Bears

This isn’t the playoff caliber defense we all thought they would be. Talent is there but something is off. Can’t stop the run, giving up to many yards especially in key moments. Pass defense is suspect but it could be because our d-line isn’t getting enough pressure. They are not terrible but definitely not great. Maybe Eberfool isn’t calling the right scheme in the right moments? Eberfool is the defensive coach so maybe that has something to do with it. Who knows but certainly not the defense we thought we had.
We will see tonight if they can rally against Detroit.
Again, numbers don't lie, this is a top 10 defense. You say they can't stop the run yet they rank 11th in rush yards/game. Not sure if you were expecting shutouts every game, but the defense has given them a chance to win just about every game. It's the offense that's putrid.

Corey, it's funny how you NEVER mention points given up. As a result, I can't take your argument seriously.

I don't know what to say here. Corey just isn't paying attention to what we are writing. Maybe it's that LWE loss. It's like my Hispanic friend. Miguel would say. "Corey's balloon go POP!" LOL!

I agree and we say this every damned year about the Bears offense. The Lions are going to pound them tomorrow and I do not expect the Bears to score much more than 14 points.

Thursday game benefits the Bears. Teams keep it more vanilla than normal on short weeks. Bears are already vanilla so it's like every other week!
