Week 6: Bears at Falcons, noon central on Fox

[Derwood]

LOL

[Omar]

Epic fail.

[Outshined_One]

That was a horrible 3rd down call.

[manbearcub]

what an effing joke.

[Guest]

Turner is an idiot.

[Butterscup1679666578]

pathetic blocking. pathetic coaching. give me a break

[Balsa]

Ron Turner you piece of howry....

[Guest]

Seriously, how can you not sneak once at least?

[Jon]

Two yards of penetration before Forte ever secured the ball. He has to know better than to leave his feet, though. That was a terrible decision.

[David]

If they knew they were going for it on 4th, I would much rather have seen a play action attempt on 3rd down than that freaking handoff to Jason McKie.

thats what she said

[UMFan83]

That was a horrible decision to go for it down 2 scores midway through the 4th. You take the guaranteed points. Now theres 8 mins left and you're still down 2 scores.

[Soul]

You could feel that stop coming a mile away. Nice job Bears.

Handing off to Jason McKie shouldn't even be the last option.

[Derwood]

clearly the plan is to get the safety, then drive for the tying score

I disagree.

 

They're right there. There's no guarantee they'll be right there again.

[Careless]

WHAT?

[Brian]

what?

[Fred Hornkohl]

How can a defensive player delay the game ??

the only way I can think of is preventing the ball from being set for the snap, that obviously didn't happen

[Jon]

Dusty apparently hit the ball, though I'm not sure it was before the false start.

[Guest]

How's that a penalty?

There is also no guarantee that you get the ball 2 more times if you fail to get in the end zone. Worry about getting the TD when you have the ball down 6

Nope, they were right to go for it.
