Thank goodness Lovie came to his senses!

LOL... they traded BIG picks for a big armed QB. They're just trying to get the pass going because their offense was so one dimensional last year. You'll see more of Forte, especially when the weather gets cold.
On a side note, did anyone else notice #80 was the target for the majority of Cutler's throws? Earl Bennett was my #1 sleeper pick of the draft. I took him in both leagues and my friends all called me crazy. Last night he caught 7 balls against a good GB secondary, and he was targeted for another 5-6 that were poorly thrown. He's in for a big year, peeps.

Yep ... I added this guy before the season started and Im liking the decision, once Cutler gets going I think this will be his #1 target. Hester is good for big plays but Bennett will have the most balls thrown his way.

I picked him up as my #3 in my leagues and got an earful from people who had never heard of him. I watched him at the combine when he came out and was impressed. I was really surprised when he disappeared onto the Bears roster last year. When I heard they signed Cutler, his former college QB and teammate, I wanted to make sure I snagged him. Anyone who gets that many chances during a game is going to blow up at least once in a while. I had a dude trying to overcharge me for a WR last night because I lost Gonzales for 6 weeks, but once he saw Bennett the yapping stopped immediately.

I know it is only week one and I need to calm down but I hope the Bears go back and review game film and see that they need to have a balanced attack, and involve Forte and Olsen more in the pass game.
Yeah, Bennett is seriously on my FA radar, he is still a FA in my league and hope to get him once the waiver wire opens in our league.
I will have to decide whether to drop Kevin Walter (Schaub looks shaky) or Steve Smith (NYG). I don't know I have time but I will definitely keep an eye on Bennett
