Now go back and play with your barbies, you inbred.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So basically your saying that a qb is only as good as the amount of hits he takes? And you say I&#039;m the ignorant one. I didn&#039;t question Cutlers toughness. He gets hit all day and gets injured, he had to sit out like the rest of them, and when he&#039;s taking a beating w/o getting injured he has to deal like the rest of them. Maybe you should re-read what I typed for you and when you feel like you have something intelligent to say get back at me. Idiot.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[zibikbeer,

Allow me to set you free from your IGNORANCE....the issue of &quot;toughness&quot; is a function of how many times a quarterback is HIT/SACKED and continues to play effectively (making it to the NFC Conference Championship game behind the worst pass-blocking line in the league is considered &quot;effective&quot; by most rational people):

Stafford is FRANGIBLE.....Romo is FRAGILE....Brady is a metrosexual wimp who has played behind a great offensive line most of his career......Manning ducks/dives/runs out of bounds and avoids hits although he has had good protection...Brees can&#039;t take a pounding....nor can Vick.....neither can Ryan......

Who has been sacked the most in the League the past two years? Who has been HIT the most the past two years?

Who takes a licking and keeps on ticking?: Big Ben, Cutler and in the old days, the GOAT: Elway.....

 Now, go back and play with your Legos!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To ursushorribilis:

Bradys injury was legit and required surgery. The amount of hits has nothing to do with an injury. Players do not just choose to sit out. Ditto for Palmer. I&#039;m pretty sure Brady would have liked to try and repeat what they did the year before(except losing in the SB). Stafford is always injured and Romo sucks. The cowboys did better w/o him. Think next time before you make yourself sound like an ass, and use another example. I was born in chi town so naturally I respect the bears, but I am not a fan and I&#039;ll be the first to tell you Cutler is not a wuss. I had a torn mcl and had surgery and the pain was unbearable. Annnnddd dino2997 is right LOL]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Bears did &quot;fairly well&quot;....hmmm....let&#039;s see...if playing in the NFC Conference Championship game is &quot;fair&quot;....how did Ryan, Brees, McNaab, Eli, Vick, etc. do? Terrible?

Tsk...tsk...anti-Bear Bias Bubbling.......


P.S. Polegojim: If you had played Bears&#039; quarterback in the Giants game, you&#039;d be crying out for your MAMA!

Cutler is the second toughest quarterback in the league (Big Ben #1)....Stafford and Romo were seldom hit and took the year off.....so did Brady, Palmer, et. al. and they all were hit a lot less than Cutler.....
Now, go play with your Legos....]]></description>

Sorry, but I respect da Bears WAY too much to watch another season of Baby Jay&#039;s Sideline Sulking Routine while licking his self-imposed wounds.

Iron Mike would have just slapped him silly---

Wow, still whining about the correct call? No wonder the Lions still suck. The Bears dominated that game, and should have never let it come down to the last play anyways. Even Calvin Johnson himself said it was the correct call.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Across the board, a change in RB&#039;s tend to have the quickest impact on the team.  Yes, there are any number of exceptions but, I&#039;m talking in general terms.

RB&#039;s also take a constant beating, whether they are directly involved in the play or not.  Their peak years are not long.

While the Bears have several holes that need immediate attention, if a solid RB is available, it would be wise to take him and develope him.

No man does it alone.  The Bears best years always had good RB tandems.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think you need to understand the difference between need and want. A backup RB is a need? Really? 



Also, the Bears did have a 1000-yard receiver in Johnny Knox who had 1064 yards if you include the playoffs. This, like RB is a want, not a need. The Bears could become a dangerous offense if they can improve their line. Knox is going to be in his 3rd year and is already an excellent deep threat. Bennett is a 3rd down chain-mover while Hester has been used a lot less on offense lately, and his current role suits him well.

Oh, and Greg Olsen is a beastttt]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wait a second. Forte is 25 years old, has only played 3 seasons, has had at least 1400 total yards each year, has only handled just over 300 touches each of the past two seasons, has been either first or second on the team in receptions each year, experienced no lack of health in 2010... and you&#039;re suggesting Chicago needs to find a long-term replacement at RB?

Maybe the St Louis Rams need to begin grooming Sam Bradford&#039;s eventual replacement at QB...]]></description>
