  1. please don't let this thread turn into some tired watson/trubisky tit-for-tat
  2. mitch had brown wide open on that last play
  3. Instead we're losing by 11. Conservative game plan = closer losses but ones that have a higher probability of occurring. If you're gonna lose any way, should give Mitch more chances to learn something. I definitely don't think he should be slinging it all over the field but they made some very conservative playcalls in saints territory that led them to 3rd and longs and stalled drives. Incorrect. Closer games give you a higher probability of getting lucky against better teams. It increases the impact of variance. If, for example, you get a ball pop right into your defender's hands for an INT return, that has a bigger impact in a close game. Fun to watch or not, Fox-ball works when you have a crap team. Fox ball works when you have a defense and running game that can Do Things. Otherwise you're just the Browns. Besides, getting Trubisky reps running actual NFL passing concepts is more important than wins and losses
  4. we still might and the point of the game isn't to lose small. trubisky can learn to hand off in practice.
  5. who on earth is calling for that to be overturned, why are they examining the replay like the zapruder film while miller's career is ending on the field
  6. might be the last catch of miller's career that was awful
  7. let's call more slow developing runs off left tackle for -2 yards on first down
  8. does it occur to this fox crew to actually say what happened to long rather than just show him walking around with a club on his hand
  9. and the bears don't call straight drop backs very often either. can't let the other team bat a .1000 on getting pressure on every god damn non-boot/playaction/screen pass call which is what has been happening.
  10. I know this is what football is now but not having Barkley run out of the I formation seems like a waste of his talent.
  11. what clues can you glean from his gf's social media channels
  12. http://www.tmz.com/2017/10/25/ben-gordon-threatening-video-hospitalized/ whoops
  13. gauging interest in this series that drug cheat just went very deep
  14. markkanen is an extraordinary shooting talent so he'll at least be in the league for a long time health permitting
  15. Because of his age and health issues, I could easily see the Bears putting Fox out to pasture by offering him some cush consulting/FO role even if the team finishes slightly above .500. Anything below that and I don't see any risk of keeping him on either.
  16. lol that ban is weak af this board and bears threads in particular isn't exactly bursting at the seems. sulley's non sequitors are half the posts.
  17. he's not getting his job back
  18. come on, show the idiot on the field we deserve it for sticking this game out
  19. are we really gonna win a game with 3 total first downs
  20. at least it's hard for offensive starters to get hurt if they're never on the field
  21. Defenses are gonna sit on play action in passing downs
  22. ODonnell has been a weapon this year Now get a real kicker
  23. Can't have a run go for minus 6
  24. let mitch come out in attack mode to start the 2nd half and put em away they'll expect us to come out and sit on the ball
