I think this word sums up the entire season.Ugh,
They're killing us with the run
Hard to let the defense stay on the field that long, I feel like third down (on both sides of the ball) has been the biggest issue for this team.Makes you think that Chicago already being at 26 minutes TOP is getting to them again.
I don't know why Pete has become so indifferent to TOP. It used to be one of his main points every game. Win field position, win TOP, run the ball. That was the entirety of his philosophy.
Way to0 many 3 and outs throughout the year has made the ToP very lopsided.Makes you think that Chicago already being at 26 minutes TOP is getting to them again.

Don't have a lot of hope for next year either. Salary cap, major holes in both O and D (massive talent gap), Bobby either done, or close to it, haven't had a reasonable running game since Lynch left, no first round draft picks or real depth in the draft to get players, etc.I think this word sums up the entire season.

Unfortunately we're on the same page with this.Don't have a lot of hope for next year either.

Not saying they can't reach the playoffs next year, but at best another one and done in the postseason.
If the coaching staff stays the same I agree it'll be another down year. Different HC plus new DC I have hope the ship will get back on track.Don't have a lot of hope for next year either.

Different staff isn't going to do enough to changeover the talent. We have a real lack of depth and overall talent more than anything else. Basically the entire secondary, not much of a pass rush, O line is still mostly a joke, no RB's that move the needle, need at least another LB.If the coaching staff stays the same I agree it'll be another down year.
