[NU Sports] If Pittsburgh wins does the "curse" get broken?

[Jeff Beamsley]

William Judson made the interception late in the game after Fuller was
injured and McMahon was trying to mount a comeback, but according to the
Dolphin web site he went to South Carolina State.

I didn't read anything here in SF--But in the game you are referring the
Bears were stopped by a key interception by a NU guy whose name I can't
remember--Kind of ironic to have a Chicagoland college player help ruin the
Bears' chance at a perfect season

Seattle played the sort of defense on Smith that the Bears should have (and

could have) played.



It reminded me of the '85 bears loss to Miami where Ditka almost came to

blows with Buddy Ryan because Ryan refused to call off the blitz and put

another defender in pass coverage.  Chicago's bid for a perfect season came

to an end as Marino's quick release ate the Bears up with short gains.  In

this year's version, Carolina took advantage of Chicago's stubbornness

regarding single coverage on Smith and he repeatedly embarrassed whomever

was hung out there with him.



Anyone read anything in the Chicago papers calling Lovie Smith out for his

poor game plan and failure to adjust?

Bentley played, but Essex was inactive.  



If the situation continues and Pittsburgh wins does it break the streak?  



To me the person has to be on the active roster to be considered.  I don't

believe they even would travel with the team to Detroit if they were

inactive.



NFL Inactives for AFC Title Game -- Trai was inactive

Defense pulls the plug on Panthers -- Lots of good Bentley quotes especially

regarding Smith http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/football/256676_hside23.html





I thought we played well in the 1st half vs. the Ill-whine-I.  You say I am

nuts?  Well we played 34 seconds of great defense each possession only to

have them hit an off-balance NBA-range 3-pointer.  We on the other hand

could not hit any easy shots.  We trapped mercilessly and stole the ball

quite a bit.  We did not get dominated on the glass like we did against PSU.

Some more balanced shooting percentages and I think we could have won.
