Week 12: Bears (4-6) vs. LSB (2-8) Noon FOX/780

[Guest]

What i wouldn't give for a coach who wants to step on the other team's throat rather than try and eek by every week. There is no way in hell you see the Patriot's or Denver running out the clock up 11 with 10 minutes to go in the game

 

Didn't Denver do exactly that last year and it bit them in the ass?

Not up 11 with 20 minutes to play.

The Bears can't put the dagger in a team because they lack a dagger and they wouldn't know what to do with one if they possessed one

Go for it now.

 

Drop back deep in shotgun and thrown up a hail mary.

 

That's 10 seconds.

Nice punt, megapunt.

[Sammy Sofa]

What a lame win. The only upside is that McCown looked like absolute [expletive] and it'll shut the meatballs up about that.

great draft pick

[JonJayCutler]

10 second runoff?

Knowing meatballs as well as I do, I think the argument is McCown had to operate under Lovie's leash and didn't get Trestman's wide open attack.

[BigSlick]

Bears had 204 yards of offense against the 2-8 Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

 

They're going to lose the next 4 games

We'll finish ahead of the Lions if we sweep them and break even in the other games.

 

Not that we can sweep them though.

I don't think the Bears will be within 10 in either Lions game tbh

[WrigleyField 22]

They shouldn't but they'll find a way, 9-7 baby.

8-8 here we come

If by some miracle they do win Thursday-Thursday, they suddenly look amazing for the playoffs.

Granted, this team can implode at any given minute, the Lions haven't looked like world beaters of late either. Thursday will be interesting, who knows

This team lost to the Bills and the Panthers. Nothing is easy for them. Even if they beat the Lions they will be underdogs to the Cowboys, I wouldn't take them against the Saints, nor are they ever any good at Minnesota.

 

This team is hella cooked, yall.

[UMFan83]

I'm just happy there will be some meaning, however little, against the Lions. I'd watch either way but now I can look forward to it a little more.

CJ's ankle might be a determining factor

Buffalo- Loss

SF- terrible 1st half

NYJets- mediocre on offense, survived bad QB on D

Packers- embarrassing loss

Panthers- no defense, turnovers on O

Falcons- decent game all around

Dolphins- bad loss

Patriots- embarrassing loss

Packers- embarrassing loss

Vikings- moved the ball, barely scored enough points

Bucs- only scored enough points thanks to bad opponent turnovers

 

This team has played 1 full game that was even on par with what an 8-8 team did last year. I don't have much hope for this season to end strongly. This offense just isn't good enough.

I guess I don't understand why. Line blocking a little worse? Yeah. Jeffery with a step down? Yup. Marshall having a down year? Yup. But those can't account for the 2nd best offense in the league turning into somewhere in the late teens. Is it on Cutler? Trestmans play calling? Or a combo of a lot of things. It's rather perplexing.

Its all those. Cutler has had bad games throwing the ball. Marshall and Jeffery haven't made the plays they did last year. The OL is significantly worse, but it's not a complete disaster like before last year. The playcalling has been pretty bad. But I can't say if is because all of the aforementioned things.

[Guest]

This game proves the bears aren't completely terrible.

[Guest]

It wasn't the second best offense in the league last year. It was very good, but not THAT good.

[USSoccer]

Maybe the meatballs who scream all day long about Cutler not taking care of the ball can give the guys credit for taking a couple sacks when he could have forced it, and executing passes that could only have been caught by the receivers in an effing rainstorm.

 

Screw it. The team gets to play a meaningful T'sgiving game Thursday. I'm glad for it
