God our special teams is good. It's amazing how many missed opportunities we've had in this game. This game could easily be 17-0 or at least 10-0 but it's 7-7.
that was so far off target I wonder if a wrong route was run. That said, Cutler's gotta be able to hold off on the throw and look at where the ball is gonna go. It couldn't have been a better pass for that ATL player to catch.
A lot of things to love about the game so far. D-Line O-Line (at least pass protection) Special teams Cutler, mostly The playcalling has been above average on both sides of the ball as well. Don't like: O-Line (run blocking) That's about it right now.
I think my rule on that exact play (ball inside the opponent's own 30 yard line, ball sitting there with nothing but green grass to the end zone), if you are losing or tied, try to pick it up, if you are winning, fall on it.
Dammit, I know it's 6 points if you field it cleanly but worst case you have the ball at the 20 yard line. Dammit almost picked off. Watch now they'll complete the 3rd and long...
Because both Atlanta and Chicago finished 2nd in their divisions last year. This year the Bears play the 2nd place NFC East team at home and the 2nd play NFC South team on the road, while playing the entire NFC West and AFC North.
