🏈 Week 12 Official Game Thread 🏈 PIT @ CHI, Nov 23rd, 12PM CST, CBS, CHI -2.5

Dominque Robinson seems to get hurt on every tackle he is involved in. The project didn't work, time to move on from him this offseason.

Another embarrassing drive by the defense. 4 3rd down conversions on this drive alone.

At least PIT was finally called for a hold, but on that play 3 players could've been called for it lol.

Considering we are playing 2nd- and 3rd-string LBs and CBs in our starting lineup, I think they are doing the best they can. 

[adam]

McCloud is the worst man, I know there are injuries, but QBs have a perfect QB rating against him. I don't think he has ever caused an incompletion. 

[Pixote]

Now we need a long, time-consuming TD drive.

Anyone other than McCloud. He reminds me of Vildor, but worse.

Caleb melting down at the worst possible time. Misses wide open receiver, followed by delay of game.

[Stinger226]

That's the thing that bothers me about Caleb, to many small mental mistakes. 

[Stinger226]

I think I would have went for it, but Tomlin is a lot smarter than me.

He still has a lot to work on.

1 first down, and it's game. Need our best run calls.

It looks like he was giving himself a chance, but one first down and it's over.

[adam]

They literally are blitzing every gap and the Bears run into it.

[Bears4Ever_34]

It really shouldn't be this hard.

[adam]

I HATE PREVENT.

[adam]

Blitzing works, shocking! 

[adam]

Bears win lol!

[Pixote]

We clobbered them! Blew them out by 3 points. They didn't have a chance! LOL

Considering the injuries. That is some win tonight. We are finding the way to win which is crucial. Couldn't the happier for the team. It nice to be able to watch the game and to always be in it at the end of the game, and we find a way to win. 

[adam]

Jackson had 15 tackles, Ogbongbemiga had 14. That's wild.

Bears score 31 and the offense didn't have a clean game. Swift was 8-15 rushing with a fumble lost. 

[jason]

1. Didn’t watch.

2. Was Caleb inaccurate again on simple passes?

3. Who all had drops?

4. Winning like this is not normally a sustainable plan. But is it just good enough? Or are the Bears getting breaks? It seems the breaks are even, if not against the Bears slightly. So, is it actually sustainable this year? Are the Bears actually better than we realize considering the injuries, officiating imbalance, and self-inflicted mistakes?

5. This feels like the Lovie era. This team will win just enough to threaten or make the playoffs, get thumped, and have a draft pick in the teens. Unless you hit a home run on that teen draft pick, it’s a sure fire recipe for perpetual 10-7 or 9-8 seasons with the same ending.
