Quote from: SoCalEagle on January 18, 2026, 10:22:33 PMWhy didn't the Bears go for two? They just pulled off an incredible play and had the Rams on their heels. Gotta go for two there, right? As a Rams fan, when the Bears lined up for an extra point I whispered to myself, Oh thank God.

A lot of 'what ifs' in the game for Bears' fans. Johnson will grow.
And hey, the Bears have a 1st round draft choice 

Nagy was 12-4 as a rookie head coach. I think we would all agree that Johnson is a better HC, but next year will be a lot harder. A 1st place schedule and lots of tape for coaches to study.

The Bears were objectively awful in short yardage all night. They failed to convert on 3rd-and-1 twice and 4th-and-1 another time. And on a 3rd- and 4th- and goal from the 2 on their second-to-last possession of the fourth quarter.

Kuhn has about as many deep thoughts as AJ Hawk.

Quote from: Markusquette on January 18, 2026, 10:00:22 PMIs he bouncy? Seems a bit slow. Definitely a shot blocker potential but not seeing much hope otherwise.

At MU, Jim McIlvaine is considered bouncy.

These are the notes for the 3 Heisenberg bans: 

"Take a breather, tired of moderation reports from your posts."
"Take a couple days off..."
"1 day ban for political rant"

Gosh, we're monsters!   So unfair!

If you're going to make actions against me public, you should get it correct.

You permanently banned me in 2018 (this is my second account).

You banned me for a week, four days after October 7, for defending Israel (in Superbar).

Your record of what is allowed and what gets banned/thread locked is highly partisan.

Quote from: tower912 on January 18, 2026, 01:23:13 PMRight now.  7+ feet and bouncy is always worth a shot.  If he develops, you get McCaskill.  If it doesn't work out you get McMorrow or Mbao.

Is he bouncy? Seems a bit slow. Definitely a shot blocker potential but not seeing much hope otherwise.

Quote from: Pakuni on January 18, 2026, 09:17:17 PMBears had a great season, and Ben Johnson deserves much/most of the credit for that.
But he left six points on the field tonight.

Speaking of questionable coaching - Rams are driving with a mix of runs and short passes, needing only a FG to win, and McVay calls back-to-back 25-yard fade routes to tight ends. WTF? If Mevis misses that kick ...

100% correct.
