    oh yea? synopsis, please Its literally like an 11 part article. Tough to quickly synopsis, but it probably has about 6+ named people providing quotes (none of them provide anyhting mind breaking, but pretty big names, Fencik, Mannely, Kreutz, Dungy) and several unnamed sources providing background info on Pace and Phillips. [highlight=yellow]Biggest bombshell is Phillips has privately discussed distancing himself from Football Ops fully.[/highlight] I read the highlighted part this morning as well, but dif article. However, I didnt know Dungy was connected to the Bears, at all. How is that so?

    To be fair, the Bears did have Johnson following Adams around the first time they played. Johnson was similarly good on the outside and got beat pretty handily in the slot. But IDC if you have to change your whole defense, you can't let DeVante Adams roam all over the field and face man coverage with Xavier Crawford, or LBs or a safety. If he beats Johnson (joke here) from the slot, then so be it. Get beat with your best on their best. yea. Its puzzling why the Bears didnt just play spy with Adams/Johnson.

    Nah, can't get past the paywall I paid 1.20 for a 12 week trial and found it worth the 1. 20. It was a deeply sourced article. oh yea? synopsis, please

    There's a theory that many of these calls are mobile/immobile related. Mobile QBs universally believe that they don't get the calls that the pocket guys get. Cam Newton has always complained about it, and still isn't getting the calls at his veteran age. But the mobile QBs not getting roughing call thing leads to the potential of racially motivated calls, which I'm sure the league isn't ready to admit. I wonder if there's a statistic for how many roughing calls each QB has gotten. I'd be interested to see how guys like Herbert, Allen, and Mayfield compare to Lamar, Kyler and others. Here you go: https://www.nflpenalties.com/roughing-the-passer-by-qb.php? Strangely though, while it is counting up 2021 penalties, none of the rookie QBs are being tracked. But you can see who is getting the higher percentage of calls Edit: I guess there is a minimum qualifier in there of 40 starts Double edit: Some reddit dude did some analysis of the numbers: this is a deeply flawed analysis. It inst "quarterback type x versus quarterback type Y", its "Chicago's QB vs GB's QB". ONLY MY TEAMS is in full effect! we always get hosed, Tommy

    There were several plays sunday night where the GB defender took 2-3 steps as Fields was releasing the ball and still hit/tackled him. I'm used to it by now, but it seems like the refs let opposing D's tee off on him

    *...."the phrase horsefeathers" Funny tho, DiNero
  7. minnesotacubsfan
    yea, that was above and beyond. even my wife (who hates all things sports and especially football) raised her head and eloquently made your point by saying something like "this is why I hate football, these announcers sound like they live in Green Bay. Aaron Rodgers is a lying piece of horsefeathers" For the record, whenever anyone has "horsefeathers" in a quote, I like to really imagine the person (your wife in this case) actually using the word horsefeathers. Makes every post funnier. I'll introduce "horsefeathers" to her tonight

    its like a balloon and a buffalo, but not a balloon shaped like a buffalo

    It's funny how the minute Nagy rids himself of Mitch, his team REALLY starts to suck. They suck at everything even if they were gift wrapped Fields Maybe Mitch actually hid more of Nagys faults then we gave him credit for
  11. minnesotacubsfan
    Fields Smith Johnson Mooney Quinn Mack Lotta holes after that
  12. minnesotacubsfan
    I mean, it's not like Nagy hasn't done this before
  13. minnesotacubsfan
    Why? Normal people know this, it shouldn't be that hard to figure it out when you have a few yards or less to get
  14. minnesotacubsfan
    horsefeathers the foam cheese heads, you're killing our planet

    Chris Collingsworth doesn't believe a coach can do anything to have a winning year, winning and losing seasons are completely out of their control
  16. minnesotacubsfan
    It's almost as if the refs felt not going for it on 4th could only result in bad things for Chicago, so they called Vildor on an iffy-at-best out of bounds. I applaud them
  17. minnesotacubsfan
    Jesus
  18. minnesotacubsfan
    Let that stand

    Isn’t Lazor calling the plays? I thought so too. Maybe it's just the system. Fire them all
  20. minnesotacubsfan
    I agree he won't be back or hasn't been good enough to pine over, but the Bears D hasn't been bad with a terrible secondary. Clearly Desai has a future in the league. By what measure? They're bottom 1/2 of the league
  21. minnesotacubsfan
    A little higher Fields
  22. minnesotacubsfan
    Ugh
  23. minnesotacubsfan
    I'd love to see the Bears punch back with a TD first 2nd half series, they'll need it
  24. minnesotacubsfan
    They went into a straight zone D. I'm just not convinced about Desai
  25. minnesotacubsfan
    I don't understand the zone D that series, I smell blood go after Rodgers
