You all notice how when Cutler shows he's willing to tuck it down and run...the pressure lets up a bit?

Awesome win, I was very impressed by how we played. We bottled up Adrian Peterson, smacked Favre in the mouth a couple times, and offense moved the ball. Cutler's 1 INT was 100% on him but the early one Knox should have caught.
3rd down efficiency = Wins.
6-3

Also..they improve to 6-0 when they give up less than 100 yards rushing.

and giving up less than 100 yards is impressive enough against AP.

One thing that no one seems to be talking about is how Favre and several Vikings players clearly folded with 4 minutes and change left in the game.
Go back and watch the tape, it was amusing. Need two TDs, gotta go 99 yards...what play do they run? 5-8 yard pass, in the middle of the field, on every play until Favre's pick. No emergency. No stopping the clock. Just 40 yards in 2.5 minutes, on a defense that was willing to give you 10-12 yards on passes....then you throw a pick behind a receiver (who, granted, fell down), and look at the sideline? Hell, Favre might as well have waved good-bye to Chilly...and he would've done it w/ a smile on his face.

Good point...but...Pats...Jets...Pack away...Vikes away...Philly...shew...
imo, we SHOULD win Next week, and we SHOULD beat the Lions...which would put us at 8 wins...but beating two of the teams listed above will be difficult.
The important thing, is we are in a position now that few, few Bears fans (hell, football fans in general) thought we'd be in. We are LEADING the division after week 10, folks. Seven weeks left...NOW is the time to swell up and be big. NOW is the time, to Bear Down.

Percy Harvin is a play-maker...when healthy.
That's gonna be the thing that keeps him from being great. (no, not HOF great)

I think Percy and Bush compare soooo favorably. really, really good players, who struggle staying healthy...and are good for one really, really good play a game, when they actually play.
