  1. I know this is too optimistic after one win especially after I spent half the game bitching and suggesting we fire the OC but the schedule sets up really nice to go 6-3 or dare I say it 7-2. But after that it turns pretty brutal. In fact, for the Bears to have a hope of playing meaningful games late into the season they should probably on themselves a favor and get through the first 9 at 6-3 or better. Carolina, Jacksonville (London), bye, at Washington, at Arizona, New England. Get there at 6-3 and your 8 remaining games are the 6 divisional games, at San Francisco and home vs Seattle.
  2. Yep exactly what I was thinking. The fact that these teams have to play a freaking doubleheader and then turn around and play a best of 3 series the very next day suggests that whoever wins the first game is going to lay down for the second one. Screw integrity of the game crap, that’s an extremely unique position to be in and you can’t destroy your postseason hopes for the sake of giving the Diamondbacks a fair shot. Crazier things have happened but a split seems pretty likely
  3. This is not a brag thing or anything, I’m just legitimately curious if Kyle’s “no elite punters” position has changed? Definitely just one game but he had a legitimate impact on today’s win Edit: Relevant tweet:
  4. Ahh yes I remember the fun arguments about who was at fault for Fields’ snap fumbles
  5. Well it took 28 innings but the Reds finally scored in this series. Funny that the Cubs started the 10th by picking off the extra runner, only to give up 2 runs
  6. Man that was awesome. I can’t stress enough how important it was to win that game. You cannot blow a 2 score 4th quarter lead at home to go to 1-3. Instead, we saw the offense come alive and Caleb take some major steps forward as he legitimately led the Bears to victory today. Obviously Swift making a major leap today is huge too but the way Caleb looked so incredibly poised in the pocket in the 2nd half was awesome.
  7. Holy crap I enjoyed football!
  8. Stafford about to hurt us. I hope I’m wrong
  9. Ok if they don’t get this we’re gonna have a terrifying situation where the Rams will have 1:05ish left to score a TD and win I like aggression but not in favor of getting cute and putting it in the air
  10. Line is stepping up and RBs are finding holes. Good stuff
  11. Before every snap I’m watching the line thinking “please don’t jump”
  12. Alright. Need about 3 first downs
  13. Obviously the offense has looked really solid in the 2nd half and I’m very encouraged but we have to figure out why we can’t get our WRs involved more. Moore, Allen and Rome have combined for 7 catches for 51 yards
  14. ok the defense that hasn’t forced a punt all day now has to force the Rams to not score a TD. Also: punt god!
  15. What the horsefeathers are you doing Kmet? These penalties are simply unacceptable
  16. Bears defense determined to not let the Bears have any sort of easy win. Yikes
  17. Bet the Rams wish they went for the XP last time
  18. Oh man, he’s growing right in front of our eyes!
  19. LOVE seeing the poise in the pocket. He looks calm and collected out there and of course the line messes it up with yet another pre-snap penalty. Get it together guys
  20. At least they still have the lead for now. Offense cannot go 3 and out here
  21. I’m not a football savant so I can’t tell you exactly how it’s happening but definitely looks like Eberflus is getting outcoachded. Hoped we might see some adjustments at halftime. If there was, they aren’t working either
  22. Solid way to kill momentum by the Bears defense
  23. Well they were still at the 20 when I said that lol. Now it’s clearly the most impressive drive of the season
  24. NOW THAT is what a competent offense looks like. Extremely impressive
