Bears week 3: Lovie returns noon on CBS
jersey cubs fan replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
George has shown a clear, “whatever didn’t work last just do the opposite next” approach. He’s gone D/O/D/O/D. If Eberflus fails, I would bet he takes an offensive head coach next. But while Trestman was sort of an out of the box guy who had been around a while and seen a lot, and Nagy was relatively fresh and studied under one guy, he’ll probably look for either a guy with a ton of OC experience or a former head coach next. And that guy will get 2-3 years before they go back to defense. They just don’t have the offensive infrastructure in place because they’ve never prioritized it. It is not an accident that the offense always sucks. This has been a defense first team and the couple times they strayed from that they quickly returned to the old model. -
Bears week 3: Lovie returns noon on CBS

Add it to the list of Bears offensive futility. I swear that since I first remember watching the Bears regularly (1994) we've had about 10-12 offensive seasons that would be on most teams bottom 5 offensive seasons ever. Change the players, change the coaches, change the FO and we just cant figure out how to have any sort of success offensively, particularly passing offense. Dating back to 1994 they’ve had a defensive minded head coach in all but 6 seasons. The rest have all been defensive first and the bulk of those were guys in their final job, with minimal prior head coaching success. You can say they’ve changed coaches and still same results, but those changes have rarely shown a concerted effort to prioritize offense. It’s not some weird hex, it’s organizational but philosophy. Defense first. Maybe hire an offensive coach on occasion but if that fails go right back to defense first. We are back in a defense first situation and have to pray they magically find a qb or have a Ron Turner situation where the OC cobbles together a good season once or twice. -
The 0-1-1 Texans look for their first win under Lovie Smith. The bears offense looks to show up for the first time under Eberflus, while the defense looks to bounce back from a very soft game against GB. If you don’t win this one, things are going to get very ugly, very quickly. Bears are 2.5 - 3 point favorites depending on where you look.

Thought this was game of thrones thread when I saw this post
-
It includes average route by RBs and maybe the bears have relatively few rb routes out in the flat since they have to stay in and help with pass protection. It’s also 2 games with barely any passing plays, probably incredibly pointless stat.

I wanted so bad to be the first one to say something like this but I was saving it for at least one more week Haha. Hey, he hasn’t been good, it’s only week 2 and I’d love to see him play better and succeed but I find myself searching for positives. Week 5 may have been a little aggressive but if there are plays that can be made - and he’s simply not progressing and pulling the trigger - another move is necessary. necessary? There is no necessity to bring in Seman. It may become necessary to move on from Fields after 2023, but this (week 5 of 2022) is a really stupid premise.
-
This is supposed to be a point in their favor? It all comes back to the point that Poles set Fields up to fail and it’s looking very much like Fields is going to make his boss’s plan come to fruition.
-
And we are all allowed to be annoyed at your annoyingly wrong take on what it takes to overturn a play in replay.
-
Very few elite qbs enter the league with this low of a level of talent around him
-
That’s not how replay works. They don’t draw lines and assume things. It has to be clear and that wasn’t clear. If the roles were reversed we’d be apoplectic that they overturned a call without irrefutable evidence. It probably was a touchdown, but barely and not clear on replay. If you run a play that leaves you open to that problem from an inch out, that’s on you. And even if they overturn that call the bears don’t win that game. Just freaking stop already.
-
the orange line on this drawing is well outside the end zone
-
The point is that it was called short on the field and replay rules have always been “clear and obvious evidence needed to overturn”. Based on the reviews I saw, I don’t think it’s clear and obvious at all. As said, the real issue was Nagy-ess play call, I do believe this staff is a step up and it was a mistake they'll learn from and we won't see it again. the real issue is the lack of talent on the line and receiver (not to mention every level of defense). If that’s a better play call they might cover the spread, but they weren’t winning.
-
Where is Mooney? I believe he’s included
-
Make it 99, this defense is soft and pathetic. Lol. I'll go double. I’m inclined to do that but want to confirm beforehand does it stand for Don’t Vacate Opponents Accretion? Because I definitely think this team is top ten in that.
-
Hey they were 7th after week 1. I’d hold off David and see how many more monsoons we play in before settling You're a horsefeathering moron lol Make it 99, this defense is soft and pathetic.
-
You can’t complain about that play not getting overturned. It was a terrible play call that failed. There’s something called setting yourself up for failure and that is how this game/season is going.
-
Got too much Shaheen in him. He’s got hands of stone. He’s maga?
-
To be fair there's an outrageous amount of GB holding going on out there, don't think there's been a run play were Jenkins hasn't been tugging a Bears jersey. They just showed a video complimenting the bears offensive line and every play was an uncalled hold
-
top 10? $100 you're on. i feel like i should suggest some injury protection but horsefeathers it lol You can just give me $90 now and we’ll call it even.
-
The parting of the Red Sea
-
That was Green Bay’s plan all along because they know the Bears can’t stop them They also can’t stop the pass
-
This offense sucks
-
I mean, he doesn’t have a line and they have no weapons, why would a coaching staff feel comfortable throwing downfield?
-
This defense sucks
-
I only watched the last couple months but no issues.
