Week 9: Bears @ Bengals noon on CBS

[bukie]

Oh right, Flacco can only throw it about 15 yards in the air.

[Geographyhater8888]

Too stressful. 

[SpongeWorthy]

[Geographyhater8888]

Go rookies.

I should be overjoyed but I’m a Bear fan so I’m still angry at that onside kick.

But holy hell Caleb made the huge throw when it counted and our 1st Rd pick made a play baby.

[Tryptamine]

God damn, the Bears had almost 600 yards on offense today. That's go to be damn near the record.

[bukie]

Oh right, I forgot I had to start Caleb in fantasy with Hurts on bye.

That ended up working out okay.

I started Odunze who somehow had 0 yards in a game with almost 600 yards.

44 points from Caleb today, that's not bad.*

They were holding Sweat and Dexter all horsefeathers day, wasn't even close, didn't face the pressure and with Chase/Higgins, of course, a big day.

[BigSlick]

I’m gonna be a bit told-you-so and ****** specifically about everyone being so impatient with Loveland: I always said be patient with him. Glad he’s paying dividends. 
 

zen-like patience. This is what we all need. 
 

(except with the defense and special teams lmao)

[gflore34]

I knew Caleb would give the Bears, at least, a chance at a GW FG.  Man, what a nice contrast to what we've experienced from past Bears' QB's.

[Tryptamine]

Bears will get a shot at another really bad defense in the Giants next week

That on side kick was kind of flukey. Dude was doing what he was supposed to do, the kick sucking obviously was not on his radar

[SpongeWorthy]

yeah that was kind of the greatest/luckiest onside kick of all time. it just completely died at ground level at 7 yards. i think he could do 100 onside kicks and get the ball to do that a handful of times at best

the defense on the other hand...i don't see how it gets better

[bukie]

Brisker needs to actually defend passes, rather than just line up hits after the catch.

[Tryptamine]

The Bears have now scored 215 points which puts them tied at 7th. 4 of the teams ahead of them have played 1 more game than the Bears. The Bills will likely pass the Bears after their game finishes. There's a very real chance the Bears finish this week top 5 or 6 in PPG.

[SpongeWorthy]

i thought archuleta's commentary was pretty deranged the whole game. spero dedes started the broadcast with calling caleb a "divisive" quarterback and then said later it was par for the course for #1 overall picks. does anyone even know what cam ward looks like?

It’s the biggest separating factor I can hang on to from previous QB failures.  He has made big plays in crunch time.

Old dogs new tricks I guess.  He just wants to hit.  He’s due for his annual concussion.

Cam Ward is looking like a legit disaster pick. He isn't even flashing potential.  He's 9 games into his rookie season and he's sitting on 5 TD and 6 INT. Bear fans were panicking with Caleb at 20 TD and 6 INT.

[BigSlick]

What a hell of a game by Monangai too

I have Chase in FF and didn’t do so well, considering what Flacco did. Also played a 7 pick SGP and because Rome couldn’t get 50 yards in receiving, I lost. Had 6 of 7. 25-1 odds. 

[gflore34]

Loveland' GW TD was the kind of nonsense BS we've seen happen to the Bears over and over.  Nice the shoe was on the other foot for a horsefeathers change.
