What an ass kicking. Bears just plain and simply kicked Dallas's ass tonight.

Pass interference was the call. If there is a deflection/tip before the PI occurs, you can challenge that. Otherwise you can't challenge PI.

I feel Captain Neckbeard could still be a starter in the NFL. It's a shame he was the first Tebow victim. At least if Romo ever gets hurt, Dallas can still be in games.

I'm pretty sure Dallas has scored the least amount of TDs of all NFL teams. Genius idea to not upgrade the O-line. They actually weren't that bad this game though. Can't really say there were good, but the pass protection wasn't why they lost. Romo and the WRs just tarded out.

Yep, they just confirmed Dallas is last in scoring. Worse than Cleveland. Worse than Miami. Worse than JACKSONVILLE.

Thanks for the answer but, what difference does that make? Surely a PI and a deflection causes a down anyway, so it doesn't matter what it was, right?

how does one throw 5 picks in a game?

Defensive pass interference makes it a first down for Chicago. No PI made it 4th down. Because of a tipped pass, there is no pass interference because the ball is considered a free ball.

If it was PI without a deflection it can't be reviewed and it's 1st down at the spot of the foul. If PI happens in the end zone it's 1st and Goal at the 1.

Since it was deflected you can challenge that fact. The officials saw the tip on the replay and called off the PI. PI can't happen if the ball is tipped before the PI occurs. So yeah, that down counted as an incompletion and it was 4th down after that.

Anyway, good game by Chicago. They are finally looking like a team solid in every front. Jaguars, BYE, Lions, Panthers, and Titans are the next 5 weeks, and Chicago could realistically become 8-1 in that time frame. Of course, Carolina and Detroit can put up a good fight too, so I could easily see 5-3 as well. No game is easy though and anything can happen, but that game definitely makes me feel better about the rest of the up coming games.

I am so proud of the Bears tonight. That was the complete game most of us Chicago fans have been waiting for. My two favorite things tonight were the 73 yard Briggs pick 6 and Conte's two solo tackles on fuckin WITTEN. He's supposed to be some big TE and Conte just threw him down twice. I got a good laugh from that. Dallas looked terribly uninspired.
