Bears with a special teams redemption for the win after McCarthy came alive in the last two of their drives. The defense went into max prevent and it always has the opposite effect.

He was nailing his passes as opposed to earlier in the game. A lot of airball deliveries. Minnesota is probably wishing they kept Darnold around for at least one more year.

adam Posted 1 hour ago Author Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Every week the Bears have the refs against them, inaccurate passes from Caleb, bad play calling, terrible protection, dropped passes, unbelievably bad Special Teams, a porous defense, and somehow they still win lol.

50england50 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Top of the North. It probably won't be for long, but when you have a chance to lead the decision it's good for confidence if you can reach the summit. Additionally, you never know, the Lions could have a bad day at the office. 🤞🤞🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago This is probably the worst way to get to 7-3. Coach sucked, QB sucked, run game sucked, defense imploded again late in a game, and huge special teams gaffes, but still somehow able to come away with a victory. Game ball goes to the TE's today. They were the unsung hero of the game. Kmet had his best game catching, and Loveland had a huge 3rd down conversion after a horrible drop by DJ Moore.

Bears4Ever_34 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago I'm getting 2001 vibes about this team, and not in a good way. They're winning, but it's definitely starting to feel a little fluky. Caleb's progress has really plateaued since the Cowboys game as a passer. He hasn't gotten any better being on time and throwing with accuracy. He's been great in the 4th quarter, but he was doing that last year, too. At some point, he has to start putting a complete game together. There's just no excuse for the game to come down to a FG at the end. McCarthy is the worst starting QB in football and nearly pulled another win out of his ass, because the offense couldn't take advantage of the Vikings self-inflicted mistakes, whether it was drops, errant throws, or interceptions. Need a MUCH better performance from Ben Johnson and Caleb next week back at home against a bad Steelers defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this year if we get to 10 wins, that will be great. We can definitely build on this, but next year i expect us to be a contender for real.

adam Posted 34 minutes ago Author Report Share Posted 34 minutes ago What a weird game. Bears had the ball for 37 mins to MIN's 23. Complete domination for time of possession. They held MIN to 3-11 on 3rd Down, and only allowed 265 total yards, yet they allowed 2-3 in the RZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam Posted 21 minutes ago Author Report Share Posted 21 minutes ago 8 minutes ago, BearFan PHX said: another big 4th quarter meltdown by the D. We need a pass rush. The MIN first half: Punt, Punt, FG, Punt, INT, INT. 3rd Quarter: Punt, Punt 4th Quarter: Bears up 16-3: TD, Punt, TD To me they are allowing the easy passes over the middle to prevent the 50 yard chunk plays, but in doing so, they are making it easy enough that a middle school QB has 5 TD drives against this defense in the 4th quarter in 2 games. Against MIN and McCarthy in 6 quarters (1st-3rd in both games) have allowed a total of 9 points. Then in 2 4th quarters, have allowed 35. So 1.5 pts per quarter for the first 3 quarters to 17.5 in the 4th. I will have to check the splits but that just seems bonkers, like the CIN game too.

jason Posted 17 minutes ago Report Share Posted 17 minutes ago 1. I didn’t watch it. 2. Why did Caleb suck? Bad throws? Bad scheme? Drops? 3. How did Santos miss the one FG? 4. Why did the Bears go for so many FGs? Or where did the offense stall? Outwardly, this looks like a game that the a bears should have won by 2+ TDs.
