Game Thread: Bears vs Panthers

[Lake Shore Drive]

It seems like we have been playing against the referees in every game this year.

It does seem that way. I rarely, if ever, try to blame refs for our woes when analyzing our games. And that's win or lose, as I feel both bad and good calls/non-calls tend to even out over the course of a given season. But so far this year the refs have been brutal, in particular against our secondary. We've been fortunate that as of yet they haven't cost us a game - we were thoroughly outplayed by the Colts in our only loss, so I'm not going to throw any stones there. But these terrible calls or lack thereof need to start evening out quickly.

Now find the one they called against Fuller that negated the TD.

I'll bet you money there is visible space between him and the receiver. He came over the top, clean.

It looked like Fuller got there a tad early to me:

I really wish they had different angles of it. It's deceptive cuz the WR is squatting/going down to his knees for the catch. It's over the back, so it'll get the call most the time, but I wish I could see if he hits the ball first or if he's really even touching/affecting him.

From just that angle, I'd lean for a little early, but as I think I stated earlier, they didn't call it earlier in the game against Carolina, and it was more egregious/obvious.

Either way, it sucks for Eddie to be robbed of two TDs on debatable calls. Ticky tack calls, at the very least.

By the way. 8 minutes in.

So if that's the only footage we as fans saw and that footage is "deceptive" and therefore it does indeed look as though it was PI, how can you say:

"I'll bet you money there is visible space between him and the receiver. He came over the top, clean."

I mean even the commentators acknowledge Fuller got there too early.

Cuz I hadn't seen the footage yet. Just the game, in real time, where they didn't even show the replay.

Quit looking for a fight.

And if we had more views, my stance could still be accurate, right?

Also that video isn't representative of the entire game (it's just the highlights) but Quinn is not getting any pressure whatsover, he's not beating his one on ones and i think i generously counted one hurry. The guy is a abysmal.

that's my point. there was no additional footage, and the only footage we all saw hardly was definitive for you to claim fuller's coverage was "clean".

Just see it right and stop exaggerating is all i'm saying

I said, "I'll bet". It looked clean to me. It looked like he came over clean, due to the receiver going to his knees. Get the fuck over it.

He is certainly not doing enough. Agreed.

Fuller has some of the best technique at the position in the game. Coming into the game, every penalty he has had against him, but one, was a bullshit call.

Whether it's tackling, man, press, trail...he is as good as there is in the game, and still gets dick for respect from the officials.


9 out of 10 calls against him, I trust are wrong.

Except coverage (rolls eyes) grey pubes thinks Amukamara is better.

Prince was a savvy vet, but never better than Fuller during his stint in Chicago. If anything, that is more testament to the idea that Fuller is severely underrated.

I think in legal circles they'd refer to this a BADABING moment.

The irrelevant Robert Quinn

Seriously....what's wrong with you? I mean, are you terminal or some shit? Why can't you just not be obnoxious? It is too early to claim bust, but I agree that it's not been an ideal signing yet. He's made some plays...sack, ff, fr, but not at the rate we'd expect. We are missing Goldman...

Perhaps I was wrong. I'll have to watch the full game again.

They must have been the 6 most unimportant pressures of the game.
