Chicago Bears +6 Is A Gift

[Stevedore]

Pavy rarely loses posted plays.

Wasn't he on Atlanta last year against GB?

[ShogunRua]

Detroit is probably the craziest crowd in the entire NFL. and this is going to be our first monday night game. also, remember what happened to detroit last year when they faced the bears?

The bears offensive line is going to get destroyed by Detroit, who has the best d line in the entire league probably.

good luck, bears may cover but they're rnot winning this game.

Thank you for posting your thoughts Goat...it is much appreciated.

After reading your opinions/analysis on the game, I think I will hit the Bears ML harder. Good luck.

[Stevedore]

The Bears are a JOKE. Yeah I know I'm a Packers fan, but anybody WHO CAN BE OBJECTIVE and not blinded by myopic fandom can see the Bears offensive line is crap, their defense isn't the same without Harris at safety; (Major Wright is a complete bust at safety), Jay Cutler has some of the worst fundamentals (footwork) of any QB in the league. How has Cutler performed in BIG GAMES on the road the last few years? He'll play the game of his life on the road against one of the hottest teams in the league playing on Monday night for the first time in a thousand years? Yeah right..... I actually feel sorry for Cutler, he has the worst GM in the league in Angelo who gives him no help on offense, trades away his boy in Olsen and hasn't seen enough from Forte to give him a extension. Good luck to all the people putting their hard earned $$ on Cutler in a big game.

[GunShard]

Bears poor offensive line will humiliate Jay Cutler again.

[Ice House]

is Nick Fairley finally going to play?

[dontbuythehook]

every1 here on the bears is just drinking lakerboy kool-aid. wait for line to hit 3 then pound detroit otherwise just wait for det to get crushed in the first half to get a favorable live/2h line

[jstblaze]

This guy PRISCILLA22 must lose a lot of money.

I dont know who is going to win this game, at 6 its a tough line in my opnion, but just based on the attitude of this guy and the unwillingness to see himself as a biased bears fan msut cost him lots of dough cross the board.

Disregard any atl plays as that is the homer in him. Otherwise the guy is stellar on posted plays. Hey dontbuyhook why u mentioning me?

[Mr Handicapable]

I'm not totally buying in on Detroit quite yet! They were down 27-3 to Dallas....who was without their best receiver (Austin) and Romo gifted them the game. The same Dallas offense that couldn't score a TD against Washington at home. Detroit doesn't run the ball either so its not a safe bet they can hold a lead if they ever get one. Chicago has a better running game and special teams....too hard to call imo!

[McBa1n]

Wow, what a joke of a thread dealing with Cutler and the Bears. Is anyone actually WATCHING them? I mean, besides that 1 playoff game.
Glad everyone is so certain they're the worst team in the NFL and Cutler stinks and the O Line stinks. Keep pushing that line up for Monday Night.

Pris was spot on with Chi's D and Special Teams. Sheesh. Those 2 units are amongst the best in the NFL at generating offense. Kicking to Hester is absolutely stupid. Even if they don't kick to him, Bears are getting huge gains in field position whether he touches the ball or not. These are very important things other than "I read some report in the paper that Cutler sucks."
Bears +6 is an automatic play even if they are as bad as the majority of the people in this thread seem to believe.

can somebody from detroit please tell me if Nick Fairley is going to play ?


can't wait to see Suh and Fairley on the field at the same time.

[Educ8d Degener8]

Even if he does play, I wouldn't rate Fairley as much of a factor given they will ween him into playing shape... would expect limited snaps...

I'm pretty sure he was fading GB all throughout the playoffs last year and getting his ass handed to him. With regards to this play, isn't it stupid to fade a streaking team and say this is the week they struggle? Taking +3.5 on the road is one thing, but this spot is entirely different. It's Detroit or pass.

