Unbelievable

I know this is late and should have actually been written on Monday night because of the greatness that took place, but I've been a little busy, sorry. Ok so on to the night in which I had three heart attacks. The Bears versus the Arizona Cardinals, just as an example of how bad the Cards are they put the point spread on the game at 12 and a half points, on Monday night football.

The Bears get the ball first and what do they do on the first play, a bomb to Berrian, deep, his man is beat and he is open the throw... LONG, crap, then three and out. Nothing to worry about though the game just started. Man were we wrong the Cardinals were picking apart the defense piece by piece in the first half. Short routes, catching the corners off guard who were playing them to deep. Massive protection for there rookie quarterback, Matt Lienert, giving him all day to throw. The run though that didn't have a chance. They were a unstoppable wall when Arizona tried handing the ball off to Edgerrian James.

The biggest problem though was the great Sexy Rexy, who was neither great nor sexy. He was over throwing passes left, right and up the middle, I think Muhammed had one catch. The game continuously got more and more depressing as the half went by. The score at halftime 20-0. We needed something to happen and fast.

Well, the offense came out after half and still were just as terrible, Rex could not get anything going, somehow they scored a fieldgoal, but the real story was that after half you could see a little something new in the defense, and that little something was the absolutely psychotic Brian Urlacher. The man was literally everywhere, he was in on or making ever single tackle. He stuffed all the Cardinals lines of offense. The rest of the D was also pickin up the slack of the offense and late in the third quarter caused a fumble and recovered it for a touchdown, but still the score was now 23-10.

In the fourth quarter the same was still happening the Bears offense was terrible the D was now lookin great and... Urlacher could fly, but all this was to no avail because all the Cardinals had to do was run out the clock and with 7 minutes left that is what they planned to do. Hand the ball off to the good running back let him go and let the clock die down in one of the biggest upsets in awhile. But, then with 5 minutes left and all hopes and dreams fading from all the wishful eyes of Bears fans all around me Urlacher strips the ball out Edgerins hands by shear force and will, the ball goes flying and then is immediately scooped up by Tillman who runs it all the way back for a touchdown.

The defense tired and beaten up has to immediately turn around and play D all over again but this time the hope is back and they have a attitude that cannot be defeated. The score is now 23-17. What does the D do led by Superman they stop them in three and force them to punt, but what does that even matter the offense has been playing like crap all game, well they punt to Devin Hester the rookie and he takes off with a nice block in the beginning, duckin and weavin in and out of Cardinals only a couple more Cards to get by and of course there is a guy comin right for him, but then out of nowhere URLACHER with a huge block to let Hester take on the kicker who he easily blows by, TOUCHDOWN. The Bears now lead by 1 and there are three minutes to play.

The defense, who now basically has not left the field in 7 minutes worth of play, is back on the field again ready to defend there small lead, but its not easy and they let up some big plays. Lienert lead them all the way down to the 22 yard line and with no time on the clock hands the ball over to there veteran kicker for a 40 yard fieldgoal. The kick is up and its... NO GOOD, wide left, he missed it, amazing the Bears win. The Bears Win. Chairs are knocked over people yelling and screaming all over the Chicagoland, drinks flyin, people are dancing. The Bears Defense and special teamed just pulled off greatness comback in the last 7 minutes off that game. It was truly unbelievable and something I will never forget. I am so glad that I would have never stopped watching that game, and don't feel sorry for those who did.

Oh and Happy Birthday Meg and Ditka
