9 targets, 3 receptions, 3 drops, and 2 false starts. Ugly game.
-
Crosby is a menace. Sucks he is stuck in NFL purgatory.
-
He does hit the hole quicker. Swift is slow with no vision.
-
Can't count on a blocked FG to win, glad that happened, but could've avoided that situation with better clock management. I understand the theory of just scoring, but teams sometimes allow teams to score to get the ball back with more time. With how the defense was playing in the 2nd half, you can't give the other team that much time and allow that big of a return.
-
I’m with you here. This was not the game to burn clock expecting mistake free football on the last drive.
-
I'd like to see more of Monangai. He certainly looked better than Swift.
-
I understand your point. However, if they burned the clock and something happened, and we failed to score, we'd be 1-3 going into the bye. The way things were going, I could see us trying to score with 5 seconds left, Caleb gets sacked, or a WR drops another pass, and we lose the game.

As ugly as this was I have to say that TD drive for what became the winning score showed a lot of determination and grit. These kind of wins are important I building character and enforces the fact that you don’t quit fighting till the clock hits zeros. I was worried about this game because of how we manhandled the cowboys last week. were it not for all the takeaways we wouldn’t have been in this. It sucks to get all those takeaways and have very little to show for it. Aside from the turnovers we got little if any pressure. And we let a struggling Raiders run game look dominant. At time we show no desire to tackle. The big plays (takeaways) are making these issues. offensive line struggled to give Willams time to throw and again got no push in the run game. The run game has been non existent so it’s not just today. This has to get better. I know we had backups in there. Crosby is an absolute menace. Didn’t realize how tall and big his wingspan is. He put on a clinic batting down passes. That was a tall order for a backup tackle making his first start. -
Going into the bye with an ugly loss would have been horrible. Now they can make changes, get healthy, MAYBE pick up a few cheap free agents to replace some deadwood (can always hope).
-
The Hail Mary ended Flus's run, the team was sleepwalking after that game. My hope is this is the signature gritty win they were looking for, battling for 60 minutes to scrap out a last second win. Johnson needs to improve his play calling; felt like he was forcing the runs that were turning into instant lost yards. Then, with first and goal at the 2, you score on first down when you could have burned the clock all the way down and forced them to use their timeouts. A lot of learning points while getting a win going into the bye. They really need Edwards, Jarrett, Gordon, and Wright back.
-
Another week and another non-existent running game. I just don't understand what is going on. How could it be that bad. There are 3 defenders in the backfield or a huge hole and Swift or Monangai run right into a defender.
-
Kmet may have just had his worst game as a pro. They are overpaying for a very average TE. Too many drops and penalties for a veteran. DBs should not be able to tackle him so easily. I would consider trading him before the deadline for anything if Loveland is healthy. I really like him as a person, but he continually underwhelms and has seemed to take a huge step back this year.
-
The Bears need to trade for someone, Breece Hall, Tyler Allegier? Someone, anyone. Get Donte Foreman into the building.

Horrible day for the offense and yet we still put up 25pts. I agree on the play calling early in the game we were playing into their hands. Stevenson was the best player on defense. Kudos to him for putting in the work to improve (if you didn’t see his press conference a week ago it’s worth checking out). Byard was right there with Stevenson. i don’t know what happened to Braxton. I do know that things improved with Theo and Ozzy in the game. there was a lot of ugly football this week. We won an ugly game coming from behind. The mistakes are not good. Staying in the game and fighting for the win on the road is a huge positive for the locker room.
-
Reminds me of the 83 Sox, winning ugly. That was such a crappy game all around, yet they came out on top. Like we have said before, almost every game is decided by a few plays. This one was one play. Thankfully the refs didn't impact the game like they have in the previous ones.
-
They always lose these type of games, huge win. Get Gordon, Jarrett, Edwards, and Wright back after the bye. They also need another RB.

We should get a few starters back, which will help. Gordon, Edward's, Jarrett, Booker, Loveland, Wright. -
I'm sure BJ will use the next two weeks to make some serious changes. It was UGLY, but it gets us into the bye with a respectable 2/2 record.
-
The Bears always lose these type of games, crazy to come out on top for once.
-
Holy redemption, Blackwell with a blocked FG to win it.
-
This is going to be such a typical Bears loss. They are already in FG range because of the horseshit Special Teams.

Trapilo has done pretty good at RT against Crosby.
