I hate to burst your bubble, but Ron Rivera, defensive coordinator of the Bears (3-0), also using the Tampa 2, has his defense only giving up 23 points after 3 games.

well, IMO it was the first coach that had to defend against the first forward pass...so i guess that would be the great-great-great-great-great-grandfather of the tampa 2... ;D :

;D

peace...

Perhaps, but Rivera also enjoys the company of farm animals, so he is therefore disqualified. In addition, I don't think Rivera ever coached in Tampa, so his version is just a cheap knock off that happens to work better than the original.

Chicago defense has given up 0 points to the Packers, 7 points to the Lions, and 9 points to the Vikings (TD was off an INT) so that makes 16 points given up by the Bears defense.

Heck, any team can do that...especially if the refs award them LAME offensive pass interference calls everytime their DBs a$$es get beat on long passes!

All I can say is "personel."

In order to run it, you have to have players than can run it.

thats proving our point =\ while we all know the bears have an amazing defense, they have just faced the packers, lions, and vikings, 3 not so hot offenses.
not taking anything away from them though =)

and chances are the vikings should have had at least one offensive TD =\ maybe better if robinson played and taylor didnt fumble, but hey, thats what if's, so ignore this last part
