" We welcome and -- market he's brought to you by emotional words of Barrington CE YA they have more than 75000. Unique visitors each month that motor works dot com and by Sullivan's steakhouse great food great cocktails. Great value LO -- as laid out where no well -- you know I'm doing just great thanks as always it's Tuesday's so. They're -- us your thoughts. You know I think I said a few times last week I'm not personally big on style points. I I think can't they won by a late field Goler struggled all day long I'd be overly concerned about that but. I have no problem -- what happens Sunday that they did what they had to do I would like to have seen -- be a little crisper on offense I'd like to see the offensive line played better. I hate the fact that everybody's acting like the defense had some big tremendous turnaround and got the five takeaways and everything. I think there should be a rule that you don't get ten takeaways against the Browns you're not trying self. The it was what it was an. And it's a good thing in their foreign three. I think what people wanna be careful about -- don't try and project anything you saw this past Sunday. I'm -- what you think might happen this Sunday when a real NFL team comes out."

" I think the only thing nicely you know I'd I grid style points you know in the BCS you know trying to -- and also want somebody. A good thing -- disappointed in me is and that kinda day. -- your quarterback takes a beating again -- that's something to disturb me the rest of it I agree I mean I you know -- whatever. Red zone problems I give it we've we've been dealing with that but just affected Cutler got a beating again."

" Well it's a big problem Terry and then again this -- when you look at games like Arizona we gotta die no -- no venom Bertrand Berry a Karlos Dansby a worry about. -- I'm hard pressed to see that the Bears have an answer for that. I won't tell you this LA and I started notice it more and more as the game wore on Sunday. -- got to get rid of that football I mean the other there's a few shut out now I don't know if there's some start and go on in his head where. Okay I've got eleven picks it's too many I gotta do something about this I don't wanna make a mistake I don't wanna make a silly throw. The end into the holding onto the ball split second too long because I'll tell you what. The routes they were run and on Sunday if somebody wasn't open into two and a half seconds they weren't get open because they weren't really run hit -- down the field. They and they were giving him multiple choices so. I think Sunday it was a combination of again the offensive line is not doing a very good job. Cleveland is a terrible football team but they do have a couple guys who can pressure the passer Shaun Rogers may be the best defensive lineman in the AFC right now. You know Cameron Wimbley who is pretty good football player. You know they've got some guys who can do some things. But -- candidate -- actually read it's it's it's an ongoing concern for this football team. Maybe you do. It was our mistake though assuming that it was gonna get better Sunday because other than just beaten and it was the same guys and then and the substance -- is."

" I wonder if the Bears wide receivers. Can feel the game well enough and it seems to me that there -- times were Cutler is looking to a hot. We're looking to an area where he's just used to expecting people to beat. And are not there and I and I knew that they you've got Johnny -- trying to learn one position Devin Hester who finally. Looks like he can understand his position. An Earl Bennett I don't know of after a full year of trying to understand the playbook if he really gets signaling the playbook as one think. Knowing how many strides before to get in an -- break is another thing I. I don't know that they feel it I don't know that that that little -- NFL level sort of sand lot aspect of it of being at the line of scrimmage and saying. You know just what with a wink with a glance with the you'd change your split or YouTube kid jumping on -- slant here. It doesn't feel to me like that they -- yet."

" Well I can tell you Dan and absolutely is now -- Devin Hester he doesn't feel that he's not a wide receiver they're trying to make him some committees that. He and and we're watching the game Sunday in the guys they sit next to in the press found some not gonna name names can only get them in trouble with the heat and that's what. We're just kind of giggling with each other because there was that three specific plays that come to mind right now. One in the first quarter when the second -- The third quarter where we're watching Cutler try and give the little hand signal where the little now."

" Love the masters and after especially throws him. --"

" That he was that you don't get this he throws -- shrug his shoulders he doesn't he doesn't understand what's happening. Q what did good did this give up because it's been said by some bad. -- well he doesn't know where the hot reads are in my and I are I think our stance and just are you kidding me of course he does -- you look at the guys were really good and we're here's a shock for you. Peyton Manning's quarterback ratings like a 170 when being blitzed. And then it's followed by Aaron Rodgers -- would have Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers having -- both quarterbacks is affected their receivers have. All been around -- all know what failed to do and when to do it in my put Debbie don't blame Jake public don't -- he doesn't know where that reads are I don't believe that first set it."

" I cannot count the times and were only what three home him. Snorkel tube -- but. That we've set up there and watch Cutler trying to make exactly death heaven where."

