    I think it best to assume they're (Johnson, Edwards and probably Gordon) effectively done, maybe, they make back the last few weeks. But I wouldn't count on it.
  2. gflore34
    I'd like to see them sell out and bring everyone, because giving the QB an ample amount of time is not effective. By selling out and bringing everyone you'll get burned, you'll also force mistakes from time to time which will almost never happen by just letting the QB sit in the pocket.

    I think any defense is going to suffer when 3 of it's best players are out. I know the Bears have a myriad of problems but, saying they lack the depth to replace perhaps, their 3 top players on defense. Is a problem unique to the Bears is total BS, there isn't a team in football that'll overcome such circumstances.

    Just a question: Is it possible the offense will improve along with better utilization of the TE's? Or, another question, because it hasn't happened instantaneously, is Loveland is a complete bust? I know we're Bears' fans and have waited long enough but, you have to know nothing good is going to come immediately. In fact I'm certain it's going to be at least 6-7 more weeks, maybe even longer, before we see some consistent good offense.

    Well, you know it's the Bears so Loveland forgot to play football. Which I'm certain would have happened to Warren if he were drafted by the Bears. I agree the numbers don't back it up, Warren had one big year compared to 3 years of production by Loveland. Not to mention last year season he had arguably one of the worst QB rooms in Michigan history and was not a focal point of the Michigan offense. And, when Michigan did throw the ball everyone knew he was target, yet, he still put up some good numbers.

    If, and, given the Bears injury history, this is a mountainous if, they can keep the OL together I think it'll drastically improve over what we've seen. Even last season, there was a point the OL was starting to come together then everyone got hurt. Look at Vikings last night, lost two OL and McCarthy was pressured and sacked, I think, six times by Falcons team not known for pressuring the QB. Even the Bears would have been able to generate pressure under such circumstances. I know the tendency is condemn everything as hopeless, still, there will be improvements.

    In looking, I guess, NFL teams do not or, are not allowed to practice today. Appears first practice is Wednesday maybe, that's for the best, I can't think Ben Johnson has cooled off and still isn't raging. At the very least, come Wednesday, start as early as permitted and I would grind their asses until they get the huddle, break and play off perfectly. No more pre-snap penalties, I would hold Caleb responsible, next one, they'll be grinding again.

    At this point I'd take winning a quarter or maybe, even a half of a quarter.
  9. gflore34
    Speculation by me, groin and hamstring injuries, it's the Bears, I think there's a very good chance they're done.
  10. gflore34
    I'm done with Swift and I hope Ben Johnson is as well, time to give Monangai a chance.
  11. gflore34
    Bears actually ran the ball well today, 5 ypc, it was that horsefeathers Swift fumbling the ball that was a kick to the balls. I've no doubt they were on their way to scoring another TD before that dipshit' fumble.
  12. gflore34
    Hey, I'm frustrated to, thus far, it's been a total horsefeathers show. I'm still not ready to write off Loveland, you can, but, I think he's a tad better than you think. And UMFan is correct Loveland was better overall to Warren in college, look at the numbers.
  13. gflore34
    Warren had one big year, a great year, but, Loveland dwarfed Warren in production in all other years. Let's just ignore that because he's started slowly and assume Loveland' a bust.
  14. gflore34
    Yeah, let's just write off Loveland because rookies starting slowly NEVER happens to anyone but Bears' rookies.
  15. gflore34
    Things will probably get worse before they better for the Bears although, I can't imagine what'll be worse than today. Is it Bears, I've confidence they'll find a way to go lower. I still think they'll be improvements on the offensive side of the ball and I'm not ready to write off Loveland and Burden as no talent busts. They were pretty horsefeathers good football players at the highest level. They didn't instantly forget to play football the moment they became Bears.
  16. gflore34
    Ironically, as I said above, I don't think Odeyingbo was that bad today, he got penetration and was held quite a bit.
  17. gflore34
    It's a groin injury, it's the Bears, I don't think it a stretch to assume he's done for the season. When, in the last 20 or so years have the Bears ever had a injured player successfully heal and come back in season? I'm sure it's happened, I think.
  18. gflore34
    I don't understand what the horsefeathers is going on, last year it was OL dropping like flies. This year it's any possibly remotely effective defensive player gone - Terrell Smith, Austin Booker, Jaylon Johnson and TJ Edwards - are all done for the season.
  19. gflore34
    And they had the advantage of playing a Bears defense that let WR's get open by 20+ yards. Even Caleb would have completed those easy TD throws.
  20. gflore34
    Yeah, this wasn't a case of Caleb being inaccurate, it was receivers dropping balls that hit them in the hands. It's more like 23-30, 270, 2/1.
  21. gflore34
    Odeyingbo was not the worst thing about the Bears defense today, he made penetration on several occasions almost getting to Goff while being held.
  22. gflore34
    Does the Bears' DC know what a blitz is, nothing, they're not even threatening to blitz.
  23. gflore34
    Him and Jaylon Johnson are so, so, done for the season, they're toast.
  24. gflore34
    As high as I was on Odunze he just drops too many balls.
  25. gflore34
    That was not a penalty, he got pushed into Hutchinson.
