UN freakin BELIEVABLE!

This game is insane.

Loveland is a star.

Caleb picked a bad time to have the worst game of his career.

Ben Johnson is freakin terrible. He has absolutely no idea what to do in the redzone. There was a legit chance for them to make it a game if they had scored a touchdown there, but, of course, Ben Johnson draws something up that gets nobody open.

The Packers have a bunch of nobodies on defense and have embarrassed Ben Johnson for the 2nd game in a row without Micah Parsons. Caleb looks like shit. Not even close on any of these throws in the pocket, and he refuses to run. I'm turning this game off at halftime. Not worth my time.

Dennis Allen, you are FIRED. What an embarrassing effort from this defense. This one is turning into a laugher we will have to sit on for 9 months.

That's the problem with this offense. They can move the ball, but way too inconsistent and way too many 3 and outs at the worst possible times. This game is over if the Bears allow another TD by the Packers. This is just about exactly the way I thought this game would go. Bears never fail to disappoint.

Yeah, I brought up that fact about the 1986 Jets a few days ago in reference to the Packers losing streak. Historically, the Packers are in a worse position than the Bears entering this game, but for reasons I mentioned above, the situations feel differently. Jordan Love hasn't played a full game in a month. On the other side, the Bears defense has had almost everybody back from injury for several games now and have fallen apart. Their issues feel more existential to me, but maybe that's just my cynicism. The optimistic side is that maybe Jordan Love is rusty coming back, and maybe the Bears broke them a little on defense after their collapse. I'm not completely bought in to that argument, but I understand it when you watched how they played against Baltimore.

I'm not going to lose any sleep if they made a change at DC, but I would lean towards keeping Allen for another season. They need to make some significant changes to their front 7. There's only so many things a DC can do without a pass rush. Their LB'ers are too slow, and their best blitzing DB has been out most of the season. They don't have enough talent to be a great defense. In saying that, I also don't think Allen has done himself any favors this year. They've had to rely way too much on turnovers to get off the field, which we know is not a sustainable model. The reason I lean towards keeping him, though, is because I know he's been really good before with the Saints, and I also know that if the defense returns to form soon, he's in no danger of getting a head coaching job again. That was one of the main reasons I was as hyped as I was about his hiring in the first place.

It's unfortunate now that both teams come in to the game on a downswing instead of the Bears being the team that looks like it's peaking at the right time. They negated any positive momentum/vibes/psychological advantage they may have had after last night. The difference is the Packers have had time to rest up and let the stink wear off from that last game against the Ravens while the Bears come into the matchup on short rest immediately after one of their worst performances of the season. The Packers were also playing with their backup QB's for the most part, which probably makes it easier to not get too demoralized. I think the Bears have to be panicking right now about their defense. Dennis Allen has no answers for anything. The Packers defense is vulnerable, but they're well coached and only surrendered 9 points before the onside kick late in the 4th quarter of the previous game. If the Bears are going to win, they're going to have to start faster and dominate the time of possession in ways their opponents have done to them as of late.

Bears are playing on Saturday at 7 on Prime.... Short week. Brutal. Was hoping for a Sunday game.

Eagles lost. Bears are the 2 seed.

Nothing like a 2 game losing streak going into the post-season waiting for the Packers to end your season. I am already dreading next week. This team has no shot to do anything in the playoffs.

Burden cannot drop that pass. Ruined the whole drive.

Wow!

The Bears keep inventing new ways of getting back into games they have no business being in. Loveland has come alive. Need to finish this now.

Bears defense gets a break with a mind-numbingly stupid play call by Dan Cambell.

Inexcusable effort by DJ Moore. That interception is on him. Get the starters out now. Burden looks like he got concussed. What a nightmare of a game.

3 and out to start the 2nd half, lol. freak Ben Johnson.

If this game gets pushed to 3 scores, they should just sit everybody and accept their fate before they get somebody hurt.

This reminds me of 2020 when they lost their last game and backed their way into the playoffs. They're getting blown out by whoever they play. At this point, I really hope it's not the Packers.

Ben Johnson should be embarrassed. This is a total gutless performance. Second time in a row he's gotten destroyed by Dan Cambell.

This team isn't winning shit in the playoffs, lol. What are they doing on offense? Where is Burden?? Wake up!

Slow starts on offense combined with a clueless DC is a recipe for disaster. The Bears look like they don't want to be there right now.
