Maybe they can win something so we don't have to feel sorry for them anymore.

AntMill looks very promising and Ak47 Robinson looks like he's almost 90% and legit af. I think they can raise Mitchell's play by being true pros. Cohen a crazy assed joker. And Howard is looking like a 4 down bacc, Mitchell will look better if he figures out who to get the ball to.

you mean the defense that lost 2 All-Pros and was nothing but average after Harris went down?
Or the 2013 Seahawks or 2015 Broncos defenses that had top defenses?

brilliant reply....
Stat Padford showed up just in time yesterday to lead his team to a 3pt loss in garbage time instead of a 17pt loss!
Oh happy times!

Over the first 2 games yes. We'll see over the course of the season, Trubisky was a bit disappointing today but it wasn't the worst performance in the world. He made some bad plays along with some good ones.
We'll see if he improves as he gets more comfortable in the offense.
Nagy's play-calling was improved for this game (attacked the run when he really needed to). Allen Robinson can really ball too.

Yeah Seattle had an offense but they ranked #1 in Defensive DVOA and in most other metrics and dominated one of the best offenses in history

And the 2015 Broncos won a SB with a terribly awful Manning. Ironic that his defense finally won him a title instead of him carrying the team

Nagy fucked up the play calling at the end of the first half though. He could have easily run down the clock, but he inexplicably chose to hurry up the offense and ended up giving the ball back to Seattle with over a minute left. The Bears hiked the ball with the clock running at 1:30 and about 30 seconds left on the play clock; I couldn't understand it. Seattle got the ball back and ended up getting a FG out of it, which the Bears totally gifted to them.

he was being aggressive and trying to score more points......didn't he get faulted for not doing that last week?
I'll take erring on aggressiveness over too much conservative gameplay...

And Bitch Bustisky did what exactly? 17 Points against that D? 200 yds? A shovel pass behind the line of scrimmage for a TD? Color me not impressed........

It is much better to be 0-2 with good QB stats than 1-1......how long has stafford been in the league?
He and Mitch are tied for playoff wins......

one day he'll realize Stafford will never lead that franchise to a playoff victory while he compiles up useless inflated stats. It's who Stafford was in college.

Trubisky isn't old enough to have seen the last Lions playoff win.

I think it was a much different situation than last week. Last week, he turned conservative for the entire second half. Today, on that particular play, he could have just waited 30 more seconds to hike the ball, and Seattle most likely won't have time to kick a FG when they get the ball back. That's not conservative, that's just smart football. Instead, Seattle gets a FG, thereby nullifying the Bears' FG.

I'd have to go back and rewatch....there are a few reasons why you may want to snap the ball quickly.

If we had Kirk Cousins, we would be contenders NOW. This kid better improve rapidly and on a weekly basis because this team is ready. We cannot afford for him to develop at a snails pace.

I actually didn't mind too much whenever the offense left the field because this defense is so fun to watch and I actually had confidence that Seattle was not going to move the ball.

Maybe he did, but if that's what it takes for Mitch to improve then so be it.
