Anyone else getting a little nervous?

[nvanprooyen]

Looking at this on paper, the Bears should absolutely own the Dolphins on defense. And while the Dolphins pass defense is good, committing to the run early to wear them down and open up the passing game later on seems like a safe and viable strategy. If the offense can manage like 14 - 17 pts, protect the ball, and control TOP I don't see how we can lose.

And I don't like it. Feels like a trap game. But it seems like the team mentality is solid, so hopefully this isn't the case. I think I'm just not used to them being good and all the media attention.

Just a teeny tiny bit nervous for the same reasons now that I read this thread. Thanks a lot for that. I'm going back to the destroy everything thread now.

If the defense is as good as most feel it is, I think it will be enough to win this game even if the offense goes back to being pretty lackluster with Trubisky. Tannehill doesn't deal well under pressure. Really, the Dolphins offense isn't that dangerous or even very good. I expect the Bears D to crush them.

Think it will be close. Should be loads of Bear fans there though

 

[Chicago4Life]

it could very well be a trap game but i feel like nagy will keep them grounded and not buy into the hype. He emphasized the importance of coming off a bye week so I expect the bears come out strong on both sides of the ball.

The Bears have SUCKED for years. No game is a fucking "trap" game... Put that stack of pringles chips on your shoulder and beat their ass.

 

[NCChiFan]

Tannahill is who should be feeling nervous.

Goddammit, only 3 days until they play again and the Bearfansz pessimiszm is back.

I think at this point it is fairly reasonable to be looking around for when the other foot is going to drop.

I don't really buy into trap games with this Bears team. Mitch is way too dedicated and a perfectionist who doesn't take any team lightly, and the defense are all out savages.

I was over the moon until I saw this thread

I'm not being pessimistic. I'm being overly optimistic, and that gives me pause.

The worst thing that can happen is early turnovers that lead directly to Dolphins points. Then, the Dolphins get confident on D with the lead and the Bears could have trouble scoring like in the Arizona game. I think Miami is better than Arizona so if they were to fall in a 14 point deficit, I don't think they pull out a win this time.

I'm not nervous at all because Matt Nagy is not..

1.John Fox

2.Mark Trestman

Even if Mitch dosent play as well as he did against the Bucs this Defense is the best in the NFL in multiple categories including getting after the QB..

Well, there are already threads about the NE game, so there is that...........

Comes with being a Bear fan... even up 4 TDs I cant relax until the victory formation... and never dare believe we will win any game.
This shit is supposed to be enjoyable damnit!

Lol, nicely played.

Until the offense shows some higher level of consistency, falling 14 points down will always be a cause for concern.

I hear you. I'm the same. But I'm trying to become a more sane fan, so, you know, we don't always end up with the same results.

This is the nfl no game is a sure thing and we are on the road too.if we loose we will still be in first so I don’t look at it as a trap. We could be 1-4 without 52 lol nervous it’s a good time to be a bear fan
