Gus Frerotte
2 December 2008
On the very next play, Gus Frerotte found ex-Bear Bernard Berrian on the sideline behind broken Charles Tillman coverage for a 99-yard touchdown pass. Minnesota went up 10-7 and proceeded to humiliate the “Mediocre of the Midway” for the rest of the night.

This will open up things downfield for Vikings QB Gus Frerotte, whom the Bears will again challenge to be perfect in the passing game. The secondary will be hoping for a solid pass rush this week, as it could lead to another fun-filled day of Frerotte interceptions.

The Bears defense stood out with five turnovers, four of which came by way of Gus Frerotte interceptions. They sacked Frerotte twice, one coming off of a safety blitz by Kevin Payne and the other from Tommie Harris on Minnesota’s final drive. Outside of those positives, the Bears were awful on defense. They let the Viking wide receivers beat them time and again as well as allowing Adrian Peterson to rush for 121 yards thanks to a 54 yarder he broke for one of his two touchdowns. Besides his few awful throws, Frerotte was on target, racking up almost 300 yards passing to go with his two scores.

The Bears can’t be stubborn this week regarding Berrian, as Gus Frerotte has show the ability to find him downfield, often in key situations. He and Berrian will surely look to duplicate Matt Ryan and Roddy White’s tremendous success of last week. Double teams should be coming Berrian’s way in bunches. With that in mind, the Bears first focus will still be on running back Adrian Peterson. Early last season the Bears gave up the most rushing yards in franchise history to Peterson, getting gashed for 224 yards and three touchdowns in one game. The defense will be looking to take Peterson out of the flow early, but they’ll need help in the form of turnovers which leads to successful offensive possessions. They’ll also need a better effort from defensive tackle Tommie Harris, whose production is at a career low. Stopping Peterson will rely on his penetration in the middle of the Minnesota offensive line. If he has a poor showing, so will the Bears’ defense.
