For his week 9 game preparation, Shane Wal-dumb said he will correct the goal line offensive lineman ball carrying by ensuring ALL Bears offensive linemen have a turn. When asked why he is so hesitant to let a RB carry the ball in that situation, Wald-dumb said "The RB? Well duh. You don't think the other team would know the RB would get the ball? I know they aren't expecting one of our reserve tackles carrying the rock!"

I don't see any quit in this team yet. I'll wait for the injury report on the offensive linemen before predicting a score but I can see the defence coming out strong for this one.

Last weeks game does one of two things for this team. It completely galvanizes them and they get on a roll, or it completely rips the heart of them and we enter into a downward spin.

I'm going to keep it real this week and admit that we are going to spiral out of control and it starts this week.

Bears 17 (3 point as time expires in the second half and 2 TDs in the 4th0
Cards 20

N.E. may be the only win we have left in us.

Hope I'm wrong but I think it will be the third time in a row we draft a QB in the first round and his second year he has a new coaching staff.

I am so disgusted with Eberflus that I can't even predict a freaking score.

Away game = Bears tend to suck.

Cards - 20

Bears - 13

Close but no cigar. Offense flounders again.

The defense will maintain its streak. I predict that we will allow a TD and 4 field goals.

The question is whether we finally manage to deliver a performance away from home that isn't disastrous. It won't be a stellar performance, but it will be enough. Defense will help with winning the turnover battle.

My programs thought the Bears would lose last game by 3. I hoped they were wrong, but they were right. This game they think the Bears will win by 7. I hope they're right again.

yeah ... can't let the media see Wal-dumb dust off John Shoop's coloring book to show the offense as his next big thing

Waiting for the injury report. Even if it's only a walkthrough the report is official

Maybe Flus is feeling a hint of mutiny and wants an in-house day to clear the air. Not a bad idea

It might be a walkthrough because of how physically beaten up they were by the Commanders. In addition to the injuries to the OL, Sweat picked up a shin injury, Moore has a sore back, Dexter had some issues, Caleb took some hits etc.

I really dont know what to make of the Cardinals. Some weeks they can look like a well coached, feisty team, and some weeks they look like garbage.

I think we get the first road win in a while, but the offense still sputters.

I'd like to see an injury report before making a prediction, but it's already Wednesday so time to go. I would give a weather report but their stadium has a retractable roof. How will the Bears respond after the worst loss in the history of sports EVAH?! That's what everybody else is saying.

Prediction #1 - OL: Borom, Pryor, Shelton, Davis, Wright

Prediction #2 - Brisker and Gordon are back, Stevenson sits

Prediction #3 - with that OL it makes predicting a little trickier. Allen scores a TD from a flea flicker, Swift scores on a fake reverse, Moore breaks a tackle in the red zone for a score. Once again the D gives up many yards to elusive Murray but holds them to 4 FG's and a late TD.

San Francisco has always been my favorite booing city. I don't mean the people boo louder or longer, but there is a very special intimacy. Music, that's what it is to me. One time in Kezar Stadium they gave me a standing boo.

If Jones can't go, I think they give KA another shot with more prep. Borom isn't the future, and I think they need to see what the kid has. Borom should be active though. Hopefully Tev is ok and can go, but he should probably sit if his back is bothering him.

I could also see them going with KA, Kramer, Shelton, Pryor, and Wright. Not ideal, but I don't think they want to put Davis back on the field.

They might need to bring up Curhan for a game.

It's worrying that Brisker still hasn't cleared the concussion protocol after 3 weeks.
