Week 11:


Week 12:


Week 13:


Swept in a row by your division at the end, 2 games at home.

But what’d he do from a coaching standpoint the first 2 games on top of the clock management yesterday? A blocked field goal alone doesn’t seem firing worthy. Did he do dumb shyt like what John Harbaugh did for example vs Oakland and Washington in 2016 that cost them both games in back to back weeks by taking penalties after a 3rd down stop to try pushing them out of field goal range only to give up touchdowns on said drives and lose by less than 3 and then miss the playoffs by 1 game?

Clock management was the issue that I'm referring to regarding the previous games. I'm talking about losing 3 division games by the last play of the game is incredibly bad...you can't let every game get to that point.

He is a bad coach. I'm not sure what you're looking for here...

Bears fans rejoicing only to get hit with anther shytty coach for the the next 4 to 5 years. the cycle continues :wow:

have the female version of Jones as your owner brehs :russ:

It's gonna be a 'Yes Man', one who is deep into Analytics... and thinks of making the Bears a Wildcat-offensive team to "Utilize their Abilities to their FULLEST POTENTIAL". Kmet at QB, Williams at WR, Swift at TE; goofy... shyt.

Watching bears games and stats be funny posting the graphics in random thoughts thread on sundays

The packers game was 1st game they've held 1st quarter lead all year

The Caleb sack numbers are crazy

The packers watched film and kinda had a tell on Santos kicking low
They expected the bears to try and get more yards but no they didnt

The vikings had the same story about Santos

They letting Washington get extra yards before the hail Mary and then saying it didn't really matter in the hail mary

I think last year was 1st time bears won back to back games in the Flus time coaching

HOW THE BEARS GOT A TRASH D?

HELD THE PACKERS AND LIONS
TO 20 AND 23

:devil:
:evil:

Yeah that defense is not bad at all. Completely shut down the lions at times and held them to a lot of Fgs that could have and should've been TD drives, and forced a crucial goal line turnover.

19th in total yards. 13th in passing only because their run D is weak as fukk (25th). Decent in points allowed and horrible in takeaways.
Bear fans were talking about how their D was elite when they farrrr from it. id say decent defense as of now

Losing 3 games to your divisional rivals on the last play of the game in consecutive games itself is relatively terminable....yesterday was definitely a clean your desk moment. Props to the bears for pulling the trigger.

*edit - i can't give the bears props for shyt :mjlol:
lol you can’t give props but I can give negs

Funny how life works

Do ppl realize Caleb is a rookie. He should get zero blame for anything at this stage of his career. Zero.


5 picks with as a rookie with most of the games having no run game to compensate is crazy.

People
Just dislike he confident in himself and zesty. If Caleb was more of a conventional brother theyd be hyping him. He got similar stats to Jayden with a noticeably worse coach

the only people wanting to act like he’s a “bust” are the people that predetermined their feelings before the season even started

we’ve seen him play excellent ball for two, separate 3 game stretches now. And that’s with an OC that was so bad players had to ask for him to be removed & a head coach who is the first midseason firing in a franchise that’s been around for over 100 years
