Bears Week 3 at Colts: Sunday at noon on CBS

[UMFan83]

Not a great punt from the punt god…

[Hairyducked Idiot]

No matter how much fun it is to believe otherwise, there are no elite punters

[Cubs420psd]

That pass was honestly 10 yards from the nearest target.

 

Williams deep ball is terrible

This thread is exactly the same as a random game two years ago. It’s coaching and personnel decisions by upper management. 

[UMFan83]

Horrible penalty yikes

Nope. It's QB play.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Holy horsefeathers NZI on a punt 

[UMFan83]

Yikes. Everything is awful except the defense. What year is it?

I like the penalty because the Bears best chance of scoring is on defense

Why can’t it be both?

[We Got The Whole 9]

Bears D on their heels now 

[UMFan83]

I’m slowly slipping into “it might not be happening this year” mode. Had such high hopes. And I’m not saying it’s hopeless and they can’t improve, but mentally I’m going from “this team can do something” to “this looks like every other year, let’s look for bright spots”

Because Smith looked good with Waldron, Mahomes looks good with Nagy, and Minshew looks good with Getsy

Same, but I'm ok with it as long as Williams keeps improving, which he is.

[Rex Buckingham]

So Richardson's progress was stopped on the INT earlier, but that progress wasn't stopped?

[Tryptamine]

and that is somehow not whistled dead.

[Derwood]

How was that not whistled for forward progress?

[BigSlick]

This is what happens when you adamantly refuse to score for 3 quarters. Not mad at the D at all

Yes. Both calls were correct.

[UMFan83]

That’s 11 quarters with 1 total offensive TD

[Irrelevant Dude]

Yeah, I'm not sure forward progress was ever stopped.  Forward progress was created by the linemen continually pushing the pile forward.

Why does it apply in one case but not the other?

[Rex Buckingham]

Sermon was 100% stopped just as long as Richardson was

Because his forward progress wasn't stopped at the goal-line.  Richardson was clearly in the grasp.
