Barkley was throwing to Cam Meredith, Josh Bellamy, Deonte Thompson, and Marquess Wilson towards the end of last year and was lighting it up through the air.

Exactly. And name me 1 player on this roster that's as good as Meredith

Beautiful throw by Trubisky to Cohen. They need to use Cohen more as a WR WITH Jordan Howard in the backfield. Should open things up a bit with his speed like you saw there! Now, they have to finish this drive off with 7 going into halftime.

Meredith is not the difference between putting up 400 yards passing through the air and struggling to throw for over 150. He's not Julio Jones.

This is why I'm always so concerned when they don't score on these explosive plays. I have no faith in their ability to finish off drives and having to settle for 3 there instead of 7 might come back to haunt them.

Hey Fox, You have no Marbles

Zach Miller and Kendall Wright.

I LOVE ME SOME ALABAMA D!!!!

 

We should ALWAYS draft at least one Alabama defender every year.

 

I've been saying as much for about 5-6 years now. And it wouldn't be a reach.

Loggains needs to be fired right now

This play calling on offense is driving me crazy. This defense is going to be shot by the 4th quarter.

Defense has to be close to leading the league inn 3rd and long conversions.

Zach Miller and Kendall Wright.

Neither is Meredith lol. But the other issue isn't the players. It's the play calling. My whole who's who's point was this wr corps is not the same or better than last yr

Neither is Meredith lol.

 

Compared to what? His ONE complete season?

This defense has a problem with getting off the field on 3rd down. Horrible call by Ron Rivera to go for it on 4th down. We seriously need a long sustained drive by the offense

Compared to what? His ONE complete season?

Ok fine. If you seriously want to think this wr corps is better than last yr fine

I've seen a lot of bad Bears offenses over the years, but I'm pretty sure this has to be the worst. It's almost a guaranteed three and out if the 1st down run play goes for less than 3 yards. They lack talent, but the coordinator puts them in positions to fail time and time again.

Ok fine. If you seriously want to think this wr corps is better than last yr fine

 

Wouldn’t say that but to think Meredith is better than any of the current receivers is premature.

 

I’ll agree the play calling is a huge piece to it. Wheaton, Wright and Miller all have potential to be decent if given the opportunity.

Everyone has been talking about the "potential" of wright and Wheaton for a long time. Neither has done done much in there careers. Wheaton has 0 catches this yr

Pass defense is getting torn up, and the Bears continue to not do themselves any favors by allowing Carolina to convert on all these 3rd and long situations. Feels like this is the type of game where it's only a matter of time. All it takes is one explosive play and a turnover on offense and this game will take a dramatic turn.

TOP skewed greatly toward the trailing team leads to blown leads because of gassed defenders. Bears D needs to get off the field and the offense needs to give them a break with a sustained drive.

Totally agree. I don't feel good about the game yet

59-21 in total plays. Not pretty

Just a good 5 or 6 minute drive would make me feel good about possibly winning the game.

4th with a lead, Bears will run run run. Do they say it is another successful performance from Tru? He has nothing to throw to except Cohen or Miller.

Another sack and another 3 and out. This is ugly

Yeah this blows. We can't sustain any drives and we aren't even putting trubisky in a situation to win.
