ThatJerkDave Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Honestly, the Bears are growing slowly as this season progresses. The last 4 or 5 weeks they have looked better than the completely hopeless Bears from last season or the beginning of this season. I think they are on the low end of mediocre.

Toddfather Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I love we are now not only talking playoffs, but taking the division lol. Damn the NFL is a crazy rollercoaster ride. Gotta love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that but they are not good at rushing the passer. Hutchinson has 1 sack in the last 7 games. That is pathetic. I'm curious how high his ceiling actually is. I don't think Hutch was ever a guy who was going to lead the league in sacks, but he'll play 80%+ of the defensive snaps and hit double-digit sacks consistently.

If I believed in their corners, they'd actually be a good defense. But I don't. Their safeties are legit, but their corners need upgrade badly.

thrILL! Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 FILTHY move by OBJ to get wide open and an even better adjustment to catch the deep ball for the TD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branch has a true safety is easy to expose because he's slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got 4.5 3.5 to go this year to reach 10. Fields walked right into his arms. Thibodeaux has 11 sacks this year already. Teams twisted themselves in knots to not like that kid.

thrILL! Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 That's why Joe Flacco was at home watching games lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How NYJ didn’t sign him when rodgers went down is hilarious I think that they think Wilson was salvageable, but Rodgers would put them over the top for a year or two shot. Much like the Broncos, they probably overestimated their own in house talent. Who knows how much better the Jets would be if Rodgers didn't get injured, we never got to see that team, but they are really floundering right now. I also kind of wonder if Tim Boyle didn't do a lot of good work with Jordan Love. They couldn't get Clements, we have him. But they get Boyle in to help Wilson develop and as a player that both Hackett and Rodgers are comfortable working with on the sidelines? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
