step on their throats

puke

[David]

damn it

[Guest]

And there it is.

Bears looked competent and took advantage (but couldn't as David said, step on their throats) and Jeffery healthy is such a force.

 

Liked the 4th down decision even if it didn't work. Can't seem to play good run defense though.

No pass rush, either

[David]

way to hold up in the red zone

Run defense has been a little disappointing but it's really nice to see linebackers flying all over the place again

Hey our LB flew around the last two years, their backs were just facing the wrong way.

4th down decision was good. Calling a sneak with a rookie guard playing center in a real NFL game for the first time, not so much.

my kingdom for dave toub

[SpongeWorthy]

why is there a tv timeout after every punt and KO ffs

[BigSlick]

God that Texans defense is so loaded. Clowney is a monster.

[Butterscup]

ugh

[BigSlick]

I feel conflicted and strangely proud as one Mercilus was one of the only bright spots on so many bad Illinois teams

[David]

at least jay kept the ball secure

[Guest]

Mercilus, Illinois boy.

He played on a pretty good one, though.

Of course, they didn't give the Illini credit - "Akron, OH native..."

 

I get the feeling that we'll start getting more respect from the media with Lovey there, though.

[Tim]

Man, no pass rush

[Guest]

They are just going to dink and dunk us.

[Guest]

Just dare them to go deep

[BigSlick]

I don't Osweiler is all that great but he's under zero pressure

[Guest]

How come they get off the field but we dont?

[BigSlick]

I'm not even mad, the Bears never touched Osweiler's jersey that entire drive - that's what happens
