It's... TIME!: Week 1 Bears vs Falcons Game-Thread

[richig07]

Sanchez, Long, Amukamara, Wheaton, Jenkins, WR Tre McBride and RB Taquan Mizzell are the inactives.

It's a beautiful day for football. The temperature at 65 degrees, not a cloud in the sky and the wind blowing 10-15 MPH off the lake.

Let's go boys!

I'll be at the bar, but I want to make sure we have a game thread I can read and discuss the game in later.

That anthem got me pumped up!

Too bad I think we're about to get smoked.

 

[Skerpokes]

Let's go Bears

 

[Skerpokes]

I like the stop for the D on that 1st drive holding then to 3

 

[antone112]

Matt Ryan completes a pass 2 yards short= 1st down

Mike Glennon=4th down.

 

[Skerpokes]

Boy this Falcons D is fast and physical

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

Same story as last year. Hey, Howard is gashing their defense, so let's stop feeding him.

 

[Skerpokes]

Cohen looks good

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

This drive they are using the backs perfectly. Howard should be getting at least one carry every set of downs.

 

[Skerpokes]

Need 6 here

 

[Skerpokes]

The Wildcat is BACK baby!! TD!!!

I'm not calling this game but the Bears will never win a championship with John Fox.

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

That drive was great to tie it up. Howard and cohen look like they'll be the backbone of this offense for a few years. We are a stud WR and LT away from a serious offense. Let's see if this carries over to the second half.

I'm not calling this game but the Bears will never win a championship with John Fox.

Agreed. He was integral to the broncos and panthers success though. He's here to build a good squad. He might get a shot or two at the playoffs, but I think the plan is to get a good team in place then let him go.

 

[Skerpokes]

Hicks playing lights out. I'm officially giving up on White ever being a significant WR

I don't think it was planned but Mike Smith kind of played that role for the Falcons. It was heartbreaking when his lack of imagination left Tony Gonzalez ringless though. I think Mora might have taken that team to a championship. That team that lost to SF in the NFCCG in Atlanta was a damn good team.

 

[antone112]

Glennon is going to have to make a play down the stretch here if we are gonna win. 5 yd passes aren't gonna get it done.

 

[Skerpokes]

WTF just happened

 

[antone112]

WTF just happened

The inevitable. Now I can see the inevitable pick 6, now that Glennon has to go down field.

 

[Skerpokes]

Aaaaaand White is hurt
