Seriously, how long are we going to put up with awful special teams play. I would of lost my job if I was Schwartz because I would of body slammed Kwans ass on the sideline. They need to fire that turd and do it quick. I don’t want to see that piece of crap on the sidelines the rest of the year.

I agree with every comment made regarding special teams play, but why is that after half time every game we turn to shit. I mean we came out and punched Chicago in their mouth, put up 21 points, went into the half with momentum (having just scored)we come out and not only our special teams but our offense and Defense was stagnet. Grant it, the D was playing with a short field behind them and our Offense had a long field to go, but why is it our offense lost all its confidence? I mean we had 3 three and outs and a turnover the 1st 4 possessions in the 2nd half.

I dont get it….

There was a lot to be disappointed about:
 - Running game. We were hoping having Kevin Smith active would give us a good solid foundation via the running in which to build the pass. That never happened. Smith was constantly being hit in the backfield and through only his sheer force of will was he able to manage 2 scores.

- The O-Line. Not only couldn’t they get a push for Smith, but they were constantly dominated by Bears D-Lineman, who sacked Stafford 4 times. That’s not good enough.

 - The Defence. They get a slight pass since they were often defending short fields but in the end, allowing 48 points is not tolerable. We couldn’t stop Forte or Wolfe when it counted, leading to a couple of huge gains and Cutler picked us apart in the redzone. Overall, just disappointing.

 - But the biggest disappointment comes from….THE SPECIAL TEAMS. I have never seen a more dismal display in my life. The coverage on kicks was atrocious. We were lucky only to give up one score. To have their drives start, on average, around the half way means they have only half the field to deal with, making it hard for our D. We also were horrid on returns, not gaining any meaningful yardage, and when we did, a penalty would negate it. I am prepared to say that the special teams was 75% the reason we lost. Without those short fields and with a few decent returns, this game may have been much different.

Well, it’s always good to finish on a positive, so here it is.

- The passing game. Stafford managed to sustain the form he found against Washington. While he did have a costly turnover or two, his numbers and performance apart from that were very strong, which were reflected in his QB rating of 89, his best yet. Calvin Johnson was also brilliant, going for over 100 yards for the first time this year. Seeing these two hook up like they did fills me with a lot of confidence. Other guys like Pettigrew and Heller made significant contributions as well and shouldn’t be forgotten.

In the end, this was a frustrating game. A great first half in which the possibility of a victory was easily in our reach was eroded away with our dismal second half. I think a similar game may be in hand next week against the Steelers with hopefully the form of our first half, and not the second.

says it all. He, in a nutshell, said it was the worst half of football he’d ever been associated with and that everyone… offense, defense, special teams, coaches and even the trainers… pretty much sucked. Good for him. Way better than the “everything is on me” B.S. that Marinelli would give. Schwartz will not accept play like this. He’ll make wholesale changes if needed. I like that a lot.

would someone please when you get the chance punch stan kwan in the face as hard as you can, i got half your bail money.

he is a bum and why he is still employed is an absolute joke!
