Ok, I didn't know it could be added on when it is not a pass. Yeah, about time we got a call. That one couldn't have been more obvious.

It's called holding, refs not calling a damn thing on the Chiefs, who are holding on every play. The commentators talked about Bennett's hold, yet every player at the point of attack for KC is holding.

Refs are garbage, they are calling nothing on the Chiefs. They had an illegal motion no-call on the Charles run, and when does defensive holding get tacked onto a run play? I thought it was either or?

Another 3 and out by the defense.

Decent drive, pts are pts. We have to make them pay if they are going to blitz every down.

Where would Nkemdiche play in a 3-4?

Meh, DT doesn't make sense with the other needs and him not necessarily being BPA at that point either. Goff is ok, but he would need to have a Heisman worthy year with a a great TD-INT and a high accuracy rate for me to consider him in the top 5.

Lol the first placed I checked too: Sherrod Martin is back, depth is needed without Rolle and with Vereen gone. Brandon Dunn basically replaces Terry Williams on the PS. I believe Barrett Jones can play G or C, just don't know his health status.

How about KC and SD? We should split there as well, which would be 7-9 (6-9 leaves one game missing). I would say anything over 6 wins is a success this year and shows progress. I think 7 wins is a realistic number.

No worries, just post from time to time as our guys move up the record books. Nice to see our guys moving past some big names. No ulterior motives here. I post these from time to time.

Detroit is a hot mess right now and riddled with injuries. All the next 4 defenses are in the bottom half of the league except MIN in scoring: KC 29th yards, 32nd pts DET 25th yards, 18th pts MIN 17th yards, 6th pts SD 15th yards, 28th pts Every one of those games are winnable. Especially if we have Jeffery and Ratliff back.

Yeah, I heard the same thing, I would have him start suiting up though and at least be on the sideline as a backup.

I've heard 12 weeks is sort of the average recovery timeline for White's injury. That would put White out until 15NOV, which I would assume he would need a few weeks to get into some type of condition to play. Looking 2 weeks later, we face GB on Thanksgiving, wouldn't that be a cool time for him to make his debut? Now obviously I would not want him back doing anything until fully cleared to do so and I would also base the decision on our playoff potential at that point.

With the new schemes, we should continue to improve as the season goes on, and if we get some guys back from injury, we should see even more improvement. I think we saw flashes of what we could do in the first few games, but this was the first real game where you can see our game plan control the game/clock. My biggest concern going forward is our special teams, we can't give the other team great field position and then back ourselves up when we get the ball. Also, ref: Porter: Adam Jahns ‏@adamjahns 4m

A pretty cool article about McPhee's speech: http://www.chicagofootball.com/2015/10/04/...aiders/a5k5c8m/ The dude is earning his pay. before Week 4: ‏ https://twitter.com/Gil_Brandt/status/650034152411021312

Good game overall, have to fix the special teams, they are a detriment to the team right now and bringing down the other phases. The average starting field position was terrible all game. Besides the two turnovers where we got the ball on the OAK side of the field, the special teams gave us this dumpster fire for starting field positions: 20, 6, 12, 8, 20, 31, 20, 10, 20. Both of our TD scoring drives went 80 yards. Cutler had one or two bad passes that included the INT, but for the most part he played a solid game (even with him being limited against scrambling). On the INT, it needed to go more outside (like Cutler said in the post game), but why did Bennett jump at a waist high pass? He turned and left his feet (for no reason) which seemed to give Woodson a clear shot at the ball. Regardless, Cutler needs to throw the ball away or to a place where it can't be intercepted (which is to the outside). He needs to know that even a FG there makes OAK need a TD to win. Bennett was a beast making several huge catches and first downs. It was nice to see Royal starting to make an impact and Wilson's name on a few plays. Can't imagine how this offense will look with a healthy Alshon, White, Royal, Wilson, Bennett, and Forte. O-Line played decent despite injuries. Defense making plays. McPhee and Jenkins making impact plays two games in a row. People are asking about salary cap, how about locking up Jenkins if he continues to play like this? I might even do it sooner than later before he becomes even more expensive. I heard Acho's name called a lot. Goldman had a nice sack. The defense only allowed 243 yards. Porter played decent except for the missed tackle on Helu with Jones (that was ugly). I missed Jared Allen not holding contain on every play, that was a nice subtraction.

