What Chicago's farce of a win means.

I guess that would be an idea of the Bears, to try and make teams respect Grossman, and the passing game for them to set up the run kinda like it was before the start of the season with us and the questions about our o-line but that could be what the Bears, are doing but they better fix it in a hurry though.

To me, the Bears are in the most enviable position of any team in the NFL. I agree that they will have to balance there offense before the playoffs get here if they really want to insure a Super Bowl run but in the short term, I don't think it matters. They have such a cake schedule that I don't believe more the 2 or 3 teams have a good enough defense to make them pay. They could continue with what there doing and still win enough ball games to get home field. They are actually pretty balance offensively. I think like 480 runs as opposed to 420 passes. There gonna run enough to keep everybody honest but there going to continue to go down field with the ball. It will only help Grossman develop. By the end of this season, I believe he will be a much improved player and even more so, come next season. They got a good situation over there, right now.

I found the bears even more dominating.

Imagine.......On the road, giving up 6 turnovers, and the offense only scoring 3 points............And you get the win????

If thats not a dominant team, I don't know what is.

Every team lays an egg once in a while, but the teams that can lay an egg and STILL win is what seperates great teams from the rest of the league.

If it takes a missed 40 yard field goal for you to beat a 1-4 team, you are not dominant. You can spin it any way you like, but the Bears didn't produce a dominating performance last night.

I agree with that too as it relates to their schedule but if it were Dallas, that had that same schedule then some on here, and in the cesspool they call the media would say that they're not playing anybody.

I'm not being harsh or a hater about the Bears, do deserve every victory they got and if they win the Super Bowl then I will call them a great team.

Another thing that you pointed out about their running game I remember the 2001 season when the Patriots, won their first of 3 SBs, and they didn't have a world beating ground game either but they had Tom Brady, and that defense so it possible for the Bears as well but we'll see.

 

[AtlCB]

Their not my team, I just find it hilarious when people can talk about a 6-0 team as 'not that good' or a 'fluke.'

The Cowboys, Eagles, Saints, Jaguars, Chargers, Bengals, Ravens, and Patriots would all be undefeated playing that schedule.

Hypothetical situations are meaningless, there is no one anyone can know that.

I mean, the Jaguars got beat by a very mediocre Commanders team. The Bengals got beat by the Buccaneers. There is no way to tell that.

 

[conner01]

any team can be beat on any givn sunday (or monday)
the bears are good but just look at last night and you can see that when a teams really comes to play they can beat anyone. well maybe not the cards but most anyone else.lol

Could be right. It's the price you pay as a Cowboys fan.

At least we agree on that.

 

[dallasfan31]

its shows they can be beat.

That is true, but all of the teams I mentioned are head and shoulders above anybody the Bears have played. At the very least, all of them would be favorites against these teams. The teams listed would be heavy favorites against four of them - Green Bay, Detroit, Arizona, and Buffalo.

 

[ZeroClub]

They do have a cakewalk schedule, but sometimes those schedules are helpful.

Teams can and do improve while playing inferior competition.

And their weaknesses are less likely to be exposed when they finally do play the better teams.

And yet you continue to argue that there is "no way" the Cowboys beat the Bears.

That is my opinion due to two simple words... Drew Bledsoe.

Im not trying to argue about strength of schedule or selecting arbitrary teams and claming they would be 6-0 in the NFC north.

LOL. I know, i just thought this thread was starting to lose momentum, so I gave it a little bump.

No, you are just selecting one player and saying we can't win with player X playing.
