What a couple of bumbling teams!

Vikes were able to win the game 3 separate times. Only problem was #40 blew the 1st 2.

Lion fan says thank you to the Vikings.

Not a Bear's fan, but why did they attempt the field goal on second down?  It was second and seven from the Minnesota 29.  Why not run the ball to try to get some extra yards, then kick it on third down as opposed to a 47 yarder?

No clue, made no sense.

I think the NFC Central has been a case study for pathetic coaching this year.

I know not many on here saw it live, but that was one of the worst official's mess up's ever in SNF game. Can't happen.

It is also Exhibit A in the case against expanding to an 18 game schedule. Injuries (to admittedly flawed team) have turned what was an extremely strong and competitive division a month or so ago, into an absolute suckfest.

Hate to say it, but I'm beginning to see why Trestman was an OC for so long without getting an NFL head coaching gig.

Accurate - The Buccaneers have also been the victim of horrible coaching.

Point is there is no NFC Central.  Does not exist.

Obviously I was talking about the NFC North - without thinking, I just used BB divisions rather than football.

I think everyone else knew that. But I really appreciate the correction  ::)

According to one blowhard it is the NFC Norris division.

Curious that at the end of regulation Trestman opted for the 66yd FG from Gould.  And while I am a big Gould fan, there is no way he makes that, ever.  The Bears have 2 of the better jump ball WRs in the NFL, isn't a hail mary a much better option?

Concerning that Trestman has made two crucial decisions that have led to two key Bears losses (starting Cutler against Detroit, and yesterday's mind blowing decision). Not to say that this is a solid playoff caliber team (it isn't), but bad head coaching decisions like those are unacceptable.

I thought the same as you.  But then when Gould barely missed it (it was only a yard or two short), maybe they figured the long field goal was a greater possibility.

Actually, he can make that field goal. He missed a 47 harder in the game, but under the right conditions (and I don't mean a gale force wind) he is capable of making a 67 harder.

If the Saints go to Philly on Wild Card weekend, they're in trouble.
