1 incompletion to Moore, Kmet with a drop, Odunze with a drop. Even on the Moore pass, Moore is being held, and he clearly can't get back to the ball on the dig. That wasn't supposed to be an outside throw. Moore just got held.

Monangai is really growing on me. He keeps his legs moving, and on any player other than a DT, he moves them back. On any 3rd or 4th and short, I am giving him the ball every time.

and of course Santos misses a kick, but a penalty saves him.

I love how hard Monangai hits the hole, no pun intended.

When the Bengals are returning the ball on kickoffs, they have everyone blocked. When the Bears kick off, there are at least 3-4 unblocked Bengals. How is that even possible?

Bengals have 137 Yards and a TD on 2 Kick returns.

Too many FGs the last few weeks, need to at least try for a TD. All you have to be is 50% on those and you still have better odds to win than if you only kicked FGs.

DJ Moore with a TD pass to Caleb Williams lol.

Watch his college tape, he made all these crazy contested catches, and now can't catch the ball. It is so bizarre.

Kmet drops a dot on the first play of the game. Then Odunze drops the pass from Kmet with no defender near him. This is getting old.

Yeah he is literaly the worst employee in the entire organization.

Untouched for a 99 Yard Kick return for a TD, unfreakingbelievable.

If you don't fire Richard Hightower after that, you are not a serious organization.

Welp

For Goff, in his first year in Johnson's offense seemed to flip the script after Game 8. Through 8 games, DET was 2-6 and he had 14 TD and 7 INT. In the last 9, they went 7-2 and he had 15 TD and 0 INT. Something clearly clicked for him. His worst QB Rating in the final 9 games was 83.0 which would've been better than 5 of his first 8 games. He had 4 games below 60% Comp in his first 8, then only 1 in his last 9, and that game was 59.5%, in a game where he had 355 yards, 3 TDs, and 0 INT, so the lower Comp% was meaningless. So hopefully we are near that point with Caleb.

Swift's lack of carries following back to back 100 yard games now makes more sense. However, he extends his streak of never having a 3rd good game following back to back 100 yard games. I would assume Moore will get a few extra carries as well. I don't want Homer to touch the ball unless he has to.

Swift, Roschon, Burden, and Robinson out for Sunday. Looks like Monangai gets the start with Homer as the only other RB on the roster?

CJGJ is a ballhawk. 18 INTs in 64 career starts. Jaylon Johnson has 7 INTs in 71 starts and Stevenson has 7 in 36 starts. So as long as they can keep the attitude in check, he will be an upgrade over McCloud, Owens, or whoever else they were plugging in there.

He was but there is a defender off screen who dropped off their guy and Rome is literally running straight at him. If Caleb leads him, Odunze is probably on a stretcher in a neck brace.

Hopefully this helps out the entire group.

Flacco is nursing an injury, they may have to go with Browning, who has looked absolutely terrible in his recent starts.

Looks like he is going to play the Slot CB, which is a massive upgrade over McCloud who has arguably been the worst starter on defense.

One of the worst parts of it was Loveland was injured and missed a good chunk of the offseason. So the Bears knowingly drafted him with the knowledge that they may not get full production out of him until mid season? This goes back to Poles thinking he is the smartest guy in the room, similar to Pace. Then once he makes a bad out of position pick, it has a ripple effect for multiple years. Like Bowers + Egbuka instead of Odunze + Loveland is an example just using two position groups in back to back years. You can do it for more picks from the first year he drafted. So every year, the Bears fall further and further back against the top 12-15 teams in the league who at least draft average every year. The Bears are always in the bottom 3rd.

On INT, Loveland 6 yards downfield being held by Roquan, literally on his back, prevented him from moving. Another missed call.

Both Caleb and DJ not running out of bounds when they could gained like 4 yards but took 40+ seconds off the clock when time was more important than yardage. Between net yards lost on penalties and special teams the Bears would be 6-1 right now, and the DET game would've been a lot closer.
