       I agree, Carroll is a Superbowl winning head coach. He knows
       what it takes to win and prepare his team. I don't fault him at
       all. I have serious doubts about our D. I would've looked for
       Tuckers replacement this past off season..

       [B]And if the Bears didn't like what the Seahawks were doing
       they should have just stopped it.[/B]
       The trouble is they couldn't stop a pissant

       Glad to see the Bear Ace DC performing with his Ace players
       doing Ace plays. Btw, are the st coach and the DC
       related? Same results. horrid.

       With Peanut being exposed in that game does that say anything
       about our pass defense this year?

       It might but no way for us to know.  Where the Bears keeping it
       vanilla and the Seahawks going all out game planning to win?
       That is the problem with pre-season.  Different coaches and
       teams are trying to get different things out of it.
       Some teams want to put their players in bad situations to see
       how they handle it.  Other simply want to win so do not expose
       players.  I am not saying that was the case in this game but we
       simply can not know.  As fans we just want to win and look good
       doing it.  In pre-season some coaches would rather evaluate
       players then win.

       Game planning, coach hating or not, the Seahawks bat the Bears
       man on man all over the field.

       I understand vanilla, but how do you evaluate Tillman after that
       performance? That's a former Pro Bowl CB who was owned.

       He was also owned by Ramses Barden of the Giant's a few years
       ago in pre season and went on to make the pro bowl.
       Hard to tell what it means if anything.

       Tillman looked slow.  I hope he was saving it for when it
       counts.  Briggs looked old fat and slow.  That is NOT a good
       combo for our supposed best LB.

       I really can't comment on the first half as I haven't seen it
       yet (probably tonight).  But regardless of who was game-planning
       to win you have to watch the individual match ups especially on
       the line.  Defensively, I'll be watching the middle -
       specifically Paea and Ratliff, DJ Williams and our safeties.  If
       they were getting whipped as they were last season no game plan
       is going to make any difference.
       In regard to the recent cuts, Jordan Senn the special team LBer
       cut pretty much means that the highly touted FA LBer from FSU
       should make the team Christian Jones.
       I'd bet we bring in a safety from somewhere else before all is
       said and done.
