Lucas Patrick was gonna block someone? On the other team?
LOL.  It was shocking to see how many plays that one or multiple Bears O linemen were not even engage in blocking. It is one thing to be beaten by technique or physical ability but it is beyond bad to have linemen just standing around with no one to block. The Bears would be way better off if their OL was bull rushed off the field every play.

Looks like the Bear's Claypool will be a healthy scratch for the TB game. Precursor to being cut?

I would guess they are trying to trade him.

If they get a bag of used balls for him, Poles is the GM of the year.

I can see someone giving up a fifth or sixth for the guy. But since Poles was the guy who gave up a second for him about ten months ago, I wouldn't give him any awards.

Come on, he has done a bang up job.  ::)

Maybe a 6th. I was thinking the only thing they might get is a 7th, that can turn into a 6th with sufficient performances.

Right now the Bears have signaled they are not going to play him. Which eventually means he'll be likely cut. So the only reason to trade anything is because you want to claim him, before he is cut.

I don't see anyone giving a 5th, for the right to claim a player that has proven to two teams he has no desire to work hard, before he gets cut.

Hopefully Poles took Economics 101 and understands the concept of sunk cost. Lynch in SF obviously does.

It's a bold strategy committing 42 turnovers a game.

I'm starting to wonder if they know they aren't supposed to give the ball to the other team, cause most of these are self inflicted.

The Vikings look terrible. So many unnecessary mistakes. On the last TD, the safety completely bailed on his responsibility over the top.

Looking at the box score, Cousins is 30+ better QBR than Hurts. Crazy.

Man, it's sad the lengths people take their fandom. I'm sure Packers players get a lot of stuff based on just how much life in Wisconsin revolves around it.

I'd wager money this behavior is because of gambling, not pure fandom.

Looking forward to Chiefs at Jags game this afternoon . Should be some exciting QB play all around.

Bears moving easily with downfield passes out of shotgun/pistol.

So coaches promptly decide to start calling screen plays from under center

Richardson two more rushing touchdowns for Colts.

Said last week in his debut that it was questionable how long Richardson can stay healthy given his style of play.

More running QBs = more QB injuries.

JWags85

I'll be shocked if Fields plays a full season, and him being a running QB has nothing to do with it.  Besides him regressing with feel in the pocket and holding the ball...he barely has a pocket and this OL is full of turnstiles.  That last sack was absolutely pathetic protection
