I've never started one of these. If it doesn't come out right, I may not do another.

1. The Bears D is good, but we should have scored more. The OLine should try to go away from zone blocking down there and let the hosses impose their will.

2. TY was open quite a bit. Those who wrote him off were wrong. He lost a TD to DPI, and a huge catch on a horrible pass by Rivers.

3. What was with Hines getting so many snaps over Taylor? Maybe it was pass blocking, but why run him up the middle? He is elusive, but small Get him in open space. Frank knows better.

4. Specs can kick. The first one barely went through, but it went through. He isn't prime AV, but he is better than last year AV.

5. Justin Houston still can dominate a game. Yes, the rest have to be able to do their job so they can't double him, but he beats his man one on one.

6. The secondary looked very good. There were a couple of blown plays, but they were much improved from week 1.

7. Rivers needs to find a way to not let his lack of speed be a detriment to the team. We will see more good defenses get pressure and he can't outrun a sloth

8. I don't know why Marcus Johnson was ever cut. He is no WR1 or WR2, but he can play.

9. What can we say about Blackmon? The dude is the baller we all thought Hooker was going to be. In fact, I think all of the rookies who played yesterday did well. I also loved seeing Okereke in on a lot of tackles for very little gain. The defensive scouts hit home runs the last three drafts.

10. Sanchez can punt with anyone. He may be the factor in changing momentum in an important game later in the season.

11. It was ugly, but a win is a win!
