Muda69 Posted January 5 Author Posted January 5 The Bears defense stinks. Therefore my prediction: 1/10/26: Packers 35, Bears 17. 1 Quote
Coach Nowlin Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Matchups my friend all about the matchups each week. Bears Secondary cannot cover Man to Man well on the Dig/IN and the Crossers and Backs out of Backfield, things that DETROIT does EXCEPTIONALLY well. And they played a bunch of MAN because some weeks our 4 man DL rush cannot get there, so DC Allen has to dial up bliztes to get home, (how many negative plays all 17 weeks did we see from Nickel Blitz from Kyler/ Brisker/ CJ Johnson ? Problem doing that with a VET like GOFF and absolute WR MAN EATERS of St. Brown and Jamo Williams and Gibbs, can you can't get home, they will pick you apart. Then the field shrunk and saw Bears D hold and keep to FGs. But understand the sentiment: Just know the Packers O is not the LIONS O, by scheme and personnel Quote

Back in my day it was Pat and Tom Brookshier. And there is a great video on YouTube titled A Football Life Pat Summeral. Worth watching if you can bypass the commercials. 48 minutes.

Bobref Posted January 6 Posted January 6 I see former Bears coach Matt Eberflus is out after one season as Cowboys’ DC. Worst defense in the League this season. Quote
Coach Nowlin Posted January 6 Posted January 6 SHOCKED..... Time to be an obscure LB coach for a few more years Quote
PHJIrish Posted January 7 Posted January 7 For Coach Cignetti, the portal is like picking grapes from the vine! You can't blame top players for wanting to play for him. 1 Quote
Irishman Posted January 8 Posted January 8 Not that I had ever thought about before now, but saw a post that made me think it did not sound right about the last time the Bears beat the Packers in the playoffs. I was shocked to find out they have only played twice. 1941 and 2010 Quote
Coach Nowlin Posted January 9 Posted January 9 ugh; Chris Conte........

Sparty Posted January 11 Posted January 11 4/4 from own 32 and went for it. Don’t think I would’ve went for that at that point. And after the Packers score, obviously they shouldn’t have. Packers look good. Bears need to wake up. Quote
Bobref Posted January 12 Posted January 12 I know the Colts fans love Tyler Warren, and there were a lot of Bears fans who thought the Bears should have taken him instead of Colston Loveland. How does that draft pick look now? 8 catches for 137 yds. and a crucial 2 pt. try in his first playoff game. No rookie has ever done that before. Bears have the TE position locked down for the next several seasons. 1 Quote

He's darn good and has transitioned quickly from his college days. Good for the Bears. Maybe both teams did well drafting TE's in the first round...perhaps both win with those picks! Things do look promising for Loveland having quite the QB throwing to him....they are making a nice combination on the field. Edited January 12 by Bash Riprock 1 Quote

Bobref Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Did anyone else see Caleb Williams grab that game by the throat and shake it like a terrier with a rat? Quote
Sparty Posted January 12 Posted January 12 No. I saw him do what he was supposed to do as the #1 overall draft pick from 2024. He was opportunistic for sure, as was his team. But the Packers had a lot to do with letting the Bears stick around. Quote

Sparty Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Admittedly, I am not a die hard Bears fan, nor a fan boy of anyone. I was just responding to the question you asked. Buzzkill? Guilty as charged then, I guess. Quote

Coach Nowlin Posted January 12 Posted January 12 A throw that I thought was incredible was also to ROME, but they never showed it again, FREAKING LASER, below the Knee on the run bang, 1st down. But YES, that 4th and 8....... speechless Quote
