Dismal Bears thrashed in Dallas

Lovie Smith claimed he was 'furious' after an inept defensive display, after The Bears proved to be no match for the rampant Cowboys. The Bears defence could find no way to halt The Cowboys potent passing attack, giving up 358yds in the air and three touchdowns.

Of equal concern will be the bluntness of The Bears attack, as Cutler struggled to find any time in the pocket, and drive after drive ended with a punt away. The Bears only managed to convert two 3rd downs all day, one of which led to the first TD of the day as Cutler found Hester fromm 44yds, taking the lead adter Dallas had opened the scoring with a FG.

From then on it was one way traffic as Tony Romo converted on touchdowns with Austin, Hurd and Choice. D Buehler chipped in with another 2 field goals.

Veteran Linebacker Brian Urlacher said his team needed to 'man up' as they prepare to face NFC North rivals Green Bay next week. The Packers lead the division on 2-0 and boast passing attack that is sure to provide more problems for The Bears.
