[QUOTE="TJV, post: 623093, member: 4300"] I agree about concern with the run D. The tackling was not good and it seemed their 'run fits' were consistently off - LBs were running past the Bears RBs. Defenders have to do more than just run into gaps. And Cutler's patience at the LOS, waiting to get a better read on the D, may have resulted in the Bears running away from blitzes on several occasions. Of course like everyone else I'm happy with the win but the bad news from this game is the Bears once again have a professional coaching staff in place. • HHCD really needs to tackle better - and part of that is to come to balance as he gets near the RB - or QB. • I really don't know what Shields was thinking on the chip-shot FG attempt. The chances of blocking that aren't good enough to justify the risk of being off sides. • Just watching it live I got the impression Palmer covered Forte as a receiver better than Matthews did. I'll have to take another look at that. • Richardson was on the field to start the game and he pressured Cutler into an incompletion on the fourth-and-goal play. • The Bears didn't register a sack and the number of pressures will probably look better on paper than what I saw on the field. I probably have too high expectations but it looked like the OL didn't perform as well as they did at the end of last season. I hope it's because a couple of them are still recovering from injury. • Montgomery was great returning kick offs. • Crosby looked great on the FG, PATs and KOs, Masthay was a disappointment again. His first punt went 54 yards but was a touchback (net 34 yards) - that sometimes happens even with a decent punt. But his second punt from the EZ was a line drive that went 43 yards and was returned for 11 (net 32). The Bears started at the Packers' 41. That's a 'money kick' a punter can prove his worth on. He's still got time to improve but the weather conditions won't be any better... [/QUOTE]
