  1. https://buffstreams.tv/watch-football not working for me, but duck duck go revealed: https://nflbite.com/game/chicago-bears-vs-green-bay-packers-live-stream/
  2. The Bears always keep their CBs on the same side of the field. Thus my concern about Adams abusing the Bears 4th best CB all game. yes. It makes a steady pass rush that much more important really. I wish they would allow Fuller to shadow Adams as they did with Tillman/Johnson (DET).
  3. Uhh, how worried should we be that Skrine has missed 3 games now with a concussion? very, at least for his career. Johnson's shoulder injury is also becoming concerning
  4. I'm guessing the point differential thing isn't a thing anymore, but that's something that needs to come back. Bring back incentive to beat the breaks off of teams! I thought they did away with the points system when they went to the 4 division conferences. That made it easier to schedule one division against another, allowing the head-to-head games to be more prominent.
  5. Do you think that I would have any sympathy for the Packers or any of their players after watching them go from Favre to Rodgers? Watching Rodgers crack jokes about "the best thing is beating the Bears right ol friend Favre??!!" I didn't break Bakhtiari's ACL, he did. It shouldn't matter; everyone knows who the better team is. But again, horsefeathers the packers, and horsefeathers you too.
  6. Hahahahaha KARMA BITCH Karma for what? Did he cause someone else to tear their ACL? Or are you talking about him doing the same thing that every single offensive lineman does in every single play? Weird take. All o-lineman laughingly talk about wanting to beating the piss out of their opponents? News to me. But whatever, ACLs are standard procedure nowadays. And it's not like they can't win w/o him, they did it earlier when he had rib issues. They really have no excuses. horsefeathers the packers
  7. Hahahahaha KARMA BITCH
  8. Well, hopefully this fires up Quinn, Mack, Hicks and Co https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/nbcsports/bears-eddie-jackson-hears-all-the-shots-packers-are-taking-at-them/2405779/
  9. Disagree. No QB plays better when blitzed, including the best at facing a blitz, Rodgers. The Bears need to blitz him to keep him at Jesus level. If they keep at a 4 man rush, Rodgers will play at a Holy Trinity level.
  10. sigh Everyone knows what's about to happen. The Bears are done for the season after this game as they really have no realistic chance at 1) beating GB or 2) having AZ beat a shell of a Rams team. But I guess, if I was to play devils advocate I would suggest this: The Bears can beat a HoF QB. In week 5, they beat Brady for the first time in history. In week 8 they took NO to OT. Both those games were under the steady guidance of Nick Foles, however, and with a D that was playing at a higher level than more recent trends. But for now, let's consider the possibility: 1) The offense has to play at its current high level. This means roll-outs, play action, 1/2 field reads, lots of Monty, and an O-line that has been dominating. Against Jax, it almost looked like Nagy was play calling again as those types of pass plays were not being featured. I don't think they can beat GB that way. 2) Pagano can't be (as Raw calls him) a bitch. It's time to gamble, Chucky, and BLITZ. The D HAS to get pressure on Rodgers. He is already playing at an otherworldly level, so don't help him by giving him all day to sit in the pocket. They HAVE to hit Rodgers, they HAVE to sack him, they HAVE to knock him around. And, as importantly, the Bears need Johnson back. If the Bears do those two things, I think they can make a game of this. Mitch will always throw 2-3 passes that we all clench our teeth at, but lately, the offense has been playing at such a level it hasn't killed the team. And as mentioned above, the Bears are playing HoF QBs well this year. While GB has a tight D, both TB and NO's Ds were better. If I squint real hard...maybe?
  11. Devil's Advocate Post: 2020: Yu Darvish - 76 IP, 2.01 ERA Zach Davies - 69.1 IP, 2.73 ERA 2019-2020: Yu Darvish - 254.2 IP, 3.39 ERA Zach Davies - 229 IP, 3.30 ERA 2018-2020: Yu Darvish - 294.2 IP, 3.60 ERA Zach Davies - 295 IP, 3.60 ERA 2017-2020: Yu Darvish - 481.1 IP, 3.70 ERA Zach Davies - 486.1 IP, 3.74 ERA I don't actually think Davies is anywhere near as good as Darvish, but it's kinda remarkable how similar the top line results are for both guys. They are however, is there any doubt Davies is going to be obliterated as a Cub? He's going from one the best pitcher' parks in baseball to Wrigley Field, at times, it can be pitcher' park but, on those days when the wind is blowing out and minimizing contact is in order not a good environment for Davies' to be successful. He's spent more time in Milwaukee fwiw, and pitched against a Cubs team full of power hitters in that time
  12. he's a nancy boy soft tosser and he's not kyle hendricks what's there not to get His numbers are goodish so :dontknow: YOU CANT BE A NANCY BOY SOFT TOSSER AND AND NOT BE KYLE HENDRICKS DUH I don't like the idea of replacing Darvish with Davies in the rotation, but overall Davies isn't a complete dumpster fire
  13. [quote name="Wilson A2000" “"This offseason' date=' I've been experiencing symptoms that have left me feeling drained and lethargic. I am working with doctors so I can better understand my condition. [/quote] well Jon, thats really just called "getting old"
  14. they shouldnt Why not? The Packers are playing the best football in the league right now and have always hammered the Bears with Rodgers. sure. but anytime you depend on a team outside of yourself, it can backfire
  15. i don't think our system (pre-trade) is really all that bad. does this trade improve it significantly or marginally? bye Yu! I miss you already
  16. Sounds like they feel confident that the Packers will take care of the Bears for them. they shouldnt
  17. eh, his yards, catches are all down (relatively). The one stat Graham is having a good year is TD's (8). its a small revival
  18. Robert Tonyan. In the interest of being fair to him, the Packers have been bringing him along since 2017, after the Lions discarded him. So good for him for hanging around until he got his chance. I just think he's a product of Rodgers just like many others, and will disappear if he leaves GB. Kind of sick of seeing him make big catch after big catch! Product of Rodgers? Hasn't Rodgers historically been unkind to his TEs? Was it Rodgers or McCarthys schemes? And Graham was aging by the time he signed with GB, he just happens to be having a late-career revival with Chicago
  19. I'd agree. I guess we'll see if he's really as level headed as Pace staked his career on and takes that kind of contract.
  20. hoping for a Rams win is probably the more likely scenario in which the bears get into the playoffs, but it wouldn't be the better scenario. The Bears have to prove their offense is really working. I thought they did that against the Vikings and turn around to see the Saints put up more points against their failing D. Its time for the Bears to beat a team at their apex, or get ready to trade up
  21. yup our only hope is to hurt Aaron Rodgers We tried that once, it didn't work Try harder
  22. But if Ten comes back tonight, and the Bears manage to upset them next week..... Bears Packers wild card matchup? yup our only hope is to hurt Aaron Rodgers
  23. The packers get away with so much horsefeathers
  24. But if Ten comes back tonight, and the Bears manage to upset them next week.....
