My favorite teams
I agree with pretty much everything you said; here are some thoughts of my own:
He could be a decent backup, especially on run plays. But he is useless against the pass.In no particular order:
Kwiatkoski is just a guy. Roquan needs to start next game and I hope I don't see Nick on anything but special teams the rest of the year. The guy is too slow to start.
easily.Hicks, Mack and Howard are the three best players on this team by a mile.
especially with a 20pt lead. Third and short should be a no brainer.In no particular order:
Howard averaged 5.5 YPC this game.... he needed to hit at least 20 carries.
I can't speak for all Bear fans but I want a QB who expects to win and doesn't play scared. Jim McMahon was not a very good QB but he was fucking fearless and always believed his team was going to win.In no particular order:
Some of you have been ruined by watching Favre and Rodgers kick the Bears ass for the last 25 years. Your expectations for QB play is through the roof. No team in the history of the NFL has had such good QB play for such a long time.
see above. At this point I would settle for competent.In no particular order:
Trubisky..... some very bad. (that open TD to AR!!) And also more good than some of you will admit. I read people here saying he doesn't have "it". Well here's a news flash..... if your definition of "it" is Rodgers.... then maybe only 5-10 QBs in the entire history of the league have "it". The man is Jordanesque.... and Trubs sure as fuck isn't. (but that doesn't mean he can't or won't be a good QB for us for years to come) It's still too soon to say.
Excellent point. They were even quieter than that stat would suggest.In no particular order:
Where the fuck was Ant Mill and Burton? I certainly expected more than 3 catches combined for those two.
It looked to me like in the first half Trubisky was hitting open (by NFL standards) receivers. In the second he looked unsure of himself and passed on plays he would have made in the first.In no particular order:
The lack of plays downfield..... someone help me out here. Was it: Bad play calling? Our receivers not getting open? Or Trubisky missing opportunities? I really didn't see guys get that open and that was VERY concerning to me.
Those are the questions that need to be asked. Right now it is on Nagy and Trubisky. If the Bears break out a lead again does Nagy crawl into a shell like last night and the playoffs? If so I think we are screwed. Can Trubisky step up and inspire the team to the next level? Or does someone else step up and take control?In no particular order:
Nagy.... Really hated the play calling second half. Really loved it the first half. This next game will be telling. Does the team bounce back? Are they fired up? Or does this loss crush them.
Announcer Chris Collinsworth said, "this loss will set the Bears back 100 years". I really really hope he is wrong, but we'll see.In no particular order:
The Bears went toe to toe with a Super Bowl contender and almost won last night. I'm not calling this a moral victory or anything.... it's not. But the difference between the two teams doesn't feel as large as before.
