If the defense improves anything is possible now.

uhh did Foles have a 45 yard run today? No. Hopefully Nagy grows a brain and puts Mitch back in next week.

 

[beardown07]

That was awesome!

Trubisky just lost his job. For how long? That remains to be seen, but as of right now, Foles is the new starting QB.

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

That was awesome!

It took 3 quarters, but it seemed like all the units finally came together as one - the defense, offense, STs, coaching.....just everything. Don't want to get too excited, being we came back against a team that had been and continued to be decimated by injuries. But shit, 20 unanswered points is 20 unanswered points, I don't care how you slice it.

I assume that was sarcasm. I mean, I hope it was.

 

[NCChiFan]

3-0 and I'm speechless. Where is my nitro tablets...

 

[wood20ks]

It was a great win today.....

Now lets see them put 4 good qtrs together.......

 

[Lake Shore Drive]

No, I meant my feelings were kind of the same as to how BWW responded, but I might have been a touch less direct. After all, the guy is a Bears fan. But yeah, the idea that Mitch should be the starter next week based on a 45 yard run is pretty weak in lieu of how Foles handled the offense once he took over.

Shit, I'd like to see even 3 good quarters. So far:

Lions - great 4th Q only
Giants - great 1st half only
Falcons - great 4th Q only.

 

[BearsWillWin]

Nagy went to Foles when the Bears were 2-0 and his QB already with a 4th Q comeback this season.

That means he was itching to do it the entire time and finally got a good reason.

Oh I know yall were serious. I meant 45 yard run comment must have been sarcasm

I am pretty ecstatic with this team right now. Honestly, I think we had some terrible calls go against us. Notably:
- Each of our first two offensive drives ended with missed defense PIs. The one before the missed field goal was especially egregious.
- The roughing the passer calls were bad, especially the one negating the turnover.
- I think Robinson scored a TD on the overturned TD/Interception. He had it first and possessed it cleanly. Dennard possessed it jointly with him for about a second a half in real time. Then Dennard took it from him. To me, it was a clear joint possession issue and should not have been overturned, a conclusion Perreria agreed with.

Really, we were the better team for most of the day and the game was a lot closer than it should have been.

The kicking game is the one huge concern I have after today. At first when we went for it on fourth from the 17 down 16, I was furious. However, the more I thought about it, the more I am sure the staff didn't have faith in Santos to make a 34 yarder. I can't blame them, and that's a huge problem.
