Cutler overthrows a wide-open Marshall. I don't know what these announcers keep saying about perfectly thrown balls every time the WR has to make a leaping fingertip catch. It seems to me that a perfect throw wouldn't involve making a highlight grab just to reel it in.

Batted by who? There was no one within ten feet of him. You have to catch that but Cutler didn't make it easy.

Its certainly not a perfectly thrown ball, but anytime a WR has a ball hit him in the hands, its a catchable ball and he should make the catch.

Bush & Forte are mediocre? B Marshall is a legitimate # 1 receiver. His offensive line on the other hand.

Edit: okay his receivers are stinking it up tonight lol

Yeah, yeah. Cutler the martyr. I'm a little tired of QBs getting the blame deflected off of them. Like with the INT on Cutler right there. Yes the receiver should've worked back to the ball, but as a QB you gotta see Woodson in position to undercut that route and not throw it waist-high. The WR doesn't have eyes in the back of his head. If it's not there, it's not there. You don't have to force it.

They are playing the worst D in the league last year. They've yet to even reach the red zone. Shameful.

The Packers have become the Chargers.... only getting Field Goals. Just like the Raiders, I see the Bears not being able to do anything to take advantage of that fact.

If Cutler was to blame on that play, I wouldnt have hesitated to blame him fully. But I think he made a nice throw on a tough corner route in the end zone, and Marshall failed to make the catch. That one is Marshall's fault.

But I agree on his decision making on the interception play. He's gotta see that one coming and put that ball in a better spot for the WR to make a play on it, instead of Woodson.

It's not fair you mod folks can edit your posts and no one can tell. Not fair I say!

That's game. I can not believe I actually thought the Bears would win.

Gimme a mod edit on my first post in the thread declaring myself the wise and all-knowing prophet and where you see Packers, put Bears.

This is a shameful day for my fortune-telling confidence.

Well, as long as other teams are looking bad I'm fine with the outcome.

All I have to say is I hope Greeny from Mike & Mike doesn't pick us in any games. Every pick he makes goes the opposite way lol. He did say Culter & Flacco would have MVP seasons -_-.

Cutler pretending to be Michael Vick.

Can't blame him because he has NO help, especially up front.
