How do you drop 7 yet St. Brown is wide open? It is mind boggling how bad this defense is, and Edmunds is brutal for the money.

At least Caleb came to play, 198 yards and now 2 TDs, scored in 19 seconds for 70 yards. Crazy how throwing downfield works.

27-7. Can you imagine how Caleb and his family feels? Oh man. If they don't turn this around this offseason, I could easily see him not signing an extension with the Bears. Which would be the most Bears thing ever. Get your first true long term franchise QB in the draft and you are so bad that he won't resign with you.

How do you jump offsides on a 4th and 1 knowing they are going with the hard count? The entire stadium knew but not the players. Some of the dumbest and least disciplined players in the league. Great job Poles. Adding insult to injury Carolina is winning 20-10 against the Cardinals, a team that destroyed the Bears a few weeks ago.

This defense man, unbelievable, allowing a 82-yard TD pass. The Bears can't get a 20-yard play. It is just comical at this point.

Caleb Williams just hit 3K passing yards, first QB to do it for the Bears since Trubisky 3,009 Passing Yards.

The Bears are the worst team in the league, and it's not really close. There is no way they are beating the Seahawks or Packers. This team is finishing 4-13 with 11 straight losses. If that occurs, you have to fire Poles. He would've been the architect of a roster that lost 11 straight games twice in 3 seasons.

Bears get positive run, holding.

The defense playing like the worst unit in football also doesn't help the offense. I know the offense isn't do them any favors, but allowing points on every drive makes the offense one dimensional an easier to defend.

There are so many players you need to purge from this roster. Geez. Now our 1st round draft pick has 2 fumbles on 2 touches, unbelievable. At least we are not losing by the biggest margin. WAS is down 14-0.

I love Campbell as a motivator, but I think he is average at best for in game management. I mean, if you are going to go for it on EVERY 4th Down, that's not really management. Like the onside kick, even if they got it somehow, that was still a dumb decision. I think the Lions will look vastly different when they have a different OC and DC next year. They will still be good because the roster is stacked, but I think they will be more of a 9 to 10 win team that is at the WC level compared to where they are now.

So for anyone thinking Williams and Nix are close, look no further than CAY (Completed Air Yards). Against LAC last night, Nix had 0.8 CAY before the last garbage time drive with less than 1 min left. He ended with a 1.1. The week prior he had 1.2. That means his average completion went 1.2 yards beyond the LOS. Having a low CAY is not necessary bad, Mahomes averages 4.0, but when it's that low, it's a red flag for sure. Mac Jones averages the lowest in the NFL at 3.6. So in the last two games Nix has 2 of the 3 lowest games on the year of any QB in any game. Rush has the lowest at 0.9. So again, not all stats are created equal. Nix stat line looks great, 263 yards passing, 2 TD, 106.6 Rating, 63.1 QBR, but 90% of his stats were his teammates and the scheme. Oh, and his team lost to another winning team. Nix has never beaten a team with a winning record. Even with only 4 wins, Williams at least beat LAR.

I love the guy in motion on the punt. Even if you still punt it, that would take my attention away for a sec.

If you really take a step back and just look at how the Bears have lost since the double doink, it is almost beyond belief. The first game after the Double Doink is in the NFL's 100th Season Game against GB at home, the Bears lose 10-3. They lose because Trubisky throws an INT with 2 mins left in the end zone to Adrian Amos who the Bears did not resign that offseason. Then their next loss is in the UK by 3 to the Raiders where they literally cut Kyle Long out of the blue after one bad game. That was the Chase Daniel game where he also threw an INT with 1:22 left when the Bears had 2nd down at the OAK 47 and 2 timeouts, down by 3. A few games later they lose to the Chargers by one after Pineiro misses a 41-yarder to win it. Then in the 2nd game against GB, the Bears had the ball inside the GB territory twice in the last 5 minutes of the game and didn't score a single point to lose by one score. Even when they get lucky, something crazy happens. They lose the last game of the season, but still back into the playoffs at 8-8, then in the game, Trubisky has one of his best throws of all-time and Wims drops it in the end zone, then later punches a player and gets ejected the game. It was wild.

The Bears should win, this is a good chunk of the Lions 2nd and 3rd stringers, but it's the Bears, they literally find a new way to lose every week.

Here's the thread. Prediction: Bears lose by 13.

