  1. At the end of the day, Ben Johnson clearly thinks it matters, so he’s playing he’s guys like it’s a do or die game. That’s fine. I don’t think it’s clearly one or the other. Maybe the worst thing would be to hedge and kinda try and sit some starters and not everyone. I worry about injuries because injuries occur in every single football game. I worry about our WR health and depth, I worry about our defensive backfield. I hope nobody gets hurt. I hope we pound them and get revenge and tune up our guys and secure the second seed. Let’s see what happens.
  2. Yeahhhhhh I think we definitely want to win on Sunday. as anxious as a Packers rematch makes me, it’s a MUCH better match up for us than any of the NFC West teams
  3. A thought I just had is we probably win this game if half of our players aren’t sick with the flu. interesting thing to think about is how hard they try to win next week. It’s not meaningless, a win could be the difference between the 2 and 3 seed, but at the same time we have some banged up players and if we’re gonna sit a handful of important players in a less-than-necessary game, you may as well just sit everyone important. I would hate to lose a player to injury in that game, but also… hmmm… it’s not so simple.
  4. I probably felt better about the team after the loss more than anything. They went blow for blow with one of the best teams in the NFC on the road and the offense and Caleb are legit. The defense is crap but that’s nothing new. re: Purdy, I get being frustrated with the love he was getting from Collinsworth over Caleb, it’s horsefeathers ridiculous. But at the same time, he is horsefeathers good. The disrespect he gets is pretty ridiculous at this point. He’s accurate as hell, he gives his receivers tremendous opportunity for YAC, he doesn’t take a lot of sacks. He’s had some injuries the last couple years but he’s a legit good Qb.
  5. what a game best i've ever felt after a loss football is redeemed. ben johnson has brought life back to the bears. i love it
  6. oh my god...... drops
  7. what a helluva time for Colston Loveland to have his first drop
  8. It's like the 2013 Bears, except the Offense is actually good and not just Cutler/McCown throwing balls up to Alshon Jeffery. Oh and they have an actually smart coach and not one of the dumbest to ever hold the position
  9. Actually.... thats far from the worst thing to happen. They are leaving us a lot of time to drive.
  10. Getting held to 3 points here is pretty much game, given how the defense has played
  11. daaaaaaamn i was really not feeling the go for it there but damn did that look nice
  12. SF D-Line is getting a lot of penetration...
  13. I really hate the new kick off rules
  14. Bears Offense: Gutsy, long drive to tie the game Bears Defense: Let's just give up 25 yards immediately
  15. I hope he’s enjoying the 2025 Bears, wherever he is
  16. I'm ok with the trade of having buttcheeks defense and an actual professional (good, even!) offense. I got what I wanted, I can't complain about it.
  17. That call is pretty crummy... I mean they kinda have to call it, but it really didn't influence the receiver or the play at all. Oh well.
  18. the Bears will probably lose but this game rocks already I love Caleb Williams
  19. lmao at Kyle Monangai trying to "evade" someone in open space (run them over)
  20. I expected the Bears to not have any pass rush but I didn't expect the run D to be total garbage
  21. Are these aware they don't need to throw a flag on every play? They can just not do it.
  22. Luther Burden is so cool. I also love that Calebs deep ball accuracy is coming together now.
  23. Bears D just ain't good, which is fine! but we need to be reminded of that from time to time
  24. please sir....a first down please....i'll do just about anything for a first down
  25. I am a bit disappointed that Bad First Drive Offense continues, Caleb had a lane when he recovered there and should have just got the first. But good lord, this feels like the first not-so-stressful game they've had in a year. It's nice to just watch them play football.
