    …can we suit up Simmons and Joyner? That’s not against the rules right?

    i may be biased but he was definitely early and bear hugged Maclin. Is that just too close to call for the refs?

    Okay . . . the running game is done for the night.

    What McCoy have, 5 carries.

    In a 7 point game w/ 30 minutes left.

  6. 6 Andrew Moore said at 10:36 PM on November 7th, 2011:

    McCoy is a hero, but we just don’t have it in us to win this game. Bears have our number.

  7. 7 marc said at 10:37 PM on November 7th, 2011:

    Lance Briggs is playing 5 positions . . . at the same time.

    That’s why LBs matter.

    The Bears play defense like they have 20 guys on the field. There are 2 guys on every receiver and 8 in the box

    Not a fan of that call. Fake handoff to Brown (taking McCoy off the field) and then running to that side of the field with only 2 options on that side of the field.

    Or is Bobby April a genius to have these kickoffs just short enough that they’re actually covered better than if Henery kicked deeper?

    Has April solved the 2011 kickoff puzzle?

    I think outside of Rodgers, who is the hands down favorite for MVP without any competition really, McCoy is definitely one of the best offensive players if not NFL players in the league right now.

    Why the hell can’t the offense function against a Cover 2? Exactly how much smarter is Lovie than Marty? This is as much the offenses fault as the defenses. What LB do we draft with AZs pick?

    DRC should be ashamed… what a lack of effort. And I thought we hosed AZ in that deal.

    Asante why play 5 yards off in the endzone? WHY? You are no longer my friend.

  213. 213 the guy said at 11:59 PM on November 7th, 2011:

  214. 214 Anonymous said at 12:05 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    How do you get that from that?

    The defense is atrocious. That’s pretty obvious. They performed worse at rushing the passer than any other team that has played Chicago this year. That’s a fact.

    Maybe it’s because the scheme is utter shit, or the LBs are so bad they can do a lot of quick passes and running plays, or Nnamdi and DRC are such awful excuses for CBs that Cutler didn’t need to hold the ball.

    But this defense SUCKS, despite the coming tsunami of “Chicago just played us tough!” and “Great work from their OL” bullshit stories.

  215. 215 the guy said at 12:09 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    You need to look at the scores. The defense allowed 10 points on drives 60+ yards and scored a TD.

    The offense scored 17 points, and 7 came after a turnover.

  216. 216 Anonymous said at 12:16 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    You need to look at the SCORE. Or Time of Possession. Or Yards. Or anything.

    Never getting any pressure on the opposing QB, when he plays behind a terrible offensive line, is a sign of a bad defense. You can disagree, but you can’t change the fact that it’s true.

  217. 217 the guy said at 12:27 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    The defense helped the offense with turnovers and a TD. The offense and ST did not help the defense.

    In your mind, does the Eagles offense have more or less talent or coaching experience than the defense?

  218. 218 Jon Blank said at 12:12 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    Gave up 30 points, didn’t lay a finger on Cutler, couldn’t stop the run and the secondary got torched. Offense definitely came up small in the 4th, but the defense blew another lead and came up small in crunch time.

  219. 219 the guy said at 12:19 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    10 of those 30 points came on drives under 20 yards. Another 10 came on drives around 50-55 yards.

    I’m not going to claim the defense played well (DRC and the pass rush was terrible). But again, I can understand why.

  220. 220 Jon Blank said at 11:54 PM on November 7th, 2011:

    I said we’d know more about this team aftert this game, and I feel like we do, a lot more.

    1. Our high priced cornerbacks are not taking football seriously. Every Bears highlight in the first half had one of our cornerbacks jogging after the play, slapping his hands and whining for a call, looking for the refs to do the job for them. Asomaugh has to interfere in press man in a critical situation? Asante wants no part of high-pressure coverage in the end zone? I’m fine with the laughing and smiling after you make a play, but they aren’t playing hard during the plays. They’re acting liek their shit doesn’t stink and the problem with the D is everyone else. Wrong; it’s them. The CBs are the most underachieving unit on this team, and they’re rotting the D from the inside.

    2. Maclin is a god damn choke artist! Fumbles, drops, slips. He’s our best WR, but how many games has he had a chance to save on the last play only to blow it? Come on, man!

