HOLY CHIT!!! Talk about a comeback to end all comebacks!!!!!![smilie=2:[smilie=2:[smilie=2:
The fact the Cards' missed the field goal which would have given them the game by one was just utterly unbelieveable!! My roomie is from The Windy City so naturally I think he was a bit more excited than I was but damn what a game!!!!!!!!!:giggedy::dance:

I somehow new that would happen. I said that he would miss and took the dogs out to the barn. I had a feeling the bears would win. If a team is going to go undefeated or even 15 and two they need a few games with some amount of luck involved. I am a packer fan but since they are sucking this year I felt the need to adopt another team to help me feel better. What a game.
 
I won't even mention who my team is....they have shamed me enough already the past few years:shifty::(
 
I wouldn't really call it a comeback... the Cards lost far more than the Bears won. One very-lucky late turnover and a great runback by Hester ain't things on which you can exactly plan. A team with 6 turnovers and only 3 offensive points that was down by 20 isn't really what I'd call a winner.

I'd only planned to watch until the half and then go to bed, but I was so amazed at the way in which the Cardinals were dominating the Bears that I couldn't stop watching. Arizona played with far more heart than Chi-Town, and at no point during the game did the Bears look like a 5-0 team... their offense was totally ineffective and their defense, though making a couple of key plays on turnovers, wasn't the dominant force one has come to expect. Other than in the red zone, they seemed unable to stop the Cardinals in most cases--with the obvious exception of having Edgerrine James' number.

I'm neither a Cardinals fan nor a Bears fan; I'm not a hater of either team for that matter. I fully expected the fortunes to change after the half, but halfway through the fourth quarter it was obvious the Cards weren't a fluke in the first half. It broke my heart (and pissed me off) when Rackers missed that FG because mistakes though they made, the Cardinals played a much better game overall.

That game is the only time in NFL history that a team has overcome a 20-point deficit to win without making an offensive touchdown... and the Cards are the only team ever to blow two consecutive games where a team led by 14 at the half. :doh:

It sure was a hoot to watch, though.
