Pixote Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago I'm sure BJ will use the next two weeks to make some serious changes. It was UGLY, but it gets us into the bye with a respectable 2/2 record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam Posted 17 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 17 hours ago Reminds me of the 83 Sox, winning ugly. That was such a crappy game all around, yet they came out on top. Like we have said before, almost every game is decided by a few plays. This one was one play. Thankfully the refs didn't impact the game like they have in the previous ones.

AZ54 Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago Horrible day for the offense and yet we still put up 25pts. I agree on the play calling early in the game we were playing into their hands. Stevenson was the best player on defense. Kudos to him for putting in the work to improve (if you didn’t see his press conference a week ago it’s worth checking out). Byard was right there with Stevenson. i don’t know what happened to Braxton. I do know that things improved with Theo and Ozzy in the game. there was a lot of ugly football this week. We won an ugly game coming from behind. The mistakes are not good. Staying in the game and fighting for the win on the road is a huge positive for the locker room.

Going into the bye with an ugly loss would have been horrible. Now they can make changes, get healthy, MAYBE pick up a few cheap free agents to replace some deadwood (can always hope).

BearFan2000 Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago As ugly as this was I have to say that TD drive for what became the winning score showed a lot of determination and grit. These kind of wins are important I building character and enforces the fact that you don’t quit fighting till the clock hits zeros. I was worried about this game because of how we manhandled the cowboys last week. were it not for all the takeaways we wouldn’t have been in this. It sucks to get all those takeaways and have very little to show for it. Aside from the turnovers we got little if any pressure. And we let a struggling Raiders run game look dominant. At time we show no desire to tackle. The big plays (takeaways) are making these issues. offensive line struggled to give Willams time to throw and again got no push in the run game. The run game has been non existent so it’s not just today. This has to get better. I know we had backups in there. Crosby is an absolute menace. Didn’t realize how tall and big his wingspan is. He put on a clinic batting down passes. That was a tall order for a backup tackle making his first start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mongo3451 Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago Bears win! What a great environment. Bears fans showed up in a huge way. It was what sports is all about. I must have high fived and fist bumped 500 people of all races and sexual orientation. Chicago fans exemplified how to represent their team. I guarantee y'all will hear it from the team in their pressers. The chanting of Green Bay sucks as we walked to the strip was amazing! I'm exhausted. Bear freaking down boys! Let's get healthy now...

Glad you got to witness that nail biter. I wish the team was as relentless as the fans and would actually make GB suck. No matter what team the Bears have, the Waldron deck tunnel echos GB sucks.

jason Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago Did Caleb look like shit as his stats indicate, or was the OL terrible? I didn’t watch any of the game but I thought he’d put up big stats today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t watch any of the game but I thought he’d put up big stats today. He had a few pretty big drops - then some decent plays take away by penalty. He was pressured like crazy by Crosby in first half - but I thought as game went on he did a real nice job moving the pocket and moving the chains. A number of throws where he reset the pocket and then hit a 3rd or 4th read. Crosby was a straight up wrecking ball - quite frankly Caleb throws for a lot more yards if not for the short field the D gave him - but the offense did nothing to tale advantage of the short field - the offense calls and execution just seemed off - too many 3rd and long from penalties and non existent rushing attack.

Stinger226 Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago This was an ugly win but remember how hard it is to win in the NFL on the road. Just look at GB, Chargers, Ravens. We are starting to turn losses we would have had in the past and winning those games. We have two weeks to get healthy and make some adjustments to be a better team. So far, I think BJ is showing this is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted 3 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Looking back at some of the replays, a huge missed holding call on LVR on that long Jeanty run. Kpassagnon was clearly held at the point of attack, which would've been a short gain at best. Jonah Jackson got called for something way less egregious on a Monangai run.

adam Posted 1 hour ago Author Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Maxx Crosby was less effective in the 2nd half. The change, Braxton Jones comes out, they slide Benedet over to LT and Trapilo gets 40 snaps at RT. I will have to watch every snap, but Trapilo was solid, if not above average at RT, and Benedet was solid at LT as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
