Ever since the Chicago Bears fired Lovie Smith and Devin Hester had his now infamous hissy fit proclaiming he wanted to retire, I have been trying to figure out exactly what he is so angry and frustrated with. At a glance Hester appears to be getting a handsome salary in 2013, his base salary will [...]
Well I am now 0-6 in championship game predictions over the past three seasons. Interestingly enough I felt sure the ‘Harbowl’ would take place last season, but a stellar second half performance from the Baltimore Ravens ensured the football world wouldn’t miss out on this glorious event for a second season running. Credit the Ravens, [...]
The Baltimore Ravens grabbed the bull by the horns in the 2013 AFC Championship Game against the New England Patriots with two very well constructed and executed touchdown drives on their second and third drives of the second half at Foxborough. However, the first really huge play came of a brutal hit from Bernard Pollard [...]
Huge plays win title games, or in the case of the Baltimore Ravens, in the 2012 AFC Championship game, failing to cash in on huge plays or indeed complete them will lose you games. The commitment on defense is there yet again from the Ravens and I suppose the manner in which they have stifled [...]
It is halftime in the 2013 AFC Championship game between the New England Patriots and the Baltimore Ravens and few important plays have kept this a nail bitter at the half. This game hasn’t had the big plays we all saw in the NFC Championship Game, the real story was the Ravens defense holding Tom [...]
The NFL season is drawing close to its conclusion, in less than 12 hours everyone will know which two teams will be competing for the Vince Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans in Super Bowl XLVII. In what turns out to be a repeat of last season’s AFC Championship game the Baltimore Ravens will once again [...]
With the a new era dawning at Halas Hall for the Chicago Bears, Marc Trestman announced in his introductory press conference, that despite talking to the veteran defensive coach, Rod Marinelli couldn’t be persuaded to return to the Bears’ side lines in 2013. With a new coaching structure beginning to take shape and Marinelli walking [...]
Since arriving as the hallowed savior of Halas Hall four years ago, Jay Cutler has yet to put up the numbers or be a part of that elite offense everyone expected when Jerry Angelo traded for him in 2009. I firmly believe that Cutler has the raw ability to lead the Chicago Bears to more [...]
What do the 2010 Chicago Bears and the 2012 Washington Redskins have in common? Both had franchise quarterbacks who due to knee injuries were playing their respective playoff games on one leg and both didn’t make the Super Bowl in their respective playoff runs. This however is where the similarities between these two organizations end. [...]
I have come to the realization that many are guilty of being unable to rationally discern what they actually want from the Chicago Bears in return for their respective fandom. After enduring many tweets during the Washington Redskins playoff game with the Seattle Seahawks yet again questioning Jay Cutler’s toughness and drive, a sentiment which [...]
