NFL Playoffs: Chicago Bears Lost the Defensive Edge

Coming into the matchup between the Panthers and Bears, everybody spoke of the mighty Bears defense. They had an amazing run this season by allowing fewer than double digit points per game at home this season. With a week off and the media attention hyping them up, they lost their defensive edge.

The Bears were definitely rusty and unprepared in this game. They had a week off to heal their wounds and to review video tape but the week off also took away their sharpness on the field. They were so successful defensively because they would be able to swarm to the ball in record time. Yesterday as Smith was running all over them, their ability to swarm to the ball was questionable.

The Panthers also did a great job at picking apart the Bears defense early. The Steelers did much of the same against the Colts by getting to them early. The rustiness of the team off of a bye will not last forever so the Panthers knew to pass the ball early hitting big plays and getting the early touchdown.

The Bears offense looked great this game and for people to question their offense would be a mistake. It is also a mistake for people to blame their defense for this loss because without them, they would not have been in the playoffs.

If anything, blame should be placed on Lovie Smith for not preparing his team for the speed and intensity of a real game. He also made very little defensive adjustments at half time to give his team a chance to win. There was also a very poor game plan heading into the game to defend Steve Smith.

Find Time to Relax and Enjoy This Short Life

Taking a vacation is the best way to get your mind off struggles, stress, or bad times. Sometimes taking a vacation is a very expensive to get away from work. A vacation can also provide a fun time for your children who are constantly doing homework. The main questions you have to ask yourself are where you are going to go and how much will it cost. I have never met anyone who would not like to get a vacation for a reduced price.

Now where would you want to travel for reduced prices? Would you like to travel out of the country to Europe or the caribbean Islands, or would you like to travel inside the United States? The United States has several wonderful vacation destinations that make your vacation unforgettable. One of the most popular destinations is Orlando, Florida, home of walt Disney world. Your children will thank you one day because any of the Walt Disney theme parks will absolutely make your dreams come true.

If you are looking for a destination for an upcoming honeymoon or you would like a place to take your wife of girlfriend, look no further than Las Vegas, Nevada. Sin City is one of the most popular honeymoon destinations in the world. This is a destination where dreams and impossibilities come to life with moving statues (Caesars Palace), water slides inside a building (Circus Circus Hotel), or how about a volcano that erupts every hour (The Mirage).

If that does not show how impossibilities are conquered, I do not know what will. The point of a vacation is to have a great time and enjoy your surroundings and hope that you have someone to share it with. You have to enjoy life since it is so short and precious. So experience the magic and take a vacation that will make your utmost dreams come true.
