Now I have seen it all, the only receiver with any bit of upside, you release after 3 targets. smh Hopefully he makes it to the PS.

So would he be worse prepared for Nov 12th if he started Week 3 or better prepared? If you think 2 weeks practicing with starters is better than 1, then 6 weeks of practicing and playing as the #1 would be light years better than 2 weeks of practice. At this point the limiting factor is Glennon. There is zero threat for him to leave the pocket (or move in it for that matter). That frees up one defender. Since Glennon cannot throw past 10 yards, they are now stacking the box. They took away the outside run for Cohen and Howard couldn't get out of the backfield with 8 defenders at the LOS. Hoyer was similar to Glennon where he couldn't throw the deep ball, but at least Hoyer was mobile and at least threatened to run. Glennon doesn't even have that. They can rush 3-4 and safely know that they can just blanket the 4-5 skill position players going into routes with 7-8 players. It is like we are playing 10 vs 12. Also, Glennon was supposed to take care of the ball. One turnover is bad, 3, with his skill set is a cut-worthy performance. He made no pass that Trubisky couldn't make. I am sure Trubisky will have his share of mistakes, but it cannot be worse than what we are seeing out of Glennon right now. He has performed way worse than I could've ever imagined. Saw red flags in preaseason and he has been worse than that in the regular season.

Watching parts of the game again, which is hard to do at this point, made it look worse. Glennon is horrible. I have no idea what Pace was thinking or saw in this guy. His feet are in cement, he drops back and doesn't move regardless of the pressure. He has his mind made up before the play starts. It was clearly evident on the 2 INTs that were more his fault than I have ever seen it be a QB's fault. On the one to Sims, Shaheen is wide open in Glennon's field of view with room to run on the outside, yet Glennon throws to a spot where it was virtually impossible for Sims to catch the ball (defender on left, right, and over the top). Then on the pick-6, he threw to the outside, late and behind the receiver, making the play even easier for the defender. On a few plays where there was pressure, Leno got pushed into his back and instead of moving away from that pressure, Glennon instead looks at Leno like "what are you doing with my tots man?" then throws a noodle arm incompletion. The level of ineptitude is mind blowing. If we fired Fox/Loggains right now, and released Glennon/Bellamy, the team would instantly improve. I can't blame the defense for this as 20 pts came off turnovers. Outside of Mike Evans, no other receiver had more than 3 receptions or 39 yards. The leading rusher, Rodgers only had 67 yards with most in garbage time. The defense only allowed one play longer than 20 yards (21 yard pass to Jackson). Winston barely broke 200 yds passing and only had 60% completion %. It is amazing how the media will say that TB dominated us, but between the turnovers (Glennon x3 and Cohen x1) and penalties, everything was self-induced.

Jay looked pretty good, amazing to see such a mobile QB able to move around the pocket or roll-out and give himself time to make plays downfield. To think how much better he will be once he learns the offense. I would not be surprised if Miami keeps Cutler and ditches Tannehill eventually. He had a couple of crazy throws but the defense had to respect the pass, allowing Ajayi to rack up yards on the ground.

Bears bringing in Bug Howard for tryout, who played for UNC last year: https://twitter.com/Josh_Frydman/status/909597205929058304

