Vikings @ Bears

[Lake Shore Drive]

Here's a list of the Bears walking wounded. The Vikes list is still TBA, altho we already know that Justin Jefferson, their best player, is out.

Bears Week 6 injury report: Long injury list for Wednesday's practice

Here’s a look at the Bears’ Week 6 injury report following Wednesday’s practice:

bearswire.usatoday.com

If there's a positive spin to this, it was pretty much known after the Commanders game who wouldn't be suiting up for this week, which gave Poles and the Bears some extra time to find replacements or promote players off the practice squad. Based on the report, it doesn't look like anyone new was added as far as definitely missing the game. Guess we'll have to wait and see if anyone who was limited in practice will be a full go by Sunday.

I feel this could be another win........

No JJ us a huge loss for them......but they still have Hockenson they will throw to all day along with Addison,a nice no.2 wr to have.
We have not been able to stop the run much either along with them keeping Mahomes at bay(compared to his norm).

But I do belieeve we win this..........

People are like "Jefferson's out so I expect the Bears to win."

I don't like how stories like this typically play out for us.

Vikes will play just good enough to only lose by one score.

I agree, but then again, whereas I pretty much had the Vikes chalked off as yet another loss for us, at least with their main guy out, I feel a win is obtainable. We still might not ger 'er done, but there's hope. Wish I could catch this game, but I'm heading out soon for a wcky weekend in Palm Springs with some amigos and pretending I know how to play golf.

Weather is going to make this one messy. Temps around 50, rain showers, and wind gusts up to 30 MPH. I hope Roschon is cleared. I like our run game in a bad weather setting vs Minnesota. Problem is, how bad we are against the run. lol

Look, I still can't trust us to beat anyone. This D is awful. It was awful before EJax (EPussy - I'm over that guy) and Johnson went out. I'll sort of give Gordon a pass as he got hurt too early for him to suck.

Some notes courtesy of the AP:

• Bears haven't won two in a row since Weeks 16 and 17 of the 2021 season, when they beat Seattle and the New York Giants.
• All four of Minnesota’s losses have come by one score, with a league-high 12 turnovers.
• The Vikings have blitzed 113 times and on 56.2% of opponents' drop-backs. New England is second in both attempts (81) and percentage (45.3).
• Minnesota has won three straight road games against Chicago, by the scores of 19-13, 17-9 and 29-13. It is the first time the Vikings have won three straight games at Chicago while allowing no more than 13 points since doing so between 1973 and 1975.

I like that Foreman is finally going to be playing. Do not know what they saw in Homer that he dressed for games over Foreman. Maybe they had a plan to ride him hard at the end of the year. I mean, look at Detroit. Everyone thought they were stupid for drafting a back after signing Monty and Monty has been one of their MVP's this year.

Hardly ever pay attention to the fantasy stuff, but watching some NFL network this morning, starting fields and cousins were 1 and 2, I guess we should be expecting a shootout.

Ive been thinking that myself.........

 

[redskinsfan1963]

by beating the commanders the bears proved they were,nt the league,s worst team,washington is.

 

[Jiddy]

i hate that we didn’t get a center so much.

Also Velus Jones is one of those players that should be good but every time he touches the ball I expect the worst.

 

[Jiddy]

I like how we’re grinding them down. On pregame radio today they said Vikings only dressed 4 linemen on D. Wear em down.

 

[Jiddy]

-3 passing yards…sigh

Horsesh*t review. Eh well.

Running on 3rd and long pisses me off so much.
