    Still a lot of inconsistency and slop on per top back basis. He’ll throw a 30 air yard bullet to Buden for a 37 yard pickup and on the next pass attempt he’s off target trying to lead a receiver sitting in zone. One thing that’s noticeable is he’s getting the ball out quickly and minimizing negative plays and it’s reflected in his efficiency stats. His ANY/A, QBR and NY/A are all right outside of the top 10 and his era adjusted efficiency is almost 2 standard deviations higher than a year ago. The lack of costly turnovers was the difference in this one as well.

    Couldn’t have teed up a more fitting ending for payback from the Hail Mary game. I can’t remember the last time we were on the right side of one of these.

    Yes!!!!$! Brewers lose too. Good night.
  4. Geographyhater8888
    Get closer, Don’t get complacent.
  5. Geographyhater8888
    They’re buttering us up to kick us in the nuts.

    In pouring rain too. Negative.
  7. Geographyhater8888
    Of course he catches the pass that doesn’t matter.
  8. Geographyhater8888
    Special teams coverage unit blows.
  9. Geographyhater8888
    Are you talking tonight or in general? That’s how you take 68 sacks.
  10. Geographyhater8888
    The missed opportunities were going to eventually comeback to haunt them, this shouldn’t surprise anyone
  11. Geographyhater8888
    Bears are a curb your enthusiasm episode.
  12. Geographyhater8888
    The defense has played up to their expectations with all the injuries. The way the roster is constructed they have to score points to win games and the offense has been underwhelming for 4/5 games. Play calling has been great though.
  13. Geographyhater8888
    Sloppy formation but the officials are horse sh t.
  14. Geographyhater8888
    So much slop.
  15. Geographyhater8888
    10/17 for 85 yards. FFS.
  16. Geographyhater8888
    Winning the turnover battle 2-0 and heading into halftime trailing for the second straight week is a bad look for the offense.
  17. Geographyhater8888
    Caleb is going to have to stretch the field eventually.
  18. Geographyhater8888
    Conservatively Suzuki will at least be in the 3’s now that he’ll get playing time in the outfield.
  19. Geographyhater8888
    Are they planning on keeping around Alcantara and Cassie to replace Suzuki and Happ or will either of them be used as part of a trade package to acquire a cost controlled starter like Cabrera? The timelines don’t align and if they’re in win now mode relying on rookies is a risky strategy whether it’s this year or 2027. If that’s the case then there should be no hesitation to pay a premium price for Valdez.
  20. Geographyhater8888
    Is it a sure thing Cassie is opening day DH and Mo develops in Iowa as a catcher or do you think there’s a possibility Cassie is packaged with other farm talent for a Edwards Cabrera or Gore? There’s a surplus of outfield options and Cassie is an unknown. I’m curious what their plans are when Happ and Suzuki are off the books. Alcantara slipped out of the top 100 and i’d trade him while he still has value. Tucker walking changes their win now urgency to an extent I’d think.
  21. Geographyhater8888
    We also have to assume we’re getting the same Justin Steele back before his surgery too. Valdez without question would transform this rotation but I’m afraid their ceiling is Cease and their floor is a Zach Gallen. Depending on Shotas future and if he walks, you’re still 5 deep and it’d be difficult to recruit another #3/#4 option with the possibility of losing a rotation spot when Steele returns.
  22. Geographyhater8888
    If Busch continues to sit vs lefties, free agent Paul Goldschmidt had a 981 OPS vs left handers last season and a career 1007.
  23. Geographyhater8888
    That wasn’t meant to be taken seriously in any way.
  24. Geographyhater8888
    If the Cubs are in playoff contention and Happ and Suzuki are putting up their usual slash lines that would be surprising. The lack of right handed slug would also be a platoon disadvantage by moving Suzuki. If anyone is moved my guess is it’ll happen in the offseason.
  25. Geographyhater8888
    I’d be surprised too but what are the plans with Mo who can’t play a position? Happ and Suzuki are on the books for another season so unless a trade occurs there’s a surplus of outfielders and DH options and it doesn’t make a lot of sense to carry all 4 if you’re expecting sufficient playing time. That would require a lot of faith in Cassie if they get Happ to wave his NTC which is another half measure by the front office and another potential Shaw situation if he struggles out of the gate.
