Two bad performances in a row. I used to think they were no question top 5, but now we are lucky if they are top 10. They look below average honestly.

The defense did not have a bad performance today. They had a really bad play at the end of the game but held an 8 and 3 team to 17 points on the road yet.

A VERY depleted 8-3 team to 17 points.
Last week I thought it was fatigue. This week? I dont know anymore.

warden":22fsyt2h said:3 second year players and and 2 rookies (counting Irvin) on your starting unit, you really expect to see some struggles, some inconsistencies. We are learning, we are showing a lot of promising signs. We are close but not quite there yet. More push from the middle of the DL is something to look for in the off season. The reason fans are so disappointed with the defense right now is they had too high of expectations for such a young unit.
Put me in that camp. Got way caught up in the hype, haha.warden":2sg10b01 said:The reason fans are so disappointed with the defense right now is they had too high of expectations for such a young unit.

Yeah, gotta say, the Bears offensive line was horribly patched, and there was no weapons outside of Marshall, Cutler, and Forte.
If we had a semblance of a red zone defense then we look a lot better on the scoreboard.
pehawk":2mel51yg said:Thing is, the Bears didn't even TRY to maximize anyone other than Marshall.
