Game Thread: Bears 4-2 @ Washington 5-2

[Jiddy]

As usual it’s not so much that they lose

It’s how

Truer words were never spoken.

The Bears are having a really good season but yesterday was such a clusterfuck of coaching proportions....

Sweat wasn't in the game at the end?

You're only rushing 4 guys?

SMH.

First time in years, I was actuallly glad to have the wife's relatives come stay with us. I was so busy schlepping everyone around that I missed the game in its entirety. Turns out to be the best thing that could happen to me. Fucking Bears.

Caleb didnt play well at all either,although he was scrambling for his life again,how do you miss this throw......??



Other than the coaches,Caleb and the oline is also to blame for this loss too......

I seem to remember the pi in the endzone to give us a 1st and goal from the one,maybe not of been pi cause looked like it non-catchable being it was so over thrown.

We were destined to lose despite our stellar defense through out the game.

Annd I thought we were passed this:



3 of 10 for 33 yards......and in the 3rd qtr......horrible.

It's all bullsh*t going through the minutiae. Our coaches are clowns. This has been evident for a while now. Maybe when the hammer hits our head the 17th time they'll figure it out. Gotta be sure now, right?

Would hate to be here next year saying "Man we're f*cked now because we got rid of Matt Eberflus!"

Obviously tongue in cheek...Not a f*cking chance we'll ever say that...so the question is why is Ryan Poles so afraid to make the obvious move?

Eberflus will never see a HC job again after us. Book it.

Here's some scary Bears stats under Eberflus: 3-17 on the road, and 1-13 against teams with winning records. That's all I wanted to say

You say scary...but really if you've been watching the same horror movie over and over for a couple years, the jump scares are no longer effective. It's just "Oh yeah, there's Ol' Floosey doing what he does again."

As I said from post 1,all we beat are bad teams......

And I quote this from the Redskins board:

"But I am not ready to declare this team has “arrived “
Beat some good teams and prove to be a contender then we will arrive."


They believe we are a bad team,as I do.......and the meat of schedule is coming up.......starting with Arizona.

I hear some on other platforms saying Caleb looked good at the end, or what have you…

133 yards against a shit defense. Nuff said. Is it him? Is it coaching? Don’t know. But that is INEXPLICABLY bad passing stats against Washington, sorry. Fields could easily do that, AND add 120 rushing yards.

And before anyone blows a gasket. I’m not saying Fields was better. I’m saying if this is the end product? We actually WOULD HAVE BEEN better off keeping Fields.

Not too mention we had 2 weeks to prepare for the Redskins.....our coaches failed us,our oline failed us.......
We are a bad team till it gets fixed.....which wont be happening this season......

 

[beardown07]

Jesus Christ, here we fucking go. Eye fucking roll.

Waldron sucks. Eberflus is just awful, and once Jones went down at LT, it was just a shit show.

There is just no good reason to be running primary fucking routes to Gerald fucking Everett. What's next, Travis fucking Homer gets some touches at RB again?

The hand-off to Kramer is the most nauseating play of all-time. Arrogant, obnoxious, cutesy-pootsy bullshit. Gay af.


Eberflus and Waldron are dogshit. My only concern for Caleb is those two jackoffs.

 

[wood20ks]

Eberfluss'es press was asked about the out route to McLaurin on why there was no defender:

"Those 13 yards didnt matter"

What??

Great answer dumbfuck.....since when do we not contest a pass.......why is he still here I have no clue.

Good for them, hell, most of our fans have arrived since 2017 putting our first round QB's in the hall of fame. That quote is refreshing.

All we would have would be Marvin Harrison Jr whining that he is not getting the football. It was not this season that was the decision on Fields, it was the fifth year option and him being in line for 60 million a year, just because "thats what starting quarterbacks are supposed to get". There was just no path to keeping fields and signing him for a "team friendly" contract, which is basically Jones in NY at 4/160

Do you know what the rules are for players and coaches on a bye week? Thats me asking a question not being a smart ass. The way the players association or whatever controls how a team can practice and time limits, there might be rules on how much they can actually do. I know I brought it up, but it was not thinking like this, it was more of being rested and recovered from the last game.
Waldron just seemed to turn a corner and ended up turning into a brick wall. I think Olin brought it up in his segment, the head coach is on the headset and had to hear the Kramer run called and should have been able to say no or burn a time out to talk it over.

That was maddening. I heard him say if you play sideline defense at that point and they chose to do the hail mary, we would have had to have all our guys running back to the goal line. And the question was, how does a qb with bruised ribs throw the ball 75 yards. They were like, we are trying to do the math, it made the hail mary 65 yards and his response was they would have had to cover back wherever it landed.

To me that is how an offensive minded head coach explains what happened, not a defensive guru. I guess we mark this day when the bears ask washington permission to interview Kingsbury for our head coach position.

So during bye week,theres no classroom film??

Those coaches had to be preparing for Washington......had to be.

 

[Jiddy]

I’m jealous of all these fans that actually like their team’s head coach. That’s the biggest thing I miss about Lovie. He wasn’t great, but I never was experiencing pure disgust like I am now. Quite the contrary.

Wannstedt/Jauron/Trestman/Nagy/Eberflus…All bums that would grind my gears on the regular.

I guess there was Fox too, but everyone knew he was just there as a stopgap while we reset. More indifferent about him than like/dislike.

But yeah, I want to actually like my coach again. Please let Poles just figure it out make the right move this offseason. That’s all I ask at this point.

Honestly this throw was an oops throwaway. You can see the hitch hesitation caused by the defender (Number 0) and it just got away from him. I could see it. There's a brief second there where you could almost see a pick six or at least it getting tipped if the defender kept going forward, but he dips out at the last second. I'm sure he wishes he had that one back. Could've been a big gain, but I get what happened. That is not a missed throw IMO. It's a throwaway that he wishes he wouldn't have thrown away, in hindsight.
