Week 5: Bears (2-2) @ Panthers (2-2) Noon Fox/780

[Soul]

Sheesh touch a panther and the fans react like someone got a headshot

I feel like Trestman goes super conservative whenever the bears start a drive around the 10 or less which sadly is way too often

 

Obviously you go conservative in those situations but Trestman seems like he punts the drive away in those situations

 

He absolutely does. Unless one of this screens or draws end up gaining significant yardage he just gives up possession of the ball.

Like he's afraid of the crushing turnover deep

 

Which I get but you gotta at least try to change the field position a bit. Thankfully we don't have Maynard to punt the ball 30 yards with 3 second hang time

This is just the "first out of the playoff spots"-iest team ever.

 

Honestly think they'll miss by more than that, given the nature of the NFC West and NFC North.

[Soul]

we haven't shown an ability to stop newton

Pressure up the middle but it's too rare

[rawaction]

You'd think one of the 2 top 7 WRs in the league or the best TE thru the first 4 weeks would be open at least 50% of the time

Dumb question of no import, maybe for Andy. Why do they have the NFL logo at midfield?

[Tryptamine]

Wow what a terrible series for the Panthers. Just awful.

[Soul]

Lol whut

[UMFan83]

Umm thanks Cam?

[Guest]

Yay, a touchback.

[Soul]

Thanks for the football

The NFL emblem remains at midfield, representing owner Jerry Richardson's commitment to the league overall.

Jerry Richardson said when Charlotte was awarded a franchise that he wanted to thank the NFL for giving him a team, so he opted to put their logo at midfield instead of the team's.

[Guest]

interesting fair catch call there

 

yeah, he had tons of room, we got lucky

[JonJayCutler]

Bout due for another deep one to Jeffery.

[UMFan83]

I think its pretty clear that this game is going to end with the Panthers down by 6 or less points with the ball and less than 2 minutes to play

[Soul]

Utilize Bennett more first

[Soul]

Man Marshall just not being used

Right on, thanks.

[UMFan83]

I swear he thinks Jeffery is 7 feet tall....

[Soul]

Every drive that fails...
