  • Alone in First

    control our own destiny.
    We're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

          YESSSS!!! I couldn't stay up to watch the whole game (had to get up at 3 am). From what I saw, I grew concerned that the Cowboys would prevail in a game where the last team with the ball wins. Good to see that Jerruh still hasn't found his December glory hole!

            My thoughts too. Coupled with Forte.

              On the plus side, we should be able to shred Chicago's defense - and it is a home game (We've now proven that we can win at home)!

                No question about that! Marshall by himself is a beast, but with the emergence of Alshon Jeffrery, da Bears passing game is formidable.

                The good news is that their run defense makes the Birds' run defense under 'Wide 9' Washburn look like The Steel Curtain.

                  Hearing Brandon Marshall after the game was quite refreshing. He really is a changed guy and has found himself. The Bears are really headed in the right direction. We will have a real problem stopping them, and it's clear that Cutler is still their guy. The closeness and selflessness of their team reminds me of the Birds. Briggs will be back soon to help the defense. We're better than them on defense, but we'll have to bring the A game to beat them.

                  And fly is right. We need to win out and set our sights higher than Dallas.

                      Yeah, but the Eagles' running game is gonna cause even more matchup problems.

                        I'm still trying to figure out how the Eagles were so stymied on offense in the first game against Dallas. Nick Foles clearly didn't have it that day, but against a team like the Cowboys, it is kind of amazing he didn't.

                          And why didn't we at least run for 250 yards that day?

                            Bears didn't even have to punt last night. Not once.

                            Though if the Cowgirls keep playing like that, we'll be starting our second team when we play them next.

                            Cowgirls have only had a winning record in December once in the last 15+ years. DALLAS SUCKS!

                              It wasn't 9 degrees with a 20 mph wind on Mike Ditka night. They were freezing their asses off and just wanted to get on the plane and go home. I wouldn't put too much stock in that game. They'll be ready for us when the time comes. I'm thrilled that they got beat too, but all this easy talk will get you beat.
