    Our O-line with the exception of Center is relatively skilled and young. With time it can be the best Oline in the league. Getting Tev back was huge, but he split a lot of reps, which i hope is just a "lets get him worked back into the rotation thing" and not a "lets split his reps just cuz" because there was a clear difference between when he was in the game and when he wasnt. He had a massive impact on our successful drives.

    JF1, if you're listenting to some of these Podcasts, ask for a Trade to the ATLANTA FALCONS!!! CHICAGO SPORTS MEDIA and BEARS NATION are DONE WITH YOU, GETSY, and FLUS! DA BEARS will lose several more this season and they'll want heads rolling and make room for CALEB and CO. DADDY CALEB will choose the new OC to go with his SON….talk about the patients running the Asylum! And the cycle will continue in Chicago. IN ATLANTA, it's always 72 degrees and no precipitation issues or WIND in the MERCEDES BENZ DOME!!! Let CALEB deal with the winter elements after spending all his time slinging passes in sunny Southern California!! In Atlanta, Home cooking is provided for free, too!! They can get the receivers in the DRAFT or FREE AGENCY and you have BIJON ROBINSON at RB!! FALCON FANS will stick by you and hopefully ARTHURS BLANK AND SMITH are watching film from the last two weeks!!

    Josh needs to have his own or co-host a Sports Talk radio show segment!! Great show!

    I like Josh's opinion that Borom has to take the game to the DE at times. Larry gave up too many inside moves. Larry could've also been called for holds. Still, keep fighting Larry.

    Man, everyone so positive. After all of you calling for heads to roll. The Qb, the coaches, the GM. Quiet as a church in the motherf now.

    10 days til the next game. Need Braxton Jones back asap . That line heals up, offense is better, defense off the field more and gets better, secondary gets healed and found some good depth there, this team might have dug too deep a hole but I think everyone just wants to see a competitive team down the stretch with draft capital and money to build upon and they’ll be happy!

  10. ColonialJim91

    Still have big questions about coaching but at least it looks like they are learning from their failure and that’s all anyone can hope for if you’re not making changes just yet.

    I think Patrick is a better option at starting C than Whitehair. Whitehair is trying hard, but he is done.

    Moore was a lucky guess for this guy definitely over paid anybody can see talent but its just this guy's unique way of describing it. He is a glorified car salesman! So now he comes out of his hole he has dug himself into for the last 20 or how many years he has been doing it. As far as im concerned he can craw back in it because he has no eye for defensive talent because we have none.

    No, I think the real reason is because Justin didn’t trust himself and was not quite trusting his receivers and afraid to throw an interception… He was afraid of losing more than winning… And the past two games he finally got rid of those fears and had his confidence built up because I’m sure he was sick of the Bears media and fans talking shit about him saying they should trade him and draft another quarterback… I never would do that I always believed he would become a great quarterback without a doubt from the day we drafted him… But people seem to forget in Chicago especially Bears media and fans, they have no fucking patience… They want everything to happen immediately… It’s totally unrealistic and it’s ridiculous because after so many years of watching the Bears we know it takes at least four or five years to rebuild a team… We only have one first round pick on defense, and three first round picks on office… That’s it… so compared to so many teams in the NFL… We just don’t match up quite yet… But in two or three years… This team will be most definitely on the hunt for the playoffs and Super Bowl… I truly believe that I have never lost my confidence in him and I believe Justin is confident and just willing to let it loose without worrying and that’s why he’s playing better because it’s all about confidence when it comes to being a quarterback… He’s trusting himself and the receivers… He still is taking baby steps moving forward to get better but it’s going to happen… So you guys just need to chill out and just relax don’t worry about the record because it doesn’t matter, the draft still matters… And if we can get the number one pick again and trade down… Why not? What’s the point of winning six games? It doesn’t do anything for us except take us out of the top three possibly…

  18. FRANZ DOREZA

    Unlike most of the Bears media and some of the fans, I was never worried about Justin Fields becoming exactly what I expected him to be, the best quarterback in Bears franchise history… Things might still go up and down but I know Justin is confident, he’s got confidence in his players and he can still played better which is kind of scary when you think about it… He’s already surpassed other guys who are considered elite… Well Justin will be there he is going to be one of the elite quarterbacks in the next year or two. And he’s already showing it in the last two games… Even though we have so much of a gap in talent.

    My problem with the coaching is that we saw this same crap last season for the first several weeks. They refused to let Justin Play to his strengths for the most part, and it showed. Then, they finally adjusted and he was one of the most explosive players in the league…this season, they start out making the same mistakes they made at the start of last season. This tells me the coaches aren't interested in actually playing to his abilities, and they are trying their damnedest to make him into a QB that he isn't…why not build off of last season from the start? Mix in more of what you want to see him do but keep that flexibility to run or make plays…last season when he had to run, he was still keeping his eyes downfield but had nobody to throw to most of the time. This season is a different story. DJ is there, him being there means others are also getting open more, especially on plays where Justin might have to run a bit.

    Too many of our problems seem to stem from the play calling and stubborn coaching. Sure, they finally relented, but that's after we started 0-4 and people were calling for them to be fired. If we keep everyone around, are we starting off next season with the same mistakes? Is twice enough to call it a pattern or do we need to see it three times in a row?

    I've been hard on the Bears this year in my comments, but when I look back on the Lions last year….They started 1-6 & everyone was calling for the head coaches head….Then they rattled off 10 straight wins….I'd love to see a similar productive improvement!😎👍
