Urlacher out for the season....

ouch, the loss of Urlacher probably makes the NFC north a two team race now. Don't get me wrong, games against the Lions(2), Browns, Bengals, Seahawks, Cardinals, 49ers and Rams should make for an easy 8 wins but the Steelers, Ravens, Vikings (twice) and Packers are even tougher than they would have been.


Edit: Karma's a bitch. A Vikings fan should know better than to draft A. Rodgers in his fantasy leagues =( massive disappointment last night.

Wow, they kept talking prior to the game that Urlacher was finally fully healthy from all of the injuries that have plagued him over the years. Tough break.

To the Bears fans trying to place the blame on the receivers: Why? On one of his interceptions, he threw is to the Packers twice before the third time was picked, one was a great play by a D lineman, and one was Cutler running out of the pocket and tossing it downfield, again, nowhere near his receiver.

As for the Browns.... another LONG year. Yay :\ Sundays will be painful.

that was the first thing i thought of when i read the headline. They were saying first time in years he was 100%. major blow to the team, and makes the division slightly less interesting. as it was a solid 3 team race and now kinda only a 2.5 team race. how the bears handle all these injuries remains to be seen.

from what i saw i think 2 were on the receiver, and the other 2 were caused by pressure causing him to make bad throws.

Clark screwed him over a couple times, Bennett once, and Knox did at the end. If your receiver stops his route, doesn't come back to the ball or falls on his ass, that's not something the QB can control. Olsen dropped a 3rd down conversion that hit him right in the numbers.

No questions Culter made a number of mistakes, but his receivers exaggerated just how bad his play really was.
