       Well the Bears had themselves a rough offensive day. It wasn't
       much better on the defensive side. Grossman had himself a very
       rough day. The 2nd year man is still having a hard time with the
       offense. Grossman was 14-26 for 248 yds 1 touchdown and 3
       interecptions. He was having a hard time finding any of his
       teammates. He was rushing his throws and just throwing it up for
       anyone.  It didn't help that his o-line wasn't helping him. He
       was sacked 5 times. At least he was getting help from the
       running game. Anthony Thomas waa having a heck of a game. He had
       to carry the load due to Jones being out of the game due to
       injury. Thomas had 10 attempts for 114 yds and 1 touchdown. He
       even had 1 catch for 7 yards and a touchdown. Thomas had the
       best game of the season so far, with him and Thomas splitting
       the load he has had a hard time rushing. But he is trying to
       show he can do it himself. He did a good job of showing the team
       he can carry the load. Grossman's receivers didn't do much to
       help him out very much. Booker only had 1 catch for 13 yards,
       Terrell had 3 receptions for 56 yards. Luckily he had one guy
       that stepped up and helped out. Cage had a hell of a game. He
       made a case for being the number one guy. He had 7 receptions
       for 135 yards. Mike Brown stepped up as one of the defensive
       leaders he had a great game. He lead the team in tackles with 7
       today. Azumah and Tillman helped out with 5 and 4 tackles each.
       Tillman who got hurt during the game continued to play with an
       injury and was still playing well. Rookie Tommie Harris had a
       pretty good game as well. He had 3 tackles and 1 sack. He wasn't
       the only one to get to the quarterback today. Brown, Robinson,
       and Harriott we're able to sack Culpepper today. Even though
       they were able to sack Culpepper 4 times and get an
       interecption, but they gave up 449 yards. Most of that came from
       the passing game. The Bears gave up 373 yards passing. They had
       no way of stopping Moss today. He did whatever he wanted and got
       away with it today. They were able to slow their run game, they
       only gave up 76 yards through the ground. Even though they had a
       bad defensive game, they almost came back to win it. They were
       held scoreless in the 1st half. But they came back from the half
       on fire. They scored 17 unanswered points and almost came back
       to win the game. It was real close but Grossman threw a very
       costly pick that sealed the game for them. It was a close game
       they could of won. Next game they have will be a tough game.
       They will playing against the high scoring Eagles.
