    Damn, this defense is COOKING
  2. BigSlick
    That was absolutely an offsides but whatever I guess
  3. BigSlick
    Jesus. I guess we can’t run today
  4. BigSlick
    ??? I think you have better odds of getting points with a long try than a Hail Mary? bizarre
  5. BigSlick
    Regardless of what happens on this drive - I think it was a mistake to concede the drive with a minute and 3 timeouts and I’m glad Johnson made it a real drive.
  6. BigSlick
    Oh no…the way Jenkins fell was very…bad? Concussion?
  7. BigSlick
    I don’t know what’s going on with Fields and Mooney, but they are so off the same page that I would…target him less
  8. BigSlick
    Guess what - the Bears get a chance to get 2 drives back to back. The magic of deferring when you win a toss!
  9. BigSlick
    No? Not at all? They're playing the best defense in the league and he's been accurate today? No I don't concede anything, lmao
  10. BigSlick
    ? Yeah I'm not really sure what point you're making. This doesn't hurt my point at all?
  11. BigSlick
    There's no doubt to me that he's a starting quality NFL QB. He may even be above average, given where the league is right now with QB play. That unfortunately only factors in so much when you have the 1st overall pick and he's coming up on a contract year.
  12. BigSlick
    Wow. They really had to gut that one out. I'm very happy with how Kmet has developed
  13. BigSlick
    this is so embarrassing. for both teams
  14. BigSlick
    I'm kind of shocked they aren't doing more short passing - I suppose the idea is that they will most likely not sustain a drive and need to get chunk plays in order to score But its weird
  15. BigSlick
    Bad play Fields - it wasn't as egregious as previous long holds but against this team, you gotta get rid of it or run before then - also. No more fumbles dude.
  16. BigSlick
    Fields is putting it on the money, and they are airing it out, which is interesting for these conditions. You want Tonyan to come down with that but he's barely had any balls thrown his way and he's been pretty mediocre all year. My biggest takeaway so far is: God damn is DJ Moore amazing.
  17. BigSlick
    Well these conditions are not gonna help if the Bears want to see what they can do in the air, unfortunately
  18. BigSlick
    It's insane how bad Mitch Trubisky looks. The fact that some NFL executives thought this dude should be the 2nd overall pick....absolutely wild
  19. BigSlick
    I feel like the Universe is bending to make the final week of the season a 'win and in' game between the Bears and Packers. I don't know how much my heart can handle a repeat of '2013 Chris Conte Falls Down.'
  20. BigSlick
    I literally do not give a single horsefeathers if their second 1st round pick drops from 5th overall to 15th overall Maybe that makes me an irrational Bears homer, but I'll take an 8-9 season thats enjoyable to watch over a 5-12 season where they get slightly higher with their other pick
  21. BigSlick
    No one is saying he's bad, but lots of Bears fans and other pundits have been walking back their opinion that he's a generational talent (and I think a good amount of that is that people are feeling more confident in Fields and more hesitant to pull the trigger on drafting a QB)
  22. BigSlick
    Something Josh Lucas hammered on, and I think something NFL executives and scouts are keying on more lately is simply the amount of playing time and number of snaps mattering a whole lot more to how developed and ready a player is when they get to the pros. This is kind of intuitive stuff, but for some reason got lost in the shuffle in the last 10 years, and in the meantime people were pushing up QB development time up more and more. So guys were starting their rookie years after being drafted from college teams when they only started one year and stuff. It was madness. all this to say that it’s interesting that peoples expectations for Caleb Williams as a prospect has dropped when he’s played another year (good) faced more adversity (also good) and as far as I can tell, hasn’t revealed any new glaring issues people weren’t aware of before the year started
  23. BigSlick
    Dang, that sucks for Ngakoue, though he's been nothing more than A Guy all season. Don't know especially what our depth is at End but it does suck to lose a guy who's at least serviceable.
  24. BigSlick
    I’m in love with the idea of more assets. I wouldn’t say that if I didn’t think this team was pretty close to competitive. (This coming week will clarify that as well!) I’m completely on the fence with what the Bears should do, but I don’t think “being in love with more assets” is a bad strategy in the NFL! If the draft is a bit of a crapshoot, and I think we agree that it is, there’s nothing wrong with taking as many swings at the ball as you can get, especially when the roster is looking better and better.
  25. BigSlick
    If we're intent on getting MHJ, it would be silly to not trade down and get something from the teams looking for a QB. Even if it were a 6th rounder (it would be significantly more, of course). The Patriots are 100% going to draft a QB, so there's some capital to be gained by swapping with them.