Exactly
This thread is funny--Jay "I haven't won an important game since highschool" Cutler is gonna take down Det with an a leaky O line & an aging defense.Why because SUPERMAN Devin Hester will score 7 special teams TD's

No you are not sure. Here was my sequence of plays during playoffs last year:

Green Bay to beat Eagles - Won
Atlanta to beat Green Bay - Lost
Green Bay to beat Bears - Won
Green Bay to beat Steelers - Won

But because the pick about the Falcons winning was more popular they only remember that play and ignore the other 3 winners. So you are wrong about fading GB throughout the playoffs. I was 3-1 with Green Bay in the playoffs last year.

Are you talking about the same Jay Culter who has beaten Detroit their last 4 meetings with a 100+ pass rating in each game (9 TD, 1 INT)? Since none of those games were important, then why is this game important?

[thechaoz]

It's annoying how bad Stafford is on madden 12

What the hell is a "BIG GAME"? Aren't they all big? The Bears were 6-2 on the road last season (including 2 wins @ Ford Field). I guess the 2 losses were BIG while the 6 wins were....ummmm, small?

[kfranz31]

cowboys and lions have the same colors=same result

[goldengreek]

Yes Detroit Lions are 4-0 but Chicago is the best team they will face until now. I think Chicago's running game will keep the ball away from the Detroit offense and the Bears will cause some turnovers. This is MNF and the game will be tight until the end.

Taking the +6 points is a no brainer.

can somebody from detroit please tell me if Nick Fairley is going to play ?

He is practicing but I read today that he won't be playing.

2 wins at ford field?

[late4thegame]

2 wins at ford field?

Two wins at Ford Field? and one loss at home, if Johnson gets a td on that crap call in the end zone.

[TehSharp]

word on the street is he's going to play

Monday night divisional game. Should be an easy cover for Chicago.

You're a moron. I rarely bet on teams I am a fan of.

I took that +3 opening weekend because it was free money, but I didn't touch them +4.5 against the Packers.

And for all of the talk about how horrible the Bears are, they've only lost to 2 of the best teams in the NFL this year... The Lions are not on the same level as the Packers and Saints. They simply aren't.

The Bears will ALWAYS be undervalued because the Bears have tons of huge plays on defense and special teams, and the public consider these types of plays 'flukes.'

What they don't take into account is that the Bears play a cover 2 shell defense, waiting for big plays on defense, and that they have the best return man in the history of the NFL.

It isn't a fluke when the Bears get a pick 6 or a punt return. It is more of a fluke when they don't get one considering the numbers.

Pavy stavros starvos is an idiot

He don't know shit about the lions or the NFC North

He's a fukkin falcons fan

[priskilla22]

For the record, I'm not hitting the +6 that hard. A small play for me, but it isn't a lock by any imagination.

If the Bears have a good game plan and can run it well early and set up play action, they have just as good of a shot to win as Detroit. If they get down early and have to pass it too much, it'll turn into the Saints game. Lovie's teams have always played well in the division though, so Bears +6 is a good enough play.

[priskilla22]

And I know some of you refuse to admit this, but the Bears' D held the Panthers in check in the 2nd half. Only 3 points until a last second TD that was facilitated by the time on the clock and the fact the Bears were up 11 and just played prevent.

The Lions aren't going to be able to run on the Bears D... they'll pile up some yards in the passing game, but if they can force Stafford into 3rd and predictables, there is going to be some big play interceptions possible.

[d2bets]

2 wins at ford field?

The destroyed dome game vs. Minnesota.

[late4thegame]

The destroyed dome game vs. Minnesota.

Wasn't that the Giants?

[d2bets]

Wasn't that the Giants?

I don't recall if there was more than one game but the Bears definitely played the Vikings at Ford Field (Monday night game).

[late4thegame]

I don't recall if there was more than one game but the Bears definitely played the Vikings at Ford Field (Monday night game).

That is not correct, with all due respect. It was the Giants and Vikes at Ford Field on MNF and there was only ONE game at Ford Field. The other was the outside frozen tundra game.

[Tech N9ne]

anyone that bets the bears will lose their shirt

I fukkin guarantee that shit
