    Urlacher over Butkus?

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:


    i know he's a HOFer but butkus only played 119 games vs brians 182 + playoffs. In Butkus' 9 years, only 1 Bears team finshed above .500
  • Nobody caused mayhem on the field like Butkus. It was different game when he played. I realize Ray Lewis and LT were the best of their generation, but NOBODY caused mayhem like Butkus.

    Butkus would smile, as he put his hand down your throat, and ripped out your spleen.

    I dont buy that arguement, Sandy Koufax retired at 30. Was there ever a more dominant pitcher?

    Urlacher over Butkus?
    Not in my book.

  • Walter Payton played 10 years? 12 years?
    Walter Payton retired as the all-time leading rusher in the NFL.
    Walter Payton won a Superbowl.

    Gale Sayers was a better running back.
    Sayers played 68 games.

    very true.

    well, i think we can agree that brian was the second most dominant LB in the last decade and deserves to be a HOFer. His skills are obviously diminished but the defense won't be the same without their captain. in fact, the team is pretty much f&cked: 7-15 without Urlacher playing.

    Urlacher is a shell of his former self. I think we are all going to mildy surprised at how much the Bears will move on these last 4 games without Urlacher. They will be fine without Urlacher.

    At least I hope so!!!

    Injuries are really starting to pile up. Doesn't sound like Jennings is going to play this week....apparently he was still in a sling yesterday.

    Hopefully things pick up for the offense when Jeffrey gets back....having 2 threats at WR with him and Marshall should open things up.

    Marshall has been great, but theyre not getting big plays. I think since the line showed some promise protecting Cutler last week,you'll see them open it up a little this week with some deep throws.

    Not sure. I read that there's a good chance he can play. He was limited in practice the end of last week so hopefully that's a good sign for this week.

    i'm ok with the dink and dunk down with the run mixed in. controls the ball and clock.

    plus, Marshall and all the recievers seem to struggle with catching the deep pass, unless it is post up by marshal

    He has already missed 2 games, right? Vikings and Seahawks games. By the time Sunday rolls around, it will have been 3 weeks already since the injury.

    forte in the slot was effective last week with his td catch...keep that shit going.
    or, you can split out forte and hand off to bush- a nice decoy play
