100% I was concerned at first, thinking they would not count the sack because of the dumb ass drawing a penalty.

What a great start to the game. Seattle goes 3-and-out. The Bears march 80 yards for a TD. Go Bears!!!

I pray you are right, because the only team I would want to see him play for in the NFC North is the Bears. ;-) Which I would think is impossible.

I don't like this (Quotes from Bleacher Nation): I looked up this "McCaffrey-like" package as I couldn't remember the details: (Ask Gemini AI response)

Almost every site I visit for Bears info has strong rumors that we are still trying to get K Mack to add to our defense, even after acquiring Simmons. They say it would cost a late-day 3 pick and about $8 million this year.

I don't think GB has given up on Jacobs. Jones is injured again (needs to hang it up), and Mason is a far cry from a difference-maker. I know there is no chance in hell it would happen, but could you imagine Taylor lined up behind Caleb?

Let's hope he doesn't wind up in Minnesota.

Wright was lousy in coverage, but no worse than JJ. At least he tried to tackle players instead of watching them run past him, and got turnovers, which JJ fails to do. Is there anything JJ does do well?

He could be the difference-maker for the Bears. With him platooning with Swift, I am thinking the Bears win. Without him, I hate to say it, but I think we fall short but keep it close.

Charbonnet is also off IR and on the active roster. He was held out last week but might return this week. Any news on Monangai's return?

IDK Booker, as a rotating player, has 4 sacks and 2 forced fumbles. Before going on IR, Dayo already had 3 sacks. Sweat had 2 sacks before missing the last 2 weeks. Unless the player we target for a trade is far more productive than what we already have, do we want to give up draft capital we can use to retool our defense? Pay big bucks, limiting our FA acquisitions? IMHO, he needs to be a huge difference-maker, not a complementary piece, to justify the move.

I found this article on Heavy. A good read. Ben Johnson Trick Play: The Fridge Would Have Understood I'm not a big fan of the site; too much speculation on trades, but they do, on occasion, have an interesting article on a hot topic about the Bears.

I assume you love vanilla ice cream? LOL I love that he is unpredictable (within reason ;-))

When everyone was filling out their preseason predictions, how many of us had us winning this game? Now, with a mini bye, we can prepare for Seattle, who have proven vulnerable. Hope we have a clean injury report by the time we play next.

That missed FG may wind up costing us big. It would have made it a 2 possession lead. Now?

There is no excuse for that TD by NE to end the half. NONE!

Strong start by the defense. Now we need to start scoring points and run up the Time of Possession to wear out their D.

Dang, missed a wide-open receiver. Missed opportunity.

Great start. Gordon has been amazing since returning. Who needs Garrett when we have Gordon ;-)

I always thought it was stupid that the NFL requires coaches and players to give sideline reporters answers to lame questions, distracting them from the game. After the game is over, okay. The days before the game- hell, 2 hours before the game- but not when they are on the field getting ready to play.

I hope they give Booker a full load; he has been saying he wants more reps. He's actually put up good numbers for the limited snaps he's been getting. I wonder why the light load? I thought he was fully recovered from all health issues that held him back,

I read this amazing stat on the "Heavy" website: (Copy & Paste quote):

Thank God Gordon is back in action today.

Bad taste in my mouth after such a sweet start.

Whatever happened to the CB we received in the Dexter trade? The only reason I thought it was a fair offer was the kid we received sounded like a decent backup CB, not a pro bowler by any means, but not a bad dude to have around. Was his disappearance a sign he was a garbage add-on?
