Khalil Mack was a monster all day. Don't let anyone tell you he fell off or "needs to get more sacks" because of his contract. And you know who's name never got called tonight? Eddie Jackson. You know why? Tom Brady avoided him all night like the plague.

I guess I’ll take 4-1

 

Just need to go 5-6 the rest of the way to likely make the playoffs. Only loss so far is AFC team so helps with tiebreakers

That’s a good point on EJ. He only accidentally threw it his way at one point and nearly got a pick.

The Bears secondary has always been a strength this year

Is Quinn going to be invisible for the next 3 years until we cut bait when his dead cap is *only* 6m?

As long as he evens out their (opp offense) pass blocking so Mack can dial up 2-3 sacks a game, I'm ok with it

Normally I watch these games with a lot of emotion. I didn't have the heart for it last night, as Tom Brady always finds a way to kill your hopes and dreams.

 

Foles has had to go against two really great defenses in back to back weeks. Maybe all of that pressure won't be as intense in the coming weeks and he will have more time to throw. But, with losing Daniels, the line took a pretty big hit. Bars will need to be more ready next week than he was this week. Wonder if we would have won the game if Vita Vea didn't get hurt. That seemed to balance the scales after Daniels got hurt.

The Bears TDs this year have been:

 

1- Down 17 vs. Lions in 4th

2- Down 10 vs Lions at 3:03

3- Down 3 vs. Lions at 2:00

4- Middle of 1st quarter

5- Under 30 seconds left in 1st half vs. NYG

6- Down 13 under 2:00 in 1st half vs. ATL

7- Down 16 under vs. ATL 6:24 in game

8- Down 10 under vs. ATL 4:30 in game

9- Down 3 vs. ATL at 2:00

10- Under 2 minutes down 16 vs. IND

11- Under 2:00 in 1st half vs. TB

12- Under :41 in 1st half vs TB

 

Other than that first score vs. the Giants....literally every single TD the Bears have scored this year has been scored, if not in a true hurry-up offense, it's been scored when the offense has shown a sense of urgency. When the Bears stopped pushing the urgency in the drive that ended the 3rd and started the 4th quarter.....Foles got stripped sack for a 17 yard loss. The ability to be a competent NFL offense appears to be there. Nagy just has to keep the urgency. You got a competent QB that yelled at you when you put your foot on the break last night. Keep pushing the gas. Let them play ball. Stop being scared.

I've been disappointed, frustrated with him most of the season, last night he was the monster we expected. Don't know what was more significant Monster Mack or the flag for him being held, it's almost miraculous, I was just shocked.

That Fuller hit. Just special. You don't often see CBs that are such sound and willing tacklers. Hes a bad mutha.

I thought that flag was going to hold up, and I was just going to throw up my hands and say that’s it, can’t play defense anymore.

 

It was a perfect crushing hit. Fuller has turned into a great player for us.

In interesting news, the Colts can't stop Baker Mayfield. And the Panthers are 3-2 now and apparently an offensive juggernaut led by Mike Davis and Bear-killer, Teddy Bridgewater.

Meanwhile, the Bears sit 4-1 with 4 conference wins and the tiebreaker over the Bucs. Their playoff chances are better than anyone would have reasonably expected at this point.

I so screwed up. I was in Vegas that first Thursday of the football season to catch a flight. I had designs on dropping 50 on the Bears making the playoffs, and I got too lazy to go down to the Sports Book and make the bet. I don't even normally bet on sports, so I'm not so sure it was laziness. I like to talk myself out of making fool's bets. In this instance, I may be the fool.

Eddie was Mic'd up and definitely aware he was being avoided. Like half of this video is him talking about it, including him begging Mike Evans for them to throw his way.
