That scenario would still be a big win to me. Most likely be a team desperate for a qb so would also likely be a high draft pick the following year
Playoffs? I’m thinking super bowl
I don't expect wins but the Bears will surely win some games to stay out of the top 5 draft picks. Justin Fields is playing too well to keep losing games. They aren't playing playoff teams most of the way. Detroit x2, Atlanta, even the Jets and Packers aren't Miami and Dallas. If they play offense like they have the last 3 weeks in those games, they will outscore these messes of teams. Obviously, consistency is easier said than done, but they aren't playing offense like a team you don't expect to win.
That ball to ESB had some smoke on it but it hit him perfectly in the hands. That’s a ball I probably drop but a pro wideout needs to catch that every time
And that doesn't include the Pettis non-DPI call, which he still probably should have caught or the Mooney bobble which was the difference between game winning TD and game losing loss of downs.
So, this is what happens when people start giving a shit about us. We’ve all been in our little corner of the universe cheering for a doomed team fielded on the dead echo of a memory from ‘85 or the whispers of a SB loss and what could have been, and, now, people are giving a shit.
That's my guy
They can't make up for that, but they can still win games with that. They might have beaten Miami with the worst front 7 had the refs made a DPI call or if St. Brown makes a catch. They got unlucky breaks to lose to one of the top AFC teams. They can certainly beat lesser teams on their schedule, who have lesser offenses.
I don’t give a shit about Hard Knocks.
It's interesting that I've always read that there was a debate on which was more important to a pass D: front four or back four. Which is primary, the pass rush or the back end DBs. I guess our team has answered this.
No it hasn't. A mediocre secondary doesn't cover for an awful dline. Just like a mediocre DL wouldn't cover for an awful secondary. They are both necessary. Sink money in both and live with mediocrity at LB as that can certainly be covered up
