9 Points from Preseason week 3 vs. Tennessee

1. Seems the game would have been different if CJ2K were in uniform.

2. D-Line is working well together, getting pressure on the QB.  Izzy Idonije seems to be flying under the radar.  Nice to see inside pressure.

3. Major Wright in another out of control move flying past a runner giving up another touchdown.  Is that something that is fixable?

4. Wow, Matt Forte looks good running between the tackles, catching passes, running outside, etc.  This is going to be his year.

5. O-Line.  Lance Louis as a lead blocker is a lot of beef coming at you.  Carimi holding his own.  For what it is worth, they have kept resolute on maintaining the same consistent line and so far appears to be paying off, running game is clicking and Jay Cutler is alive and upright.

6. Lovie Smith with another lost challenge.  Par for the course, but at least he has not had any egregious time management decisions - yet.  We will see when the real games start.

7. Roy Williams just dropped another pass.  Johnny Knox is not much better and Devin Hester shows what we always knew that he really can't catch under pressure.  Earl Bennett is solid as ever, I think he will lead all Bears WR when the season is over.  And Roy Williams just dropped another pass.

8. Special Teams.  What the heck?!?!?!?  Blocked punt, punter catches the ball and runs for a first down?!?!?!  Coverage stinks, returns are nothing special and worst of all Robbie Gould is shaky and he needs to be solid.

9. But I still feel good about this season, don't know why I just do.
