said he was going to throw for 4000 yards, said they were going to beat Green Bay. I used to like his confidence but now it just comes across as arrogance when you've done nothing but suck for 3 seasons

I don’t read that as arrogance. Feels like things he feels like he should say to project confidence when he is interviewed

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Random positive: I feel like the interior defensive line is winning more than they're losing today.

Love started 2-6, now 12-17 with a 132 QB rating. Another HOFer in GB

Nah, Atlanta can't cover anyone.  2 huge DPI calls that decent DBs knock the ball away on to keep drives alive.

HITS BABY

[SpongeWorthy]

I want the wheels to completely come off but not so early where you have to start fire selling assets putting us further behind the eight ball next year

Add in the wrinkle that the QB you want will go back to school before he's willing to be drafted by you.

What's this talk of drafting a QB?  We already have Bagent!

[Rex Buckingham]

a TD drive here followed by a defensive stop to set up a GW drive.  Who says no?

I wouldn’t mind seeing him start the second half of the season

We can make excuses about quality of competiton but 2 straight games with 130+ QB rating. Fields has faced plenty of bad defenses and done much worse

yep

Clean pass breakup from Kmet. "Sabotage mode" is the theme of the season

[UMFan83]

Well into the 4th quarter, Bears offense has 147 total yards 

[UK]

Even when they get good blocking and a good throw, they still screw it up.

[17 Seconds]

DJ is already completely checked out. Kmet just stole a catch from him and he didn't even care

I think he could be a "not actually good but capable of masquerading as a low-end starter for a while" guy.

[Rex Buckingham]

lol, we play the Chiefs next week

There must be some crazy level of incompetence when entering Halas Hall. It seems like veryones brain turns into mush

Kyle Orton-ish?

[Irrelevant Dude]

If two guys running the same route to the same spot is good, consider the Bears the best.

omg that's going to be *amazing*.  The only limiting factor is that once teams get ahead they stop throwing. If Mahomes kept the pedal down for a whole four quarters against this defense, he could throw for 700 yards.

[SpongeWorthy]

the lions OC has turned Goff from a pumpkin back into Cinderella 

a real franchise would be able to sell the next hot young offensive mind with a chance to draft the qb of his choosing in Chicago pretty gd easily

I think Orton had a better arm but basically yeah.

It's still possible they could also be 0-2.

[UMFan83]

Bears just need a 90 yard TD drive (61% of their total yardage from the first 3+ quarters), get another stop and then another TD drive to win!
