Pen.Sport: My Bad News Bears Deliver Nothing but Bad News

Yo Pennies & Pens,

First off, Iā€™d like to say that the Chicago Bears are one of my many squads. ā€œRealā€ football fans claim you can only have one team but I think thatā€™s bullshit. I mean I wear clothes and shoes from different places, and I eat all different types of foodā€¦so why am I to limit myself to ONE team?! That makes no sense. So just so weā€™re clear my squads are as follows: Cincinnati Bengals, Chicago Bears, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and honorable mention to the Green Bay Packers.

Moving right along, this past Sunday, the Chicago Bears played the Houston Texans in what looked like some of the worst weather ever. I mean it rained the ENTIRE game. I felt for the players, coaching staffs, and fans who sat through that game because it mustā€™ve been awful. Pretty Penny was sitting in the crib but she feels your pain. (Just trying to lighten the situation, lol).

As far as the Bearsā€¦wellā€¦they played some great defense on Sunday. Thatā€™s about it. Their offense was a complete joke. Ugh, I feel for Brandon Marshall because dude is a monster and he had eight catches for 107 yards on Sunday. Sadly, it wasnā€™t enough to do anything and it certainly didnā€™t lead to a win. Jay Cutler ended the game early after stepping out with a concussion. Even before he got hurt, he wasnā€™t playing very well. He only completed 7 of 14 passes for 40 yards.

After Jay Cutler got hurt, Jason Campbell stepped in as QB and played the rest of the game. Honestly, I think Jason played very well even though it doesnā€™t show in the stats. Jason threw some great passes that couldā€™ve made some headway for the offense but his team wasnā€™t there with him. Both Forte and Davis had some seriously whack games, especially Forte who had only 39 yards.

In essence, it was a cold, rainy, sad day in Chi-Town that was made even colder with a Bears loss. This coming week wonā€™t result in an easier game as the Bears face the 49ers who out of nowhere are suddenly monsters and beasting everyone with a 6-2-1 record. With the game only a few days away, the Bears must get it together. Cutler will most likely stay out (he should rest for the playoffs, god willing they make it), so itā€™s up to Jason Campbell, Forte, Davis, and the Bears killer defense to givet the Bears their mojo back.

And there it is. de la Penā€¦All Pen Everything.Ā
