Bears look in control. Broncos better than last week, but still too many missed blocks (Fant...), missed tackles (Yiadom), overly conservative defense (NO blitzing), dink and dunk.  Keeps you in the game - but tough to win against a better team. 

If you’re expecting Vic Fangio to blitz you are in for a rude awakening. Bears defense was dead last in the NFL last season in number of blitzs under Vic.

Bolles needs to go to the bench, maybe it’ll give him a wake up call to stop the obvious dumb mental mistakes.

There have been whispers that he is difficult to coach. So far, he doesn't seem to have shown any improvement this year in spite of having one of the best o line coaches in the entire NFL. It's still early, but I'd be surprised if he was still on this team by next season.

That 2nd penalty was an absolute killer, because McManus probably can get the FG from 55 in.   And we don't have to throw the ball 2x, and then use up zero clock.  Now we give the Bears the ball back....and no FG.  Such a HUGE swing there.  Asking a lot of our D to hold up, but what else is new.

The D comes up big.   It's pretty telling though that we didn't call TO with 1:25 left and 3 TO's.    A team with a ton of confidence in their O saves the time and 2 TO's.   

HUGE punt by CHI, now we're inside our 20.   I wouldn't be surprised if we just clock this now.

Wow.   This is just ridiculous.   That 3rd hold by Bolles this half (and what's with the ragdoll? Come on) allows CHI to stop us with their 3rd TO.  OMG Bolles could be costing us more than 3 points now.   

You give a 1st round draft pick until their 3rd year at latest to expect good play.   Frankly, year 2 is generous.  This is ridiculous.