" It you know the little pat on the -- a little pamphlet clues none none of them had."

" And and at least half a dozen times where he said okay I guess that's where I gotta go. He'll throw the ball where they were supposed to be right and it looks like there was a complete breakdown and and he what is Cutler Dillon. It's because he got the read and the receiver didn't so I'm not saying -- as the best out of my league but I can guarantee he understands that he gets that he does not get any help that there are what --"

" To me is the crux of the the conflict here. On the one hand you have Ron Turner stage is bigger biting his his tongue in and saying well maybe we'll have to strip this down and simplify it. In on the other hand you say look you got one real asset on offense. Why not use I think that the worst possible thing they can do. Would be needed to -- simplify the offense and go with the old Kyle Orton offense. Because it could eat it flies in the face of logic when you have one guy that they can feel the game that can -- Where he's supposed to go with the ball given enough time yet. Everything he's trying to do to -- he's -- training Border Collie she's out there beat her say that from the wrong drug issues that would actually -- dog Emily Golden Retriever his underwear. Where where he's going -- he can't maximize what he's doing so what do you do do you make it simpler so the dumb guys that making mistakes. Or do you keep doing what you're doing and just trust the media hit on one here and there."

" I'm given down a pass on that one didn't realize that I am Golden's and I think the smartest I'm glad -- three. I agree with you because they've been over bred a I is in office on the Cubs -- he. Well I actually the Peyton as a football fans he has to be an Angel catches a fan of -- Look it's better for the Cubs are in. Not. A weaker than others I'm just give them that I know -- haven't found what this but but -- get back to them I think we are in complete agreement on this. Would be inexcusable. At this point to say the answer is to simplify something for the dumbed down you -- you one more person. Yeah actually dared to make the excuse to death."

" are still just learning to hit the flute for a few could -- they've been trying to make more wide receiver. Earl Bennett you know is is the leading receiver in the history of the."

" SEC he's in the middle of the second season you're -- get a he's never gonna get it no matter how much you've dumbed down and again I don't think that's the problem."

" And as far as Johnny Mac's now he probably doesn't get it all yet but but but. He doesn't need to because the most you can hope to get out of him."

" It is the occasional deep ball when he beat somebody with a speed or when teams actually have to take Hester and -- and whoever else Greg -- seriously. And so he's gonna finals in the zone so. I can't imagine that the answer to their problems right now is simplifying things and that's just wouldn't make any sense at all if that they're tough club when you as a receiver. To know what the quarterback is doing what he's signaling do you when you see pressure coming because they think he can read it I think he sees it isn't -- told -- what we're talking about a year well -- He having done that I wanna be careful -- I it doesn't appear to be. But the problem is that it's not about they can't give an overt signal or the defense is gonna figure it out to right and so what's really happening. If you're trying to hit it kinda gets them I can think to say do you see what I see."

" And that's where it's breaking down because Cutler is sitting at. And Hester isn't."

" And and and as far as other guys you know it hasn't been as obvious to me with other guys that business there was literally."

" A play in the third quarter so quickly where Cutler was just very subtly trying to do a little finger -- and they hit."

" And Hester was out he started to come back again and then Cutler told him that it is handled her pastor started to go -- they just stopped and -- and --"

" This is not that I thought I'm not really seem that does not compete you don't go back to watch the tape guys if there I promise I thought I also think if he's re calibrated and what."

" Open means. And it's been too many times where he -- well you know Devean is not the they've thrown up their let him go get a guy he's he's a run under a guy. And and -- there's been a couple nice catch is made here they're turning knocks isn't gonna go fight for the ball ripping away from 100 yard day in and Earl Bennett isn't going to go we saw that on the pass that he threw into triple coverage against the bagels. That was one on which he totally bad Emma -- make a play and help. Even Greg Olsen is supposed favorite target is that the ball knocked out of his hands by defensive backs will win their specific play calls to let. After 651 round draft pick tight in golf and make a play. Wait so naturally. Jay Cutler in his head in that split second decision might not be conscious but I think. Unfortunately. He's had a really redefine what it means what a Bears receiver is open or not."

