[Rex Buckingham]

Tremaine Edmunds constantly seeing the ball fly right over/past him

Just absolutely horsefeathers baffled why the secondary plays so damn far off the line on 3rd down. It just makes no sense.

Because nobody can get near the qb, until now 

[UMFan83]

3rd and 18, 3rd and 10, 3rd and 14. What a team

[Derwood]

Hey guys, I don't think this zone defense where the defenders stand in place and don't even drift towards receivers is working

[Hairyducked Idiot]

He was visibly offside before they snapped it, you could even see it on tv

[Rex Buckingham]

And they finally get a sack to keep points off the board... but Sweat lined up offside

[Thurman Merman]

Somebody please find me the website where I can verify that the bears give up 100% of their third and longs against.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Small things, but what's the point of taking a knee in the end zone with 4 seconds left?  If they run it out, the worst that can happen is they fumble and turn the ball over with no time on the clock.  There is no reason not to try running that kick back, no matter how unlikely it is for a kickoff return TD.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Just another miserable first half.

Caleb Williams only had like two third downs where he could have done anything and he bizarrely refused to throw the football on both of them. I hate it.

[BigSlick]

Definitely feeling justified in not watching this one. Is Caleb going to set a franchise record for sacks taken in a season? I'm not sure I know what it is and it could be something ludicrous like Randall Cunningham's rookie season

 

edit: oh lmao, he's already set it with 3.5 games to go! amazing

Bears keep losing, but so does every other bad team.  They're gonna end up with like the 8th pick, even after this miserably bad season where it feels like the should be drafting 3rd or 4th.

[Mark Priors Calves]

These games are so bad that they're leaving me absolutely hopeless that things will turn around while Caleb is under his rookie contract. 

[BigSlick]

the good news is that once you have secured a good QB, every season can be the turnaround season 

but Caleb's gotta get better, of course, and he's got some bad habits already he'll have to unlearn

[UMFan83]

3rd straight game the Bears have failed to score in the 1st half. Great preparation

I still believe in Caleb but man he has more developing to do than I thought. Either that or he is regressing due to the Bears being the Bears. 

no idea why these high 1st round QBs keep allowing the Bears to draft them

[Irrelevant Dude]

The "Thomas Brown as a serious head coach candidate" train left the station and immediately went off the rails.

At least we can narrow down our prospective coaching list. Brown is out.

im actually rooting for them to lose 11 straight games and end up with the 9th pick at this point, that shouldnt even be possible i just want to marinate in that

[Derwood]

Caleb is Justin Fields-ing his way through the latter half of the season. He takes every snap assuming he's going to get mauled immediately, so he's no longer going through his progressions and throwing with confidence. Every completion is on a broken play

[Wilson A2000]

 

[Rex Buckingham]

Walker is playing well 

[Brian707]

Wow a stop on 3rd and double digits 

[Hairyducked Idiot]

You can turn things around quickly in the NFL, but that would require doing things differently than what got you to this point.

[Wilson A2000]

Wow the DE is past Kiran so ridiculously fast nearly every play
