adam Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Crazy what two weeks can do. After the GB game, this was a potential flex game that was going to move into primetime with potential playoffs implications (assuming we came in at 7-6 and MIN at 8-5). Well MIN is 8-5....... It is amazing that we could've been one game up on every other potential playoff team other than MIN and SEA (non-Division leaders) coming into this game at 7-6. Now we are 5-8 and playing for draft position. With very little to play for, it is hard for me to see a close game. MIN 27 - CHI 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Imagine that, an opening drive TD for the opposing team. I don't have the data, but I guarantee you the Bears lead the league in allowing a TD on the first defensive series. Just awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Cutler held on toooooo long Not a good series by the O. Have to take advantage of good field position I actually didn't mind that by Cutler. He was looking for a guy to break open and the pressure was minimal. He was trying to make a play on a drive that was already doomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mind holding on it while the potcket holds up but after away throw it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the data, but I guarantee you the Bears lead the league in allowing a TD on the first defensive series. Just awful. WK1 - GB - 3 plays, 7 yards, punt WK2 - ARI - 6 plays, 33 yards, punt (opening KO return for TD) WK3 - SEA - 3 plays, 6 yards, punt WK4 - OAK - 3 plays, 0 yards, punt WK5 - KC - 3 plays, 9 yards, punt WK6 - DET - 10 plays, 80 yards, TD WK7 - BYE WK8 - MIN - 3 plays, 6 yards, punt WK9 - SD - 8 plays, 63 yards, TD WK10 - STL - 7 plays, 80 yards, TD WK11 - DEN - 4 plays, 74 yards, TD WK12 - GB - 6 plays, 37 yards, turnover on downs WK13 - SF - 3 plays, 3 yards, punt WK14 - WAS - 15 plays, 80 yards, TD WK15 - MIN - 13 plays, 93 yards, TD So, 6 out of 14? That might be the worst in the NFL. I bet someone is worse. But the Bears' odds would increase if going on just the last handful of weeks.

jason Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Long should really be at G It doesn't happen very often, but when the entire Chicago Bears message board agrees on something, it's a 99.9% certainty. This is one of those issues. Hopefully the staff realizes this, moves him back to RG, and signs/drafts accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 BTW... Forte still has it. That cut-back run in the first drive that got called back was there with or without the hold. And it was almost entirely because of a nasty jump-cut by Forte. A few other times this game he's shown burst, vision, and power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 This team shows a glimmer of hope, then crushes your soul. No way the Vikings should be able to march down the field like that with AP on the sideline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will come down to that as the deciding factor if he stays next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears4Ever_34 Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 I'd give Faboluje a shot at RT before the end of this year. He showed flashes in pre-season. Move Long back to RG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 I would move Long back sooner than later. Hopefully his poor performance at OT doesn't impact his confidence at Guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chitownhustla Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Move him back to RG and bring in a RT either in FA or draft. I hope they draft a LT. Sign a RT in FA. Oline would instantly be amazing LT - Stanley or guy from Old Miss LG- Slauson C- 55 or Montgomery RG- Long RT- free agent stud if there is any Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
