Bears Week 2 at Texans: SNF on NBC

[UMFan83]

We just can’t stop shooting ourselves in the foot. 
 

my take away from this game so far is that I see the potential of this team. I think it can be good….but we’re not there yet. Things just feel off. Very disjointed. But the flashes are promising.

Wow that 3rd and 1 play was idiotic

If this O-line could figure things out... they'd be very good.

3 3rd/4th and 1 attempts, all from the shotgun.

[BigSlick]

I’d bet almost any amount of money right now that the Texans will score on this drive 

[Wilson A2000]

There's a reason Seattle wasn’t sad to see Waldron go

[UMFan83]

Also I really think Roschon should be active in the future. Neither Swift or Herbert are power backs. I’m fine with passing on 3rd and 1.5, but it didn’t feel like running the ball was even an option based on all the issues we’ve had running the ball in short yardage situations. 

[Hairyducked Idiot]

The playcalling is fine. The playesr are getting beat by the other team's players

[Wilson A2000]

Why is one football a lot darker than the rest?

Another awful challenge. What is Flus doing?

[BigSlick]

horsefeathers. That was almost the coolest interception in the world 

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This is a less bad challenge than the previous bad challenge but it is a bad challenge.

[Tryptamine]

He held it against his mask. If that previous catch was a catch because he held against his shoulder, so should this one too.

Yes they sre getting best, but 3rd and short with a shotgun is a bad call. Having Kmet swing out 1:1 on Anderson is a bad call. Not using Kmet last week is amateurish. 

[UMFan83]

Feels like it would be an INT if they called it on the field but I feel pretty certain it won’t be overturned. I don’t hate this particular challenge though because it’s such a pivotal play, but it just makes the first challenge even more glaring 

[cwood218]

Right or wrong, I understand this challenge. But because or the way the challenge rules work, it just multiplies the stupidity of the first one.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Defense is really stepping up

[Derwood]

Second half D is real. Offense needs to get their shiit together

2.8 yards per play in game 1, 3.3 so far this game, 4 delay of games in less than 6 quarters—NFL average is one DOG every three games or so 

the operation is a mess

It had absolutely no chance of being overturned. Unless you think they were just desperate for rest, it’s an inexcusable challenge 

[Tryptamine]

Now please horsefeathers block for Caleb without false starts.

[UMFan83]

Gotta give Eberflus credit for defensive adjustments. I can’t analyze football well enough in realtime to tell you what he’s doing that’s working but it’s working. 

[BigSlick]

Great 3rd quarter by this Bears D

 

DO SOMETHJNG ON OFFENSE

[Irrelevant Dude]

These running plays are going nowhere.
