Bears @ Browns

[wood20ks]

This appears to be the final injury report for Sunday's game:

Bears at Browns​

• Bears: WR Equanimeous St. Brown (pectoral), LB Noah Sewell (knee) OUT; WR D.J. Moore (ankle), S Jaquan Brisker (groin) QUESTIONABLE
• Browns: C Ethan Pocic (stinger), DL Ogbo Okoronkwo (pectoral), LB Jordan Kunaszyk (calf), S Juan Thornhill (calf) OUT; DT Jordan Elliott (concussion), LB Anthony Walker (knee), CB Denzel Ward (shoulder) QUESTIONABLE

For the Bears, Moore said he's good to go despite missing practice with an ankle injury at the start of the week. Cleveland is battling a slew of injuries going into this one, with starting tackle Jedrick Wills also on injured reserve following knee surgery. Pocic will be replaced by Nick Harris, while Ward is trying to return from a three-game absence in the secondary. Martin Emerson Jr. and Cameron Mitchell are the Browns' top reserves at corner.

At least on paper we have the edge with respect to the injuries. But then again paper and 25 cents still just equals two bits.

I was listening to The Score yesterday and they said Myles Garrett has not had a sack in three games since injuring that shoulder......
They made it sound like Ward was not playing......
Their D is pretty banged up......

I kinda like our chances more now than I did earlier this week......

If we win out - nothing more

We have a 61% chance of making the playoffs.

Enough to make me engage again.

Surely, this means we will crash and burn this week. But for now? LET'S GO BEARS!

You just had to say it... guarantees not going to happen... heh

Should be a winnable game, just have the feeling the placekicker for one of these teams is going to be special teams player of the week, unless someone returns 2 touchdowns. I see a replay of the Minnesota game.

Boy, that 4th down conversion was such bullshit. Browns should have no points. Egregious holding at the point of attack by Cleveland. Jaylon would've easily made that stop. Terrible non-call.

What a play by Stevenson

100% - We've completely DOMINATED this football game. It should be 17-0. (I also don't know why we don't give Santos a shot from 56 at end of half. As opposed to hail mary.)

On bright side, a score here should seal it.

 

[richig07]

4th and 1.

Tush push?

 

[richig07]

FUCKING CHRIST

He's short.

This game is so frustrating. Just letting them hang around.

 

[richig07]

Stevenson playing a good game

 

[richig07]

We lost

I can't believe it.

I just can't believe it

 

[richig07]

Yup

I can't believe it

 

[richig07]

This is absolutely disgusting

We found a way

I'm going to vomit

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

Double fucked today. First we gag against the Browns, then the Panthers win. Double fucked.

I swear to God, this fucking team is just so annoying. Fields and subsequently Getsy, still shrink when it matters most. And Eberflus just dumbfounds me. Someone please tell me why in the holy fuck they dropped Justin Jones into coverage that last Cleveland conversion, on what, 3rd and fucking 15?!? Un-fucking-real.

I think Eberflus, Getsy and Fields all just sealed their fucking fate, or at least it should have. I know I'm over them. And right when I was on the brink of thinking they might all be staying...it's hard to reason that after today's loss.


I cannot believe Mooney couldn't secure that at the end, but it never should've gotten to that point. Fields' internal clock is a fucking hourglass. Dude playing like there's a whole quarter left there at the end. O-line play wasn't great today and even worse after Jenkins went down, but dude is still late af, and his windup is still atrocious.

 

[beardown07]

I don't understand why Fields is constantly adding that little extra hitch before throwing. It's so fucking annoying. Still feels like he's drenched in honey when throwing from the pocket.


I'll give a pass on the hail mary at half, given the elements and which way they were going, but the 4th and two later on in FG range, albeit a long FG, it was still in range. Going to commercial I was all for going for it, until they came back and I saw the godawful spot they gave em...Thought it was gonna be 4th and a short 1, but it closer to a long 2 yards. Kick it and go up 20-10.


The deep ball to Tonyan early on was a pretty ball that he just can't drop, regardless of inclement weather tho.


I've been going back and forth with Fields of late, mostly cuz the idea of starting over again hurts, but the dude just isn't it. The stat lines are consistently awful. Joe fucking Flacco is putting up over 300 weekly after being on the fucking couch 2 weeks ago, and Fields is consistently barely breaking 200.

I hate the group of QBs coming up in the draft, and dread starting over, but goddamn...this shit is dragging on.

I'm so f*cking tired of Eberflus giving the momentum to the other team. I know it was a 50 yard field goal...BUT WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO PASS ON POINTS. We were playing one of the top defenses in the league, on the road, and our offense was not performing well. We should have kicked that field goal to go up 2 scores. It's just inexcusable. Know who you are and the situation. This has happened now multiple times in the Eberflus Era. Infuriating.

Dominated? Joe Flacco threw for almost 400 yards. If he's just a tad more protective of the ball? Then we never even sniff the endzone in this game. Same sh*t different day. You aren't dominating sh*t IF YOU CAN'T SCORE. Our offense did nothing. Hell, they were given two gifts for our only touchdowns by the defense...and the first gift they almost sh*t the bed. They made that 1st and goal on the 1 look like the hardest TD conversion in football history. Thankfully they converted.

236 yards of total offense and lose time of possession battle when the defense gives you 3 turnovers, 14 points and 4 sacks...LOL...We ain't "dominated" sh*t. Goddamn our bar is so f*cking low here in Chicago.

 

[Jiddy]

Oh yeah...And that f*cking motion sweep on third and short to Tyler Scott...

...That f*cking Getsy man...GFY with that.

The D played pretty dominant, but it doesn't matter when the O shits their pants. Flacco doesn't go for 400, if our O could've sustained some drives.
