IU Scott Posted November 29, 2020 Report Share Posted November 29, 2020 Well the Colts defense only have up ,3 points in the second half. They need to figure out how to start the game out better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted November 29, 2020 Report Share Posted November 29, 2020 When was the last time two teams COMBINED for less than 100 yards passing. It could happen today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 I am sorry but that on Mahomes should not be considered a roughing the passer. Also this looks like the head ref of the Colts game last week that called like 8 holding penalties on the Colts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 I've been a Bears fan all my life. The embarrassing part is we could still make the playoffs. The heart and pulse of Chicago has always been the Bears. Not the Cubs, Bulls, Blackhawks,etc...maybe it's age or probably not maturity but I'm getting close to the apathy stage. It's a joke of ownership. The GM is is similar to what IU had as an AD in the early 2000's......and yet we just roll with things. If Pace/Nagy aren't terminated by Tuesday I'll know which way ownership wants me to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Pace/Nagy aren't terminated by Tuesday I'll know which way ownership wants me to go. I'm with you....but we all know this ownership is very unlikely to make a change until after the season is over. The big problem is I don't trust this ownership to hire a competent football guy for GM anyway. Pace is a joke to me at this point...he made that ridiculous decision to reach up one spot in the draft to get Trubisky and has refused to admit it was a huge mistake and try to remedy it. Instead he continued to grasp at straws to try to make it work. It clearly has not. Having said that, my main gripe with Pace is the offensive line is and has been a joke and he has done next to nothing to try to improve the situation. Bears can't run the ball OR pass protect. Big difference between Ballard and Pace...look at the Colts offensive line vs the Bears. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figure out a deal and get him on board asap because our salary cap is such a mess....only way to rebuild this thing is to trade some of our favorites on defense. The whole world is going to make a run at Bienemy in the offseason. With Riddick I'd like to think we could have a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Riddick just praise the Bears skill position players not that long ago? And didn't he call their defense championship caliber? And then blasted their OL? To me, that sounds like he thinks they aren't far away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used correctly he thinks there are some very good pieces there besides the most important one. Riddick has long praised some of the Bears. Could be a match. Who knows what will happen with a kid like Dak or any of the other QB's out there. Just takes 1 guy to change an entire outlook for a franchise.

Pretty sure Foles signed 3 year contract...I can't recall $$ amount. He is a good backup, but knowing Pace I'm sure Bears overpaid. EDIT: I checked...it was 3 years/24 million and he is guaranteed 21 million. Edited November 30, 2020 by FritzIam4IU 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch is done and Foles as Fritz said is essentially a one year deal. Problem is cap is coming down probably 25% and we're still in trouble.

I hear ya. But Denver might have been able to jump into to mix with a win on Sunday.... had not the NFL pulled the rug from out of their legs. Only positive was Denver not getting shut out. 465 consecutive home games without a shut out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much that's the list. Maybe Andy Dalton too.....but I'm going back into total rebuild mode. We have zero draft equity, cap space is minimal and an organization that is bent on being 8-8. I'd feel better if we went total Dolphins mode and rebuild for 2 years out from now. On a side note if we don't beat the Lions this weekend the entire operation should be let go before they hit the tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
