sparkyjoe1 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Not converting those 2 field goals was pretty big. They weren't gimmes, but they were certainly makable. Game is likely different if we get those points and slow down the momentum swing. It's nice to win these games that we would typically lose in the past. What makes it even better is the packers losing! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be moments where they get got, but we’ve seen Kendricks stick with receivers this year, and Asamoah certainly has the speed and athleticism to carry a receiver down field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably I always jokingly call it a "revenge game" for fringe players. We did make Fields look good though. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say Fields was efficient, which is going to happen against a defense that is intent of keeping everything in front of them. But I think it’s a bit a stretch to say they made him look good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made some really nice throws in the 2nd half and was making plays with his legs. The Bears need to spend a lot of time and money on perimeter help for Fields in the offseason.

Sir Fobos Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 That game-ending strip by Dantzler was hilarious. Even though he missed the tackle he didn't quit on the play. I ALMOST feel bad for ISM. The Vikes made the major mistake of letting the Bears get back into this game. Instead of having the wind taken out of their sails, the Bears kept playing hard because they knew they could win it. All 3 units had some serious lapses, but they played hard and it's nice to see them get another win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's most unnerving is that this defensive system is specifically built to show down comeback by constantly playing with the high shell. To come back from an 18-point deficit should have taken much, much longer than it did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Aaron Leming@AaronLemingNFL #Bears QB Justin Fields accounted for 255 of the team’s 288 total yards. That’s 89% of the team’s total offense that went through its QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relatively speaking, isn’t that one of his best stat lines this year. Maybe career, I don’t know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems Chicago was gifted good field position on multiple occasions due to ST mishaps like the punt and the missed field goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s his best game of the year, but that’s not saying much. A QB in the NFL isn’t going to be held under 200 yards for long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Next Gen stat of the game: Kirk Cousins completed his first 17 pass attempts as the Vikings scored three touchdowns in the first half. Taking into account the difficulty of each throw, Cousins had just a 1.3% chance of completing all 17 passes. NFL Research: Justin Jefferson has tied Hall of Famers Randy Moss and Lance Alworth for the most games (six) with 150-plus receiving yards in a player's first three NFL seasons since at least 1950.
