Jota posted:My favorite part about Cary Williams bitching about practice making him tired is that Chip Kelly said Williams didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday this week. Dude is a bitch and isn't good. I can't wait for him to get off this team. I'm sorry but as an eagle fan who lives with two diehard dallas fans, Cary's "no no no" finger wave at the Dallas bench last year after denying Dez the tying two point conversion will make me sort of like him forever

Jon Bostic had a really excellent game?? Lots of Bears young defensive players played really well today. The strange thing is that in the first 3 games I'd say that unit has outplayed the offense. Cutler was kinda erratic and the running game is completely missing.

Bears got any DEs waiting in the wings? I thought Jared Allen looked completely ineffective unless he knew a pass was coming. Which I think is the definition of pass-rush specialist, not every-down starter

Kevlar v2.0 posted:I honestly think the last time the Bears won convincingly was against Tennessee in Week 9 of 2012. Even when they got big leads early against Pittsburgh and Dallas last season, they still let the other team get back into the game and I was sweating bullets in the 4th quarter. CHI v DAL last year was a blowout. The only reason that Romo was eventually able to put up points was because the Bears seemed to prefer midfield tackles rather than batting down passes in order to run out the clock.

I don't know, that doesn't pass the eye-ball test. Seriously, though, he puts some zip on those short/intermediate throws. I watch that softie Matt Ryan most of the time, and he seems to favor side-line throws with more touch. Cutler was just... drat.

I usually assume people who are paid to talk about football know more than me, I guess it's possible I missed something. Anyway if the wheels fall off Allen then Young becomes the full time starter and either Cornelius Washington or David Bass step in. Washington has been an interesting prospect but so far he hasn't been able to put his absurd measurables together at all.

Gruden spent at least some time on every Jets possession talking about how great a job D'Brickashaw Ferguson was doing blocking Jared Allen. I mean, this isn't shocking, Allen is getting older. The Falcons are dealing with the same issue with Osi on the roster, except the Falcons only use him as a situational pass rusher now, because he's a liability otherwise.

I mean Geno played like poo poo, deserved to lose, etc. We all know the offense is going to look like trash when David Nelson and Greg Salas are your outside receivers. But they really did get hosed on the Cutler fumble that should have been 7. And the phantom PI to gift the Bears a 1st and goal? Yeah, that should have been OPI instead where Jeffery pulled down Walls' arm.  It was winnable game and they weren't helped out by some horrific officiating.

Shrug, The Bears got the most bullshit phantom defensive holding call I have ever seen called against them to get the Jets into the redzone on the final drive. That and the PI equal each other out. The Fumble sucked, but the whistle blew before the Jets player even picked up the ball, and at live speed that totally looked like ground forcing the fumble.

The idea that Idzik thought it would be enough to bring in 1 competent WR on a team with not one NFL caliber starting WR last 2 seasons is almost a hard to believe as his pathetic bungling of the CB situation.

No, not really to your last two points. The Defensive holding was very much a fake penalty (but the DPI should have been OPI and therefore was a far worse blunder). The fumble ruling was egregious, really no defending that call.

Wait what? How is it laughable that a bad Defensive holding call to change a 3rd and long to a 1st and 10 inside the redzone on the final drive of the game is so far removed from a bad DPI call which did the same(only not in the final important moments of a game)

Ozu posted:I agree on the receiver situation. I really don't think the CBs have played all that badly aside from a gimpy Milliner in the GB game though. Allen and Walls are competent replacements; David Nelson is not. The CB's have been OK at times (especially in tackling) but you're judging them on a huge curve. There were blown coverages all over the place last night and the drive to start the 2nd half was an embarrassment. Dexo posted:Wait what? Because you had already benefited from a 14 point swing due to HORRIBLE calls or that play doesn't even matter?

I don't understand the WR thing either. Once you or someone else pointed out that the Jets drafted all of 2 WR's in the top 3 rounds in the last decade, I went from not-understanding to thinking-this-is-a-prank. All I can think of is Idzik looking at all of the weaknesses on the roster and then checking the draft boards/FA and goes "gently caress it, Brady throws to nobodies in New England every drat day," without ever stopping to realize he's starting Geno Smith at Quarterback. John Idzik: "If it's good enough for Belichick..."

Watching Geno wheel out of the pocket and choose to make the worst throws in history rather than run it loving baffled me. Like as soon as he let go of the ball after swinging outside I was waiting for the camera to pan to a wide open Jeremy Kerley but instead it was constantly a bad throw to a perfectly covered receiver. The thing that surprised me the most is the turnaround in Pass Pro for the Bears. Like, they start to look like an actual football team now. Run blocking is a different story, though e- Also Bostic looks really good (minus the dropped pick) when he's not over-pursuing the run or making those mental errors

For the most part, it appeared Geno ran out of the pocket when in many instances he could've just stepped forward and made a throw.

Late but drat it is easy to forget how good Phillip Rivers is. He played great and adjusted his throws against the wind and was really accurate. I don't think the Bills defense had a bad game so much as the Chargers really game planned. The Bills offense is a loving piece of goddamned poo poo. I hang the loss squarely on them. They scored 10 points and then 2 points for the other team. Manuel has terrible accuracy and leads his WRs into deathtraps. Nobody is surprised when Goodwin gets injured due to a lovely floating throw. He doesn't need to be benched but I don't really know how as a QB you can just suddenly discover accuracy so I'm not hopeful.
