Bad Blood by John Carreyrou on his investigative work on Theranos is a highly entertaining, great read.

A few weeks ago it was decided the bears would only go as far as Trubisky would take them. He has back to back 300+ yard, 3 TD or more games with 40+ yards rushing, while the D has an atrocious game and they go 1-1. Now the narrative is actually the D is terrible and the team is bad. While it's true dink and dunk has been effective on them, that's not why they've lost. They've lost games from their defense because they've given up big plays, something they didn't do last year, and something I think they can do better at preventing. The big plays were not "coverage" issues, they were tackling issues, so the idea that they can't cover unless they have a pass rush is unfounded. And if the Patriots drop 30 on them, that's because the patriots drop 30 on pretty much every team. If you haven't noticed, they've been in the super bowl like every damn year.

Jags defense is trash, as I have just watched a game where they were bad.

That game sucked and it may end up pushing bears out of playoffs. But in one of those games where bears played bad on road in outlier weather it took 4-5 horrible plays to also cause them to lose. Any one of them not happening means bears probably win. Updating your priors dramatically from that being dramatic. Trubisky was pretty good. The d is not this bad. It’s just a bad game. it may be two bad games. But sometimes the NFL is dumb: the John fox bears beat the Steelers last year.

Don’t forget Tarik Cohen fumble, and a 3rd and long that osweiler threw into the back of a bears player and I to the hands of a dolphin for 35 yards.

It’s funny how certain they would be if they threw it for an incompletion that a run would have gained yards.

If he gets sacked they lose, if you throw a screen and lose yardage you miss fg position. There’s no reason why that play should fail.

And we are gonna lose now. Defense should be absolutely embarrassed.

That was a trrrible part of field. Any lost yardage meant you lost your chance.

It wasn’t. This is the epitome of just criticizing based on outcome.

I think by far the most painful way we are about to lose is a brock osweiler QB sneak

The way they work is they let you know the time of day or how much time is left. And you should try to maximize time left when you can score. Hire me.

I just want to win. Don’t feel good about any outcome but can’t let a game you ought to win slip away twice in first 5 games.

Our dline looks gassed, was big win getting only a fg there. Offense needs a 6minite drive or something
