And he did that body twist like “it’s gonna hook and come back” LMAO I was certain that it was blocked. I thought there was no way he could.kick it that bad without someone getting a hand on it. I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you don't have a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Eh, the Bears aren't making the playoffs this year so let them keep losing. Better draft position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Crazy how this 2018 QB class went from can't miss to meh. If Bears are top 5 and the QBs stock for 2-3 is still high, they could do well to trade down and recoup. Looking forward to new coach. I think Pace hopefully is learning on job. But if I was fox I would be pissed over the kicker situation and the bargain basement hunting on cornerbacks. We wouldn't be a playoff team either year, but with a real kicker I could see 3-4 more wins on Fox's resume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Outside of Floyd's injury, that was a solid game. Trubisky looked like he's making strides and we got close enough to blow it with a kicker who won't be around long-term. I still am a fan of continuity so I think it sucks we didn't take bigger steps forward this year, albeit, I still see us winning a few games late (given the schedule). Loggains called a much better game this week. I also will also stick to my guns that things could be worse...we could have handled our QB situation like Cleveland / Buffalo.

I am hoping one of the QB's is there when we are picking and we can move down to accumulate some picks. I really hope Floyd's injury is not as bad as it seemed.

They'll go top 5, but after we picked Trubisky people were saying we should have waited and tanked this year because at that time this was considered a possible 2003 QB draft. They'll be drafted high because the best QBs always do, but I don't think people feel they are can't miss like they used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to be learning and that is a good thing. He needs a boot camp to get his footwork corrected when under pressure but he was so much better against pressure this week then any previous week. Lions D isn't that good, but he actually had a pretty high completion rate under duress this week and he got rid of the ball much quicker at times. Helped that Kyle Long was back (outside of that awful penalty). Marcus Wheaton was actually open those two bad throws from Trubisky...would be nice to get a Wheaton sighting as he has talent (imo). Inman makes the receiving corps so much better (not that it says much). They at least have two wideouts who are NFL players now (not counting Wheaton who has not been able to stay on the field). Any updates on White...we should see him back to practice pretty quick (if he has a chance at getting out there). Shaheen actually got me excited...showed some solid hands and playmaking ability. Also saw him make a couple nice blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's drafting is just horrific. So far they've only hit on a cant-miss pass rusher. Their handling of QB and S were just stupid moronic decisions.

Dick Allen Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) I listened to the OB, Hampton and Koz show yesterday, and again according to them, the loss was all John Fox. I think Fox needs to go, but these guys are getting ridiculous, especially since the person they want to replace him and supposedly is one of the worlds greatest offensive minds, just got fired today as OC of the Broncos. Apparently it isn't his fault they haven't scored 20 points in 7 of their last 8 games. Edited November 20, 2017 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've drafted a lot of garbage, but they've also had a consistent turnover in their front offices. New regimes have strong biases towards their players so if you are consistently changing regimes you are consistently turning over entire rosters, which just makes things so much harder to succeed. The best franchises have had long-term stability. Sometimes I legitimately wonder how much "smarter" the better franchises are then the others or if it is more they are just more patient and think more "long". You really put yourself at a disadvantage when you are consistently kicking people to the curb. Look at the Bengals (and yes, they suck this year), but they stuck with Marvin Lewis and their franchise was largely stabilized (especially relative to what it was). The Raiders could have axed Reggie McKenzie (and while they are having a bad year), early in McKenzie's tenure, they decided to stick with him and give him the "long" play and while the Raiders are struggling this year, their long-term track outlook still looks pretty positive.

Chisoxfn Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 You know what worries me about Cooter (Lions OC), the stat that they haven't had a 100 yard rusher in 60+ games. How is that even possible? I truly believe that to win in this league, you need to be able to run the football (especially somewhere like Chicago). It isn't like the Lions haven't invested in running backs (they've draft a decent number of them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
