I will give them credit, they are looking much better with the run plays being called. Some adjustments have been made because Montgomery wasn't getting hit behind the LOS. Once he gets through the hole, he gets 7-10 yards every time. He is fun to watch. The O-Line was mauling. I would like to see that the rest of the game.

I don't know what happened to GB but they look terrible and have not looked good in weeks. They just beat MIN last week, so they will have the edge against them. It depends on which Cousins shows up.

Yeah, he almost missed one, but a make is a make, so I would be critical. It's nice to have short FG's and XP's be automatic again.

Holy crap a TD scoring drive. They run the ball down the Vikings throats, with only one pass, and Montgomery finishes it off with a crazy 14-yard TD run where he carried 4 defenders with him for 5 yards into the end zone. This needs to be the team's identity on offense, smashmouth football that sets up the play action pass game. Montgomery was dominant on this drive and the O-Line did great giving him some room and time to get to the 2nd level.

We really need a Raiders loss for our draft pick, or if they win, we need them to not make the playoffs with one of these teams to lose in the late games: Ravens, Texans, or Colts.

In other news, the Lions are up 17-3 against the Packers at the half. If Packers lose, the Saints, who are killing the Panthers would take the #2 seed and get a bye. That would setup a MIN (6) at GB (3) Wild Card Round matchup.

Then the defense shits the bed and Boone breaks another long run. Vikings get a late FG. Bears 11-6 at halftime against Vikings backups.

3rd FG, Nagy not even attempting a 4th and 4.

I really like that idea. He is fast and violent with cover skills. I would love to have Kwit and KPL back.

Kwit with another huge TFL for a safety this time. 8-3 Bears.

A long throw down field, first read, Trubisky overthrows Wims by 6 feet and behind him. Hilariously bad at this point. His accuracy past 5 yards is absolutely atrocious. I hope this is Trubisky's last game as a Bear. He just doesn't have it. It sucks because we get to watch Mahomes and Watson tear it up for the next 15-20 years. We need to cut sling now and move on from this huge mistake.

Tarik Lateral Running Cohen takes a draw play where he has 5+ yards straight ahead, but decides to try to pop it outside (like he always does) and takes a 1-yard loss. Mind boggling.

So even when Trubisky makes a throw, ARob has to almost stop his route to catch the ball. So it's a completion, but no chance for YAC.

So Miller is back returning kickoffs and gets injured on the return. This team is a hot mess. Why is Miller returning kicks? If he is your future WR2, there is no reason risking injury on a kick off. This team is sorely mismanaged, Nagy needs to be held accountable for this at some point.

If there is one player I don't want to see play another game in a Bears jersey, it's Floyd. He has been a total bust as a top 10 pick, he is the ultimate tweener who is good at nothing, and average a lot of things. That equates to a 3rd Down Specialist and not an every down starter.

Our vaunted defense holds the Vikings scrubs to a FG. They can't even pitch a shutout against practice squad players.

We are too small on the D-Line, we need some bigger dudes to clog up the lanes. Nichols and RRH are not it.

So Mike Boone runs around Floyd who doesn't keep the edge, then Boone runs over Fuller for a 1st Down.

Kwit is looking good, makes a huge TFL.

Yeah, this is bad. We should have 14 pts right now and looking to score 40+ on this team. Mannion looks better than Trubisky and Mannion is playing with 2nd and 3rd stringers. He is actually making NFL throws.

Yeah, very few QBs would be successful with this garbage O-Line. However, if we can get one of the QBs that have played above-average in DVOA, they would be an upgrade over Trubisky immediately. Then you add an improved O-Line and the offense magically becomes a top-15 unit.

Lucas doesn't even look at the DE on his side on 3rd Down as Trubisky gets sacked and they settle for another RZ FG. This is laughable. We can't score a TD against backups, how embarrassing.

Yeah, he is a keeper. Him with Roquan would be great duo inside. They both can cover a lot of ground.

Trubisky only throwing to first read. On 3rd Down, Safety knew it and almost jumped a pass to ARob. Everything is short. Nothing down field.

Vikings 3rd String RB fumbles hand-off, Bears get the ball. Offense drives down the field, then like the ole days, can't get a TD, so they settle for a short RZ FG. Bears 3-0. On Vikings next drive, RB doesn't catch short pass and the bounce pops right into KPL's hands for the INT. One silver lining is I think we found our new starting ILB in KPL. He is all over the field, makes hard hits, and can rush the passer.
