Couldn't disagree more. If you wait until the 4th quarter to watch Mitch Trubisky operate when they are down by over 3 scores then the games can be really exciting. uke:Wrigley said:This team is just boring, period
They are almost painful to watch
Hes learning from Jimmy Graham. How to be a stiff with suspect hands.Homer thoughts on Cole Kmet?

They should have drafted Claypool, that was the need (outside of OL). They had a bunch of TE's already. Nagy couldn't make them productive, but Shaheen and Burton are having good seasons elsewhere. I have zero confidence that Nagy can get the most out of any talent, not just Kmet. We don't know how good he is, he's rarely on the field. It's like the Bears rushing 5-10 times in a loss, then Nagy says how they have to run more. Well, you're the HC, YOU call the plays.Homer thoughts on Cole Kmet?

If you have a bad OL, why tax it by passing more? Don't get me started on those dumb jet sweeps to Cordalle Patterson either.Welcome to the Reid coaching tree. They all need to run more
Have you watched Philly?? Wentz is terrible, the OL is on its 11th combination and Pederson throws it 50 times a game. The guy from CLE gets it. Run heavy offense with a poor QB produces winsIf you have a bad OL, why tax it by passing more? Don't get me started on those dumb jet sweeps to Cordalle Patterson either.
They are very similar to the Bears. Wentz has turned into Jay Cutler with the poor passing mechanics.Have you watched Philly?? Wentz is terrible, the OL is on its 11th combination and Pederson throws it 50 times a game. The guy from CLE gets it. Run heavy offense with a poor QB produces wins
The game is geared to offense. I wouldn't want a defensive coach as my HC. If they make a change, it wouldn't surprise me if they go the D route though.What do you all think of Leslie Frazier as a HC candidate to replace Nagy?
Yea, how's that been working out for us lately? I think I'd prefer a Defensive coach that doesn't want to control the Offense and call the plays. I want the O Coordinator to do that. I don't want the HC micro-managing.The game is geared to offense. I wouldn't want a defensive coach as my HC. If they make a change, it wouldn't surprise me if they go the D route though.
I agree it's going to be a loss, but if we can manage to put up 30+ points again, which should be possible on the Packers D, I won't consider it an embarrassment. Not too much shame losing to one of the best QB's to play the game as long as you don't get destroyed.It's hard to think this will be anything other than an embarrassing loss for the Bears.
I think the Bears are capable of beating them. Green Bay is good. Not great. But past history says the Bears will get humiliated.I agree it's going to be a loss, but if we can manage to put up 30+ points again, which should be possible on the Packers D, I won't consider it an embarrassment.

D line just has to take over. Pace has put so much money there, if they can't show up and take over a game like today, it's another Pace bust.I think the Bears are capable of beating them. Green Bay is good. Not great. But past history says the Bears will get humiliated.
The defense has bee very mediocre this season. Considering what they've invested in this defense, that's an absolute failure. They need to clean house again, but doubt that happens or would even matter.The Tick said:D line just has to take over.

Yeah really, I think we'd both rather have Floyd at 6M/ year right now rather than Quinn at 14M/ year. Solid vs the run, and could get "close" to the QB just as well as Quinn has been able to.The defense has bee very mediocre this season.

Floyd having a great year and was homegrown. Add it to the list of blunders by Pace. It's like everything I see the Bears do and expected to happen, the opposite happens and they underachieve. Done believing in this team but still hope they can beat the Packers.Yeah really, I think we'd both rather have Floyd at 6M/ year right now rather than Quinn at 14M/ year.

Ok, I agree, this was another embarrassing loss for the bears.flapgreen said:It's hard to think this will be anything other than an embarrassing loss for the Bears.
So exciting - 1 and done uke:. Aren't you a Chiefs fan?Playoffs Baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, if I remember correctly he's a Panther's fan and started trolling in here to make fun of the bears signing john fox.So exciting - 1 and done uke:. Aren't you a Chiefs fan?
Mostly correct although I was a fan from the Avellini and Evans days. While my fandom changed, my dislike of the Packers remains strong.No, if I remember correctly he's a Panther's fan and started trolling in here to make fun of the bears signing john fox.
That's right - @Stinkin Ref is the Chiefs fan. Unfortunately the Bears/Packers rivalry has been one sided. I am going to go out on a limb and say it has something to do with the Bears having QB issues. I know this is a unique thought and isn't well documentedMostly correct although I was a fan from the Avellini and Evans days. While my fandom changed, my dislike of the Packers remains strong.
Well I guess if you still have a strong dislike of the Packers you can't be all bad .BassNBrew said:Mostly correct although I was a fan from the Avellini and Evans days. While my fandom changed, my dislike of the Packers remains strong.
With this team the floor is higher, but the ceiling is low. It feels like more of the Lovie Smith Era. They beat the teams they are supposed to, and lose to the ones that are better, with the exception of TB. It's your basic 8-8 team. They spent big money on a D, only to see that ship sailing away. Robert Quinn was a bust.I don't understand how a fan can be disappointed in their team making the playoffs. Anything can happen. Turnovers, injuries, whatever. Win four games and you're Super Bowl champions. It's unlikely, but you never know. And 18 fan bases are just watching games this weekend. Your team is still in it. That's something.
Exactly. I’m a Raider fan and still root for Mack. I’m glad he gets to be in the playoffs this season.I don't understand how a fan can be disappointed in their team making the playoffs.

Have a little imagination. There have been worse, but the Bears don't deserve it and wouldn't be in without there being 7 teams. Also, the Redskins would have more wins if they'd had Smith playing from the beginning. And they're on a 5 game winning streak.I would have to argue with the title of this thread - Most undeserving playoff team in history.
The Washington Football team got rescued by Sudfeld. I think they are equally as bad even if they didn't go through a 6 game losing streak. There have also been teams that have made the playoffs with losing records.
You have to follow the Bears closely to understand it. They're only in because of 7 teams being allowed in. The GM mortgaged the future coming into this year and ended up with a WORSE defense, QB, and cap situation going forward. And same record as last year. Everyone knows they're not going anywhere in the playoffs. Gonna be a long few years ahead.I don't understand how a fan can be disappointed in their team making the playoffs. Anything can happen.
