  1. I have no idea how to feel about this. Like there's clearly no reason to rush him. But they can't just hold him out if he's healthy. There still seems to be some uncertainty if there's a real joint injury or more of a banged up scenario. There's no way he'll be completely healed and healthy, Jets pass rush is going to spend the day in Bears backfield, absolutely no reason to play him and expose his shoulder to further injury.
  2. Aaron Rodgers. That's exactly who I had in mind while posting.
  3. Lol suck it Zach Wilson In the world of sports, I think it's OK to be an alienating prick if you're playing well but, that combination doesn't work when the playing side of it is bad.
  4. If Siemian starts this Sunday will not surprise me at all if he draws as many roughing the passer calls as Fields has all season. He's not as mobile, he's going to hit on nearly every passing play (if I were him, I'd seriously consider padding up like a box lacrosse or hockey goalie) and, he'll treated more as a traditional drop back passer.
  5. Detroit has some semblance of a pass rush. We don't. In that case, we're toast. I don't know man, maybe we pull a Patriots-type game on one team and win. I'm just watching the Fields drives now, and assuming we don't stop the other team's O. It's pretty much been the case since we traded away Quinn/Roquan. Given that, you're probably right and we lose out. Well 3-14 would certainly guarantee a top 5 pick, most likely top 3. Top 3 probably means take your pick of the top defensive players - Anderson, Carter, Murphy, etc.
  6. Could you post a link of it? I'd like to see that play the way you are describing it Does not appear it would have been behind Mooney, appears it would have hit him closer to in stride than anything, too bad, may have gone for some major yardage.
  7. Schrodinger's QB Very good, Heisenberg QB Uncertainty is applicable as well.
  8. I'd consider letting him sit until January 1, let Siemian and Peterman get obliterated in the cold, I know cruel, but they're expendable. Also believe Eberflus should really tear into Getsy for stupidity in continuing to put already injured QB in harm's way. For horsefeathers's sake Eberflus put the NFL officiating on the spot, horsefeathers the fines, there should have been several flags thrown on the Bears' last offensive series. horsefeathering Mariotta trips over his own feet and that draws a flag, really?
  9. The cheap shot to head certainly didn't help, how can Eberflus just not go off and get in the officials' face? The horsefeathering clowns somehow manage to call a low hit roughing the passer yet keep the flags in the pockets on some obvious late QB hits.
  10. Is that a skill a coach has? lobbying officials is a skill yes This nonsense with the bad one-way officiating is getting out of hand, nearly every game these clowns are missing obvious calls. Doesn't take away from the terrible play calling - which is extraordinarily limited by a total and complete inability to pass block.
  11. That means something else is left open, of course, have to take advantage of what's left open.
  12. Shocking, the officials got it right, positively shocking, X-Mas in November.
  13. Requisite horsefeathers over the Bears call in queue.
  14. He's got a point, I know this happens all time in the NFL but, at least there's an attempt of subtlety, that was blatantly clear, #18 was never running a route, his sole purpose was to pick off as many defenders as possible.
  15. Lot of illini fans saying Michigan should have gotten flagged for a pick on that 4th down and looking at the replays they may be right. I’ll take the W. Looked ugly, illini are the second team in the last 2 seasons to physically dominate both Michigan lines, the other being Georgia. Illinois is legit, don’t care what their record says. Did not expect that close of game, thought Michigan was going to win quite handily nevertheless, Illini will roll over Northwestern next week to finish a very good 8-4. Would have been great to see the Illini in the Big Ten Championship vs. Michigan or OSU, they'd be far more competitive than Purdue. Michigan or OSU is going to score 50+ on Purdue in what's going to be a joke of a football game.
  16. This is the kind of an Illini team that's finally going to get Underwood past the second week of the tournament.
  17. In addition to perhaps, the worst punter in the Big Ten, if that clown could have managed a halfway decent punt not giving Michigan the ball at midfield they may have won.
  18. If the goal is to make sure the team loses but it not be Fields’ fault, I can’t think of much better options than playing a guy who is guaranteed to fumble a punt. Only issue is Atlanta may not need to punt. I was thinking more along the lines of kickoff returning but, I get your point.
  19. Might this be a game to give Velus Jones Jr. another shot at kick returning? It's an indoor game so, no atmospheric conditions to worry about, plus Herbert' on the IR, just a thought.
  20. Did not understand the logic of running the same team back out for 22-23, did not work the first time. This season, no Ball, a hobbled LaVine, what did the Bulls' front office expect was going to happen?
  21. Right now, QB runs have to be a larger part of the offense because Justin is behind a line that's incapable of consistent pass blocking. I think most of us get that, next season, behind what I would expect to be a much-improved line we'll see less of an emphasis on QB runs.

    NFL Week 10

    I saw it, first thought was it's not only the Bears who are victimized by what the NFL calls officiating, second thought, an official saw the fumble but, could not see an oblivious grab and pull of the facemask, really?
  23. I'm guessing that the Lions coaching was on that referee about Johnson using his hands to the face all game. That was right by the Lions sideline. He had just called a hands to the face on Johnson the play before that as well. So pretty safe assumption that the coaches saw Johnson using his hands high and said something to that ref. And the ref saw hands high, WR hit the ground, assumed he got him in the face, and threw the flag. Even if that's true, in general, if one is hit in the face their head, their helmet would certainly snap back or, if Johnson got him in the throat. I'd think Benson' hands would have been reaching for his throat - don't see that either. Just terrible, if I'm the Bears staff, I pounce on the officials before, during and after the Atlanta game, constantly be in their ears to call what they SEE not what the other team' sideline is telling them to call.
  24. One can say well, the Bears were up by 14 in the fourth, they should have put it away however, officiating almost literally handed the Lions a TD they should have never scored. Bears' defense is bad enough, don't need the officiating handing the opponents gifts when they actually make a good play.
  25. Maybe he got him in throat area? Appears his right cleat got caught in the turf when and it was worsened by Johnson pushing him, don't know if the flag was warranted. Does appear the offensive lineman got as close to the face as Johnson did, why not a flag there as well?
