Win probability at 72%, so they still have a chance of not blowing it. Gotta keep it below 90

Did I just see a Velus Jones run up the gut called?

Hell yeah, Velus needs to be a full on RB

[Tryptamine]

Wow, that was some horrific defense.

[UMFan83]

Defense isn’t getting the job done today

johnson just falling down for no reason

If not for the weather, the Falcons have scored on every possession so far and this is not exactly a great offense.

That was a terrible call against Davis

[Tryptamine]

Nate Davis can't be a starter next year. 

[UMFan83]

Eberflus asking the Bears to blow it now so they can’t add the 95% blown games list

Definitely had nothing to do with the cold wet grass getting snowed on that was reported as being slippery outside the numbers between the 35s before the game

[SpongeWorthy]

i predict no scoring for about an hour by either team and then the bears will gag it starting in the mid 3rd quarter

FWIW, Fields has been strong in the straight dropback game. I hate that misdirection screen call on 1st down. I also hate the inside run on 2nd and 10. Getsy giveth and taketh away.

[Tryptamine]

This is totally going to be one of those games where Fields comes out electric and the rest of the game he'll put up like 60 passing yards and 3 points isn't it?

[Wilson A2000]

Fields looking great and Getsy finally calling some bootlegs

[Wilson A2000]

So Tonyan can catch

[SpongeWorthy]

the jags keep settling for field goals

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This is the best Fields has looked since Washington

[Tryptamine]

Once again the Bears on 3rd/4th and 1, they come up short. 

[Tryptamine]

I don't like this. I have a bad feeling that the Bears are going to run back everyone 2024. Eberflus, Getsy, Fields, etc.

This is better than Washington to me. That was a glorified 7-on-7 the way their DBs stunk so bad. This is actually a solid defense that hasn't had terrible coverage. He's throwing the ball on time, accurately, and with anticipation.

LOL. So conflicting ain't it?

[Wilson A2000]

Justin has had games close to this before. The issue is consistency game-to-game and that’s what separates average QBs from great ones. 

[Hairyducked Idiot]

imo, Eberflus' job was never in doubt, Getsy isn't actively harming anything, and Fields is just driving up his trade value. Drop 50 on 'em, Justin.

I f Eberflus is returning, you’re better off keeping the whole band together than trying to string it together piecemeal

You can make a case for everyone but Getsy. The only way I see Getsy coming back is if the Bears offense looks great next week, they somehow make the playoffs, and they win a game because of the offense.
