Bears at Vikings (2 Viewers)

[Maurile Tremblay]

Go.

 

[Staley Da Bear]

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Skol!

:horns:

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

First offensive play and ADP takes it off the right side for 52 yards. He's pretty good.

 

[Awful Waffle]

AP is just unreal.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

By golly, the Vikings converted a 3rd down with a passing play! Little pass over the middle to Jenkins.

ADP follows that play with a 15 yard run to the left. Vikings ball at the Bears 2 yard line.

 

[gigantor]

Bears are done without Urlacher and Jennings

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

TD for ADP!

SKOL!

The list of former RBs that can be considered better than ADP keeps dwindling. We're watching an all-time talent.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Bears rush defense is not there

 

[otello]

God AP is good.

 

[Jobber]

Wow.

 

[Kleck]

You know AD is coming, yet you still can't stop him.

 

[gigantor]

Bears 7-15 without Urlacher

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Bears start just inside of their own 20 with a pass over the middle into coverage. Curious to see how the Vikings cover Marshall.

 

[Sweet Feet]

already...

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Interception Vikings for the TD!!!!

SKOOOOOOLLLLLL!

Cutler tried to hit A.Jeffrey and Viking rookie J.Robinson with the pick. Good chance this will be overturned on the runback but the Vikings will keep the ball in Bears territory.

 

[Jobber]

Out of bounds means its Peterson time.

 

[gigantor]

Jeffrey falls down, or gets pushed a little.

either way its a pick

 

[Tony Jabroni]

Foot is out of bounds. Feed ADP!

 

[Kleck]

Jay = clutch

 

[gigantor]

Jay = clutch

not a huge fan of him but that was obviously not his fault

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Out of bounds confirmed. Here comes ADP and friends.

 

[Statorama]

That cheering sound you just heard was every Adrian Peterson owner yelling when that defensive TD was overturned

 

[gigantor]

Melton down. Bears have no chance

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Consecutive runs by ADP to start the series for about 4 total yards.

Bears DT H.Melton is injured on the field. He's looked like a pretty good player in the limited Bears games I've watched this season. Unlikely that they have a player with similar talent sitting on the bench.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Make that three consecutive runs. The third is another TD for ADP!

Vikings up 14 - 0 with 8 minutes remaining in the first quarter.

 

[Dr. Awesome]

Facing ADP in the playoffs. Well, it was a run.

 

[Maelstrom]

Now that is how you start a game. Now come-on Ponder, don't give it away!

 

[Awful Waffle]

Damn, was hoping Kyle Rudolph could vulture one of those TD's from Peterson.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Bears KR Weems makes an awful decision and tries to take the kickoff from the Bears endzone and gets tackled inside the 10.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Bears offense has looked ugly so far. I recall writing something similar the last time these played so I'm VERY cautious with my optimism right now.

 

[gigantor]

Cutler with a tough 11 yard run. He's a bruiser

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Wow. Cutler with a tough guy run straight up the middle and through multiple defenders to get a bout 10 yards and a first down.

 

[Statorama]

Stack 6/7 in the box and double-team Marshall and there's no Bears offense.

 

[Annyong]

Was planning on drinking beer all day, but might have to go with Captain instead

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Sweet open field tackle by Winfield busts up the screen pass to Forte! 4th down.

 

[Annyong]

God I hate Jared Allen now.

Funny story, I ran into a Jared Allen impersonator at a Warrior Dash in Channahon, Il a few years back. Apparently Jared Allen interviewed him impersonating himself for some Vikings thing.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Was planning on drinking beer all day, but might have to go with Captain instead

I have a little bit of some Four Roses bourbon sitting near me. Perhaps I'll join your cause.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Careless control of the football by Ponder is negated by an advantageous call by the officials otherwise it was a fumble and score for the Bears.

Vikings do nothing with the series and punt from inside their own 20. Best field position yet for the Bears is coming up next.

 

[gigantor]

wasnt intentional grounding?

 

[Donnybrook]

Dumb play by Ponder. Could have easily been ruled the other way.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

My wife and our 1 year old daughter have just headed off into the heavy snow to do some grocery shopping while I sit watching ball and drinking.

Earning my World's Greatest Dad mug right now.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Bears go play action which doesn't really fool anyone but Cutler completes and simple pass to Marshall for the first down.

 

[GSDguy]

Damn Dish Network vs. MN winter.... oh well, I will have to rely on the updates here as well as the scroll at nfl.com

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

Vikings defensive line hasn't bothered Cutler so far. Robison hasn't gotten any pressure which is concerning as he was abused by the Packers last week.

Cutler can't convert the 3rd down pass and Bears are forced to punt.

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

PM sent.

 

[gigantor]

D is depleted. hard to watch

 

[Statorama]

I want to complain about the Bears D, but that Peterson guy is pretty good

 

[Bracie Smathers]

Any word on Bears K Robbie Gould?

Gould has a left calf strain and is questionable to play against the Vikings on Sunday, Judd Zulgad of 1500ESPN.com reports.

Spin:

The injury happened during pregame warmups, according to the Chicago Tribune, and it's a potentially devastating blow to fantasy owners with Gould in their lineups.

Is he playing?

 

[Toxteth O'Grady]

ADP with two more runs and is over 100 for the game and the quarter. It would have been ugly at the Dome if Ponder was forced to pass and struggled. The fans here are completely fed up with his failures.
