Players are so scared to get a roughing the passer, they are trying to bear hug them instead of knocking them down.

17-0 in the 2nd half, would really love the defense to just force a FG here with a 10-pt lead, then the offense has a long scoring drive to put the game out of reach.

Two great drives in the 2nd half. McCloud is the biggest liability on the defense. Can't leave him man to man.

Good, maybe, resilient for sure.

He was baiting him into a penalty, he has to be careful there on his right side.

Yeah, long overdue, have never been good with soft tissue injuries, but this year it is next level bad.

I am not liking these play calls, where are the quick slants, quick outs? All these long developing plays.

Looks like they stopped the forward progress, so the last 1/2 yard fall to the ground was after the play was called dead.

Block in the back on the Gainwell run, no call. What is going on?

If you noticed the game shift right after the officials get involved. Weak call on ST, then the Wright holding that led to the Caleb fumble TD. Now they don't call forward progress, then after Swift is stopped, they can rip the ball out? Come on man.

How is that a fumble?

Yeah, this is going to turn into a bad loss. Getting WAS game vibes where the rest of the season goes south after this game if they lose. What is he thinking there, just take the safety.

What the hell, come on Caleb. Inexcusable, what are you doing?

Yeah, right on queue, one on ST, on back to back plays. What I hate about the ST one, you can call holding on every kickoff if you want to. Yep, the Bears are one of those teams that can't run a screen on offense to save their life, but get gashed on defense by them on every play. The minute an extra offensive player goes to that side, you have to balance it. Yeah, it is going to be a long day for the defense. I doubt they force a punt, at most maybe force some FGs.

PIT doing nothing fancy, just throwing the ball to the outside with extra blockers. Bears playing vanilla and staying back. Gonna be a long day unless they attack the LOS.

Yes, our defense was not good already, now borderline terrible. The only hope is to go back and forth and possess the ball last, score and win.

Boom, TD to Moore. Thank God! We needed a TD.

Wow Wright, maybe the pick of the year, insane.

Then PIT gets a 9 yard gain on a hand off from shotgun, which was basically a 14 yard run.

Of course, a terrible 3 and out. 2 bad runs into 9 defenders, then a throw into triple coverage on 3rd down. WTH

Yeah, and injuries can easily derail a season. The offense is going to have to go off and force PIT into being one-dimensional.

No Theo either. So it is Ozzy vs Watt or Herbig, not ideal.

No Jaylon or Gordon. This is going to be an ugly game. If they can win without their starting LBs and CBs, that would be a miracle.

My fear is if there is manipulation by the league, and they want him to have his Swan Song, he comes in and magically gets a naked bootleg TD to win the game and to do the discount double check one last time. Now that would suck balls. I just want him to go away, but I understand the sentiment. The way the league has called games against the Bears, these games never feel fair.

Damn, Bears' media site shows Tremaine Edmunds on IR, but no announcement from the team. 4+ games missed would suck, he was having a great year.
