    78 pitches thru 2 innings. Is that bad?

    NFL Week 5

    Umm. The Cubs are playing today, so there is still emotional investment of some sort on the Bears bye week. I still yell at the tv's because of my fantasy teams, also.

    I actually like Rea as the game one starter. Milwaukee will be going with their best (Peralta) in game one. Rea has been pretty good lately. Then maybe the advantage moves to the Cubs for the rest of the series with Boyd going ab against Milwaukee's 2nd best. I'd like to think Taillon gets a start before Imanaga at this point, too. So Rea, Boyd, Taillon, Imanaga and Boyd again if needed.

    NFL Week 5

    BigbadB posted a topic in Other Sports

    I do like that 4th down plays are becoming more of a thing, but the Rams going for the win last night in OT seemed like the wrong call to me. I suppose the tying field goal with 2 1/2 minutes left seems like a bunt to try to get an extra run, but flat out losing the game going for it on 4th and 1 when you can at least get a tie and hope for a defensive turnover or missed field goal on the next series seems way better than what they did. I don't normally like to watch pressers, but I would have loved to watch the McVay press conference last night. He probably got barbecued for that decision.

    Nice draw in game one. On the road against the lowly Florida Panthers. At least Fla will be without a couple of their stars.

    Maxx Crosby can make anyone look bad. I'm not going to say Trapilo outplayed him, but second half Crosby was not as good as first half Crosby. Did he wear himself out a bit in the first half? Is it easier to block Crosby after he's played a half already and you are coming in fresh? Did Ben scheme more blocking support against Crosby in the second half? Why did Benedet get the starting nod against the Raiders? Was it the plan all along to rotate the 3 healthy T's to try to get the best out of all of them against a tough pass rush?

    My observations of this game and this thread....... 1. Why is that Miller dude a reliever? If that guy can consistently hit 100 MPH and have that great of a slider, how is he not in the rotation? 2. I'm bunting Happ in that situation with a 1 run lead with the shadows causing problems for hitters. Not a fan of bunting in general, but in this instance....... 3. I don't remember how I did in the NSBB popular poster contest, but it's probably because I was too busy cutting up my Blockbuster Video membership card or being distracted by helicopters flying over my house looking for a missing child. (You are welcome, IMB and Goony!)

    I'm pretty sure I heard the announcers mention that Trapilo was in to replace Jones late in the 2nd quarter.

    I thought Ben Johnson did a marvelous job of clock management in that final series. The Bears still had 33 seconds and 2 time outs at their disposal if that kick isn't blocked. That's more than enough time to get back in field goal range. I've seen teams get in field goal range with no time outs. Caleb has been pretty good in two minute drills. Eberflus wouldn't have had any time outs left if he was coaching.
  13. BigbadB
    The Ravens/Chiefs game didn't bother posting down/yardage graphics most of the game. I had the Bears sound on, but never had a clue what down it was in that game. Don't know if they were on CBS or Fox, but the graphics were ass. Oh wait, it was also CBS because that was the game of the week everywhere except Chicago and Las Vegas.
  14. BigbadB
    All this concern about Rome, yet we don't even care about the welfare of Roy Firestone?
  15. BigbadB
    Of note, When Ben tried to give Caleb a special moment in the locker room, Caleb wanted none of it. He brushed it off. He's growing into a big boy before our very eyes.

    I remember bashing every Hoerner trade scenario preseason. A lot of people wanted him traded.

    This team is limping into the playoffs. And by limping, create yourself a visual of the men coming back to camp after battle with limbs missing, bloody bandages around their heads, limping and heads hung low. We'll get 'em next time, gents! Only the Cubs can make a 90 win team unenjoyable. Well, that might not be true, but it's hard to like the product on the field right now. Maybe they can change the "feels" next week. We can only hope.

    I didn't have the sound on the Eagles game, but I was pretty surprised that AJ Brown's TD catch wasn't called back on offensive pass interference. He totally appeared to push off to gain the separation he got for that catch.
  19. BigbadB
    That will get fixed next week. He'll look like 2024 Saquon on Sunday.
  20. BigbadB
    I certainly feel better. But, I'm also tempering expectations. Caleb will have to throw the ball a lot all season long, because this defense looks really bad.
  21. BigbadB
    This. And you really need two guys that rotate and complement each other. The Bears currently have neither. Swift is a good 3rd down back. Monty wanted out and you can't blame him, but I also didn't want them breaking the bank to keep him. He wasn't good enough for a big contract. There have been plenty of options to improve the RB room and it's been ignored or poor choices made.
  22. BigbadB
    Trevon Diggs has been added to the to the injury report as questionable, which is typically a bad sign for playing. Cowboys are already down a man in their defensive backfield with Bland being out for Sunday.
  23. BigbadB
    Caleb has to start being unafraid to hit those receivers breaking out of tight coverage rather than waiting until they have a 10 yard cushion on the nearest defender. Waiting for those extremely open guys is why he's guilty of holding the ball too long on most plays. That's when he will turn the corner in this league. He has the guys who can get open in a hurry and those same guys can do a lot after the catch. Hell, Caleb is practicing against this same defense that looks so bad on game day. That should be a confidence builder in and of itself.
  24. BigbadB
    They are already missing multiple defenders. Stevenson has been the worst CB in the NFL so far this year, allowing a perfect 158.3 QB rating. Who is protecting against Lamb and Perkins? Did Not Practice Thursday: TJ Edwards Jaylon Johnson Kyler Gordon Jaylon Jones Kiran Amegadjie D'Marco Jackson Limited Practice Grady Jarrett
  25. BigbadB
    Need to add Monangai to that list. While I have no doubt Lamb/Perkins/Fergusen will destroy our secondary, the Bears know Eberflus' defense and they should be able to score on his defense as well. I'm probably not going to be able to watch this one til much later, Can't believe someone schedules a Celebration of Life on a Sunday during football season. I've already given the POA a piece of my mind for scheduling the annual meeting on a Sunday, but they did say I was welcome to bring a tv to the festivities. I was going to, but after last week's thrashing, I feel like I'll look like a complete idiot bringing a tv to an outdoor party on the lake for such a pathetic team. I'll just peak in on my phone and actually watch later. It's already a juggling act trying to smoke a pork butt for the annual meeting while leaving for a few hours for the Celebration of Life.
