bowlingtwig Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 What a joke the game has been. These refs are a complete joke and this team can't play from behind as we've known Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Complete anihilation by Houston in the 2nd half. The Bears starting to look like the team many figured to be one of the worst 5 in football. Hard to disagree after this showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowlingtwig Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Very disappointed in this game. Defense can't get any pressure and has Jay even looked White's way since that pick when he failed to finish his route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50england50 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Need to figure out that stunt happened twice and 2 sacks. Pass rush straight up we have handled well Sitton and Whitehair need to recognise stunt and pass the player off. Come defence get the ball quickly and who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears4Ever_34 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Neither side of the ball looked good at all. Aside from the first 10 minutes of the game, the Bears got blown out against a mediocre Houston team with a below average-to-average QB who doesn't know what to do after his first read on offense. If the defense can't get to quarterbacks and the Bears offense can't get anything out of Langford, they will be in the hunt for the #1 pick in the draft this year. I still believe they have the talent to be in playoff consideration, but it's going to be an uphill battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The third best D in the league last year came to play in the second half, and once they took the lead, they unloaded on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That online didn't look good at all especially on stunts Continuity is key with OL. Leno is the only one who played the same position last year. This pool of linemen are the best I've seen in a Bears uniform in a long time. They will need time to gel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holding the ball too long, pocket awareness and recognition was lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears4Ever_34 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Cutler's pocket awareness was really good last year. His awareness in the pre-season and week 1 of this season so far looks night and day compared to last year. I don't know why. Maybe Gase? There were several instances where he didn't step up to avoid hits, and it got worse as the game went on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Boxer Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Just my observations The Good: Freeman, Jones-Quartey they played well and were around the ball all game 1st half i thought we played really well. Pass protection was great, AJ was involved, we ran the ball a little bit The Bad: Floyd I expect more from a 1st rd pick. Seems too light for what we need. Had a sack but was expecting more. Just an observation but his pads seem really small The Ugly: Massie, White Massie continued to get beat. White looks really unprepared and lost in the offense 2nd half was terrible...almost night and day from the 1st half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 The Bears also HAVE to start throwing the ball down the field more. If you're not getting anything on the ground, you have to soften up the defense somehow. Alshon was murdering the Texans secondary early in the game for easy yards, yet the Bears never went back to it in the 2nd half. It didn't make any sense. Then, Kevin White, the guy who's supposed to be really fast, didn't get a single opportunity on a deep route the entire game. WTF? How many throws beyond 10-15 yards did Cutler make the entire game? It didn't seem like a lot. The sad truth is that even if Cutler were picked off throwing bombs to either of those two, it's almost better than watching Pat O'Donell try and punt it there.

Alaskan Grizzly Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 he needs to step up in the pocket, the Ots are getting killed , there is space up front. You're absolutely right. He would start out in the shotgun and not move. Earlier this week when I was watching the Carolina / Denver rematch they were commenting on how in last years SB one big reason why Cam was getting mauled by Von Miller and Co. was due in large part to how he started several yards behind the line. Then when Miller and Ware would come around the outside of the pocket Cam would rarely move. In the game the other night he was standing about 3-5 yards shallower and it was making a bigger difference. When watching Cutler today, especially towards the later part of the game I was seeing the same thing. Granted there were a few times he got rushed from the middle and shallow side but it seems a fair number of the sacks today came from the top end of the pocket. Jays never really been a great pocket passer. In fact I had thought the whole idea of getting younger and lighter on the Oline (ergo loss of Slausen) was to start more zone blocking? I didn't see any of that. No rollouts... Nada. We all know Cutler is better on roll outs when he's able. Why not more of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
