Nonsense, Bears offense had it to a 5 point game. Bears defense failed to get the ball back

Bears defense got them the ball back with that 5 point game. The bears offense then punted. But that drive didn’t matter right?

Old buddies Leonard Henry and McCaffery exchanging their #22 jerseys.
Two good ones

Having said that, I don’t want Barkley and Zeke exchanging jerseys

You have an obtuse way of looking at things. You’re right. Forget the first 30 minutes of the game
When the bears offense did literally nothing. Those 30 minutes didn’t matter. Not at all.
Allowing eagles to go up 19-0 really helped huh, forget that they allowed philly to run clock all game.

When the game is that close at the end of the game that's all that matters and the defense failed. Those are the facts

“allowing”
The eagles to go up 19-0?

ya know what also stops a team from going up 19-0? When your team scores.

saying “those are the facts” but ignoring other facts about the game isn’t a strong argument.

Decade? I would rank it right up there with losing to the expansion Texans.

I remember the 1984 Cowboys were 7-4 when they lost at Buffalo to the 0-11 Bills. Dallas would finish 9-7 and miss the playoffs by 1 game. :facepalm:

I mean, 19 points the entire game isn't exactly that much. At some point, the defense being on the field so long will impact performance. Bears had like 1 yard for an entire quarter.

While the Bears D has certainly been inconsistent, I don't exactly blame them too much this year. They had to carry Mitch all last season, and Mitch is even worse this year. You're putting a lot on a defense.

Carry trubisky last year? He had 24 TDs and 12 picks. I'm not saying he is a top 10 QB and maybe not even top 15 but he wasn't carried. Bears defense was a beast last year though.

That being said I blamed the defense because they couldn't get a stop when it needed most. Had they got the ball back and Trubisky and the offense couldn't score than I would blame them. Eagles on that last drive abused the defense and picked up numerous 3rd and very long while running clock.
