I wish. It looks like you and Milani might have found some of the test answers too. We are in a three way tie at 11-2 after the wild Bengals Chargers tilt.

Darn Vikings! If they make their simple extra point I have bingo.

Our only hope is Caleb rising like a Phoenix from the smoldering ashes that has been our offense the last month......

The Bears played well Sunday. If their defense keeps aggressively stopping the run they could give both the Vikings and Lions trouble at Soldier Field. Caleb is going to only get better. He did not have the luxury of watching HOF QBs on the bench for a few years. When he begins to read defenses at a higher level he will torch them. He is dangerous with his feet. Those 3 passes when it was 3rd and 19 were incredible. Instead of running the clock down the Bears should have used one more play to get closer. A bootleg or a short pass and then the timeout. The closer the kick the harder to block. This was a typical Bear-Packer game impacted by the rivalry and not the records. Do you recall the weekend Walter Payton died back years ago? The Bears wore the band in his honor. Favre drove the Packers down the field for what should have been a chip shot to win the game. Channeling the great #34 the Bears blocked Longwell's kick and won the game.
