Game Thread: Week 2: Bears (0-1) at Denver (0-1)

[Jiddy]

Broncos starting tackle James is out this Sunday.

We should win this game.

 

[Jiddy]

Nagy has stated Burton is probably game day decision...which, based on past experience at this point, probably means out.

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

Totally.

Who do you think was under-utilized Thursday that gets more of an extended look Sunday? I'll say Montgomery. You? I think he slowly begins to dominate the share of carries. I would also like to see Miller get involved. Seeing him with 1 target was discouraging.

I don’t know if anything will work. Denver is near impossible to beat at home in September from what I hear. We should probably just fold and rest up for week 3.

 

[Payton]

Bears bounce back big. No fooling Fangio just line up and out talent them.

And here is my biggest concern with this game... Can Nagy get out of his own way, stop out thinking himself and just line up and let his offense play football? If so, I think we'll be fine. If he tries to get cute, I think Fangio will be dialed in and it will be another long day for our offense.

Gabriel...

Yeah, basically every pass catcher not named Robinson.

Yeah, it's a tough place to play. No doubt, good point beengay. You're on top of the ball.

The Bears are a better football team than the Broncos. Both starting talent and depth. Having said that, I still think it will be a close, hard fought game. The Broncos will benefit from it being their home opener and much like Chicago, desperately want to get the bad taste out of their mouth from week 1.

I think the Bears will win but most of the game should be pretty close. Mile high altitude will make it more challenging for Chicago but ultimately, talent will eek out the win.

An opposing fan's two cents....

Yeah, this game is a lot more difficult than people think. I was fine with the idea that we would drop this game after we beat GB. However, that clearly didn't go as planned.

Not going to be a picnic.

Oh, that's good stuff Beengay. Good stuff!

Comic relief is much needed on these boards. You're a little jokester! That's why we love ya!

We're gonna drop you guys by double digits jabroni.

NO game is overtaking this one in the 4 PM time slot...so I can't watch from my couch and have to go to the local sports bar. Sad panda.

Eh. I know what you mean, but that can be fun if you know the locals up there. I often go up and watch at my local bar. I live just outside of Detroit and I'm the only Bears fan. There's a couple Browns fans with Cleveland being near by. A couple Steelers fans, a Packers fan and a Bills fan that are all regulars. The shit talking and discussion about each other's teams is fun.

I do pay for the Ticket, though. Just so I don't HAVE to go if I would rather chill out.

Bronco's are better coached. Bears are better then GB too but well you know. I like the Bronco's and their coach and wish you well. Not this week but other weeks.

 

[Jiddy]

The entire NFC is going against us again this week. Please win kthnx.

 

[pachyderm]

GO BEARS!


Mitch missed that dude who was wide open!

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

Why does Nagy insist on playing Mike Davis?

 

[Jiddy]

F*ck man...Are we really going to go two games without a touchdown? Let’s f*cking go!

 

[richig07]

Mack is taking Bolles to school lol

But god... something has to give offensively. You would think just by accident at this point that we'd have busted a big play. It's so rough.

What's worse is that we did some admirable things in the first half running the ball well and controlling TOP. Come on!

 

[richig07]

COME ON! PUNCH IT IN!
