    JC, I don't think you read this entire thread. Cincy did NOT handle the Bears. Read my post on that game. The Bears outplayed Cincy. The difference was the Bears had 6 turnovers vs one for Cincy. Cincy had two easy short field scores off turnovers in the first qty.
    frank, You keep talking about those turnovers like their a blip on the radar. The bears didn't just give them to the Bengals. Cincy should get equal credit for "Forcing" 6 turnovers and in the end. Cincy dogged them on their own field ....... good. Who cares if they keep driving down the field. If they keep turning it over, it's not a good sign for their offense. Tighten up and shorten the field a little bit while putting pressure on Orton and look what happens. Total Yardage doesn't mean nearly as much as scoreboard does (IMO).

      You are correct. Defensive teams deserve lots of credit for creating turnovers. However, I does that mean the Bears will turn the ball over 6 times on Sunday. Let's not forget that was Orton's third game as a pro.

      You raised a very good point earlier regarding John Fox. He's a great coach. A great defensive coach. He'll confuse Orton and probably succeed. The key will Chicago be able to run the ball and control the clock. Fox will probably put 8 in the box forcing Orton to throw.

        Don't be fooled by Carolina's record. They have played the easiest schedule in the NFL.

        Last weekend at home they looked pretty average against a bad beat up Jets team. They were only leading 10-3 entering the 4th Qtr. The twenty points they scored in the 4th were off turnovers.
        The Panthers impressive record was a hoax. They played the easiest schedule in football.

        Rook and Spark. Congrats
