The bye couldn't have come at a better time. We needed to regroup and get refocused to get things ironed out as we start down the stretch. We will snuff the Bear rushing attack, and with Erasmus coming back into the rotation at DE, we should have a big game sack wise. Defensive takeaway's and mistake free offense will be the key to getting a win on the road in Soldier Field.

Seen we have just seen in our last 4 games and
the situation of tha Bears rigth now ,I ll tell you one;
Beware of the refs in Soldier Field ,I got a bad feeling about it.

My we needed this bye so bad. Now, let's hope Chilli makes the adjustments from the first 4 weeks. The Bears will be tough tho at home.

The key to victory is to make the correct adjustments.
We have been making poor adustments at halftime.
Your star back rushed for 104 yards in the first half.
In the second half he only gets two carries.
That is the wrong adustment to make.

IMO the Bears game will be a boring game(for non Vikes fans of course) ,played under the control of Defenses,the clue of the games will be in D an O Lines,last nigth I saw the Pack-Bears game and I definitely think we have a chance at Chicago,the Bears are a"similar"team to the Vikes,with a solid defense and a weak offense hold by a low average QB Griese,I predict a low and close final score,a very similar one to the KC game,I hope it ends better for us....

I think I will bring Jose to watch the game.
A 12 pack of premium and a liter of Cuervo will help me get through the agony of watching our offense.

AD and Chester need to touch the ball at least 60% of the time we have the ball. No returns for AD. Lots of screens, pick up the damn blitz. I know we have this lame form of a WCO, but we gotta run more then pass. If we stick to that, some things should open up in the second half.
