Rams Week 1

[Monster]

Goff was a liability. So is Stafford.

I’m not sold on that... I think Stafford is a significant improvement.
I don’t recall Detroit having a team like LA. The D alone will keep them in games.

Are people going to be surprised at how shitty this team looks with an inept offense and an aging, crumbling defense that has been held together with dental floss and duct tape? This is the year when the dam breaks for this defense.

Long term, I think the Bears might be O.K., snagging their franchise QB and shoring up the trenches. But in the meantime, they might be pretty shitty, guys.

Defense should be better or about equal to last year. Offensively they should be better in theory even if fields doesn’t start. I still don’t have high expectations, but I’d be surprised if he won less than 8 games, which isn’t good….but maybe not quite shitty either

Man. Looking forward to it....

Last year, I was at Caesars Palace in Vegas, front row with my (now) ex girl friend watching the game on a big ass screen, sitting next to this cool old guy who was a Patriots fan, but was rooting for the Bears and put money on it...lol... The volume in there was crazy. Wild night...

We of course got destroyed(thanks offense), but I will never forget that memory....

BEARS

If Floyd hurts Dalton I will love every moment of it.

If he sacks/ causes havoc for fields I will be very mad.

Why would you be happy Floyd hurt Dalton? Dalton didn't give himself a contract to play for the bears. He's a good dude and a solid back up. Cheering for him to get injured is pretty fucked up

Yeah, night games suck

I'm in the US and I hate night games as well. Noon at Soldier Field, sunny (or snowy) day is my preference.

Interesting game. I don't think Pitt is going to be very good.

My gut is telling me that the league will be talking about Desai's "Mad Scientist" blitzes before the end of the season.

I’m hoping that Desai becomes a great play caller

Beside Fields, Desai might be the biggest factor this season. Hope he learned a lot from Fangio.

Steelers have lost the last 3 games--all close games.--since Urlacher got destroyed by Bettis at the goal line in 2005

Rams are 7pt favorites in week 1

 

[Chicago4Life]

its not going to be as scary as what we saw last season...staley being gone will be a huge difference...going from staley to morris is a pretty big downgrade for their defense. i know we havent seen desai call plays yet but at the very least i think his floor is pagano which would be average. Add in goldman being back and the bears run defense will be a real force to deal with.

if nagy and red rifle can call/play a decent game, they have a good chance to win on the road.

I agree.

One quote I read from Desai and loved what it said mentioned that coverage will be most important and pressure will follow from that. That sounds more like Fangio mentality.

Fields has red hair?

 

[Rob219_CBMB]

This makes me feel like the NFL thinks that Fields starts week 1.

more like the media chacne to blast the bears for one last time after a sunday night game..up until Fields actually starts.

yea i think a lot will depend on desai, no doubt i like he's from the fangio school of coaching but as a first time playcaller thats where i'm interested in seeing how he does...luckily he can rely on pettine for advice but we'll see...

Yeah, but they kinda lost the last one due to Tarik Cohen.