    3. DeSean Jackson is nowhere to be seen. He’s never getting open downfield anymore. I don’t care how they’re covering him. He’s disappearing.

    4. We got beat one-on-one everywhere on the field tonight. The only guy who could win a one-on-one battle tonight was LeSean. There’s no where we lock people down. Our receivers aren’t getting open in man coverage, our secondary ain’t covering in man coverage, our D-Line didn’t get pressure one-on-one, our O-line couldn’t stop the Bear’s d-line one-on-one. We’re not winning anything. The only thing that’s working is the running game, and that only works until the D decides to stop it.

    I’m most dissappointed in our cornerbacks, though. The Bears had guys running around all night. That’s not the GSoT Rams out there, they’re second-rate receivers, and we still couldn’t shut the passing game down. What a waste!

  238. 238 the guy said at 12:06 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    The Eagles offense scored 2 TDs, one off a turnover, and you’re upset with the corners?

    Yes! The Chicago bears with Roy Williams ripped them apart. Yes, I’m ashamed of that effort we saw from the CBs. They were bad from the first quarter through to the last.

    At least the Offense was playing the Chicago Bears D, you know they’re not going to score much. When the Bears O needed to move the ball on us, it wasn’t even difficult, they just marched down the field.

  240. 240 Thorin McGee said at 12:13 AM on November 8th, 2011:

    And did you see how often guys were running to thier spots and waiting, just catching the runners instead of moving up and tackling? You have to move through the spot and make the tackl,. When your feet stop, your going to get run over or around, and they did.

    This team has played like a team that expected to be handed the playoff berth the whole year, save the last couple weeks versus dallas and washington. The moment we got a convincing and important win, they reverted right back to the sloppy, undisciplined, tepid and listless football we saw all through the start of the year.

    Imo this isn’t a talent issue, and is only a coaching issue insofar as they have not impressed the urgency of the situation sufficiently on the players.

    New England
    @ Seattle (4 days after New England)
    @ Miami
    NYJ
    @ Dallas
    Washington

    If we were an average team I’d say, “Great!” But we’re not.

    I predict 3-5 to finish out… a 6-10 season. Insane.

    I think they can beat Arizona, but the rest of the games are toss ups. Seattle is a long way away form Philly and Miami is competitive in all their games. The Gmen are just a better team. New England will probably get their shit together by the time we get to them. Covered Miami. NYJ can run the football now. Dallas will want revenge. Washington might actually be a win too…

    I can see us going 5-3 and maybe an outside chance of 6-2, but with the Giants at 6-2 right now, I don’t think that gets us into the playoffs. And personally, I know Tommy hates discussing it, but if the Eagles don’t make the playoffs, ARs job should be on the line. The way I see it, you keep AR around because he gets you into the playoffs which gives you a chance to win the superbowl. If he fails to do that, after 13 years of no superbowl wins, you have to move on.

    Is Henry capable of throwing the ball 30 yards to a wide open guy?

    These idiots are done. Just way too sloppy in a must win game and an inexcusable 4th quarter. After tonight, I might be ok with another 1st round pick spent on a wide receiver.

    But we would get cute and draft a safety with a 3 rd grade, then move him to WR…The front office would say how much of a steal hew was…just like Teo’neshim…..

    They’re moving Teo’neshim to WR?! It’s about time, he looks great in practice and is so talented.

    Making the same mistakes over and over tells me this……either the coaches are providing the proper discipline and motivation to correct the mistakes OR the players aren’t listening. Either way is a failure of leadership?

    Am I wrong? The eagles prove me right each week. Tune in next week and you’ll see the same mistakes…….a god dammed 8 yd route when you need 10….that’s. Pop Warner mistake. It really is

    Couple observations:

    1. Don’t recall Trent Cole ever missing so many tackles.
    2. Constantly saw our DL tripping and falling on their rush. I’m sure we could have had at least one gimme sack with all of Chicago’s broken plays, if not for our guys always falling down.
    3. Desean took a big step backward. If the ball hits you in the hands, you catch it or you’re not a good NFL receiver.
    4. Make the 3-step drop a permanent part of the offense. Please.

    A bad flash back to the start of the year, but I do think the defense has progressed.
