  1. well hopefully, that was our worst play-calling game of the season and its only up from here. But I don't think our schedule gets any easier with the Saints, Chargers and Vikings coming up.
  2. It wasn't about just running it more. Many of the pass plays that were called were of basically the same concept. Look 10 yards down the field. If that pass isn't available, force it anyway or dump it. There was no attempt to spread the field in the entire first half. The safeties were leaning forward on every play call because every play that was called was in front of them. You brag about having all of this amazing speed (Cohen, Gabriel, Patterson) and you do absolutely nothing with it. Maybe the coach knows more about Trubisky than we do, and that spreading the field is just not an option with this QB. If that's the case, it's going to be a long season. I'm not nearly enough of an expert to assign an exact percentage live, but I'm pretty sure that not going down the field wasn't playcalling but rather a combination of the offensive line not giving him any time and Trubisky panicking and checking down too early. how good is GB's Dline anticipated to be? Was last night a harbinger of our Olines season ahead, or GB's Dline?
  3. In a weird way, Trubisky flaming out spectacularly might be a better outcome than a slight improvement and an ill advised 100 million dollar contract. thats not weird, thats definitive. weird, however, is exactly what we'll get: a slight improvement and a huge contract to Mitch
  4. this is the hardest thing for me to reconcile, that in a team sport one player, one position can absolutely make or break a team
  5. The offense looked so pedestrian. I felt like the offensive pass interference by Gabriel was [expletive], but as a whole Nagy and the O never got horsefeathers going. How much of it was lack of preseason reps? The next 4 games will be tough
  6. I think thats the first one I've heard him do
  7. beat the hell outta the cheesey people please
  8. By "years", I assume you mean the past 2 only. Because three years ago they were in the NFCCC and won the division 5 of the previous 6 years. From a lofty perch (10-6) three years ago to fewer wins in subsequent years. What term should I use to describe such fortitude?
  9. that would be nice. I'm expecting a 4 pitch k 6 pitch k. man was I wrong
  10. that would be nice. I'm expecting a 4 pitch k
  11. I'm not sure why we are excited about a guy who hasn't seen ml pitching in 4 months but ok. I fully expect Zo's performance tonight to be only a smidge above a dumpster fire.
  12. I can forget the past. The packers have been downward trending for years and the Bears exploded onto the scene last year. We start to walk away with the game mid 3rd quarter and win something like 27-13. Last year was painful and you can look at this as a redemption game, revenge, whatever you want. It won’t matter overall.
  13. Q? No he’s fine, was at 104 pitches and gave up hard contact for the 2nd out. Hiura
  14. gameday says he left the game with an injry (?)
  15. dont like having our runner on second being thrown out by the freaking catcher
  16. thank god the bottom 1/2 of the brewers line up is a bottomless void of no talent
  17. This is our chance to remind them that they are choking, petty gutless dogs. And horsefeathers Wisconsin
  18. its almost too bad we were crushing Andersons pitches early in the count- he got our of the 1st with only 15 pitches thrown
  19. Anderson is getting rocked. Super Cobs lineup
  20. I bet he'd be a riot to watch the game with
