I didn’t even need to watch the second half to figure out where this game was headed. Another poor effort from the Bears will yield their fourth consecutive loss, this time at the hands of Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. I don’t know the final score because it’s not over yet, but it was “over” a long time ago, if you know what I mean.
I can’t remember the last time the Bears had a four-game losing streak. This has just been a brutal stretch for the team. Fortunately they’ll get a reprieve next week when they face the Rams (at least the Bears aren’t that bad), but then it’s going to be right back to losing against the Pack, Ravens, and Vikings again.
Blame Cutler, blame the o-line, blame the D, blame Lovie Smith, blame Ron Turner, blame Matt Forte… doesn’t matter. All of them are contributing to this godawful season. The best we can hope for as fans is that some changes are made and we come back strong in 2010.
(And yes, I know the Chargers were 4-8 last year before storming back to win their division. But the Bears play in the NFC North. There’s no way in hell that’s going to happen with them.)
