If we could fix up our zone against the passing game we would be nasty. Teams have just stopped running on us because it's no use. We held Ronnie Brown and Kevin Jones to less than 10 yards i believe. Now get me another cornerback and we would be damn good.

heh. Only thing I took from that is the Bears D is amazing, and pretty much everyone is lined up in a pack somewhere behind them.

But once you factor in who each team has played, it's the Ravens by a long shot.Teams the Bears have played with winning Records: Giants, Jets, Patriots, and Seahawks.Teams the Ravens have played with winning Records: Bengals (twice), Chargers, Broncos, Panthers, and Saints. And they still have teams with winning records left on their schedule.
The Vikes run D is sick.. but may be a bit overrated. It's still probably the best in the league, but not as good as the sats. After they owned guys the first few weeks, people stopped running on them. You can't really get yards unless you try.

Then we would have a chance at being one of the best overall in the NFL.
So b/c the Bears play weak teams, their D isn't as good?? The forced fumbles come b/c they are good at ripping the ball, not b/c their competition sucks
