Week 2 - Post Game thoughts...

Devin Hester is one fast exciting dude.... But sometime as a punt returner, you need to catch the ball and run forward to gain 10 yards. Teams will start noticing that you want to take it to the house everytime and will shut you down. As a Bears punt returner, field the ball cleanly and gain positive yardage. So far, Devin Hester has fielded every single ball that has come his way. And that is quite a few punts so far!!!

Rex Grossman is the man.

The Bears skill position players have topped the most added fantasy football players on Yahoo! Fantasy Football. Topping the list of most added fantasy players is Desmond Clark followed closely by Rex Grossman and John Gilmore.

Is Bernard Berrian finally the #2 Wide Receiver we have been hoping for? I don't see any reason to believe otherwise.

Can this offense continue to do the things we have been doing in December and January? I say yes... as in, Run the ball, throw a few deep balls, and let Rex utilize the newfound vertical passing game to the tight ends and wide receivers.

I hear that Daniel Manning will be starting alongside Mike Brown against the Vikings. Good for him and good for the powers that be who drafted him, I hope he continues doing well.

Kudos to the Offensive Line for keeping all defenders away from Rex Grossman. It seems as if they gave him all the time in the world to throw the ball. NICE WORK!

Thoughts after week 1.

Congrats to Moose M. he finally showed his stuff. Nice routes, nice catches, NICE GAME!

Ron Turner found out that he has a good pass catching TE in D. Clark and Rex got the ball to him.

Rex Grossman is 3-0 vs. Pack... He just has their number.

Speaking of Rex, what an excellent game! He just looked very confident out there.

Devin Hester is one fast, exciting dude.

It was nice to see two healthy starting RBs out there. T.J. looked very strong, no signs of injury.

Shutting out the Packers has a very nice feel to it, doesn't it? 233 games without getting shut out until today.

I know the Packers are a real bad team, but nontheless, we whooped them good!

The Bears should sign a veteran WR.

Now that the 53 man rosters have been established, here is the list of WR currently on the Bears roster:

Berrian, Bernard
Bradley, Mark
Currie, Airese
Davis, Rashied
Gage, Justin
Muhammad, Muhsin

Of the casualties due to the roster cuts, here is a short list of available receivers that I would give a chance to:

Charles Rogers - Detroit
Peter Warrick - Seattle
Jabar Gaffney - Houston
Rod Gardner - Green Bay
Tyrone Calico - Tennessee

And some others that might "bear" considering:

Quincy Morgan - Pittsburgh
Darious Watts - Denver
Kelly Campbell - Miami