" It's not the only guy on the roster who kind of fits the definition of potentially being the go up and get a guy. Is -- should do and and and he apparently isn't good enough to dress something -- by the way I don't disagree with that. But what's your left -- is a bunch of smallish. Couple of them very fast I'm not sure how you would describe ever a better because he doesn't have great speed he had never great society say -- yeah. If nothing about football player but look for what we're talking about here. You know Cutler doesn't have that. I -- yet and clearly. That's the kind of Brandon Marshall in in Denver was the best of all worlds because not only was he dead guy he also had freakish athletic ability and speed to go with it. Not not saying obviously not every team has a Brandon Marshall. Let me did you just watching that game left I think you see the things that Marcus Colston can do on the football field -- what -- to -- taken up 77 out of Australia. My my ass is beginning to get -- again glove but then Invesco Field. Other route which is Devery Henderson who had been a first round some thought a bust. And look at the catch that he made down with a ten yard line on the sideline that they had to replay to get it right. And then even Michael Jenkins who was a first round bust with the Falcons in his six year who drafts more than he catches you up to the plate she makes captain -- toes on the sideline if these guys that Henderson so much but the Colston. Marshal Michael Jenkins they fit the definition. Of what. You'd really like to give Jay Cutler which is a guy who you can throw into coverage occasionally and still have a good hopefully -- guys can -- make a play for."

" Yeah I don't disagree with you about when I I think -- what you're seeing what I think we all kind of feel is that you know for whatever reason. You know it it is just some of this is on -- as well it please don't believe this shows absolving him of all the blame -- not. And I think some of those decisions have been awful but I just I mean. I mean we don't have time to get into the gut -- question about how often do -- times you're gonna get. Beaten down like he's been beaten down before you start just -- you look like David Carr playing quarterback yeah. I don't even Carson Palmer who I think the first year back was good afternoon."

" I don't think that's an issue yet I think -- tough I think he's taken his pounding out there. And I think he's prepared to go out take more I think he knows I'm seeing -- sign him that I think can I would like to do that to be the leader he wants to be. What I did also see though for the first time and and then. This you know -- is. That's what I'm seeing Arnold everybody saw that I hate to start reading body language but about but I did see. -- at least three or four occasions. Where it was either three or out there were getting ready to punt. Where he seemed to be losing interest coming off the field standing on the sideline. And that's a little bit of that that that attitude that we heard he might have that the you don't wanna see. Again not a lot of that I hope I'm wrong he did take the pounding he was tough he got back up but of that starts to creep into it. That to me is even more disturbing to me and gunshot."

" He's in a very difficult situation because he's being asked he came in here with this idea well he better be good citizen you better not be divisive teammate. So he -- he's. He would be perfectly justified in in just go on scorched earth and his teammates right now because they can't protect him and they don't seem to wanna be able to make a play to help them. They can't do that so he might have to -- express himself through through some of that body language half second of all they're saying. -- eight -- don't throw interceptions. -- who got -- the bully gets booed for throwing the ball away he gets booed for throwing interceptions. If there's people chasing him all over the place original what the hell is this guy's supposed to do what's gonna other than the impossible. What's gonna make anybody happy."

" One and there's one more piece that we haven't talked about it all and I. He can go -- that should be unfair. Don't you think somewhere in the back in his mind in the last week or two if not sooner. He has had to stop and ask himself my -- the Broncos are six and one and even Brandon marshall's happy what the hell that I do."

" A -- look at the future of what he left. -- and listen to the conversation we're having in our concerns about the future of his present situation that the."

" I don't ya know it doesn't. We -- make a regular one and only being a way it's not unreasonable we come back from break covers what I did I -- I've said this inability it goes to what you just said. It -- should know come back into it but I I I think it's very possible that they refuse extended through 33 I don't know with a -- look like in two weeks another way he's getting better. But it's very possible. That you'll never see a playoff game and a Bears uniform we'll come back and double talk about that right here in Chicago for Israel SIX SEVENTY The Score."

" It's."

" Bob Hope is all you heard your NFL question and maybe their Bears questions maybe there. Denver question. Maybe there whatever but he hub is all yours and I -- to a great and I'm you know hub when I look at that. The massive amount of work best we don't this team and I think it's very possible. It's very possible in the next five years or so the Bears might not see a playoff game."

