Yeah 2 huge punts.

Floyd with a sack!

Huge play for Hicks to strip Miller, doesn't result in turnover, but we get the ball back after a punt.

He can't when he is getting mugged. DB all over him twice on the 3rd down play well past 10 yards and no call.

Damn we needed that, only a FG, so lead intact. I can't see Cutler trusting White much the rest of this game.

Need to hold them to a FG here.

wtf was he doing?

Jay Freaking Cutler says screw you Houston, an epic throw to Royal and Royal makes a huge catch for a TD.

Phantom call on Miller, refs continue to be garbage. So Cutler says screw it and launches a bomb to Jeffery who hauls it in.

and finally a sack for our defense

Refs are garbage, Cutler gets speared with a helmet to the chest and no call.

Yeah that is the difference right now, we have no pass rush and big holes for Miller to run thru.

Defense shows back up after 1st and goal and forces a FG, Bears lead 7-3.

Defense needs to clear up gap control, Miller getting hit 4 to 5 yards past the LOS.

Yeah both were bad spots, Cutler clearly fell forward of the LOS.

Damn, on 4th and a half yard, Cutler fumbles exchange and Bears turnover on downs. First real mistake on offense and it beats a missed FG.

Defense looked great on 2nd drive, Freeman snuffed out a RB screen and after a few penalties, Texans play it safe and run on 2nd and 3rd, then punt. Royal back for punt return and takes it 31 yards, wow.

After a long PI on Jeffery, Langford plows in after 2 runs for a TD. 75 yard drive against this defense is huge. Barth hits the XP, and Bears lead 7-0 early. Also, Whitehair looks solid at center, making calls at the line and no exchange issues so far.

Huge play from Cutler to Jeffery for 30. One other thing to note, Massie is containing Watt and literally pushed him 5 yards off the spot on a run.

Texans on first drive move the ball pretty easily, Osweiler gets away on pressure on 3rd and 2 and runs for 17, but then Porter comes up with a huge INT against Hopkins. Bears ball!

‏@BradBiggs #Bears inactives: CB Kyle Fuller, CB Cre'Von LeBlanc, S Deon Bush, LB Nick Kwiatkoski, OL Eric Kush, WR Cameron Meredith, DL Will Sutton

The under with us losing by 9 means we score less than 17. Also, losing by 9 normally means the other team hit a bunch of FG's, not us missing a lot. If Sharpe gets 100 yards against us playing for Tennessee, then we have serious issues.

No more Probable rating, so most of these will be announced as game time decisions. Bears 24-20

Pace has made you feel that way, but Emery and Trestman didn't? Pace has turned around one of the oldest and slowest rosters in the league in less than 2 years. White got injured and Floyd hasn't even played a down yet and you are calling them both busts? Let's pump the brakes a little. Slauson, Forte, and Marshall were all over 30, so no harm in letting those guys go. Bennett and Marshall were head cases and huge distractions. The way I see it, the O-Line and Front-7 are significantly better, so if our skill players and DB's play near their potential, we will have a solid team. We are also in a much better cap situation than we have been in a long time.

Not good, hopefully it lights a fire under his a$$ to perform.
