Misidentification of the 66-yard bomb he just caught, no doubt. :) Up 16-6 now. Should have this one locked up. It's probably our last W of the year unless the Saints bench people in Week 17. CBSsports said that he caught a -66 yard pass. Then it said Karsay hit a 97 yard FG. Good god that's a long FG
I love watching CBSsports.com screw up their NFL Live scoring. I'm watching the Carolina/TB game, and previously they said Steve Smith caught a pass for -66 yards, and then it said the Panthers went for it on 4th and 77 from the Panthers 3 yard line up 6 (bold move) and ran up the middle for a yard. Then they figured that out in time to say that Karsay kicked a 97 yard FG for the Panthers. Quite a nice kick.
I'm gonna guess, the Rams drive and score a TD, then don't convert the 2 point conversion. Bears get the ball with 4 minutes left, get 1-2 1st downs, punt it away with 1:30 left. Rams drive to the Bears 35 and miss a 52 yard FG as time expires.
I have no shame in saying, parts of me really hope they blow this 4th quarter lead. Maybe hearing Soldier Field boo the [expletive] out of this team, will say enough to the ownership to make a change Meh, and I understand that viewpoint and wouldn't argue it. It wouldn't be the worst result that could happen. I just prefer to see a win once in awhile and think a pathetic "lesser of two evils" victory would do nearly as much damage as a loss.
I still want the Bears to win because its the Bears and because we can't improve draft status or anything. What I want is for the Bears to win, but for it to be very close and barely gained. The type of win that gives you no good feelings afterwards
Do you think Ron Turner has any clue what "playing to your strengths" means. I'll tell you what it doesn't mean. Doing lots of end arounds and WR screens where dance around in the backfield and rely on the offensive line to block in order to gain yards. The O-line is the worst thing on a crappy offense, so naturally half the plays Turner calls rely on getting the ball in the backfield and making something happen with the holes your line creates (or doesn't create)
I don't know if this deserves a kudos, but it's interesting that for the first time maybe all year, the Bears haven't given up on the run all game despite it being really ineffective for the most part. They are finally starting to get some yards on it.
