Thank You Dennis Green! The Bears Are Worse Than We Thought They Were!

I don't want to hear about the Bears vaunted defense. Or ever hear the words, Monsters of the Midway" again! I don''t want to hear we get off the bus running ever again. The Bears are barely better than the Detroit Lions and by chance the last team they beat.
The Bears are average at best. The Bears defense hasn't been dominant since the days of Ditka and Buddy Ryan! It's getting hilarious to hear other teams say the know how good the Bears defense is but they still have to go out and play their game. This video of yesterdays game will make the rounds of every NFL lockerroom and possibly every blooper reel for the next decade. No they didn't get beat 59-0 like the Tennessee Titans and they are not winless like the Cleveland Browns and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but they are way overrated and way over hyped. They have put so much money and personnel into this defense and going as far as hiring the former Detroit Lions head coach to work with their defensive line, yes the same coach of the same Detroit Lions who became the first team ever to go 0-16 last year. Is it the defensive scheme or is it the ones coaching it? Is it time for Lovie to go? I would say so but there are ten games left for him to help himself out the door without an uproar from the fans. Everyone thought the Bears would be better just because we got a franchise quarterback. But Jay cutler cannot play defense even though he is heling out the other defenses by throwing a bunch of picks. I still do not believe that this loss is his fault. You cannot win a ball game with just 35 yards rushing while your former running back goes for 189 yards and swears revenge has nothing to do with it. The offensive line has been a bust for years now and signing Orlando Pace and Frank Omiyale has done nothing for the offensive line. You cannot just say this was a bad day that happens from time to time or the Bengals just had a good day at home. For a team that has not scored this many points the entire season they just showed every glaring weakness the Bears have on both sides of the ball. I think the key word is preparation. They were not prepared to play against the Falcons or the Bengals and they had a bye week to do just that. It's not possible that I am the only one who saw this coming. But Dennis Green said it best in 2006 and it still holds true today. The Bears suck!
