get any of our hurt players back on the field because Obamacare is failing.

The only time the teams were evenly matched – before the snap

Dark, luminous clouds, 60-mph winds, severe rain and a tornado warning caused a two-hour delay, a rarity in the NFL, and an even more rare event in Chicago in November.  But it turned out to be a blessing in disguise for Hallas’s squad.  We played about 10 mintes before the delay, during which time Baltimore ran out to a 10-0 lead.  Post delay, the Bears out-scored them 23-10.  I guess the nap McCown took during the delay helped.  And we go from destroying our entire season last week to moving back into a tie for first place at 6-4.  As Obama would say, “Yes We Can!”

In a battle for first place with Green Bay going Rodgers-less, and Veteran’s Day celebrations in tow, the Bears blew a chance to take over control of the division.  If we wanted to get swept by Detroit (sucks!), we would have stuck with Lovie Smith and our Obama-nable O-Line.  But at least the fans got to see what a real defensive line looks like.  Unfortunately, it was on the opposing team, and it took turns taking shots at Cutler like he was a Bin Laden target at a gun range.  Ah, I remember the good old days when our defense kept us in games while our offense struggled.  Now our offense still struggles, but our defense sucks.  Hey 2014, how soon can you get here?  We’ve got crack and whores for you if you want them!

The coin toss – the final moments before we tossed our season away

The Bears called “Even Stevens” early on by knocking Aaron Rodgers out on the opening drive, leaving both teams without their star QB’s or their best defensive players.  It may be the first good thing Shea “Where Is Shea-Shea?  Where Is Shea-Shea?  Here I Am!  Here I Am!” McClellin has done so far in his short, lackluster career.  Now I’m not one to celebrate injuries to players in an ultra-violent game where they almost literally put their lives on the line, are paid millions and get all the pussy they can handle while having to work 3 hours a day for 16 days a year.  But in Aaron Rodgers case, halle-fucking-llujah!  That guy’s an asshole!  QB’s don’t do TD “dances.”  At least not ones who respect themselves.  What a toolbox!  And by that I mean a box of tooledness.  If I were on his team, I’d go Richie Incognito on his ass.

McCown is Rex Grossman plus 3 inches – and minus the INT’s
