In a related subject. I read no one from GB made the Pro Bowl. Sad… ???‍♂️??

Wow!!! I salute you!!! ?

Oh I’m not. She’s the public affairs rep.

Yeah I was in the same exact place when I read the link someone shared about Dexter. So far he has 13 solo and 2.5 sacks and he was nowhere near the hype Carter was. If you consider that instead Chicago got Wright and Dexter in round 2 then I’m good with Poles’ decision. Especually knowing Carter also has a questionable character background.

Welcome to the collective. ?‍?

Coulda swore we had this in Marshall and Jeffery. Turns out they both had over 1,000 at the same time (2013) and nearly were both over 1,300 that year. Jeffery got 1,421 and Marshall 1,295. As Maxwell Smart used to say, “missed it by that much”.

Random pic from yesterday’s game and one of Justin’s ‘biscuit in the basket’. (Thank you Gus Johnson).

With this I would completely agree. FWIW my conspiracist side says everyone on the Bears knows what’s going to happen next season. When I say “everyone” I mean; Poles, Warren, Flus, Fields and ownership. And they are all sworn to secrecy to appear that they don’t know what will happen so as to drive up the price of the 1st round pick and get all they can for it.

I get what you’re saying. I can see the critical side of Justin’s ability. I understand he has missed open receivers from time to time. But I also see a lot of the other “successful” QBs do it too. And those other guys have a better supporting cast (Oline, receivers, OC or HC) but Justin (in my mind) has overcome a lot of that adversity. (And to some level so has Flus). Nevertheless, I think Justin is smart enough to not only hear the noise of what you’re talking about but also to concentrate on focusing on what his weaknesses are and improving on them. Like Trubiksy he has the ‘good guy’ aura about him but on top of that he has the success background in HS and college that tells you he knows how to win and will do it given the chance. When you add in the “Houdini” like abilities of evading a sack like we saw a few times today, everyone starts chanting “we want Justin” in the stands. This guy is a keeper (IMHO) mostly because he’s the type of guy that you build around to make better. This post brought to you courtesy of Barrell Vantage Whiskey. ? Happy New Years you filthy animals. ???

Which will be Chicago. ?? But a lot of why he succeeded today was that Getsy called a few designed roll-outs, play action and run plays which are what he (Fields) needs to succeed. That and his Oline gave him a high percentage of clean pockets also contributed to his success. M

“If only”… that game against Denver was another near miss. To consider what this team’s overcome this season: - early concerns about Nate Davis (distraction) - Resignation of Alan Williams (huge distraction) - firing of the other staff member - starting the season 0-4 - injury of Fields early mid-season. And then to do what you highlighted? Pretty incredible for both Flus and Justin. Hard to think all or most of the current team and staff won’t be back.

“WE WANT FIELDS!!” ??

How about that AZ up by four on Philly with seconds to go.

If I had to guess Kmet will be good to go. Last game against GB and a local kid? Almost no question. Johnsons injury looked like a stinger. I’d say he’s back next week too but maybe more sparingly. With Stevenson and Smith playing well, not as much a concern. Dj Moore going into the tent a little concern. But also a stinger type injury I’d guess. if I had to guess, we’ll be at nearly full strength next week for end of season against GB. All hands on deck.

Hoke should be elevated to DC.

I’ll also add this. Having Santos locked up for a few years is a good feeling.

Gonna call it right now, when the Bears select MHJ in the draft this team is gonna be hella scary.

Caught that. Next weeks gonna be a good game. ???

The fact Terrell Smith and especially Stevenson are playing as well as they are says a lot about Poles and Flus.

Coach Cowher stated during halftime the Bears would be 5-1 in last six games if they won today. He was off by one game but still they’d be 4-1 in last five games if they win. Not bad.

Still not sure why we haven’t seen more of Feeney. Sure his snaps needed some work but he’s much better at the point of attack.

That play to Johnson was a broken play I believe. Justin took a high snap and looked to the RB to pitch and wasn’t looking back for it.

I dunno. Mahomes might suggest otherwise.

Yeah in the same game no less. Heinikce asks for the call and several mins later gets the call. Justin gets whacked in the head while starting his slide and…nothing.