Long was close this week, so I assume he goes next week. Wheaton has a finger issue (of all things). We won't know about Kwit or Compton until tomorrow or Tuesday.
-
Bears need to waive Glennon and Bellamy, and fire Fox and Loggains. All are worthless at this point.
-
Glennon did it again, receiver wide open on the sideline and Glennon throws to Bellamy with 2 guys on him.
-
BTW, Floyd looks like crap. Doesn't seem fast enough off the edge, and gets man-handled on everything else. Slowly moving to bust category with White.
-
Sure but zero pass rush, constant penalties giving TB's first downs ain't helping either.
-
This is beyond comical at this point. Glennon gets sacked and the ball hit out of his hand for another turnover. This dude is worse than Barkley was last year. He has no pocket awareness, no mobility, and can't read defenses. Why is he still playing?
-
F%$k me, Defense holds TB to 3 and out, and Cohen decides to catch a short bouncing punt and is immediately stripped and TB recovers in our red zone.
-
Ugh, our first play a predictable inside run for a loss. On 2nd down, we use a timeout, then Glennon hangs in the pocket and makes a late pass to Wright. On 3rd and 5, another short pass but effective to Cohen for the first. He actually threw low to Cohen which is tough considering how short he is. On next set of down, a nice quick play action pass to Bellamy for a first. TB now stacking the box consistently, Howard tackled for loss. Glennon with another short pass, but completed to Cohen. Now 3rd an 5 and he completes another inside slant over the middle. AND THERE IT IS, Glennon throws an INT into what looked like triple coverage, intended for Sims. Bears were in scoring position on the 22. Glennon never looked anywhere else, first read (which was horrible). Shaheen wide open on the sideline. After the replay, it was worse than I thought, Sims was not even turned around yet, and there were 3 TB defenders within 3 feet of Sims. That INT was 110% on Glennon, had to know the coverage and the fact that he can see 3 defenders right there.

Bears win toss and defer. 1st drive by TB results in a FG. Willie with a nice sack that forced a 3rd and Long. TB's short to intermediate passing game looked sharp, Evans especially. We are playing off a little, so hopefully we don't get burned long. Run defense was stout.

Go Bears! Bears 27-20 TB rusty without having played since Week 3 of the preseason. No running game. Big game for the Bears, no one wants to start 0-2. Big game for Glennon, former team, he knows how they operate. If he can't beat them and have a great game, who can he beat? This game was built for him to win. In my opinion, if Bears win and Glennon has a decent game, you continue to roll with him. However, if we lose, and Glennon has a sub-par game, then it has to be Trubisky-time.

I am leery of signing any skill position player coming off an ACL or Achilles injury. Very rarely do they return to form.
-
I just thought it was interesting considering we have one of the worst WR corps in the league and they are the SB champions.
-
Practice Squad is only for players with less than 2 yrs of NFL service. So I think he is out for the PS.
-
It would be our luck that this guy turns into a Slot WR guru in NE where he never caught a pass for us in a regular season. http://patriotswire.usatoday.com/2017/09/1...-slot-receiver/
-
If that is the case, that was more of a reason to have Cohen playing on that last drive.
-
Conte had a pick-6 against us the last time we played?
-
If there ever was a 1st Ballot HOFer, it's Urlacher, he redefined the position, and made the Tampa-2.

Ok, starting rewatching the game and my assessment of Glennon is worse than I originally thought. There were numerous plays where he would ignore a wide open receiver for what seemed like the check down. Almost all passes were underneath or short of the line to gain. He had some decent plays, but was too inconsistent On the last drive, he did look better, but it seemed more on ATL than on the offense. They started to play prevent and off the receivers, giving the underneath stuff. On the 4 plays goal to go. The Bellamy drop was more due to defensive holding than anything else, he couldn't get out of his break clean and turned late. No blame there other than refs. On the Howard drop, definitely on Howard, but I doubt he gets in and time probably runs out anyway if he catches it and gets tackled in bounds. The better play would've been to Howard immediately. On 3rd to Miller, just a bad pass by Glennon behind Miller. Then on 4th, Glennon was indecisive and held ball too long for a 5 yard pass, ends game on sack. Earlier in the game on another sack, he could've thrown the ball but held it and took a long sack. Here is one play on a 2nd and long, Glennon stares down Cohen, completely misses a wide open White who cut immediately in with no DB within 7+ yards of him. Glennon actually leads Cohen into the defenders, where if he turned and threw it to White, he had a lot of space to make something happen, even running underneath Cohen then down the far sidelines. You could even see a better passing lane to put it to White on the run. There was a good pocket, so it wasn't like there was an urgency to get it out quick. Glennon never looked at another receiver. This is a microcosm of his game.
