* In the first game, of the first 16 plays, 12 were Rex Grossman pass attempts (is this supposed to be a running team?) and doesn't it seem like Ron Turner likes to pass, pass, pass to start every single darn game???
* Patrick Mannelly is one of the Bears 4 team captains that appear on the field during the coin toss. I am a person very divided on the use of Patrick Mannelly. On one hand, I don't remember a time when there was a bad snap... I mean the guy is a true master of his craft. On the other hand, the problem I have is the use of a roster position for a specialist that other teams do not slot a position for. That position could be used on the 53 person roster for an extra offensive lineman that doubles as a long snapper, or a kicker that just booms kickoffs through the uprights, or just use that roster slot for Devin Hester. In summation - Slim Tim is torn on this one...
* Devin Hester is one fast, exciting dude.
* The camera loves Dusty Dvoracek.
* We need to get healthy. Specifically we need Ian Scott, Tank Johnson and Mike Brown back to full health on defense.
* C. Benson is a little immature and he shows it on occasion. The story of him leaving early bores me. Ho-friggin-hum. The offensive line will block just as well for him as they block for T. Jones. I am glad that B. Urlacher and M. Brown did not take it easy on him in practice, Lord knows other defenses will not take it easy on him. Get healthy, practice hard, win games...* The SD Chargers 11 penalties made the Bears game fairly easy to win.
* Olin Kreutz has not been called for one single snap infraction yet this preseason, but there are still two games...
* Rashied Davis wants the WR job.
* Devin Hester can hit opposing running backs pretty well.
* The Bears should sign Lance Briggs to a long term contract.
More to come, Go Bears!!! - Slim Tim
