QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 06:08 PM) It'll be interesting to see if they keep Vereen in that role or if they call up Frey/Louis-Jean. I was big on Vereen in the offseason and remember saying if he failed at FS he should have a chance to play CB. I have to imagine Frey is coming up. We are down 2 cbs so no chance we walk into the game with just 3 active (I don't know McManis' injury at this point). Louis-Jean is obviously very talented but I think he is too young to trust back there. I'd prefer Frey's experience.

Isaiah Briscoe scheduled a campus visit for Mizzou next month out of nowhere. Were not originally in his top 5. Will be interesting to see if things heat up.

Bears had 4 rooks in on that last drive and held their own (got them to 4th down twice). There was also some nifty stuff, like shea blitzing and going straight up the outside which was supposed to have the effect of the Justin Smith move (pushing the offensive blockers out to give space to the end. Allen couldn't get free but I thought it was a pretty cool blitz.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 04:14 PM) People told me I was overreacting. I almost never overreact. Wrong...certainly wrong plenty of times, but overreacting is not my forte and Joey D is absolutely the worst. Opening kick-off, starting from where we did...awful. Then we have the blocked punt...uggh. Only bright side was after that we cleaned a few things up, but even then, our guys on ST couldn't get off blocks to save their lives. We had one punt of net 20 where we had guys getting blocked for what looked like literally 3 to 4 seconds down the field. It was brutal how bad and how unable to get into the coverage area our unit was. How about the 4 penalties on one punt?

Cutler will get his due, but the d and their takeaways and QB pressure won that game. At the end even the option wasn't working!

That was an incredible and gutsy performance tonight. I thought this would be just like the 2012 game. It wasn't they fought their asses off. Good job coaches, except Decamillis.

Why is clock not running? Edit It was because of a SF timeout, past self.

Damn, Kaep is tough. Gotta rush him to disrupt, but he is so good at getting free. Need really disciplined secondary and d ends to end this game. Or another big play... Fuller?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 03:27 AM) I disagree with that decision I was thinking same but I can see both ways. They Have to go for two now. It's a 50% conversion percentage, but I imagine higher for miners with a mobile QB

Now finish this freakin drive in the end zone.

Wow. I did not think the Bears had this in them. I am very impressed by their heart.

Wow what a freaking play by fuller.

Ratliff getting evaluated for a concussion. Tillman done for career. McManus and conte out. It's not enough that we will likely lose, we have to destroy any chances of recovering this year.

Sorry we do. It is "throw two yard routes to Forte"...and success!

We have no offensive gameplan.

Great stop.

This is what I expected coming out at half. That's why the first drive was such a faulure

Fuller burned. Press coverage on 3 rd and 10

Allen getting owned.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 03:22 AM) I wonder if Jay got popped in the ribs or sternum He immediately had his arms up. I hope it was just the wind getting knocked out.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 03:17 AM) If not for that botched Bennett review we could be looking at 10-17 game at least, perhaps even a 14-17 game. Botched Bennett review and delay of game and it's hopefully 14-10

Great series again. Two incomplete 0 yard passes

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Sep 15, 2014 -> 03:03 AM) Trestman offensive genius status taking a huge hit tonight. I miss the days when we thought he was just an offensive coordinator.

Honestly I'm guessing the trestman experience ends with three years of no playoffs, his firing and hiring of some meathead Rex Ryan character and we are where we were 20 years ago.

Trestman is such a great coach. Our players are so disciplined. They play great d and special teams and have amazing offensive game plans.