Thru 14 games, this is where Caleb ranks amongst qualified QBs: 2nd INT% 4th 10+ Yard Rushes (QB) 6th QB Pressure Rate 7th Attempts 7th Rushing Yards (QB) 13th Completions T-15th TD Passes 19th Passing Yards 23rd Passer Rating 26th QBR 26th EPA/DB 29th PFF 29th Comp% 29th CPOE 34th Sacks (last) 40th NFELO I would have hoped his QBR and Comp% was a little higher and he had a few less sacks. He has 3 more games to improve on some of these numbers. I was hoping for one more big game from him to push him ahead of Daniels and Nix.

The CAR pick will be interesting because the teams with the same record rotate per round. So the Bears have a chance to both get a better pick and a worse pick depending on the order. The hope is that CAR won't be the lowest team of any record with SoS. That would prevent them from being the team with the lowest 2nd round pick.

Yeah it is unfortunate and that is why everything needs context and you can't use one metric. His QB Rating was 86.9 and is now 87.7 on the season. He has 2,937 passing yards, 17 TD and 5 INT with 3 games to play. He should hit 3,500 passing yards and 20 TDs, which would be a top 10 rookie season for a QB.

It is just a combination of things. Promoting Brown to OC is one thing, but then 2 weeks later elevating him to HC was not ideal. At the same time you have players making business decisions and clearly not giving 100% on and off the field. Interim coaches rarely work out because the problem is at the organizational level. They need to clean house and get rid of hold overs. Every part of the org needs to be looked at, scouting, pro player evals, etc. Something is clearly wrong on how they evaluate talent compared to the rest of the league.

After throwing for over 300 against them last time, I really thought Caleb would hit at least 200 passing yards. He has a QBR of 25.3. So after 3 stellar games against GB, MIN, and DET, Caleb has fallen off the cliff again the last two games. He has played very polarizing this year. He either has a QBR over 60 or below 45. 5 games over 60 and 9 under 45. Some of this is on play calling, some on the O-Line, but a good chunk of this is on him. For me it seems like his accuracy is off, and they haven't even attempted any passes beyond 20 yards in several weeks. Like how can we be in Week 15 and the QB and WRs are not on the same sheet of music?

30-12, off by one lol, but about as bad as expected. You gotta love Kmet getting one target and one reception while Allen gets 13 targets and has 3 drops. Swift can't get a yard on two separate 4th and 1s. At least it will be easier for the next GM to see who to keep. There is just no way Poles survives this. How many more national tv embarrassments will it take?

Poles 3rd Round Draft Picks really showing out: Velus, Pickens, Amegasuck. I am sorry, but there is no defending this guy anymore. This roster is a hot mess. Detroit has way more players on IR yet are still winning. Also, this is not an emotional reaction, this is due to another 8 game losing streak in the last 3 years. This roster is not as good as you think. Sweat is overrated. 4.5 sacks for your Edge1 sucks. They have no Edge2, the healthy DTs are all backups. Edmunds is terrible without the salary and even worse with it. Just cut him already. Stevenson is just a goofball and shouldn't be a PS player at best. Owens is great for making a tackle after a 30 yard catch. At this point, they need to shed Edmunds, Walker, Stevenson, and Pickens on defense. They need 2x Edge, at least one more DT, MLB, CB, and S. So just 6 starters on defense, no biggie. On offense, 4x OLinemen, a RB, a real TE2, and a real WR3, so that is 7 more. So 13 key contributors, then a few top edge rotational guys. So about 16-18 key positions need to be addressed to get this roster to be competitive. On offense, the entire O-Line is terrible. Wright is serviceable, but he should not be letting Edge players with 1 sack sprint right by him untouched for an instant sack. He is good for one of those every other game. Swift is not an RB1, good for outside zone stuff and 3rd Down back stuff, but that's it. He is not an every down back. At least Brown has shown he is not the guy for the job. You can cross him off the list. This team looks worse now than before.

No problem, and it's odd that no one is talking about this. WAS and DEN have beat no one. Caleb and the Bears have had a tougher road with comparable stats so far, yet Daniels is the runaway favorite for OROY.

I am not opposed to Vrabel, the trend seems to be to go to an Offensive HC after a Defensive one. Lovie to Trestman, Fox to Nagy, now Dumbass Flus to ?