" Well I had certainly possible. I think in today's NFL. Other than any team that has a relationship with -- Eric Mangini -- predict more than a year ago. Is really tough IE it's it's possible the flip side of that is that they could be eleven and twelve win team again next year. You know I I look at that offensive line and I am I'm not thrilled. With what I'm seeing from Chris Williams that he is still. A big body. With a decent -- learning to play the position. You know beaten and is young enough I think all may have a few more years I can't imagine that Orlando Pace is back next year. But you're talking about get one or two offensive lineman who could make -- panic difference. You know maybe -- acts. Develop some not right not Greg Olsen yet. Earl Bennett gets full better see you really need to go out and find one. You know really top notch receiver that makes to the rest of the group better. I don't know what you've got Matt Forte to be honest with you that that may be my biggest concern -- Fred -- hit do running back. And defensively. You know I think we talked about this last week as much as I'm a little frustrated. I do believe I've talked to enough people around -- to tell me Rod Marinelli really is that good he apparently is just an outstanding defensive line coach and so. It may be and unrealistic of us to assume that in just seven games he's gonna take these unfinished products like Marcus Harrison and and Mark Anderson Gaines Adams who he just got. Jarron Gilbert -- we haven't even seen yet you know then there could still be some promise on the defensive line man's -- got a few years left in them peanut Tillman missed -- little pro bowler."

" Note to the free safety so they could go either way you know like I could see them get this thing turned in the year certainly too. I had quite -- your crystal balls are better remind you it'd be interesting theory about the tackles. Yesterday. -- thought -- we don't really really thought the matter how do you know that's about the show but it just an interesting my thought is that we know that when Kevin Shaffer was signed. That he was described as had a solid veteran swing tackle them. At some point it when you say okay wind when you signed -- you thought he was a solid veteran. And eventually -- you were on the street right now you know somebody would probably go pick him up to somebody gets hurt -- of this Beckham plays proving play at a couple different teams now. Would you consider benching Orlando Pace. And maybe moving Williams back back let his natural -- where you -- he'd be more comfortable. Only could you reshuffle other position -- yeah it is it possible Orlando Pace and couldn't. I don't know and I'm I'm I'm crazy with this stuff of finding the right positions for these guys because could guards played tackler titles play guard I don't know but I'm open to anything."

" Well we we know that left tackle is Orlando's pick Orlando Pace and positions so he's either gonna play that for -- or he's not gonna play and benching him. That'd that'd be pretty germanic you know he and I am not sure. How much coming back from that there is they're dramatically bad -- and I'm not just let me answer the question I'm thinking it through as a as is as we -- I I I don't see anything I never really believe that Chris Williams was going to be a great left tackle I'm not so sure his future isn't on the right side he you know you say. His more natural side he played on the left side in college but. I'm not sure how much better you know we do know that Franco on the -- started wanna say six or seven games at tackle last year in Carolina. And so. And we also know that neither Huard Kevin -- should play the left side so you know maybe the option is to give Williams a shot on the left side and then start. Schaefer Schaefer probably would be fine on the right side that the problem that you don't have an answer on the left side and and that really is the key position and then and now -- to."

" Trying to think that was -- yeah I don't wanna I don't but I don't do anything panicky and I know that. Fans tend to think of actual teams like fantasy teams and they're not they are real people and these decisions that are made do. Have locker room ramifications. And end financial ramifications cap ramifications. It did there's impact. -- roster bonuses or playing time bonuses number of starts and all that that it if it's not. Just names on the board so I know we can't do a lot of this but when it's this bad. And if the Bears are who wanna be what Lovie says he thinks they can beat. You're getting close reporting your season words it's."

" Time to train so well he you know you're absolutely right in and I think the reason it makes sense having this conversation right now. His because this Sunday is when you're gonna find out if you know it is easy for us to forget their four and three he it is always -- Yet here you're actually in really good shape if you wanna be a playoff contender a wildcard contender at four and three now forget. You know what you did against a Cleveland team that isn't competitive you're gonna find out this Sunday the Arizona Cardinals are the defending NFC you know champs. Whether they were that impressive getting there and out there were a couple plays away from winning a Super Bowl now so far this year they've been a complete -- day other -- they looked. Really fantastic a week ago Sunday night in New York against the Giants and then just absolutely messed the bed and homeland Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. But relative to this question of the tackles and I just did -- the roll call a few minutes ago. -- period and Darnell Dockett Karlos Dansby and even major Wilson -- blitz him from the safety spot they're gonna they're a pressure. Orlando Pace pretty good this Sunday and so if if if it happens. Benefits a massive Cutler takes a beating if you lose a football game look ugly then I don't think it's panic time I think it's time to try something. Because you're still for you still 500 the seasons half over."

