Stinger226 Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 Now that we're able to pressure a QB, the TOs are just flowing. That's how the cover 2 works at it's best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's getting a taste of what it takes to play at a high level int he league, and he's pushing for it now - good to see. That could really help him get that deal. Yeah for what it’s worth I think they should keep him only to avoid making another hole/need (similar to what someone else said). However both Stevenson and to some level Smith are both making cases he could become expendable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASHKUM BEAR Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 Getsy needs to figure some better plays. The Bears are not getting any push on inside runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearFan PHX Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 ouch, running the QB as a matter of practice is gonna get him killed. 2 minutes ago, Alaskan Grizzly said: Yeah for what it’s worth I think they should keep him only to avoid making another hole/need (similar to what someone else said). However both Stevenson and to some level Smith are both making cases he could become expendable. I guess the way i see it is you have a generic cap allotment in mind for a team with a rookie QB deal and a team with a franchise QB deal - its the ideal amount of cap space you would spend on each position, and it includes a set of skills and productivity the big money players have to have. It's almost for sure that theres a budget for a great CB in that generic allotment for Poles or anyone. So you ask yourself whether you think a player is at the level you need to commit to them as that guy. And you always have options; sign the guy youve got, trade for someone, get a free agent, draft someone. So you look at how each player fits the role you envision spending your bank for. If the guy's got it, you sign him, if not, you dont no matter how much he is your best short term options or loyalty or anything. So from that point of view, JJ is making his case, and that's great to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings are loading the front like Detroit did, challenging Fields to beat them with quick throws from the pocket. I suspect every team will do this to us for the rest of the year to some degree. Oh JJ! You almost had number 2! Start to expect them on every snap dude, thats the path to greatness. Dont be surprised. Envision that you KNOW one is coming on every snap. I really think we are going to be much better next year, this roster is better than our record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskan Grizzly Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 Johnson has become a bit of a menace (for opposing teams) these last few games. Another near miss. If he could just secure some of those drops he’d be sitting pretty for a new deal. Time to hit the Jugs machine JJ. And keep doing what you’re doing.

Alaskan Grizzly Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 Between the penalties and the creative (NOT) play-calling by Getsy, these Bears are their own worst enemy. Three WR screens in a row … how imaginative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It requires standing int he pocket and making a read. The Bubble screen is a readless throw, I am surprised Fields threw that ball into the DEs chest. But he wasnt reading, its a scripted throw. The west coast blitz beating stuff youre talking about (and I agree) takes a QB and a WR (or TE to Grizz's point) to read it together. Maybe Getsy it hiding a weakness? Or maybe he's just an idiot. Or could be both LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted November 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 They can't let the defense dictate the plays, that is tail between the legs play calling by Getsy. Does he not have any blitz beating plays? Everything can't be horizontal, they can easily rally to the ball. I am so confused by Getsy. Why stop what was working? Kmet had 6 targets on the 2 FG drives, none since, and the last 3 drives were punts. Roschon needs more touches too. Defense has played great again, but man, those penalties. Two on Gordon were weak. Santos misses a FG indoors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo3451 Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 I don't know if it's Fields or Getsy, but they got to uncork some passes down field. This is freaking stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or could be both LOL We will find out after this season. Either Getsy is gone, Fields is gone, or both are gone. I doubt both will be back, unless the Bears win out. This is two weeks in a row where the defense is giving the offense the ball and they are not scoring or only getting FGs. Also, this is trending towards another game with a huge turnover margin and time of possession lead and a loss. Can they beat +3 and over 40 mins? Right now they are +2 and at 19:47.

adam Posted November 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 Fields on pace for 270 passing yards and 42 rushing yards. That would be 312 combined yards, which is higher than the best QB in the league for combined yards. He needs TDs, and sack avoidance. I hope he can keep the INT-less streak going (currently at 45 attempts). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont mean to harp on it but they have to really not trust Fields to make reads. Defense playing tough though - that's good to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
