| If I were the Bears I would have put in Brian G. 2nd half, what did they have to lose. |

| | VN GURU | Until the pick six, the Bears were looking at the very real chance of winning that game. Grossman didn't perform nearly as badly as revisionist media hype would have us all believe.... |

| | smh | It's extremes with that game... Like nobody can agree on what actually happened. Grossman did play awful, especially late in the game. So the media is right on that account. But he was doing ok for most of the game, and the Bears were in it until the end, despite all the mistakes they were making. As a team.
Besides, you know how Lovie Smith feels about Rex Grossman. He's their guy. |

You have to be kidding me. Not being able to accomplish the qb/center exchange looks pretty bad to me. |

| | smh | Although in reality Manning's stats weren't eye-popping. He hit it when it counted, though. |

After the first 15 seconds, Indianapolis outscored them 29-10. |

22-17 in 4th quarter.
i agree that the score wasn't as close as the game looked, but the score was what it was. the reality is that the bears, despite all the bad stuff, in the 4th quarter were one score away from taking the lead.
and if we're being technical, it's really 22-10 if your're going take away Hester's TD, you have to take away the colts pick 6. both cheap td's.

but i would also point to the Bears Defense. they couldn't get off the feild. the colts dominated the TOP. they had the ball for the entire 1st half of the 3rd quarter. nearly a full hour in real time went by between Bears possesions in the 2nd and 3rd qtr.
the defense gets a stop or two...who knows. that game was in doubt until the pick six. end of story.
