    Ref didn’t actually see a block in the back, instead he throws a flag because it looked like it might be one. What the horsefeathers kind of crap is that.
  2. Soul
    Yeah that was fun. Good drive
  3. Soul
    Free play, Mitch throws it short.

    They've lost 3 of their last 4 but against playoff, or likely playoff, teams. Bears have won 3 of 4 but against chumps. It'll take timely turnovers and another good game from Mitch.

    Best game plan / play calling of Chryst’s life. Honestly didn’t think he could pull off that kind of change up. JT held under 100 yards and the Badgers score 38. Stunning. Gophers were dumbfounded out there (great season for them by the way).
  6. Soul
    Ugh, the exact wrong way the Badgers wanted this game to start. Not good.
  7. Soul
    They finally brought pressure at the end and it worked. I don’t get it either.
  8. Soul
    They might lose out, but I’ll be an optimistic and say they go 1-3. I’ll give a little credit. Mitch made some great throws down the stretch.
  9. Soul
    COULD HE BE DUMBER?!?!

    I’m done with this iteration of the Bears, from Pace all the way down. It’s doubly painful that we’ll watch this for another entire season.
  11. Soul
    Yeah that’s just stupid.
  12. Soul
    They’re sleepwalking. You’re supposed to have turkey after the game.
  13. Soul
    Where’s the pressure?
  14. Soul
    Yeah, even though he had a rating in the 60's. I thought he looked as good as good as he has at any point in his career on Sunday. The INTs were whatever. Redzone INT can't happen, but it took a great play by the LB. The deep ball INTs never bother me. Sucked that there was a 50-yard return of it, but if you're going to throw picks, best time to do it is on a deep shot. I've seen criticism of the TD pass to Robinson for being short, but that was a layup pass (that he has missed before) and who cares that it was ugly, he scored. Even the RZ INT didn't bother me that much. Like, yea it sucks, but at this point, if Mitch is being aggressive and is throwing the ball past 10 yards past the LOS or more, I'm okay with some inevitable INT. Maybe I'm giving him an unfairly low bar to cleae, but that's it for me at this juncture. It's a low bar but that's the standard he could conceivably meet at this point. I hate the drops though. I'd like to see how he'd look without those.

    Third rounder, 74th overall, I think bust is a bit strong. He's serviceable. He's not a difference maker but nobody thought he would be. A better line probably changes things for him. Also would be helpful if the passing game was a threat to make it harder to stack against him. A couple times yesterday I felt like posting he's a bust. We'll see. I'm doubtful he'll be around for much longer.
  16. Soul
    The problem I have with that call is that I see the Packers do it all the time and it isn’t a penalty.
  17. Soul
    The player drafted would probably grade out 3rd round.
  18. Soul
    Uhh, stop targeting 82
  19. Soul
    You had to say it didn’t you.
  20. Soul
    LOL. Some random guy in FCS makes that catch 100%
  21. Soul
    Bears put together one decent drive but miss one too many FG’s and lose, which we discover upon waking up from our afternoon naps. 13-10 Giants.
  22. Soul
    No I don't think Pace should or will get another HC hire. I'd guess ownership will be conservative and give both guys another year at the helm. So if that's what you're factoring into the 3-3 years that makes sense, but it shouldn't take 2-3 years because Pace and Nagy probably shouldn't be back at this point, IMO. Even if they do an overhaul this offseason, the next group isn't going to try and patch things with the current roster. They'll have an opportunity to tear it down and start fresh, which makes the 2-3 years a possible 4.

    Well, Nagy talked at length about it, said he asked Mitch to be honest about how he was feeling and then Mitch said he was hurt. Mitch could hardly answer the questions straight and was avoiding all eye contact. I'm almost never one to go full conspiracy theory, but I'm going full hog wild. The PR team is trying to protect Nagy. I just can't figure out why Mitch is also falling on the sword for him. Absolutely best case is that Mitch did tweek something, but it was not an injury you'd pull a guy for a Nagy used that as a weak pretext to do so. Mitch didn't play that great (I'd probably put it as slightly better than the GB game), but it was not a "pull the starter" performance. Can the trainers / medical staff lie about it? Come back with an injury diagnosis that isn't true?
  24. Soul
    I don't buy it. Well, Nagy talked at length about it, said he asked Mitch to be honest about how he was feeling and then Mitch said he was hurt.

    Oy I should be doing what the rest of the country did about an hour ago but no, I’m an idiot.
