Bears game...

[Glenn Quagmire]

I'm sure others saw this as well. Hilarious ending. Falcons have a big lead, Elam can't make a chippy to ice it, then the Falcons predictably get soft on D when the game is almost over and they give up the go ahead TD. At this point I'm laughing because Atlanta screws themselves out of an easy win.

Not so fast... with just :11 on the clock, Chicago does the BRILLIANT squib kick that gives Atlanta the ball around midfield. :06 to go, all they have to do is play defense for ONE play, but again, the defense goes into a prevent mode and they give up a huge completion to set up Elam for the game winner. :mj07:

I had Atlanta +3, so the end of the game didn't affect the spread for me. I just loved seeing both coaches and teams crap their pants because of their stupidity.

Exactly. How many times do you see conservative playcalling come back to bite them in the ass. If you have a 1 point lead with :11 to go and you're kicking the ball off, there's no excuse to lose the game.

Just started a thread about the same topic, just plain stupid... :mj07:

Bears should have done much more scoring. Orton really holding his own out there right now. At least two perfectly placed balls for wide outs to go and get and these guys have half inch verticals on d-backs smaller and shorter.

Falcons dominated that game. They deserved to win.

Falcons dominated that game. They deserved to win.

ended up with a lot of field goals as they "dominated", getting in the end zone much later

left the Bears in the game

As Clint said, "deserve's got nothing to do with it"

Replacing the 4 horsemen with the one hoseman? BOLD.

That hosemen has more gumption in his pinkie than Stuhldreher, Crowley, Miller and Layden combined. 2-0 (non-posted) since the avatar change.
