Thanksgiving Bears game at Lions & Matt Nagy's last game(?)
UMFan83 replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
Of course I get all my Bears news, along with coyote sightings in my neighborhood, on Patch -
Ouch. Really off night. Looks like they mailed this one in because they’ve been dominated consistently from tip off. Allowed to have an off night but I don’t think this team should be losing by 35+ points at home to the Pacers

I do wonder how bad ARob's injury is. You'd think he'd want to be out there playing to try to increase his FA value, but then again if you believed that playing more games would only hurt that value it makes sense to sit out.

Damning

Since the Bears suck and all, the most enjoyable thing to do is hate read Nagy press conferences I get that coaches are trained to spin, but "we'd be much better if we didn't lose the 2 games we almost won" is on another level
-
Can't remember if we discussed this but how transparent was Pace's attempt to have Romo speak publicly on his behalf yesterday? Romo was saying stuff about building a talented offensive core despite it's struggles. Seems like Pace is trying to distance himself from Nagy at this point for self-preservation.

I don't mean just getting him the ball in the run game. You had 1 1/2 capable WRs, throw the ball to the backs out of the backfield. Do something to get the ball in playmakers hands. Not just yesterday, but in general. Oh like throw a RB screen? Sorry, they're still working that into the playbook I think. That comes in Year 5. They aren't ready for that just yet

Huge help for Cincinnati, Notre Dame and 2 loss Alabama. Keeps Oklahoma State/Oklahoma winner alive too but would need chaos. But screw it lets have chaos: -Alabama loses to Auburn and Georgia -Cincinnati loses to Houston -Michigan beats OSU (lol) and then loses to Wisconsin -OK State beats OU and then loses to them next week in B12 championship game Who the heck besides Georgia and Notre Dame get in? Ohio State and Houston? Lol A 2-loss Iowa team? Possible, but they'd need to get into the Big Ten championship game of course which I believe they need some help to do. Even then their 2nd best win (with OSU/Mich being the 1st) would be at home against Penn State.

Thats pretty low on my list considering everything. Considering game situation I think overall Run/pass split was fine and it's not like Montgomery wasn't having success. I get the complaint but I also think the Bears ran way too much early on based on the opponent they are playing. Monty was playing well and we didn't need more running. I believe I also saw Herbert running back kicks as well. I still can't believe we played the worst pass D in the league (by yardage allowed) and Fields threw 7 passes in the first half. Yes there were at least 3 RPO's called (all runs) and yes he got sacked 1-2 more times on drop backs but still way too many called run plays, particularly on 1st down. I think every first down except 1 in the first half was a run.
-
Yep and now the reward is the Pacers (under. 500), Rockets (1-15 this year) and Magic though the schedule does pick up again afterwards for a bit (Miami, Charlotte, NYK, Brooklyn, Denver)

Ok I found the quote. Look at this jibberish. The more he talks in this answer the dumber he sounds

This doesn’t sound promising

Just listened to Nagy’s PC and wow he’s a bumbling idiot. His explanation for the timeout before the 2 point conversion was that there was all this celebrating going on plus he had to figure out what to do with the penalty etc. What NFL coach doesn’t know if they are going to go for 2 if they score a late go ahead touchdown? Even if they don’t, who lets celebrating a touchdown and figuring out how to enforce a penalty distract them so much from the next play that they have to call a timeout? Think about how many times you see a team score a late touchdown. When they pan over to the coach for his reaction you almost always see them holding up 1 or 2 fingers. Like 3 seconds after the TD is scored. But it trips up Nagy so much he wastes a valuable TO. Dude is just in way over his head.
-
Nagy’s once sterling record as Bears coach is down to 31-29 (including playoffs). Do we have to wait for him to go below .500 to fire him?
-
As bad as the Bears are, they are still far better than the Lions lions play hard every week. Tied the Steelers and now lost by 3 to the Browns. Gonna be hard for the Bears to continue to hold their heads high as the season is spiraling away
-
We’re going to be the Lions only win of the season
-
Well at least mother was here to see this in person
-
Sure would be nice to have 2 TOs for this drive instead of wasting them on indecisiveness on 4th down and a 2 point conversion
-
This was almost worse case scenario but luckily the Bears lost to keep the pressure on Nagy
-
-
This has so many effects, mainly: -Nagy benches Fields to save his job -“Bears would have been good if Dalton started all year. Let’s keep Nagy”
