my question was what the hell was woodson doing knocking the ball out/tackling tramon before he was in the endzone? lol i looked at the replay a lot of times thinking he slipped or something but it just looks like he dove at Tramon going for the football, i guess he just wanted to make a play haha

The challenge on Tramon Williams' interception return was a very good one even though it didn't pay off. It was a VERY close call, and if the play had been overturned it would've been a fumble out of the end zone for a touchback: Bears' ball on the 20 yard line, first and ten.

It was 4th and 11 how does a 5 or 10 yard penalty change ne thing when u are that deep in the hole. Smart play is snap ball to ur punter then challenge. Cause what if GB muffs it.

The point isn't to take the penalty yards. the point is to essentially give yourself a free play.

scenario 1)
You snap the ball when there is 12 guys on the field and your fake punt is succesful in getting u a first down. awesome.
scenario 2)
you snap the ball when there is 12 guys on the field and your fake punt fails. Big deal, take the 5 yard penalty and then just go with your original plan to punt, only this time you got 5 extra yards out of the deal. i'd take it.
scenario 3)
you're too late and we see what happened the other night. FUCK.

Yeah, it's about taking the free play. They didn't execute. Props to Swain for the head's up play, too.

I thought Lovie had a well-coached team out there, especially on defense.

Just glad to have survived the whole damn thing with a win.

I understand the freeplay thing completely. However it is about down distance and field posistion. There are times in a game to make a risky call. Say 4th and 11 on the opponents 40 sure why not.
4th and 11 inside of your own 30 come on and a direct snap really. 4th and 3 ok why not try it ur odds of making it are much better from a situational stand point.
I can see the long snapper doing a rushed snap to the punter in that scenario not to the upback just plain craziness.

I am therefor I think.

Actually, it was a good call on the part of da Bears. I will defend Smith here. The fault was in the execution. The RB took too long to pay attention. If he had been paying attention, we get penalized for 12 men on the field and they keep the drive going. Completely different ballgame.

So neither the long snapper nor Smith are the goats here. It's the fault of the RB.
