If we have such a great defense...and we do...then why cant they tune up our O line and get them ready? that doesnt make sense...unless they just suck!

Yeah-the Bears have an 8 game win streak with a worse O than us, so why can't we pull one too?

Don't sweat it-we'll straighten out the O-line problems in Jan.

While I wouldn't use a strong term like "suck", they're clearly the weak link on this team...

Becareful when you say they have worse O than us. They actually can run the ball and have better run offense than we do.

The bears have a much better OL then us. And even though our defense is great, it's not as good as the Bears defense.

That's like saying we have a great cornerback, so why can't we make our wide receivers better.

The Bears have 1 rookie starting on their defense this year and he is a safety. How many starting rookies do we have? A key injury has hurt us as well. We are still a player or two away from a defense as dominant as the Bears but I think we can get there.

As far as the OL is concerned, there is a thing called talent. Coaching can not compensate much for a lack of this. See the 2004 edition of the Cowboys. What changed since last year? Talent at key positions.

They don't hand the ball to the other team's middle linebacker and let him waltz into the endzone either.
