Chicago Bears address

[BleedBlueGold]

Dammit don't make me like this kid.

 

[MKEagle]

CW will break the Bears record for most TDs thrown by a rookie QB

*current record is 11 by Charlie O'Rourke in 1942

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

I got the pound of flesh I was looking for when SC was in South Bend last season.

Water under the bridge now. I would like to see another Super Bowl winner before I turn 50.

This will be the worst sports weekend ever if the Bears look flaccid and get trounced today. I can’t even……

CW's height is becoming an issue already.

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Life!

 

[IrishSteelhead]

I’m starting to think the staff really thought NFL defenses would let Williams run around, and they don’t have a plan on what to do if that is taken away.

Special teams and defense.. some things never change in Chicago.

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Boom, unreal.

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Don't worry Bears fans, this is completely sustainable in today's NFL.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

This is like one of those games from the 2001 season. Crazy ass ST and D plays, smoke and mirrors to stay in a game you had no business being in.

I'm just glad I have the bears defense in fantasy. Football season is going to be long and suck for us bears and ND fans

I should've known I'd be cursed when I first met zorich. We just can't have nice things

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

It wasn't pretty.
Game ball goes to Levis and the special teams.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

If the offense can figure it out, people won’t like playing them.

Half of that on the final drive to kill the clock.
W is a W.

To say the offense was rough in the 1st half is an understatement. It looked worse than whatever the fuck we saw ND do yesterday.

The 2nd half was a major improvement. Still not great, but they made the plays when they needed to and the defense and ST came through (again, unlike ND).

Thank you Bears for grinding this one out to make up for the absolute disgrace that is this ND team.

And if it wasn't apparent enough, this ND team should hang their heads in shame.

The knee jerk reaction is to completely give up on a QB's career after 60 minutes of bad. Thankfully I'm not of that mindset.

The Mom Hugger has to be better, but he's got the stuff around him right now to allow him time. Just not an interior offensive line. My God, horrible. Just get three dudes from Bama and or UGA in the draft. They have the IOL market cornered in 2025.

I liked the Titans game plan. They looked solid in the first half. Even in the second half defensively they were stout. First time HC so there wasn't much on them film wise. No NFC North games until November!

The 33rd pick is seemingly coming too because the Carolina Panthers look like garbage and the Bears have their second rounder in 2025.

Now tell me how you feel about Riley Leonard…

I really like Poles but my one major critique has been his handling of the OL, especially for someone who prides himself on scouting the trenches. Hopefully, Bates can fill the center position once he's fully healthy.

All that said, it was awesome hearing Soldier rocking like that again. Stadium was damn near shaking for the pick 6.

They need to get the center position stabilized and get Teven Jenkins back on track. I thought pass protection was pretty good overall.

The Bears initial PFF grades (subject to change)
Offense
Darnell Wright: 80
Braxton Jones: 69.6
Nate Davis: 69.3
Teven Jenkins: 68.3
Swift: 64.6

Caleb: 44.6

This probably won't cut it.

Defense:
Jaylon Johnson: 92.3
Darrell Taylor: 86.6
TJ Edwards: 82
Tyrique Stevenson: 77.5
Andrew Billings: 72.6

THIS will cut it.

The OL just didn't seem to be on the same page either. I haven't watched the broadcast but it sure felt like the Titans were consistently getting pressure with 4. Maybe that was CW holding the ball too long or it just emphasizes the instability at the center position.

Also, I don't expect this to be a consistent issue but Keenan Allen cannot drop that TD before halftime

They were getting pressure with four. The center position has a great deal to do with that.

I've never understood the concept of OL "chemistry." You play your position and do your job. Five people doing that should equate to success. It's simple Belichick/Saban mindset.

There wasn't a great deal of consistency. I thought Wright played well. There was a lot of pressure from the interior though.

This offense is going to work if CW can get the ball out fast. He thrived at OU and SC when that was the case.

i'm a titans fan.

this weekend of football. fade me fam.

 

[pumpdog20]

If anything, the Coddled Man didn't do any better or worse then the guy he replaced. Progress I suppose.

 

[NDRock]

Watched the game yesterday and as I live in Tennessee I was rooting for the Titans. I really like seeing Caleb Williams in the NFL as he’s easily my favorite athlete to root against. Gonna be a fun ride.
