I think this has been mentioned already but holy moly I can hardly believe that through 8 games Justin Fields has a higher QBR than Aaron Rodgers

Both playing behind shoddy pass blocking with a terrible group of receivers. Although, with the addition of Claypool and activation of Harry, the Bears receiver room has suddenly improved. The big differentiator is Justin can move whereas, Rodgers is not quite as mobile anymore.

Plus the terrible conditions of game 1. And the purposefully kneecapped game plan against the packers. etc.

Jenkins and Boron also practiced today so we *might* have the full strength O-line back for Sunday.

 

Interesting timing on the Borom clearing concussion protocol. No practice in 2 weeks then practice in full today to be removed from injury report. I believe Riley Reiff has a 4.5Mil incentive that activates if he plays 10% of the team's snaps. He played all 79 offensive snaps last week, and if he played them all this week, he'd certainly have hit 10% as the Bears are on pace for 1054 snaps and this would have put him well over 120.

 

I read a tweet that Whitehair "will play". Assuming that means he'll start.

Little Dolphins primer for Sunday

 

 

Speed is a MF'er. Probably easier to defend if guys are slower and take longer to uncover. Also, the run action slows pass rushers down, but they seem to have a pretty good OL as well. But I wonder how much Tua being left-handed has to do with the success of that play? The direction he showed that play is to Tua's throwing side. I wonder if the defense is used to it being the other way around.

 

Either way, it's hard seeing the Bears having very much success against this offense. The DBs are the strength of the defense, especially now after losing the best 2 front 7 guys. But it's a lot to ask to keep up with Waddle and Hill. The pass rush is non-existent and I'd imagine the run action will still get some overzealous LBs to bite as they know the front 4 isn't that strong. I wonder if Miami is even dressing a punter this week?

Anyone know of a good streaming site for this one?

 

There is a guy on the chibears reddit that hosts a discord server that streams games... I haven't used it personally, but it's supposedly a good setup. There is a link on the first post of the game chat:

Velus Jones a healthy inactive. LOL. What a horrible draft pick. But to be fair, it's hard to predict a 25 year old WR who's breakout year came at 24, would be a bad pick.
