Hurts was terrible tonight. The best thing he did was get set fast at the LOS and walk forward a yard.

The Superbowl win was great. Might be a bit before we see another.

That he's upset the Phillies lost in 2.

No sacks and only 3 QB hits on Case Keenum. Good stuff

That’s because we don’t have one legit defensive end on this team. Not a one….

Embarrassing. I can handle losing, but getting thoroughly outplayed by a Bears team starting Case Keenum is ridiculous. Three turnovers, 10 penalties, zero takeaways, and we got pushed around at the line of scrimmage.

The worst part is we somehow went into halftime down only 10-7, then came out and got outscored 17-0. You were handed a chance to reset and completely crapped the bed instead.

2-1 isn’t the end of the world, but that performance was unacceptable. Figure it out.

Being 2-1 isn't the end of the world. How they got there is the problem. They don't look like there's a path to another 5 wins all season. Maybe they will get better, but they were out coached, out toughed, and out willed tonight. The Bears took their manhood tonight.


And the 2nd half... they had NO answers. They were so bad they didn't even seem to know what the questions were.

Don't be hyperbolic. He was good on that entire drive. But, outside of that drive... not much. The previous drive was pretty much all Barkley.

The only time the defense did anything all night was after the Bixby turnover where they held the Bears to zero on that short field. Otherwise, the defense was terrible all night. They couldn’t get themselves off the field. Whether would be penalty or them missing a tackle or just lost in coverage.

I would also say I would bench Campbell. He misses more tackles and is always out of position against the run. At this point you’re better off seeing what Trotter Jr can do. I get that Campbell’s a first round pick, but sometimes they’re just not as good as you thought or take longer to get there like Dean .

I truly believe that Trotter Jr is more instinctive, and frankly, more physical.

Worth noting the Bears defenses sucks ass and is barely better than Commanders/Titans

We said that in 2019/2020 as well. Lightning struck multiple times for us recently. I'll keep hope alive. But, this year... yeah, I don't see it happening this year.

Will definitely be with a different QB

They did? This is one of if not the worst defensive performance we’ve had in the last couple of years, and yes against Case Keenum

And yet the score was 13-7 halfway through the third quarter.

Yes, the defense had a bad night. But even in having a bad night they kept the team in a one score game until 5 minutes left in the third quarter.

The offense is the problem. The offense has been the problem. The offense will continue to be the problem until something drastically changes.

That's true, but to be fair. Keenum literally was getting the ball out of his hands as soon as he snapped it to wide open WR's all night. But our line still sucks.

Had me fooled. Looked like the '85 Bears in the second half.

He had that great drive right before the half but other than that he was pretty trash too

Howie is the best GM in football, but being a GM is a lot like being a hitter in baseball. Hot streaks and cold streaks.

Last 4 consecutive top 60 picks are Campbell, Mukuba, Lemon, and Stowers. Last big offseason addition Greenard. That’s 5 players that aren’t helping the team.

Existing talent decays. It’s inevitable. Their 5 biggest investments have failed to replace it.

The team, chiefly the offense, isn’t talented and I’ve been telling you all offseason.

Trying to find some positives in a complete ish show of a game. They ran the ball well in the 1st half and run defense was pretty good until they got worn down. That's about it.

The pass defense looked completely lost. Blown coverages and big gaps in zones. Pass rush needs to get home. It has been a long time since I have seen so few pressures/sacks from an Eagles defense. Back to fundamentals as far as tackling goes. That was pitiful.

Likewise on pass O, it just doesn't look like they are on the same page. Maybe they will get it together but it better be soon.

As I’ve been saying, THE OFFENSE IS THE PROBLEM.

It’s been the problem since the Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs.

The OL is the biggest issue on the offense.

Because he can read a defense and adjust calls.

That’s his game. That’s what he’s good at.

It’s not hyperbolic to say he was terrible and I would absolutely argue that quick TD saving snap and sneak was his best play of the night.

Our defensive line struggles to control the line of scrimmage, our linebackers looked completely lost in coverage and playing the run, and our safeties are hot garbage. I don't know what's happened to Baun but he looks awful. Campbell never was any good and I don't understand the hype he continues to garner.

I've had it with success rate and EPA per play. We all saw the game and know how bad it was, we don't need that grifter BS. Meaningless junk stats.
