I think we need to dwell on the positive after a butt whipping like this . Rome Odunze and Swift was effective. That's all I got. I stayed away from here yesterday and social media because I felt sick enough w/o the extra chatter.

Adam , how do you put players on IR, if we actually have those spots? I dont remember if we do in this league or not.

My mind tells me that we will play better and still lose, but I watch my team (Bears) with my heart and hope. One day we are going to be a very good team, why not want it to be today. 27-24 Bears.

I dont get deep into stats but they do paint a picture. I did see one that bothers me about Caleb. He led the league last year in overthrows to WRs. His accuracy is in question. I think BJ will fix it but its not in game 1.

The Bears signed Jake Moody/K to the practice squad. I think this move was to put pressure on Santos and replace if necessary.

He does the extensions to get good deals before the time they expire. Injuries are never expected. If he let the contract play out and he signs somewhere else the Bears Nation would throw a fit. At the end of the contract, some will have been good and some may have been a bad decision. Did GB make a bad decision paying Parson 47 mil a year with knowing he has back issues. If they go to a SB, no, if doesnt play a lot of snaps during the contract , yes.

Like someone said, good teams overcome this but it affects us when everything has to go right to win.,

After watching an all-22, Caleb deserves a lot of credit for missing reads and not getting the ball to open WRs. I paid attention to Braxton Jones and I only see 3 times where his guy gave pressure to Caleb. He played well in my opinion.

Several things are fixable but If it continues , I dont think BJ keeps Hightower around.

Yes , we also had a punt partial blocked. I read where Santos was told to kick the ball out of bounds. It would give them the ball at the 40 but would have given us another clock stop for the 2 minute warning. Now with several backups starting did that pull them off of the ST plays? We missed the tackling ability of TJ Edwards and Kyler Gordon.

There was a couple bad calls. They gave Dayo a personal foul for hitting to the head and the replay clearly shows him under the helmet.

Many things to dislike but trying to be rational in my evaluation. Penalties killed drives. Will say a couple of bogus calls by the umps didnt help. Defense looked very good and then seem to run out of gas in the last quarter. Caleb didnt have a good game (IMO). Missed reads and erratic throws. Did well in the beginning and run well but it disappeared at the most important part of the game. (4th quarter) BJ had some mistakes. Santos missed FG was huge. I think everyone said this will take a little time to get going and after this game that is obvious. Very disappointing to give away a victory and losing made it seem like the old Bears but I think BJ will clean it up.

Swift had two runs in that series that he pounded for first downs.

This game is not decided yet, but running the ball now.

Defense- check All I care about is winning , style points will come. Viking won 14 games last year.

Was he a FA or did Poles give a late round pick, playing well.

Now we're in McCarthy's head, time to start rolling

Now Im excited

We have two sacks and Vikings 0, so far so good. I think its noisy for MInny and we are playing physical. Neither team can run. Jefferson 1 catch for 4 yards. No JJ and Gordon.

Us winning this game will be determined if we get points out of the blocks in the second half.

To many penalties Dayo and Sewell look good protection is pretty solid

I was trying to figure out who 55 was and its Dayo, he's all over the place.

For sure everyone paid attention to him.

Future SB QB according to some.

Add Sweat in there and those are the top 4 Ds. Unless Jarett is youthful again. I feel like Im taking my drivers test for the first time, anxiety, nervous and hyped waiting for the game to start.
