SSG Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 8 hours ago, Cheech said: Every level of the defense is good. We dont have to hope for 1 or 2 key guys to go out and make a play. They came from everywhere tonight. Z Smith might be the FA signing of the year. My goodness, he does everything well. I'll give the offense a pass vs. a crazy good Bears D, but I wont give 12 a pass. Same BS from last year and the year before, only he has a weaker arm now. The beginning of his decline started 2 years ago. What BS from 2 years ago? Prior to his injury he was completing almost 70% of his passes, leading the league in TD passes and had the team 4-1 despite having a terrible defense and a gauntlet of a schedule (they had each of the NFC's top 3 seeds from the year prior).

KManX89 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Offense wasn't great, but did just enough to usurp the #1 defense on the road, which is good enough for me. Remember what happened last time Arodg had a great defense (granted, it was so long ago I almost don't blame you if you don't)? We won the damn Super Bowl. If our offense is able to get it together and this D continues to feast, watch out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infront of everyone. Against our biggest rival. Simply HUGE. Not to mention, if we beat the Bears at home, it gives us the tiebreaker. Absolutely massive win.

deathstar Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Anyone else hear the coach during Davis’ punt return? They were yelling, You got time, you got time; work work work. Is that normal and I never noticed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears are gonna tank anyway. Because I need it to happen. I need the Bears to end the season with a record that gives them a top ten pick for the Raiders. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snackattack Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 there was only one punt where i thought davis should not have signaled for the fair catch. in a tight game where the defenses are dominating, i don't fault him at all for erring on the side of safety though. special teams was pretty good last night.

Arthur Penske Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) If King, Tramon, Jaire, Brown, Jackson, Amos, Savage, Greene stay healthy and the front 7 are able to generate pressure like that... Going to be one hell of a defense. Especially when combined with the ultimate field flipper: Edited September 6, 2019 by Arthur Penske Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 A work in progress - on both sides of the ball, but primarily on offense. Okay. Cant say it was unexpected (especially against that D) - so primary take aways: Get back at it now on offense. Club Med is over. Time to get your executions sharpened up. Nobody got hurt. Our D is coming along nicely. Was putting nice, consistent pressure on Tubs w/o killing it with exotic blitz packages - and the D backs were bringing it regards "on the ball" aggressiveness. Good all the way around - and again - nobody got hurt. Primary Division foe is a game behind us already in overall and head to head. Good. A work in progress - but a good start to it.

Mox Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 9 hours ago, WaitWhat said: Offense struggles like every body predicted. People still *****. Amazing. Defense will hold the fort until they catch up and then we roll through this season. The apologist is already offended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redt Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Still glowing after that sweet victory last night. Defense looked good with sure tackling for a change. Didn't expect much from early season offense, but they did enough to get the win against a very aggressive defense. The scoring drive had a lot of misdirection that slowed the pass rush and I would expect to see a lot more of that moving forward. Need to be patient with the offense, but very pleased with the victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt break anything off (but he will) and didnt flub anything either (which is consistent with his previous play). He played fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
