Let’s go

I was worried about time when they didn't get the FG off before the 2-min warning. I felt that with 2 timeouts and the 2-min warning, they would have a shot. Once they got the onside kick, I knew they would score. Then I was worried about Ben going for 2 and losing. So I am glad he played for OT because the Bears really had the momentum at that time.

I go back to he’s got a ton of warts but is already above average and those warts are absolutely fixable with work and good coaching and I think we have the coaching and he seems to have the work ethic! This is hard as we can get caught up in the quick flash and sizzle but he is just consistently getting better and I think year 3 will be another big step forward. I also think when they get Burden and Rome back we will see a Caleb who is even more ready to work his progressions etc. Jahdae might have a nice future in the slot too here.

All of this. ☝️😎

Love was averaging 5.9 Yards per attempt and Jacobs 3.0 Yards Per Carry. The only thing that was extending drives were the penalties. Willis and Wilson were way more efficient.

This highlight doesn’t get old…my whole family had given up in 2nd half and I kept telling them this team is different they’ll find a way…but even I didn’t see it quite going like this…from so frustrating to so damn fun…so nice to be on the flip side of this!!!

The defense was getting cooked…gave up a ton of long drives as they really weren’t ready to get into a physical slug fest and when Love went out that is what happened. And our dline just isn’t good.

Knowing PFF is just one tool, this is pretty cool, the TD to Moore was the first "perfect" throw this season:

Jahdae Walker might be a solid find a year from now. Small school to big school and he seems to have some tools.

I thought there was no chance he would hit the 51 yarder. Even the one before with that cross wind…wow.

I see a lot of media blaming the injuries to Love, then Jacobs, but in reality, Willis and Wilson were better. If you compare Willis and Love, you would think Love is the backup. Wilson also had double the yards per carry than Jacobs. Willis played a lot better than I was expecting him to.

He is still not a 60-yard type kicker, but considering a quarter of the season is played in inclement weather, maybe he is better suited for this than I gave him credit for.

Yeah, it's wild to score that consistently and still have yet to play a complete game.

I just realized the Bears could also now clinch a playoff spot with one more Packers loss after last night's victory, and the Packers might have to start Malik Willis against the Ravens next week. Also, opponents are winless the week after losing to the Bears this year. Something to keep in mind

Can we please get 2nd half Caleb in the first half? It seems like he plays on slow burn until he needs to crank it up. Man, he's great with his hair on fire. And how bout Jahdae Walker!

Still running on fumes after last night... They were severely out played and out coached for almost all but 2 minutes at the end and somehow found a way to win. I am hopeful this win will finally allow them to breathe a little and not press as much early on in case they meet in the playoffs. Having Burden and Odunze back will be huge, but the Packers will get a couple players back they didn't have last night, too. My biggest concern right now is what happened to CJGJ? I pray he didn't blow his knee out and maybe it's only a slight hyper extension. Was he able to walk it off? His loss is devastating for this defense that already couldn't afford to lose him given the Kyler Gordon injury. They still likely need 1 more win to get in, and they're going to have to play maybe the two best offenses they'll play all season the next two weeks. I'm really nervous how this is going to play out.

SF's offense always scares me with Shanahan. Purdy eviscerated the Bears last year. The ball barely touched the ground. Obviously, the circumstances were different back then, but his accuracy and downfield throwing scares the heck out of me given how poor this defense has been in giving up explosives. I don't think their defense is very good, though. They can't rush the passer at all. I expect this offense to move the ball and put up points in this game. I think it could come down to takeaways and time of possession.

For any Bears fan, this victory was monumental. One I will never forget. However, IMHO, San Francisco is a far more talented team than any team we have played this year, and who stands in the way of a potential #1 seed for the Bears. Detroit, despite their record, kicked our ass in the first meeting (we are vastly improved since then). I want revenge! So, yes, I think the next two games could define the Bears as either a good team that missed the playoffs or one that won the NFCN, the #1 seed, and a chance to return to the Super Bowl.

i am with you, i am/was not his biggest fan. it's just strange (or not so for a kicker) that he runs hot and cold. misses easy chip shots one game and makes the incredible on others. that said.... his game was superb last night. when he lined up for a 51 yarder i said not possible with that wind. he proved me wrong.

This is the reason they kept Santos instead of changing to Moody. We have gotten two onside kicks this year and the bad weather games. Without him, we don't win this game.

Beating the Packers was the most significant game of this year. We have had 3 playoff games, starting with Philly up to now.

No. I think no game will be more challenging than getting the Green Bay monkey off our back. This was as important a game as you can find in the regular season for making the playoffs plus the history between the two teams. You can’t come out of this game and not know that you can play with any team in the NFL. Pitt, Philly, GB, CLE (top D), GB. We’ve been in the playoffs for weeks. Now teams have to take us seriously.

Shady was giving Caleb shit last week and now this.

and he is talented as hell, and the lightbulb is coming on for him as a pocket passer, just like we hoped. He wont need these heroics much longer. He's about to be a top QB. I think this was his breakout game. If you watch each play, he was magnificent. The offense sputtered, but Caleb was GREAT. Oh and here are his recent records: 1) #1 lowest interceptions for a QB in their first 1,000 passes of all time (since the merger) 2) Second highest career TD to INT ratio of all time. Rodgers is #1, Caleb #2, Mahomes and Brady are in the top 5 too. 3) Ties Payton Manning for most 4th Qtr comebacks (20) under age 25 And he is still improving - the signs are there. He is on the path to being a top QB for a long time. And I believe he took a huge step tonight. Much calmer, better accuracy, timing was fantastic, good reads, and a total winner at the end. Due to our D line being terrible we didnt have the ball much on offense, but that long early drive when we fumbled the trick play at the end? Go watch Caleb cook he was on fire, and so calm - it looked easy. And the end of the game too. A real winner and difference maker. If you could trade Caleb for ANY QB in the league to roll with for the next 5 years - cap aside, just straight up - who would you take? Id stay with Caleb. Thats who he is. The signs were there from the start, and its all coming together now as Ben Johnson teaches him how to actually play the position.
