Sooo ...
This is how it's going to be, huh?
Quick reactions:
Feeling good about the 'D.'
Feeling lukewarm about the 'O.'
Feeling just a little better 'O'verall, even though a Monday night showdown in Big 'D' is cause for concern.
I cannot believe what I just saw:
The Bears' first play from scrimmage was not play-action pass.
A simple solution:
It looks like Jay Cutler has finally figured it out: When you keep your helmet on on the sidelines, it's hard for the cameras to catch smirky, frumpy or any other look.
But:
Helmet or not, a 58 QB rating ain't going to cut it against top-tier teams.
Early MVP:
Tim Jennings.
Nicely done:
A pregame tribute at Soldier Field and a halftime commercial spot saluting the career of NFL Films president Steve Sabol.
Classy.
Refs say the darndest things:
Saint Looie?
Really?
What?
No shoving, no cursing, no pointing?
I'm guessing that means kudos to you, J'Marcus Webb.
The quote:
"You know who's smiling now? Steve Sabol."
