I'm not too sure that was the case. Dont get me wrong, his inactivity put our playbook in a figure 4, but there were other deciding factors that we simply could not overcome. Desean Jackson played with his head up his a$$ for a good portion of the game. (botched punt and bad routes) Akers needs to phuckin learn how to kick the ball from the right hash mark. With the absence of LJ SMith, the red zone presence was a flat out joke. The O line, that somehow gets praise for being good, couldnt get the 1-2 yards needed on multiple occasions ( Shawn Andrews out makes big difference I guess). Big Red had to settle for field goals, and that was the difference in the game. It was like there was no sense of urgency to extend drives and put 7 on the board.

If it werent for the defense, this game would have been over before the second half started. I cant think of the last run defense that has been this good (fast).

I give the bears credit though. They knew where they had to attack and did. Anytime a team has 4 turnovers and wins the game, alot could be said about both parties. All the Birds can do is leave this game in the rear view, take a look at the bad things and work out the kinks. Expand on the playbook for dummies once 36's wheel gets back to normal and open things up.
