either trying something new, or a big problem, but they just went a couple minutes without any announcing.

9. They don't look too good do they?
It wasn't for Bear turnovers, they'd be trailing. That have to get a pass rush on Cutler.

14. 5 INTs and they still almost lost
Short week, so winning ugly can be excused I suppose.

11. Like watching a sports broadcast in Europe, the announcers don't
say anything unless they have something to say...novel concept...might want to try that here!

13. I see some games online like that.
There was a handful of baseball with no announcers, just the sounds of the game. And the Jets-Miami game years ago with no announcers was awesome. I have little use for most announcers. I like Mike Emerick doing hockey a lot, but after that there's a drop off for me. :)
