Week 1 - 49ers at Bears, Noon CT, FOX

[Rex Buckingham]

Why was that not intentional grounding?

 

He was out of the pocket, but the receiver was like 5 yards away at best and it was way short of the LOS

[Bertz]

Tale of two halves

 

I wonder how much of the 1st half was just JF being nervous for the first game.

 

I think we're not giving enough credence to the weather impact. Things started getting a little better when the rain first started letting up midway through the 2nd IMO

Because he was out of the pocket

I thought the throw still had to get to the LOS tho? it sure didnt look like it

[minnesotacubsfan]

EDDDDIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CubinNY]

Defense has been very good all game.

[minnesotacubsfan]

gotta hand it to Eberflus and his staff, they made good adjustments at half and kept he team mentally in the game

 

 

fuuun

[mias_tisg]

Thanks Trey Lance, guy is a bust

[Bertz]

The rain getting going again right as the Bears take a 2-score lead is pretty clutch too

[Soul]

Happy but leave the door open like that, it’s usually trouble

[UMFan83]

Mitch update: Fields has more passing yards now

[Wilson A2000]

Well, Eberflus knows how to make second-half adjustments

[Tim]

Really have to thank the SF defense for all the penalties

[Bertz]

Given how many weapons they have, it's wild how many hits SF is letting Lance take.

[SpongeWorthy]

I’m stunned

[minnesotacubsfan]

BEAR DOWN CHICAGO BEARSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[gflore34]

Really have to thank the SF defense for all the penalties

 

Refreshingly, the Bears have avoided such stupidity, a definite plus.

[muntjack]

I can't believe they won this game.

[CubinNY]

Positive difference: no stupid penalties and no confusion on the sidelines resulting in stupid outcomes.

 

Great defense and bad conditions are winning.

[CubinNY]

They will need snorkel equipment before long.

[Derwood]

This rain is bonkers.

 

That said, I kinda love it. SAY NO TO A DOME

[CubinNY]

I’m guessing the Cubs game will be canceled

[17 Seconds]

what a fun ass half

[Bertz]

I’m guessing the Cubs game will be canceled

 

The radar looks pretty clean after another ~hour or so, I'd bet they get it in.

[Soul]

Cracking a beer. Cheers everyone!

 

I understand this is a surprise win, but I don’t think it’s that shocking because the Bears outplayed the 49ers in the second half. I think they might be over playing that hand a little bit.
