Bears going lateral to the LOS a lot today, I don't like it. If they are going to do that, they have to do some counters.

and as part of the Tankathon sweepstakes, HOU is tied with TEN in the 2nd quarter. Bears still in play for the #1 pick if HOU wins 2.

and just like that, the Bears terrible run defense is back, lets up a super easy long TD run to Singletary.

I highly doubt the Bears hang all game, but to have a 10-6 lead against the #1 seed in the AFC after they had a lead against the #1 seed in the NFC last week if really impressive. In other news, Carolina is destroying the Lions 24-7 at half.

Wow, the Bears defense stops the Bills and they miss a FG. Bears still up 10-6.

Santos says screw the wind and nails a FG, 10-6 Bears.

Fields came into the game needing 40 rushing yards to pass Vick for the 2nd most in a season for a QB. He has 7 yards, needs 33 more.

They went BPA, which is tough when you had so many holes on offense, but it is the best way to build the roster. You need as many blue chippers as possible. I was hard on Gordon all year, so I am glad he is making me look like an ass.

Brisker sacks Allen on 3rd Down, almost a sack, and the Bills are forced to punt. Rookies all over making plays, love to see it. Regardless of the outcome of this game, Gordon, Brisker, Jones (finally), and Gill all making impact plays.

Bears can't get much going, then Mustipher snaps it sideways and the Bears have to punt. Gill booms a 63 yarder and pins the Bills back deep.

Kyler Gordon with another pick and nice return. He is on fire. Wow. He has been night and day after coming back after missing that game.

Kmet with a drop, -1. Velus now with 2 good run backs on kickoffs and a nice quick slant reception. Bears can't convert on 4th Down, Bills take over. Now the Bears defense cannot stop the run. LBs look terrible. Bears win the 1st quarter 7-6. They hung with the AFC #1 seed, now they can tank.

I would rather they play man instead of zone against Allen. He picks apart zone coverage.

Bears still lead 7-6 after a missed XP by Bass.

Bills score on TD to Davis. No pash rush, easy pass. Jaylon Jones and Brisker -1.

Morrow -1 on long run by Cook. He was out of position and didn't even attempt to get back.

At least they are calling penalties even. Borom's hold was obvious. Now Bills with a hold called. Nice to see it even for once.

Merry Christmas Gents! I hope you all are staying warm and enjoying the holiday!

Gordon with a great PBU on Diggs. +1 for Gordon

Wow Bears with an insanely impressive drive to open the game. Buffalo had no answer for the Bears offense, Fields to Pettis for 6.

Great fake pitch to left, rollout to right, then throw to the 2nd level to Pringle.

Feels like 12 below zero to open the game. Bears get the ball to start.

This is going to be an ugly game, Johnson now on IR: So our CBs are Gordon, Jaylon Jones, and Josh Blackwell with DHC and Brisker at Safety. No Sanborn, no Jackson, now no Johnson.

I know, me 2! It opens up so many options for the Bears. Once you start dropping, you are then settling for what is left. I almost feel like #2 is the most valuable pick in the draft because HOU has to draft a QB at #1. That leaves every other player or a trade available to you. No other pick really has that flexibility. Once you get to #3, there is a chance 2 QBs are off the board AND there is even a chance that both Carter and Anderson are off the board, or one or the other. So at #3, you are already settling.

I wanted Jones or Trask, boy was I off. I didn't think Lawrence or Wilson would be available at #20 so I really didn't look into them that much. I was leery of Fields because of his performance against Alabama. Fields did not look good in the Natty compared to Jones. Jones had 464 yards passing and 5 TDs and Fields had 194 yards and 1 TD. In comparison, Trask played the same Alabama defense a few weeks earlier and put up 408 yards passing and 3 TDs. If you can only go off the tape, how would you not conclude that Trask or Jones were better? Here were their WR/TEs: Jones: Smith, Waddle, Metchie Fields: Olave, Wilson, Smith-Njigba Trask: Toney, Pitts, Grimes I would say Jones and Fields Receiving Corps were fairly equal and Trask probably had the weakest group. So if Trask can do that against Alabama, why didn't Fields? Somewhat of a weird comparison, Fields had 194 yards passing, 67 yards rushing, and 1 TD against Alabama in his last college game and now for his NFL career he is averaging 157 passing yards, 57 rushing yards, and 0.9 TDs per game.
