Bears: Not much to say

There's not much to say after a game like that. The game pretty much went as expected. I thought it could have been a lot worse. The Vikings just more pulled away rather than sprinted ahead like the Cardinal and Bengal games. I struggle to watch the game flipping to Cinderella Man during commercials. Maybe I'm just hoping that this one time former playoff contender can resurrect itself at some point, well not this season.

• Stopping the Run. For the most part the Bears stopped AP. He went for 85 yards on 25 carries for an average of 3.4 yards, 1 TD and 2 Fumbles. That's actually, the same average as Forte. On the other hand we traded that for Brett Favre going 32 of 48 for 392 yards and 3 TDs. But the main goal this week was to stop AP and it appears for the most part he was and that's gotta count for something right?
• 3rd Down. 3rd Down was a killer though. The Vikings converted 12 out of 18 3rd downs. It seemed whenever they needed it Favre always found one of his receivers to convert. For the most part the Bears played well on 1st and 2nd downs but had trouble on 3rd down.
• Offense. The offense seemed like a non-factor. In fact, I'm struggling to remember an offensive play in the 2nd half. The Bears went for -3 offensive yard in the 2nd half. Definitely a forgettable half.
