Bears vs Vikings Game Thread *MERGE*

The Bears OL is awesome.

what has changed from last season?

 

[JPM]

I think it's the Bears OL. They're play like bullfighters.

Ole !

They look very, very good. Chicago is not getting enough pressure on Favre and they are being picked apart. And they're making it look easy, too.

If we end up playing them, we will need to pressure Favre. He has tended to fall apart with pressure but he looks pretty unflappable back there right now.

Favre has been getting rid of the ball pretty quickly when they do bring pressure. It would be an interesting matchup if Dallas got to play them in the playoffs. This team is well put together in all 3 phases.

Minnesota needed a quarterback and Favre was the perfect solution due to the fact that the current Minny OC is the same guy Favre had in GB back in his glory days.

Then again Rice is the exact same receiver as Roy, and I DO think Roy will get it turned around eventually, so this may end up being a moot point. But watching the Vikings play today (and all season) I've become an even bigger Sidney Rice fan.

Vikings are a just a good team. IMO they are better than the Saints too.

He does look tough. He looks like a man possessed, on a mission for a Super bowl. He's playing the best ball of his life right now. Making plays when he has too, no turnovers, etc. Scary.

Percy Harvin does not suck.

that catch over the middle was ridiculous. especially for someone his size.

That was crazy. Hell, that pass was probably not Favre's best idea with 3 white jerseys in the area, but Harvin went up, got it, took the hit, and came down with it.

Heck of a play.

I agree. They don't have a gimmicky offense like the Saints, and are far more disciplined.

Saints are to finesse for me.

People fall in love with teams like that because they look good but playoff football is all about being physical.

I mean the Saints aren't the greatest show on turf Rams or anything.




If you compared it to College you would say the Cowboys and Vikings play an SEC style of football and the Saints play a Big 12 style of football.

Cutler always looks like he is so angry that he is going cry.

 

[peplaw06]

Favre has 47 attempts with 12 minutes left in the 4th. Adrian Peterson, who most people consider the best RB in football has 17 carries, and the Vikings have 19 total carries. Offensive balance is overrated.

what did the Vikes give up for Jared Allen?

that's a smart business decision
