Directly after the game, Urlacher was interviewed. He was asked about his performance in the 4th quarter. He replied by saying that the Cardinals didn't even attempt to block him, implying that not being blocked allowed him to do the things he did.

Who the heck was not focused on blocking the best defensive player in the league? What a joke? He ran free on every play.

Someone should go down for this poor decision.

I've been wondering about the play design on running plays for weeks. It seems every time James runs the ball ALL of the other teams linebackers are piled up in front of him with no one blocking them. Do the Cards blocking schemes even take into account linebackers? 5 OL apparently try to take on 3 or 4 DL and let James worry about all the LB's and Safety.

The guy was a wild banchee in the 2nd half - you'r right he was allowed to do anything he wanted.

I don't think the Bears had an answer for AW either but at least they accounted for him!
