Halfway home

[Nelly]

3-5 through 8 games, and we're getting worse by the game it seems.

So let's look at the last 8 games and make our predictions.

• Nov. 10 vs. Lions. We're favored, at least for now. But with Stafford playing well, i don't see how we can keep up. Loss, 13-23
  
• Nov. 17 at Rams, Sunday Night Football. We get to show national audience how bad we are. Loss, 9-31
• Nov. 24 vs. Giants. This should be enough time for Jones to figure things out a bit. Close one, but i'll give us the win, 12-10.
• Nov 28 at Lions, Thursday Night Football. Another chance for us to shit the bed on national TV. Lions 27-16
• Dec. 5 vs. Cowboys, Thursday night again. No chance, another blowout on national TV. Cowboys 26-6
• Dec. 15 at Packers. 10 days to get ready for a let down. Packers 37-20
• Dec. 22 vs Chiefs, scheduled for SNF but no way it doesn't get flexed out. Chiefs roll in Soldier field with a healthy Mahomes, 27-13
• Dec 29 at Vikings. Vikings will be playing for either a wild card spot of positioning, so they'll be motivated, especially after they lost the first game to us. Vikings 35-10.

We finish 4-12 and give the Raiders a really nice first round that might otherwise be used to pick a quarterback.

That second Lions game is Thanksgiving with an early kick off...

Eh... We've only ever not been in one lone game down to the final minute under Nagy and that was vs New Orleans. Every single loss with this regime has been by one score besides that one. Losing 7 of 8 and all by blowouts/double digits seems unlikely. Seeing as we don't tend to really ever get blown out. Our D usually gives us a shot and our offense just fails to do enough. I don't suspect that to suddenly turn into a barrage of 20-25 point losses.

I'll just say this. Coming back home this week against another struggling division opponent. Theoretically, this should be a real good shot to get a win. But right now... you have to worry about where this team's mental state is at. Sunday will tell us a lot about what to expect the rest of the way. If they play a decent game and win. I expect a few more wins. One thing also worth noting is that Hicks will be back in December and you could have the D at full strength. If they lose... yeah... this is probably going to turn into a 5-11 type of ordeal.

Cam Newton may be available after the season. How much would the Bears offer for him?

They’re practically the same when it comes to passing.

This.


You would basically be getting an older Trubisky.

But Cam can run faster.

Nah man, he's done.

Not a fan of Cam Newton either.

This is just a disaster.
