Jackass Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Just wondering how people see this game. Can either offense score any points? Will I be throwing up turkey and cranberry sauce? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sores Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Possibly the worst matchup of the year to make national TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Cuda Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 I will be glued as I am starting the Bears "D" and Thomas Jones. What a way to spend the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
51Butkus Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Total is 36. Krenzel and Henson. Sounds like UM OSU at the Big House. Run the ball, run the ball, run the ball. Take the under. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Furley Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Probably not the best matchup on Thanksgiving, but it will be fun seeing the Bears get another win on the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retrograde assault Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 As a Cowboy fan I don't expect too much but I'm pretty sure its gonna be a good time no matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the under. 572578[/snapback] I was thinking along these lines. The only thing that might change this is that sometimes on Thanksgiving, the defenses get tired and start giving up points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Swerski Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 While in Chicago for Thanksgiving, I'm going to force my uncle to turn on the Colts game. No point in watching the trainwreck that is the Bears when we can watch Peyton & Co. tear it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickdraw Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 The Bears' Defense can be entertaining. As bad as they were last week if Briggs picks off that Manning pass or they pick up the fumble they forced on a kick-off it might have at least been a game. Okay maybe not, but it was the Colts, this wasn't the first team Indy has done that to this season. I think the Bears could force three or four turnovers with a rookie QB and RB in for Dallas and maybe Chicago maybe scores once on defense too, so I figure the final at 10-6 DA' BEARS!!!

Indianapolis at Detroit 12:30 Chicago at Dallas 4:15 No worries I think the Bears defense bouces back and has a good game against the rook. . .

Guest dabears Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Da Bears will be in their spamshirts from 1941. That will be cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo mama Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 I'm really curious to see if Henson can build on his 6 for 6, 47 yard, 1 TD performance last week. The Bears DEF is comperable to the Ravens, so I'll be interested in seeing what he does. I'm also interested to see who he favors in the passing game. As a Whitten owner I'm worried about a potential drop off in his looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phenom Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 They should do some common sense programming here. If both teams have a losing record then they should get booted. Replace this game with the Ravens-Patriots or Eagles Giants.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msaint Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 You think either kicker (Edinger/Cundiff) is worth starting this week if it projects to be a battle of inept offenses, each getting no closer than each other's 30-yd line? You know, one of those 15-12 type games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispirons Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 i like the running back matchup of the brothers. should be at least a little interesting. i hate betting against the bears but i think the cowboys at home should win and cover. bet down the clip possibly.

msaint Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Agree with the Trash Can Report... I think this is a week the Cowboy defense flashes a glimpse of what it was supposed to be at the beginning of the season, and if you're hurtin' for defensive help, they might be a good one-week sub.

Bonehand Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 (edited) Possibly the worst matchup of the year to make national TV 572524[/snapback] The local sports radio was complaining about the same thing this AM. I can't believe these gripes. Want to make it more interesting? Start some guys that are playing. I've got Harrison, Pollard, K. Jones and J. Jones going tomorrow, all the food & beverages a guy could want, & good company to boot. I am not worried in the least about being bored by the matchups. As a matter of fact, I'm Thankful.

gilthorp Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 From the sounds of it, many of the Bears offensive players have given up on Krenzel and they'll be lucky if they score 10 points again tomorrow. I don't believe the Bears defense is good enough to stop the Cowboys and although it won't be a high scoring game, I see the score being in the range of Cowboys 20-23 and the Bears 3-10. The only way the Bears stay competitive is with a strong defensive and special team showing where they score 1 or 2 TD's. Without that, it won't be total domination by the Cowboys, but Dallas will be able to control the clock and pretty much control the entire game.

Is it the shut down corner they don't have or the safeties which are not even close to the level of Ed Reed ? Is it the 41 points they gave up last week ?
