[QUOTE="Philtration, post: 245793, member: 213"] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Yeah, I agree with both posts here.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]I am not one to put on the blue and orange glasses and if the Bears look like a 6-10 team then I can admit it.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]I rip them in the media here in Chicago whenever I feel that they deserve it and that is most of the time.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Can they fall to 8-8? Yes.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Can they go to the playoffs? Yes.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Can they go to the Super Bowl? Yes. [/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]They are just as talented as the Cardinals and Eagles were last year so why not? I am not viewing Cutler as a savoir and I am not saying that Matt Forte is the next Walter Payton either. I just think that the combination is going to be good for the both of them. The Broncos running game was pretty bad last season and the defense was even worse. Cutler had to carry that team on his shoulders far to often.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]He won’t have to do that here.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]He does not have to throw for 4,500 yards for them to win. Teams were daring Orton to throw the ball because he was weak armed and they knew that he was not going to burn you deep. Even Rex Grossman could go deep if given enough time. It was the one thing that he could actually do well.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]I can’t tell you how many times Hester was wide open and Orton could not get it there.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]That left far too many players in the box just waiting for Forte to run the ball and unless you are Earl Campbell then your yards per carry is going to suffer in that situation.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Forte can get the same type of production as last year without as many carries if Cutler can keep the other team’s D honest and I believe that he will.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Just him being here changes things for the better.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]They have some soft spots on the schedule but they are also the only team in the league that will have to play all 4 of the teams that went to the conference title games last year.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]I am thinking that they will go 10-6 but a 9-7 season is not impossible.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue]Then again neither is 11-5 for that matter.[/COLOR][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][COLOR=Blue][FONT="] [/COLOR][/FONT][COLOR=Blue][/COLOR][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
