Our mailman is a Bears fan. This morning he expects me to show up to work in black. However, that won't be the case and what I will tell him is that I am pleased as punch...we confirmed (it has always been assumed) that our backup QB is better than any QB on the Chicago roster.

Overall I am not worried. In fact I am energized. To go into Dallas without two studs (Woodson and KGB not being able to play cost us 14 points, IMHO) and to lose the third stud midgame and play them close, even with boneheaded playcalling for a couple of series, is very very encouraging (Andy Reid notwithstanding, this is a moral victory, as least for the fans). I loved the onside kick attempt. Thought that was gutsy and appropriate. I don't know what they heck they were thinking there for a bit tossing long bombs, etc....in fact I said to my wife about 1 minute prior to Collinsworth getting on it, I said, "WTF is McCarthy doing? This is not the Green Bay offense, certainly not what got us to 10-1." Unreal. I think that short lapse was also a very sigificant factor in the game. Overall, I am very pleased. Dallas in January is not so very scary after last night.
