Unfortunately I think the bears finally found a QB. He is an elusive SOB and throws well on the run.
Meh.

He has his moments. The last throw was not such a good one on the run.

Long-term, a 60% completion percentage won’t cut it.

3 games in a row our Defense has had a sequence where they stopped a 3rd and 1 play, and then followed up by stopping the 4th and 1 play.

Happy for the dub, but offense has got to be more consistent. Need Love to keep drives alive and pick his spots rather than big game hunting every time. Frenchy needs to understand the importance of having a good first drive coming out at half. Run the ball and call high percentage short passes. Sometimes, just maintaining possession is as important as putting up points. And since this offense goes dark for quarters at a time, I suggest the focus needs to be more on staying on the field and moving the chains, especially if you're not lighting up the scoreboard or your D just gave up a long drive.

1 player, ONE **** player goes down and we can't stop the run. If you need everyone available, then in my opinion, you are aren't very good. Next man up has, and will ALWAYS BE A THING.
I can't think of a single team that doesn't suffer when they lose a starter like Wyatt. Even Parsons said replacing Wyatt is going to be a major challenge.

They never see the instigator. Thankfully a lot of that crap disappeared as the game wore on.
This unfortunately true, and it's unfortunately been true ever since I have watched football and probably longer. I don't think my coaches ever told me, but other players definitely either ghosted or would come out their way to yell/talk to you after the fact.

If you add that kick out of bounds ST wasn't terrible other than that. IMO that's progress. ;)
What hurt was also was that hold that forced a repunt by Whelan. You wonder how we overcame all this

Bears marched effortlessly down the field with the game on the line. Defense was just ******** it's pants. If not for Williams, we're looking at a gutless collapse folks. Enjoy the win, but the culture of the team is not what you see from a champion. I know that sounds like a Debbie downer but c'mon, put a team away for once.
The Bears are better than we want to admit. I thought they were winning games with smoke and mirrors but in the end we made more plays than they did. It is going to be a major challenge in 2 weeks. But we have a MUCH more formidable foe in Denver awaiting us next Sunday.

It is just that Caleb hit a number of on the run, desperation, low % throws. His receivers made plays, too. He was due to miss one. Fortunately, he missed and Nixon did not.

Too many on this board kept saying they are not as good as their record. Instead what they should have been saying is " They Are Who We Thought They Were Not! "

He's only a second year player. You have to admit he is better than most of the clowns they've had since 1992. He throws better on the run when he is scrambling to his right.

I hope that clown is second guessed all week. lol
Even though they scored on short yardage play action the % play there is ram it down our throat. Packers D line was gassed, our top run stopper is out, we have rookies out there, it is only one yard. AND you have an offense that put up 281 yards on the ground last week! Common sense. Ironic, because when the Packers got 1st and goal moments earlier we let Jacobs pound them for 6.

That's true, but good defenses, overcome loss of players, he's been great (most of the time) but we made a 5th rounder look like an all-pro RB in the 2nd half. Also, what did you expect Parsons to say, "who needs him"? I'm glad he wasn't like that, but still, I also wasn't surprised by his statement. I wasn't unhappy with this win, but I'll won't be excited with barely winning at home.

I don't think it was a coincidence our run D improved when Wyatt came back a few weeks ago and struggled again today without him.
