07:58 AM ET 10.26 | Even in a bye week, the Bears can be taking steps backward. How you divvy up blame between bad coaching and worse [Jay] Cutler the last two losses matters less than what those defeats meant. If the obituary for the 2010 season is written after a fourth straight year without making the playoffs, the cause of death will be traced to the last two Sundays at Soldier Field. With the AFC East foes looming and the Vikings and Packers lurking, the opportunity portion of the Bears' schedule has passed. The Bears are idle Sunday. But they may have just completed their (good)bye week.

On the verge? Sadly, it's way beyond that.

No worse than what the Cowboys have done. Thier finished as well.

Jay Cutler has got to be to jumping at shadows around his house. He's taken more hits than Buster Douglas....

His postgame press conference was incredibly lame. he should have handed a contract to Hall to sign on as a Bears receiver. Dumb a$$

A bad GM.

Yes. The bright side for the Bears is that Jerry Angelo can be fired.

Sad but true...

The Bears were done the day they traded for Cutler.

That contract extension the Bears gave Cutler after the end of last season is going to make it tough for Ted Phillips to dump him anytime soon.

This should be Cutler's media photo. Either that or something with him chasing Hall.

Hall has the best single day receiving yards for the Bears.

Jay is calling McD today and asking for his old job back. Orton's manhood still cannot be found.

Somebody has to win the NFC North. Ain't gonna be the Lions. Ain't gonna be the Vikes, either. Green Bay was supposed to waltz into the Superbowl, but injuries and disappointing play all around leave them at 4-3, same as the Bears. The good news is that they don't play the quarterback-eating Giants until after Christmas.

Don't get me wrong. Duh Bears not only poop in the woods, they do it on the field, too. Yeah, they won their first 4 games on luck, but right now they may be the only lucky team in the division.
