The Good

That was just four days ago, but it seems like a lifetime. Maybe even a generation.
It is like there are two halves to my fandom now. The day a Chicago Bear Quarterback threw five touchdown passes in under thirty minutes and a bunch crap I will force out of my head to make room for that sixth touchdown pass.
Let's go to the film!
It was a nice move by Trey Burton and a solid assist from the sod too many peeps want to complain about, but just when I was just scolding the kid for downfield accuracy...places the ball neatly in the endzone...from the 47 yard line. This should have been the highlight reel play for Mitchell Trubisky, but no...it just was not pretty enough. Not like this....
Watching this dime of a TD over and over made me want to take back every bad word I ever spoke, wrote or even thought about Mitchell Trubisky. I wanted to write apology letters to his entire family. I wanted to send his mother a Mother's Day card for every year her beautiful and wonderful son has graced the Earth with his existence. The bitter and cruel Bear Fan in me just knew this wonderful feeling would have to come to an end soon with a heart-crushing turnover. That is just the way it goes for this team. Best to get braced up now.
Here it comes. Ten yards from the endzone. A pass over the middle. To the smallest man on the field. Gonna get picked off right about......
Holy poop! Are you serious Tampa?!? You just let one of the Lollipop Kids go right over the middle of your defense unpunished??? In fact he just stole another six points from you. That is three touchdown passes you have allowed from a QB that has barely gotten his per game TD pass average past one. This has got to be a wake up call in Tampa. Time to tighten this ship.
Wow. Just going to go down like that, Tampa? I know you have heard a lot of bad things about Josh Bellamy on this very website, but you just cannot leave him that wide open. It's just inconceivable. Did Ryan Pace pay you all to take a dive because this is just surreal.
Yes...THAT wide open. Okay. It has been an absolute blast, but it's got to be time for the Jordan Howard Show. Let's settle in for some good old clock burning......
I just.
I don't.
I mean.
Can you even?!?
Sure it was more like a light toss, but it counts. Five touchdown passes in roughly twenty-five minutes. I know I was having my doubts about you Mitchell, but good gravy...no need to rub it in.
Nah!
Rub it in, baby!!!
The Bad
I wanted to put something here about Jordan Howard only averaging 2.3 YPC during the three game win streak, but it just seems petty and I hear rumors of an injury. Plus Cohen is just too hot bench for too long...so instead I am going to give a shout-out to the 2018 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Never change, Tampa...never change.
"We were horrific in all aspects of football [Sunday], all aspects," Dirk Koetter said of his team "Based on that game today, we couldn’t make enough changes. We should fire every person that was on that field today, starting with me. That was horrific."
The Ugly
The only downside I can think of in all of this is...does the Week Five Bye seem fair now? Is this the kind of momentum you want to just toss onto the back burner for a couple of weeks? Tampa had about as a pathetic showing on defense as you can muster, but the Chicago Bear Offense finally got some swagger and now it is time to do....nothing.
Hope they can keep Mitchell pumped and figure out why Jordan Howard has become an afterthought so quickly. It is going to be the longest Bye Week in years for all of Chicago and the Greater Bear Nation. Because this team is finally firing on all cylinders for the first time in far too long and there is absolutely nothing to do but wait.