" I wanna pursue the Cardinals and a second or do that particular headlines first and compacted our commitment of formal. Other thing I want to ask you about the Cardinals since we really don't get much chance to talk about next week's opponent I wanna take this time to do that okay. I had just hours but you buy IBM -- your resume above are occasionally just -- the Cardinals and emotionally -- the -- at home how the hell. Does it annoy and grumbling got hurt and he's been nursing an ankle nursing there's -- nursing and how how the hell. Does a guy who's been around as long as Kurt Warner. Throw five interceptions. And call moved the ball a fumble how does that happen -- I don't I know weird things happen in the NFL. But how does that happen I didn't see any of the games on the -- guide I'm asking you what the hell went on."

" and I wish I had a good answer I will tell you the Julius Peppers was in his face all day long and that. That can be a little intimidating. The Panthers actually. I bad in the secondary defied fixes that's always going to be as much on the offense in the quarterback is it is on the defense end up. That's that's the great mystery this team you know Larry FitzGerald only has 100 yard receiving game this season so far. And then he's been healthy so yeah -- has been banged up Steve Breaston. Was banged up early but he's come on the last hopefully some played fairly well. I look at Beanie Wells at times and expect him to be the next great running back in the NFL. And yet somehow this Arizona team is still 31 in the league in rushing as they seemed to be. Every year all year long -- and then you turn it around on the defense and and they got players that. Every level I mean that there really talented and so. I'm I'm shocked that they come in here foreign three just like the Bears and I have to be honest up until last Saturday are last Friday I was gonna make the Bears upon in my lock of the week again for the through Bob but not enough not to someday I. I think that the Bears can win this game mean it is how it well if the opera anyhow if the Cardinals complain as badly. This Sunday in Soldier Field as they did homeland Sunday against the Panthers. They're they're no better than the Bears now there's one little disturbing trend they are three you know on the road for some reason they've played much better on the road this year. Than they have at home. But you know -- idea and I'm not trying to beat the Bears up but but when you do the personnel matchups when you look at the Cardinals people and and who they match up with any other side against the Bears it's fair to say how because it doesn't look like a winnable game yeah I."

" Hope I'm wrong but I just don't see it I don't know how there even say F three point favorite hole means that there. Getting an advantage just for being at home and is otherwise even good I noticed reports I don't know but really. I I."

" I cannot envision okay you don't like the Bears on Sundays -- you saying to not only does he not a chance I. The only reason I'm given the chance is because I didn't think the Cardinals to lose last Sunday but I think again. It is right relative to the match ups here -- just did this did there's no match up by confined that favors the Bears look into the."

" Bears do. I think that's the last what you know what they do what they do we -- coordinating against the Bears office doing got to take this arrogant as we know that Greg Olsen has been bracket it here in their bit. Really the there what do they do."

" Well I a night I said it last week in -- try didn't didn't really get it done forte is numbers were okay. They've got to run the football they've got to win the physical battle they've got to prove that they can dominate the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball offensive and defensive line. And and that's why that conversation about Payson about the offensive line is so relevant interesting because -- minute this is -- to to stay a contender. They come out of this five and three with a well that is the Cardinals there are legitimate playoff contender whether we believe him and out. They lose this game at home go to foreign foreign you look at the best -- could you probably can stop thinking about the playoffs and self. To me the only the only thing they have potentially to work and their favorite. They've got to get physical they've got to be more physical -- the Arizona Cardinals they've got to control the ball for 3435. Minutes to keep. All those offensive weapons off the football field. And they can that cannot be a disaster in the red zone like they were less trumpet. A key figure in the so Larry FitzGerald has won and won only 100 yard receiving game don't you kind of think -- Sunday might be the second one well the odds favor him yes I. I think you can say again as they put. We about matchups that don't favor I don't like that would match up -- makes me very nervous I'm not sure if you know I don't know with the Bears would do all that well if they doubled up on Steve Breaston let alone taking away you know Larry FitzGerald and you know so again the Cardinals have enough weapons as Gary and I am assuming -- goes to self. If they've got all three receivers anywhere near healthy it's really hard to imagine just killed -- have a Big Blue was Julius Peppers beating and how. While Mike -- would be yeah. It'll be -- all they can't let you make me an ego -- is still left tackle the Arizona Cardinals send he is the young man who actually has made quite a career for himself as he left here. That's been very productive years with the position for the Buffalo Bills complain for the Cardinals for the last couple years. And and playing real well for the most by no I haven't really studied that tape I'm not even suggesting. That'd -- Gandy who was so bad. As much as Julius Peppers is on fire he's been playing really well lately but that was the match up there really cause one problems. All right -- as we appreciate it we will visit would you tomorrow amend a very big kids have attitude tomorrow will will have fun that's okay you gotta write thank you pub brawl."
