    It’s so frustrating how we can’t get a single short yardage run
  2. BigSlick
    Man this defense is so night and day with a healthy Kyler Gordon
  3. BigSlick
    Ouch. That was a bad one. That’s not one you can throw man

    The story of this game right now are the drops. if they lose it’s the drops. Caleb is playing a helluva game
  5. BigSlick
    STOP DROPPING THE horsefeathers BALL

    I guess all things even I’ll take them tied at half, but they honestly outplayed the Rams all half. Just needed to come back with more points.
  7. BigSlick
    God horsefeathers damnit we can’t get that 1 on the run when we really need it
  8. BigSlick
    3 drops in the first half already. Were the team playing like we’re cold and from LA.
  9. BigSlick
    LFG!!!!! get the lead boys

    God. Another huge 4th down decision. im not mad with whatever he decides… just execute.
  11. BigSlick
    We’re gonna need some breaks. Defense as porous as expected. Johnson should have taken the points when they were available.

    Are you serious Bears? Are you seriously going to do this to me again? if Rome isn’t healthy enough to make that catch, SIT HIM

    this was, very lowkey, the nadir of that season. certainly not a game they blew at the end like they did 5 or 6 other times but just complete and total offensive incompetence, caleb looked awful, Bears had every chance to win if they could put together half a drive. very depressing game to watch. at least i'm reasonably sure we wouldn't duplicate that result

    Making this switch in the midst of a playoff run when every player LG to RT has taken every single snap this season ... is kind of insane yes.

    I don't mind the Interception but the two flags at the end kind of bother me. Yeah, thats how the game is called often these days, but it just sucks when the corner is playing well, is in good position, is looking back, and they get flagged for PI. It's almost a cheat code to just throw it up in the air and 2/3 times you get something good happening. Its so, so hard to play defense in this league and they only make it harder.

    everything is coming together for a Super Bowl XX rematch. we just need the Bears win (twice more)
  17. BigSlick
    Ok, being a Bears fan is brutal, but it can’t compare to being a Bill fan, particularly not one who is old enough to remember those 90s Bills teams
  18. BigSlick
    Uhuhhh this is like completely insane right Thuney hasnt played there all season and while Benedet had issues he was at least serviceable. I hope this is just disinfo to throw LA off because it seems completely irresponsible to me
  19. BigSlick
    Are we? We got Bregman, cool. That's an upgrade at 3b. But we lost Kyle Tucker and will probably downgrade production from RF from 2025. That reads to me like a wash on our offense from 2025 to 2026. Are we improving? I can see the argument that we haven't declined in quality. Are we better than last year?
  20. BigSlick
    Your brain has been broken having been forced to watch Mitch Trubisky, Justin Fields, Jason Campbell, Brian Hoyer, Todd Collins, Chase Daniel, Matt Barkley, Nick Foles… this is not your fault. The Bears did this to you. However, there is a cure: to watch more Caleb Williams
  21. BigSlick
    If that's a serious offer, and it goes through the Indiana legislature, etc. etc., well, the Bears would be stupid not to take it. And Illinois shouldn't try to match it. It's a stupidly huge giveaway from the Indiana taxpayer to the McCaskey family.
  22. BigSlick
    uh holy horsefeathers
  23. BigSlick
    One of the things I appreciate about Caleb is he is a reminder that football is a game not a collection of statistics - football isn't baseball. You only get 17 discrete data points, and each throw within those data points has its own wide range of contexts all while there are 10 other players involved each having their own jobs to do and succeeding or failing within them and.... etc. Caleb is clearly a baller. The advanced stats have come a long way but they're always going to be highly imperfect, far more imperfect than baseball stats could ever be. He confounds them, they can't really capture how good he is. Football is a highly emotional, violent game. And the eye test is confirmation that Caleb is really goddamn good. And thats why no matter what they have a chance on Sunday.

    I'm not crazy that 4 years, 240, 60 mil AAV is a pretty good team deal right? Like, not a lot of years, no guarantees to really take on his decline years, lots of potential opt outs. 60 mil is a ton per year but because its so short its not a huge price tag overall. If I had heard the Cubs gave him that deal, I would have been ecstatic, is what I'm saying.
  25. BigSlick
    Wait, that was IT? 4 years 240? What a weird deal
