Bears4Ever_34 Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Ben Johnson with one of the worst end of half decisions I've ever seen. What in the literal hell was he trying to do there?? Just run the ball 3 times and force MIN to burn all their timeouts! Instead, he throws the ball, calls a timeout on 3rd and 1 on their own side of the field, and then Caleb overthrows another open receiver deep down field on the next play, giving MIN a shot to get the ball again with all their timeouts. He almost got burned again like in the first game. 7/16 for the QB that half. Totally inexcusable performance by Caleb. Luckily, McCarthy has been even worse, but the offense is not taking advantage of opportunities. Another big opportunity to start the 2nd half with the ball. They have to push this to two scores to force KOC to abandon the run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted 2 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 2 hours ago There has been a free edge rusher on every play, run or pass. The Bears have to counter that and make them pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Referees miss a blatant facemask on 3rd down that would have continued the drive. Yet another game where the Bears get screwed by the officiating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50england50 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Can anyone tell me why the league hates the Bears. Officiating is a joke. The official is looking right at the face mask and doesn't’t call it. Why do we always play against an extra player? We had a roughing the passer call in the first half which was less than several late hits on Caleb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearFan PHX Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago I would like to have a special teams coverage unit that can just even be average? Gotta figure Hightower will be replaced before next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he missing the reads?   If all it takes to rattle him is a rush then don’t think the remaining defenses on the schedule won’t be deploying it.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet they call penalties on the Bears that are not even there, yet miss these. Luckily Santos didn't miss the FG, because that could've been even worse.

Now Burden has turned into Oz, two drops today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings are pressuring Caleb and leaving the deep throws one on one, betting that Calebs inaccuracy on the long ball wont hurt them, which has been true for a lot of the day. How to beat it? Run it down their throats and then throw on play action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
