  1. I don't hate this matchup for the Bears defense. They have historically done pretty well against Mike Evans. He's never had a catch over 20 yards against them, and that's been mostly against guys like Prince Amukamara and Kevin Toliver the last few times. OJ Howard is out, so their only TE threat is a guy with 50-year old knees. I actually like the Bears chance against Evans with Jaylon Johnson, who's been great so far. If Godwin is out, that's another less guy that the defense needs to worry about....although, their leading WR so far is a little white guy name Scotty Miller. And we know how Brady loves his little white guys. I'm not too worried about their run game. I'm sure they'll have their moments just like every other team has, but the Bears D was much better vs. the Colts run game. Unfortunately, I do hate this matchup for the Bears offense. The Bears need to have some sort of run game, and are facing an even better run D than last week. They are big in the middle, fast at the LB level, athletic on the edge. Against the pass, the Bucs have a couple good edge rushers with last year's sack leader Shaq Barrett and 3-finger Pierre-Paul. They have combined for 6 sacks, and Charles Leno got whooped all day Sunday by a lesser pass rusher than both. Bucs also have 4 sacks from their starting safeties, so they will blitz the immobile Foles consistently. Their CBs are young and getting better each week. A high-scoring game favors the Bucs, because obviously scoring isn't the Bears strong suit. But a low scoring game also probably favors the 6-time championship winning QB. Not to sound all doom and gloom. TB hasn't really beat any great teams themselves. And the great equalizer is the short week with the long travel for the Bucs. That being said, the home team hasn't won either of the last 2 weeks including Denver picking up a win after traveling to New Jersey. Of course, the Bears are a better team than the Jags and Jets.
  2. And 15Mil over the cap next year if it's lowered all at once because of lack of revenue this season. They stand to lose the face of their franchise, JJ Watt, though to be fair they have that covered.
  3. I didn't expect Foles to be the missing link for a championship caliber offense. But I'm still dumbfounded by the offense this game. If you showed me every throw in that game and I couldn't see the QB, I would have assumed it was Trubisky playing QB. Late throws on slants and to the outside. High throws in the middle of the field. Inconsistent deep balls with a couple thrown short, a couple too long, and the one out of bounds to Mooney. Maybe more upsetting is that if you showed me the playcalling (7 of first 14 first down calls were runs between the tackles), I would have thought Nagy was coddling Mitch so he didn't screw up. If you gotta do that with Foles, then he shouldn't be playing. Not that they have to come out like the 80s run-and-shoot offenses, but there was very little to suggest that Mitch was limiting the playbook.
  4. Every game has had at least 2 TDs this year. Even the Mitch ones. And hell yeah for cheap fantasy points to Robinson! Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk

  6. Man if you bench an undefeated QB you better be sure the other dude is better. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  7. Anthony Miller probably gotta stop getting on the field. Give Ridley some snaps. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  8. That's probably grounding Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  9. What's the point of changing the QB if you're still scared to call plays? Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  10. Ginn's gotta go get that punt. Let the dude run into him. Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  11. This is the same game we saw like 14 times last year. Maybe it's not Mitch? Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
  12. Terrible call to pick that up. He wasn't blocked into him. Hell he wasn't blocked at all. Patterson also needs to catch that ball Sent from my moto e5 supra using Tapatalk
