If that's the case, then he is stealing the Bidwell's money. Brian Urlacher is a fucking freak. I haven't seen one player take over a game that way since Michael Jordan played for the Bulls. But the Bears still should have lost this game. Don't hate the Bears for it, though: Hate Denny Green. After that showing, I think he could fuck up a wet dream.

IT was nice to see a gmae that Arizona participated in that was actually entertaining. Denny Green should grow up. The Cards inability to put the game away cost them the game and the buck stops with him. The Bears were what we thoguht they were! Yeah if by that you mean a team so much better than you that they cna turn the ball over 6 times and the offense not score and they still beat your ass. I am not a Bears fan but I loved this game.

Instead the defense went out and won the game, and Brian Urlacher was the hero. It's unconventional, but it gets the job done (see every win of the Bears 2004) As for resenting good teams, I guess it's your prerogative, but it must make it hard to enjoy the playoffs.

Then the Buddy Revell goes and stoops to brass knuckles against the 110 pound cardinals, only this time the punch landed.

He went from being prince of Chi-town to being the man whose shortcomings were exposed by the bonecrushing juggernaut that is the Arizona Cardinals defense. I'll take losing by 1 to the best team in the NFL any day. I feel bad for Rex Grossman right now.

All right, I actually feel a little bad for him. Just because he's on the team that is like the little kid in the analogy that MJD used. And Denny Green might be complaining, but I know what he's saying when he says, "They are who we thought they were." He's saying that they THOUGHT the Bears were just another beatable team that is only standing out in the NFC after playing cream-puff opponents. And he's ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. And the Cardinals let them off the hook. Fine, but that doesn't make Green any less right. Some team WILL expose the Bears for who they really are yet.

I figure it's more of an Arizona, constantly lousy, sort of sentiment in folks wanting to see them get a key win, but I don't know, I kind of feel the opposite. I'm not a Bears fan, don't dislike them or anything like that, but after this game, while I'm not going to root for them, I'm certainly not going to put them anywhere near the class of teams that I resent for winning. In that sense, I don't think they became anything like those other teams last night, I think they moved away from that, separated themselves from those teams. They didn't bully the Cardinals, they just went out and fought resiliently to the end and came away with a win because of their strengths when their QB was having an awful day. They showed more character in that one game than the Patriots, Steelers, Colts, combined have done in the past five years. They weren't arrogant about it, they just kept doing what they do best and it paid off. Plus, Devin Hester is fun to watch. When did Matt Leinart become someone to root for?

By the third quarter they gave up and were going for field goals, running on 3rd and 8 deep in Bears territory. Excuse me Mr. Green, the Bears came in as the number one offense in the league...

If you want to win the game in the end, you don't stop your drive at the 23-yard line and hope your kicker can make a 40-yard field goal. Rackers is good, but 40 yards is no gimme. Leinart could've brought them a lot closer for an easy field goal. Learn how to win! Dennis Green is nuts.

After every play (including the offensive touchdowns), no one felt comfortable. Everyone was saying, "There's too much time. It's only the first quarter." Even with the worst-case scenario mindset, you could feel the wind being sucked out of the stadium on the punt return in the fourth. All my dad could say after the game (being a 14-year season ticket holder), "I'm used to them losing. I don't know why I expected anything different." I felt like an engaged man who spent three-months salary buying an engagement ring for the prom queen with rich parents only to find out at the altar that the bride-to-be sold the ring, flew to Vegas, lost all the money and then decided to participate in the world’s largest gangbang with Mike Tyson leading off to earn some cash.

That's no one's fault but his, not even Rackers. Good God man, even Marty Shottenheimer was embarrassed for you. And what the hell was Theisman doing praising the Cardinals offensive line ALL GAME LONG? Was he even watching the game? Edge got drilled the second he touched the ball, but it didn't really matter anyways because all Denny wanted to do was take three kneels and punt anyways. I'm so pissed off about this game and I could care less about either team. I feel bad for everyone on the Cardinals except Denny Green. I'm just pissed at him.
