Cohen = playmaker
Howard = average bruiser back running through big holes
I agree a lot with you BS, but I think you're wrong about Howard here. He is a beast. Defenses seem to have trouble tackling him once he gets going. Him and Cohen are going to be a very solid RBBC.

Tarik Cohen is the real deal. They seriously need to consider moving him to RB1.

BS is wrong on Howard. As someone who was wrong once myself I forgive him.

Look at the quality of Howard's runs, not the stats. His yards come from big holes opened up by the OLine. Tarik on the other hand doesn't need big holes to make yards. I take the latter all day long.

The oline blocks for Howard because Howard waits and uses the blockers. Cohen out runs the blockers. I love both and think as a pair we have something great.

Well, we will just have to wait and see. My main problem with Howard is, he doesn't really break tackles. He takes a hit, then falls for 2 yards. Thunder rarely works in the NFL (of course there are rare exceptions but Howard is not one of them). You're just not going to find a thunder in the NFL that breaks tackles left and right. You need to make guys miss, and Howard can't do that.

Sounds like excuses...

Railing against Howard after going 23 carries for 138 (6 YPC) and 2 TD's, including the GW TD. Is like railing against a baseball player after going 3 for 5 for 2 HR's and the walk-off, because "those two outs were really poor at-bats".

Just give it up dude... Howard won the day. By a land-slide.

Howard and Cohen...and the Defense/Special teams. Nice work fellas. Bears win....wait whaaaat? yeah Bears win! (and Howard is the real deal, and always has been.


Coulda- Put it away much earlier...not a fan of 3 and out after halftime.
Shoulda- been up by at least 10- Missed FG on Big Ben Fumble= 3 and Cooper's bonehead could have added 4 more. (we got the FG anyway, but shoulda been a TD)
Woulda- won in Regulation if they didn't drop a couple INT's.

It's all good- 220 yards rushing. And a Parnell McPhee sighting! Now...get those ailing Packers!

Congrats but Glennon sucks. They need to start Trubisky sooner than later.

Good game gents! Good home win for Da Bears!

Steelers are vastly overrated. Thanks for proving that.

Don't forget the fumble which let the Steelers to tie the game.
As far as the GW TD, lets give Cohen the credit there and the oline for opening up a monster hole where Howard didn't even get touched.

Due try to give credit where credit is due retard.

He played a helluva game. Then factor in that he was playing with a sprained AC joint... it was an impressive performance. Especially seeing as fumbling has never been an issue.

No, dingus?

You can't escape this one.
