How in the horsefeathers do you lose Odell Beckham in the end zone on 4th and goal? Holy horsefeathers the Bears are making a crap load of mistakes in this one

 

He's the only target, everyone except the Bears are aware.

Let's all remember the bench Mitch for Daniel crowd. (not saying he's solely to blame for where this game is, but still)

If the Bears lose this how do you feel about the rest of the games?

 

vs LAR - Bears can win this and might but more likely than not they lose 8-5

vs GB - Should win but I think the last time a competitive Bears team beat the Packers in a game they needed to have was in 2010. I’ll pick win but don’t feel great about it. 9-5

At SF - Win. Better be 10-5

At MIN - could be for the division. I have a hard time seeing a win though it’s certainly possible. 10-6

 

Bears margin of error is a lot less if we can’t come back.

 

Edit: don’t mind me, I got some bad news this weekend and my pessimist side of me can’t be contained, nothing to see here

 

I don't think it ends up mattering too much. Split the Rams/Packers home stand, and win the 49ers game, and that should do it. The Vikings are at Patriots and at Seahwaks the next two weeks. They would need to win one of those, and their final three games (including one against the Bears) to grab the division. It's not impossible, but it's a very tough ask.

 

That's what was so big about beating the Vikings, it gave the Bears the cushion to lose one of these road games against the Lions/Giants/49ers. Everyone just assumed the Thanksgiving game was the one they were going to drop.

Yeah they need 2 more wins for sure. I am mostly concerned that we don’t win either of the LAR/GB games. We could win both but neither are gimmes even with the Packers playing like butt. The talk after this one will be if Mitch was healthy enough to play. If he was, he should have played. Have to drive a nail in the coffin of the Vikings then maybe you can rest him week 17.

The Packers certainly have had the Bears’ number but when you look at how they are struggling with the Cards today @ home, I can’t say they are a lock to win any of their games.

 

Not saying they won’t come back but this was supposed to be automatic. There’s no excuse to lose to that team at home.
