Velus Jones is like Kindor Vildor on offense. All the dude does is make mistakes.

Velus Jones, what a waste of a draft pick. What was Poles thinking?

Exactly, it is there all game. I still don't understand it. With the way they run the ball, the quick passing game is lethal.

3 Takeaways and still losing.

If the O-Line can't block, where is the quick game? Getsy is clueless, I am telling you. You can't have 5 and 7 step drops and long developing plays with this O-Line. Watch the routes, there are no crossers, slants, etc.

Damn now Sanborn? These injuries are just piling up.

I have really soured on this coaching staff. Flus and Getsy very suspect on offense, Flus and Williams on defense. They literally blitzed a Safety leaving no one in the middle of the field for one of the easier TD draws you will ever see.

Fields with another Superman run, holy cow, this guy is off the charts.

They are saying it is a neck injury. If it is something that requires surgery, he is done. What crappy luck, it didn't even look that bad.

Line dropped to Eagles -8.5 and O/U 48.5. A lot of money on the Philly side.

If Claypool is not viewed as a WR1, then trading #33 or #34 for a WR2 is terrible value.

Thank you Cleveland for beating Baltimore.

Very true on the cycle. The cycle should be Super Bowl, NFCC, Wild Card.

33-0 at half.

Teams with a winning record and negative point differential over 30: MIN 10-4, -34 (currently at half) TEN 7-6, -35 LAC 7-6, -31 NYG 7-5-1, -33

Viqueens? Holy crap, the Colts are absolutely destroying the Vikings in Minnesota, doing it without Jonathan Taylor, insane.

Oh wow, I didn't see that. Awesome news.

He did and he can go beat GB on MNF to knock them out of the playoffs. As long as Donald and Ramsey play, they should win.

We need a better WR coach then, as it seems like none of the WRs really improved this year. Mooney got worse? Claypool hasn't improved. That entire room seems like it is underperforming.

That is the other drawback of a harder schedule, you get penalized for it. There has to be a better way to determine that. It should be head to head, then other tie breakers. SoS is out of your control. If you play all the playoff teams and got 3-14 and another team plays the same teams but one different one with one less win, they are deemed worse than you and get a better pick. That team could've also lost all its game by 1 point, yet you got blew out by 30 every game.

Claypool out. Man that trade keeps looking worse and worse. I really hope Poles and Claypool prove people wrong, but the #33 pick looks a lot better than Claypool does right now. I am very surprised that the line has stayed at -9. I guess it is because they barely beat Indy 17-16 a few weeks ago. Indy had a 6 pt lead with 2 mins remaining and lost by 1. Philly needed a 14 pt 4th quarter to win.

The Bears really got the shaft in terms of SoS this year. The NFC North in general got both East divisions which don't have a team with a losing record. So that is 8 games against winning teams, then the Bears have 2x MIN and played SF. So 11 games against winning teams, and 4 of the non-winning games are against GB and DET. That leaves ATL and HOU as the last two games. I still can't believe the Bears lost to ATL. After the next two weeks, the Bears will have played the top 4 teams in terms of DVOA, PHI, BUF, SF, and DAL. Talk about bad luck. At least the Bears get the NFC South next year. That is the only division without a team with a winning record. They also get the AFC West which has 3 teams in the bottom 10 in DVOA (LAC, LVR, and DEN). I know things change year to year, but this at least looks like a somewhat easier schedule compared to this year's.

Actually Apple backed out. It is now between Amazon (Prime) and Google (YouTube TV).

Yeah we need to have dominant lines in the trenches. We essentially need new starters at all positions on the defensive side and we definitely need a better Center and RT on the offense. That should be the priority this offseason. With the weak WR FA class, I would draft one or maybe look for a trade from a team in need of cap savings. The Saints (+54M), Bucs (+39M), and Titans (+14M) are all way over the cap for 2023. For the Saints, Michael Thomas has the biggest cap hit at $28M. I could even see a trade where they give the Bears a higher draft pick with Thomas for a lesser pick just to take on his contract, which effectively is a 2-yr deal with 2 void years. If they designated it as a post-June 1st trade, they could save $16M in 2023. He has been hit hard with random injuries, but when healthy, he is a dominant WR. For the Bucs, Evans, Godwin, or Gage could be available. Both Godwin and Gage would save them about $8M each. For the Titans, Robert Woods would save them $12M on their cap. Do any of those guys interest you?
