Typical ugly Bears game today. Hot take on the way....
1) Aside from the INT, I thought Justin Fields played well. WR1 (Robinson) dropped a sure-as-shit TD pass and had a 50/50 ball roll right off his fingers in the end zone. That type of shit just CANNOT happen, especially for a WR reportedly looking for $20+ million per year in his next contract.
2) Matt Nagy's playcalling continues to be a punch line around the NFL. You've got the running game working well but the only playaction you use is from the read option? How the hell is that helping your young QB?? Give him some easy throws off of boot action to help him. Utilize his mobility and ability to throw on the run for fuck sake. If anything stunts Fields growth this season, it's going to be Matt Nagy's playcalling. He's just not good at it.
3) The penalties were killer and I think after today Chicago should be #1 in the league in that category. Be You!
4) Mustipher and Ifedi were trash today. If there was pressure coming up the middle, there's a really good chance Mustipher whiffed on his guy. Not a fan. As for Ifedi, aside from the fact that Chicago has no depth, he really has no business starting on an NFL O-line.
5) Defense was pretty impressive and Jaylon Johnson continues to cement himself as a stud in the defensive backfield. Eddie Jackson made a tackle which is encouraging because after last week i just assumed that he was playing two-hand touch.
