Just like the Queens are better off without Ponder, the Bears are better off without Cutler.

Gotta be rough to have intimate relations with a groin tear, a'ina? Can anyone speak to this?

No cheesehead glasses on.  Cutler has all the physical tools.  But man, is something lacking up top in his head.  Lack of fundamentals also doesn't help him.  He is certainly fun to watch, because he's either making an incredible play from an athletic standpoint that may help them win a game, or he's making an absolutely atrocious decision that may help them lose a game.  There really isn't much of an in between with him.

Not at all. 2010 all over again.

My first thought was: a 2nd concussion in 4 weeks. He'll be out for a while. My second thought was: a 2nd concussion in 4 weeks. Could his career be over?

On a positive note for the Pack, after Boykin looked overwhelmed last week, he looked like he belonged today.

Cutler is light years ahead of McCown.  Give teams a week or two and they'll figure him out pretty quick.

In a game like Bears/Skins, with zero defense and up tempo, it's a ton easier for a semi-mobile QB who hasn't been game planned for to come in midway through the second and have success.

Rodgers, even with depleted receivers, is going to destroy the Bears in two weeks.

Dish, any chance Bears try and make a trade for a DT?

No, not a chance. DT won't turn around their D alone, no one is trading a good DT anyway.

Kudos to the Lions for finding a new way to lose after all of these years.   Get the ball back with 1:40 to play, play conservatively, don't get the second first down to keep moving down the field, have your rookie punter shank a punt, giving the Bengals the ball near midfield with 26 seconds left, two quick completions, 54 yard field goal, ballgame. 

Plus Stafford should have just taken the sack and forced Cincy to call their final timeout before getting the ball back.  Getting the ball back with 1:40 to go, getting a first down, not giving up a turnover, and still manage to allow the game winning FG in regulation.  It hurt watching that happen in real time, and my brain hurts just thinking about how ridiculously improbable that was.

I know it wouldn't fix the problems on D, just thought it would be a start.

Bears are done. Even without Cutler injury, that defense got really bad, really fast. Even if they got into the playoffs it isn't going to matter.

Packers seem to be the opposite, where their defense is looking legitimately good after stinking on ice the last couple years. They are really strong up front.

Twitter now seems to be saying that Finley "is going to be fine." Can't help but have some doubts though. That's a pretty scary injury. Losing him would be a massive loss.

And I am not sure what "going to be fine" really means.  Fine by next week?  Fine by the end of the season?  Fine to live a normal life outside of football like Nick Collins?

What a difference a year makes on the perceived importance of Finley.  Seemed many fans were ready to run him out of town last year.
