  1. Also - we all know this is coming but just to say it out loud - Bears will be penalized on a shaky roughing call and the Packers will nail Caleb after the throw with no call, or in the head when he slides.
  2. Bears run game gets going, but Parsons & crew shuts down the pass game. Bears are game on D, keeping it close, but no pass rush finally lets Love throw a couple “prayers” that result in garbage PI’s or 50/50 completions. Packers 20 Bears 17. We’ll get them at Soldier Field.
  3. All things considered that’s not a bad report.
  4. It’s not about rivalry stuff at all. GB is objectively a better organization to play for, cold weather and all.
  5. You see the same thing I do. It can’t be luck. They probably practice it a lot. They seem to be always one-on-one coverage and the ball is under-thrown. It’s unlikely to be an INT if the receiver sells that the ball isn’t under-thrown and there’s a good chance of PI when the receiver suddenly comes back.
  6. And practicing his outrage rants in the mirror.
  7. Flus’ defense is terrible even accounting for no Parsons. Goff didn’t look like he needed to do anything but look down his first read all night. Zero pressure and I didn’t see any kind of adjustment by Flus to bring pressure through blitzing. Yeah there were turnovers but even so, Dallas was desperate for a stop down the stretch and Flus just wasn’t doing anything different from what I could tell.
  8. This Lane Kiffin thing is cray cray. Dude leaves wreckage in his wake wherever he goes. I’ve heard rumors his dream job is the Cowboys. I can’t think of a more fitting destination for him. Also, kudos to Rebels fans for figuring out what was happening by monitoring flight track data. That’s creative.
  9. I saw the play where Wyatt got hurt and it looked brutal. Actually felt bad for the guy. But yeah there's no coming back from that.
  10. I do not understand why anyone would find those 3 any more interesting than a random meatball in the stands. Maybe Stephen A. Sometimes his delivery is good comedy. But the other two? They are literally what you can hear at any bar, any night.
  11. Stick with the run. If the Bears can do that successfully, they'll have a significant TOP advantage and that will keep Love on the sidelines more. I think Love is pretty good. He has a solid combo of pocket movement and downfield throwing ability. When they can establish the run, it means an easier time downfield and then look out. Also, when he gets in trouble, he just throws it up for grabs and gets PI. He does this regularly, so it's not just luck. Man, I hate hate hate the Packers. Even a split with that horrible franchise this year will be a big win in my mind.
  12. He's human away from Green Bay's system, like a lot of GB players. They tailor their players to their scheme. Rodgers is really good but when you combine his age with systems he hasn't grown up in, he's just not the same guy. I too would love to see a losing record with him at the helm. Remaining schedule: BAL, MIA, DET, CLE, BAL. Could be 3 losses in there. We will see
  13. BJ was a huge reason their offense was so dangerous. Goff is the same guy who was traded away from the Rams in favor of Stafford. It's totally clear now. I'm not going to say they aren't good, but that's quite different than great. I think the Bears can beat them. We shall see.
  14. They'll almost surely drop some games coming up. Win 2 and we're in. I agree with Jersey completely, it's still a mid-tier roster with holes. What an amazing job by BJ & crew getting the team where it is given those holes. There's so much opportunity to improve. It's got to be scary to the rest of the league how good this team can be with a friggin' pass rush. And with the coaching staff, we are now able to do what I've rarely seen with a Bears team: find diamonds in the rough and develop them into players who make real contributions.
  15. Here’s a team that was 14-3 with a good QB in place and simply chose to blow it up over a draftee who wasn’t even that highly thought of as a passer in college. Coach & GM are paid to know whether JJ is going to be a better option than Darnold. That’s a failure that should get them fired. I know GB wouldn’t stand for it.
  16. Yeah back from the dead. I had written them off.
  17. Wins over GB and LAR means nobody should feel like it’s an easy week when playing them.
  18. I will always believe it was his final gift to Beardom
  19. LOL of all the crazy aşş şhit. Bears #1 seed in the NFC.
  20. Or maybe SEC denialism.
  21. Nobody can stop the Buckeyes
  22. I mean, it takes a serious level of denial to not recognize the immediate impact of hiring a coach like BJ. Sure, they’ll probably drop some games and it will make the doubters feel good but this a coaching staff on par with the best and it’s the first season.
  23. Quite unbelievable. I guess that’s what happens when you have 2 RBs over 100 yards.
  24. There’s no question the Bears are good. That’s different from being great, or a contender or whatever. But that was the champs, in their building. Bears absolutely manhandled them all game. Doesn’t really matter that their offense is struggling. Our air game struggled too.
