Good point. I thought Edwards injury was worse because of the cart coming out. There have been players able to walk off the field with broken Fibulas before. I wonder if his wasn’t a complete break of both the Fibula and Tibia? Agree that it’s odd Trapilo was able to maneuver off the field mostly on his own. Maybe a higher level of pain tolerance and youth? 🤷🏻‍♂️. Agree with a guy his size, if it’s anything significant it’ll cost him some time . Here’s to it not being as bad.

Also consider the Rams are a dome team that would have to travel here and play in the elements. Philly is used to cold weather. that said I’m still blown away that we went from last year’s train wreck to hosting two home playoff games and possibly more. One offseason. It’s night and day.

Help me out to clarify. They put TJ on the cart but had coaches help off Ozzie. Important because full ruptures are easy to see on field and the patient is not weight bearing. The cart would have been out. Full ruptures are very rare. Like 1%. I'd bet it's not a full rupture

Less rest, more travel. eh... However, with the trouble we have in our secondary, Hurts offers less of a challenge than Stafford, as long as we keep him from extending drives with his legs. So maybe Philly. Both teams will be a challenge, given that our D is playing Pee Wee Football.

You are correct, SF wins, LAR comes to CHI. If PHI wins, they come to CHI. Pros and Cons to each: LAR - travel is in in the Bears favor. LAR just had to go to CAR, back home, and then back to CHI. They have the better QB. PHI - the Bears already beat them, PHI would have one less day of rest, but they are the Super Bowl champs.

We should've known it would play out like this. The Bears scored 0 in the first half of the last game, and 22 in the 2nd half and OT in the last game. This game it was 3 and 28. In the first game 3 pts in the first half, and 18 in the 2nd. So collectively, the Bears scored 6 pts in the first half in 3 games against the Packers and 68 in the 2nd half/OT. LOL.

My understanding (and please correct me if I am wrong) is that if SF beats PHI this afternoon, we host the Rams. If Phi beats SF, we host PHI. I am not anywhere near as familiar with SF & PHI as some of you are. Which team would be the best for the Bears to oppose next week to give us a chance to go to the Conference final? My knee-jerk reaction, since we did so well against them earlier this year, is Philly.

25 4th quarter points are the 2nd most since the merger. Eagles scored 26 pts in the 4th quarter against the Saints in 1993, but they won 36-20, so it was more of a blowout than a comeback.

Terrible news on the injury front, Edwards will be fine, but Trapilo is probably done. His body is probably too big for that tendon, and only half the players come back from that type of injury. Most times, it is 2 year recovery, which would mean he would miss the next two seasons. So the Bears will need to address LT in the offseason.

The Bears didn't punt. In 10 drives, they had 3 TDs, 3 FGs, 2 INTs, and 2 ToDs. So 60% of the drives resulted in pts, and 30% in TDs. GB had 11 drives, they had 4 TDs, 2 Missed FGs, 4 Punts, and the EOG. So they scored on only 36% of their drives. If you hold an opponent to only 4 scoring drives, you typically win. The Bears won a game where they had no takeaways on defense and turned the ball over twice on offense. Something they rarely do on either side of the ball.

I'm too old for this shit. Wow!

And we will have a pass rush too!

There were a few real nice check down throws he made. When he and Bears figure it all out…look out. I’m kind of excited what this unique will look like when they have a full offseason and we get Rome back to 100 percent. I think we forget how good he is and will be.

And that was with 50% completion. Imagine how this is all going to look when they get more consistent. We are already special, and were not even that "good" yet.

My bad I thought for some reason he was taking about Braxton Jones playing well in playoffs and getting us a comp pick. You are right and it seems like no one knows for sure.

Also it seems like there is some uncertainty if Cunningham gets this job whether it would be eligible. Rapaport reported Ryan will have final say which makes this gig more akin to an asst gm role. No Rooney rule and Bears evidently could block him from interviewing. As much as I want Ian to get the gig - If Bears can block they should. Now if it is a true GM role and we get the picks…than best of luck to you Ian…otherwise you are here until you get that true GM gig (and I hope you get it)

I think thats for players? These are comp picks for losing a minority front office guy elevated to GM.

It depends on the size of the contract he gets. Than it also depends on how many we sign vs lose at a certain size (and signed by a certain time).

Does anyone know if Atlanta hires Ian as GM that because they hired Ryan as president, we wouldn't get our two comp picks. That sounds like a stupid take on the situation . Poles ain't going anywhere, what a stupid rumor .

Hope for the best for Ozzy but realize Braxton could end up having playing time which could elevate his off-season status to a team paying him 15+ and getting us a comp pick. Anyone know how the value works?

We had a winning record, a playoff win but what is more important to me is we probably got LeFuer fired. He's an awesome coach and will be elated if he's gone.

I avoided getting on here because of the negativity I was going to hear. As the second half started was hoping for something to hold on too. At the end of the quarter, I thought no chance we can win this game. The feed I was watching kept reloading so the game was about 10 minutes behind. Seen post game notifications pop up but stuck to the game feed. I was rewarded with a win. It's the middle of the day for me, I going to walk 10 miles listening to post game shows. I'm guilty of thinking we were going to lose. That won't happen again with Caleb and BJ running the offense.

I legit can’t sleep - that was insane.

I’m hoping we find out it is season ending but not as serious as it could be. Good thing is he is young.

That's a potentially career changing injury for Trapilo. The return rate for lineman who come back and don't get worse is pretty bad. Just awful. LT has to be back on the menu in the draft, unfortunately.