After the first quarter of the season, we are through the toughest part of the schedule, which was expected. Most had us at 1-3 after 4 anyway. Now it seems like we shift into an easier quarter of the season, currently scheduled to play teams with a combined record of 5-10. We should at least split, if not go 3-1 in the next 4. That would put us between 3-4 at the halfway point. Then we go into a tougher quarter playing teams 11-5, and 1 win seems to be the most realistic outcome (though we could split depending on what STL team shows up). Then we get into the final quarter against teams currently 5-10 again like the 2nd quarter. To me this sets up for 7-9 wins and a strong finish. If the season ended today, a .500 team would be the 2nd wild card. Here is what we have coming up: @ Kansas City (1-3) @ Detroit (0-3) BYE Minnesota (2-2) @ San Diego (2-2) -- @ St. Louis (2-2) Denver (4-0) @ Green Bay (4-0) San Francisco (1-3) -- Washington (2-2) @ Minnesota (2-2) @ Tampa Bay (1-3) Detroit (0-3) I know it was only 1 win, but if you look at the other teams with 1 win or less (14 of them), we seem to be better than most of them and have had the toughest schedule of the group.

Forte now has over 8,000 rushing yards and 11,931 yards from scrimmage. The 8,071 rushing yards puts him in 48th all-time only 3 yards behind Freeman McNeil and 10 yards behind Larry Csonka. In the next few games he should also pass the likes of Maurice Jones-Drew, Priest Holmes, Gerald Riggs, Roger Craig, Herschel Walker, and Earnest Byner (some pretty good company already). Additionally, he is now in 59th for yards from scrimmage with 11,931 and nearing 12k. In this game he passed Don Maynard and Michael Irvin and is now only 10 yards behind Clinton Portis for 58th. Cutler is now 41st all-time in completions, passing Y.A. Tittle, Randall Cunningham, and Sonny Jurgensen today. Next up, John Brodie and Jake Plummer to move into 39th all-time. With 2 TD passes, Cutler is now tied for 47th all-time with Matt Ryan and Sammy Baugh with 187. With 28,375 passing yards, Jay passed Ron Jaworski for 52nd on the all-time list. He is now within 100 of Trent Green and 109 of Chris Chandler who is 50th. With 10 pts, Gould now has 1,112 all-time, good for 45th, 1 point behind Joe Nedney. With 3 FGs, Robbie passed Gostkowski for 39th all-time with 252. Gould currently sits in 52nd in XPM with 356, 1 behind Lawrence Tynes for 51st all-time. With 5 more pts, Gould becomes the all-time Bears scoring leader (passing Kevin Butler). Martellus Bennett is currently the 5th most productive TE in Bears history and is closing in on Greg Olsen. He needs 15 receptions and 105 yards to tie Olsen. Then he will challenge Desmond Clark by the end of the year for 3rd. Moorehead is 2nd, with Ditka #1. Alshon is stuck on 2,999 receiving yards and is only 1 yard away from 3k and Wendell Davis for 15th all-time (Bears). He is also only 32 yards away from Jim Keane. Jeffery will also pass both of them with 6 more receptions.

Jared Allen's first game with the Panthers, 1 tackle.

wtf, 2 drops and a bad pass by Jay.

God Bennett is such a beast. Another 3rd Down conversion for offense.

wtf refs.......

OMG, a decent return and no penalty? Unpossible!

Jenkins with a sack, another 3rd down stop.

Yeah he has been brutal, there was no reason not to fair catch that last punt. We lost 10 yards and a couple of seconds.
