I think the "Bear Weather" mantra is more for the fans than anyone else. Don't think it has any effect on the players anymore, especially with the ones from considerably warmer climates, as some already mentioned.

I saw reports from the Weather Channel that were calling it a 90 percent chance there were going to be tornadoes on Sunday with this storm system. I've never seen anything quite like that before.

But it does beg this question: Why didn't they move the game to a 3:15 start?

I thought the same thing about making it a late game..But it worked to our advantage..Bears played much better after the break

well, I for one feel guilty for sitting at home on my couch (in Chicago) during the storm now.

Excellent chastisement. (I also didn't see anyone in the game thread or anywhere else make any comments about this being "bear weather" -- were you one of the drunk fans?)

Lightning is not something to joke around with.

Also for perspective here's the tornado damage path that hit washinton illinois.

That just means Cutler is screwed. Weather affects us more than anyone.

Who do you think this helps more?? Rodgers is just getting over a broken collarbone and hasn't faced any real contact in almost 2 months - I'm not sure how he can possibly be very sharp in weather like that - especially early on... If the Bears D can find the heart and passion that has been missing all year (a HUGE question), and just slow down Lacy somehow, I think the Bears have a really good chance to win this game. But they need to pounce early because the more the game progresses, the more comfortable and sharp Rodgers is going to get.....
