Down by contact

[Tryptamine]

NO misses a 29 yard field goal to go up 3-0 on Carolina.

Down by contact. It got ripped after his knee hit.

Holy hell Fields

[UMFan83]

Do we criticize Fields for making that dangerous throw or praise him for throwing a dart where Mooney could get it?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I've frequently criticized Fields for not hitting tight windows, but that was downright Cutlerian. He did it there.

I'll credit him for that one. Good QBs do that a lot.

If it was anything but a perfect throw, it would have ended badly, but it was a perfect throw so I guess we just be happy about it.

[UMFan83]

I know they were blitzing a ton but pass blocking has been rough today

[Tryptamine]

Bryce Young is hard struggling so far. 1-5 with a pick.

[Tryptamine]

Apparently Jaylon is just going to get a million interceptions from here on out.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

OK it's kinda fun being good enough to expose what frauds the Lions are

[BigSlick]

It’s wild how bad the Lions have played against the Bears so far this year

The Bears need to find a way to win this game now - I know they hate to win in decisive fashion but please figure it out 

[Tryptamine]

7-0 Saints

Fields is running too much. Doing a great job when he does but he’s already grimacing and already fumbled

He was ruled down

[Tryptamine]

That was a really bad 3rd down play call.

[minnesotacubsfan]

Why those two plays

[BigSlick]

What….what the hell was that 4th and 1 call?

[Tryptamine]

Well that was terrible and momentum given right back to Detroit.

Can’t decide it if i hate it because it didn’t work or because it was a long developing pitch to a WR. I think they were too far for a sneak so I don’t think it caught the Lions as off guard as it should have

I don’t mind the first one. They were in 4 down territory and it was almost certainly going to make it a 4th and short. 

[BigSlick]

This is how bad teams lose

 

a normal average team is up 17-0 by now and not letting the Lions hang around 

[Tryptamine]

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Every time a short yardage play doesn't work, people hate the playcall. Runs up the gut are too predictable.  Outside runs are obviously stupid.

It's fun watching Carolina fans go through the stages of grief of QB busting.
