  1. I like the scene on their flight, fellow is sleeping on Steve Martin, coughing, Martin, disgusted, looks over at John Candy who opens his eyes - "Six bucks and my right nut were not landing in Chicago..." Lions offensive is rolling, it'll probably be ugly, Bears do have a QB and some decent receivers, they'll score some points on the Lions. Maybe, quite a few points, while giving up quite a few.
  2. Watched the Jenkins film, really nice to see a Bears QB not be overwhelmed by the Vikings and their blitzes. They had their shot, they had a big advantage being the first time Caleb has faced them and they couldn't shake him. That's got bode well for the future. Just heard Caleb was 9-12, should have been 10-12, 2 TD's vs. the Vikings blitzes, not bad.
  3. The Bears will lose, probably by double digits, however, they'll move the ball on the Lions and score some points.
  4. Most definitely, almost any coach would have helped lead the Bears to a win in the games against the Commanders, Packers, Vikings and Patriots/Cardinals. It's not rocket surgery, as we've seen, it takes a special kind of ineptness to lose games a manner like the Bears.
  5. I'd take the Bears because of Caleb, the talent and potential are there, just needs an improvement in coaching. You fix that and I'll take my chances against Detroit, Green Bay and Minnesota.
  6. If the Bears had an OC tailoring the offense, as Brown seems to be doing, to Caleb' strengths from the start. He'd be kicking the horsefeathers out of Nix and Daniels, I don't have single doubt, with better coaching, Caleb will ultimately be the best QB out of Daniels, Nix and Maye. Now it's up to Bears to luck into the right coach.
  7. Most especially against Love and Darnold, their not all that great and can be had with pressure, maybe, someone should inform Eberflus.
  8. It's got to be a case of succeeding despite themselves, somehow the right coach has to fall in their laps. Their due diligence always results in failure, I don't it's possible to overcome that expect by sheer luck.
  9. Can someone who knows football more than I please explain the logic behind Eberflus' defensive approach in high leverage situations? I really do not understand rushing 4 + soft zone allowing easy completions, he did at Detroit last season, against the Packers, yesterday, etc. maybe, they're being aggressive and I can't see it.
  10. It's truly not possible, he's really stupid in that he doesn't learn from mistakes and try different approaches. It's the same old losing strategy and tactics time and again.
  11. Rest of the NFC North better hope the Bears don't bear/stumble their way into competent coaching. Caleb Williams has the goods to be the best, better than Love, McCarthy (eventually) and Goff. Once again Eberflus coaching not to lose results in just that - losing. There was no reason whatsoever to not go after Darnold and blitz the hell out of him. Instead it was more rush 4 and soft zone, if the Bears were coached by most anyone they'd be 7-4 or 8-3 right now. It's got to be apparent to Warren/Poles that Eberflus is not a good NFL HC.
  12. And Eberflus does nothing, right? He'll make certain to send that film to the NFL and lodge a complaint or whatever.
  13. The whole horsefeathers season they've let defenders mug Bears' receivers, just like last season Fields head-hunting. It's got to have something to do with weak-ass Eberflus.
  14. Don't get it either, Darnold is garbage and can be forced into mistakes with pressure, someone should tell Eberflus. Dude is coaching with no sense of urgency, maybe, he knows something we don't know, maybe his job is secure regardless.
  15. You mean wasting time and not running a couple of plays trying to make the FG attempt easier?
  16. Good, the Vikings have the edge the first time facing him, if they can't rattle him the first time that bodes well for the future.
  17. Not watching, appears the Vikings and their blitzes are not overwhelming Caleb? No Justin Fields-deer-in-the-headlights? If so, the biggest and best development from this game.
  18. The usual rush 4 and don't even try to dial up pressure I presume?
  19. It's highly possible, a team would have to try to hand the Bears a game for them to win and since none of those other teams are coached by Eberflus it's not happening.
  20. I'd like to think there's a chance things will improve with the next coaching hire but, given the Bears talent for always hiring the wrong guy, I don't know. They're literally going to have to get lucky.
  21. Was it because Santos has to kick a LD? If so, Eberflus doesn't learn does he?
  22. Maybe so, Caleb' development is the priority and winning is not, he'll be history in 7 games anyway.
  23. Was looking at NFL Tankathon, I don't expect the Bears to win again, they're current at 14. Have not checked the schedules, believe the Saints, Bengals, Dolphins and Bucs will all manage to win at least 5 games. So that moves the Bears up to 10, of the 9 teams ahead of them, just don't see any of them managing 5 wins.
  24. They can have right now honestly, there's no reason not to cut him and give playing time to Scott and Colin Johnson.
