Bears almost stun, then stunned by Falcons

Easy there tuff guy.....no cheap shots, just alerting her that one Jerry Angelo is burning her family's money by resigning players to huge contracts past their prime....i.e. Harris and Urlacher.

Stand down soldier.

Third game now that the defense folded in the last 5 minutes of a game.

The Bears are getting every bit what they deserve.

7-9 coming.

Keep it up and I'll be back. Oh and how are Michael Vick and Bobby Petrino working out for you?

Yer a funny guy Sherman.. Come on back, and since most of Atlanta's residents are Yankees like myself, we'd sure get a kick outta you being here..

Mick Vick? Loser
Bobby Petrino? Quitter

No bones about that. They suck, but didn't choke, Sherman. ;-)

Also, its apparent now that Vasher and Tilman cannot stay healthy ala DT Harris. Dvorcek was the only D lineman that had a decent game today. Still waiting to hear Ogunleye and Urlacher's names being called.

be thankful you don't cheer for the bengals, who are currently 0 for the season. i am a season ticket holder and we face the steelers next sunday.. way too much fun.. woo hoo.. and your coach, lovie smith, is still a genius compared to our coach, marvin "giggles" lewis.

Yeah, sure--if the thugs don't get you first.

I am pretty pissed right now, much like after the Tampa Bay loss. But, this is not a season killer. We just have to win our divisional games. As of the current standings, we only have 1 game left against a team with a winning record (Tennessee). However, we face 4 teams that are 3-3. 9-7 will probably win this division.

Mike Brown got beat; it's really that simple.
No one needs to lose their job, and I do believe the Bears ARE going to win this division.
Orton played like a champion today, so did Greg Olson and Rashied Davis.

Keep drinking the Kool-Aid, you moron!

I'm sick and tired of drunk Bears fans who lost money gambling taking cheap shots at Halas' daughter.

I don't agree with her politically on anything, but you have to treat a lady like a lady.

I'm also sick of Bears fans acting like total meatheads. We're second only to Philly fans for being the most embarrassing in America.

Mike Brown blew this game -he didn't cover his guy.

Orton stepped up, Rashied David stepped up, Greg Olson stepped up.

Angelo is total class, so is Lovie.

Why do you eat your own?

And we ARE going to win this division. Green Bay, Detroit and Minnesota are CREAM PUFFS.

Chances are, if you're a meathead thug, you don't know jack about the internets tubes.

Of course, I'm not literally going to come up to Chicago, but I stand by my statement -a lady should be treated like a lady.

The bears final kick-off (sqib) cost them the game.
This lose is on the coaches! A deep kick would
have caused the time to run out,

Lovie Smith cost the Bears the game by calling for a squib kick and allowing the Falcons to get into position to kick the winning field goal. Smith should be fired. There is just no excuse for an NFL coach to make such a terrible call.

Every coach in the history of the NFL would have made that call -George Halas and Vince Lombardi, no exceptions.

We just got beat. Accept it, and move on.

The Bears will probably win the division -Orton looked like a CHAMPION today.

I will, Hawaiian punch is my favorite flavor!

I'm surprised nobody blamed Obama for the Bears losing the game.

Forget the squib, forget the pre-vent, forget Mike Brown's missed-it-by-that-much coverage on that last pass. The reality is, this loss -- like most other Bear defeats in recent history -- is Ron Turner's fault.

Why wasn't Orton throwing to the tight ends in the first half? And why in the heck did Turner call that ridiculous up-the-gut draw on 4th and goal? Where is the logic to having the quarterback take the ball 5 yards into the backfield to hand it off in an effort to gain less than a yard? Hey Ron, ever heard of the goose? Or how about running that play from a 3- or 4-wide set? Or maybe a direct snap to Forte? Be creative. Oh yeah, I forgot, Ron Turner's playbook is a post-it note. Useless.

You realize you are the only one on this blog that thinks Angelo and Smith are "class" and "good". I'm all for being optimistic and all but I have also been trained to see what's in front of my eyes. And what I see is an inept coaching staff and a GM who misses more than he hits. Lovie Smith will NEVER bring the Bear a ring. NEVER. We are just treading water with this bunch. If Mother McCaskey wants a winner before she passes, she needs to load up the truck and hire Bill Cowher who would be ideal for Chicago.
If Lovie wins a SuperBowl in Chicago, I will walk from Chicago to his little hometown down there in Texas and kiss his feet!

How many championships have the Falcons won? They suck like Home Depot.

agree on the squib, but it's clear out Bears don't practice situational defense. How do you let a receiver have a free run at the sidelines? Bad coaching in my opinion...you drill that sort of stuff into the heads of the players before they take the field in that situation and it appears the Bears we celebrating and not preparing to keep the falcons from scoring....rather disappointing if you ask me...

It's NOT bad coaching. Mike Brown BLEW this game, plain and simple.

I love Mike Brown to death, but he did BLOW THIS GAME.

Bears playing like baby bears= Cubs. They lost because they are playing just like the Chicago Cubs of major league baseball. hahahah
