MNF: Bears vs Vikings thread

[MrPeanutbutter]

So we going to hear this narrative all year about Dak playing behind this oline. It's really annoying.

What would be more annoying is if Dak was languishing behind a bad offensive line. Make no mistake about it, the O-Line is incredibly important to his success.

Listening to Gruden murder English is rough on the ears.

I truly do get that. But it's just seems that people do not give Dak or anybody else on this line any credit for actually being good around the internet. Hearing the same thing with Zeke too from those same people.

Jordan Howard has had at least one game this year where he didn't get the ball. Think about that for a second. What is the Bears staff thinking?

5th round pick.

Go Cubs Go at the Bears postgame. Pretty cool

Guess who's in first in the NFC?

Here's a hint: it's us.

But - uh - um - who have the Cowboys played?
That seems to be the theme among the haters.

It's true.

Who has anyone played? The league is just so bad.

Exibit A on how quickly it can fall apart with an o-line.
Like they said in broadcast; Dak had it made with this line.
Still have to excecute--which he is doing.

The Vikings are in real trouble now.
All games are tough to so e degree,but that road Vikings game doesnt look half as bad as it did early in tne year.

The teams on the schedule.

Parity all over the place. A 5-1 team just lost to a 1-6 team and looked terrible doing it.

The way people talk about this line is as if he's the only QB with a good offensive line.

For some reason, many fans don't want to admit that Dak has played in one of the best situations for any QB in the league, not just a rookie QB. To admit the oline, RBs , TE and WRs are direct factors in his success is not knocking him at all. There are many QBs that would thrive in this situation. I think Wentz would do well and even some of the QBs that fans label as bus drivers would look good. This is in no way a knock on Dak.

Minnesota look bad... Very bad.....

I thought the Vikings would be a stiff test but if the Bears cuffed them about I'm not so sure now.

And Dak is still very young and could be great, good, or mediocre, but this whole Dak experience makes the Joneses look like geniuses.

I would show this game to my team if I was jg, to show how a losing team can beat a 5-1 team.
This is what I dont want to happen with cleveland game, dont overlook or underestimate them.

No doubt.

Elliott, Murray, and Romo would say the same thing.
Playing behind trash much of his career, Tony took a beating along the way.
Then by 2014, they have a second year Freddy and 1st year stud named Martin, and all of sudden they're strong in the middle. The results were obvious.
Now, two years later, this unit is probably even better.
I'm sure the timing is frustrating; seeing what we could do in 2014 and what we have now, only to see that his time may be up here. All those years of broken ribs, playing with a punctured lung, playing with a 32nd rated defense and porous line, only to unimaginably still take the blame for 8-8.
Finally get the line in place and his time is almost up...lol.

In any case, the future IS bright.
Dak should be thrilled he may never have to deal with that.

 

[DFWJC]

The Bears......who just beat the Vikes...lol

lol got that right.

fwiw, the Vikings now are not the Vikings a few weeks ago. And the Bears, with a rejuvenated Cutler and some oft their inured defense back, were not the Bears of a couple of weeks ago either.

Week to week for sure in the league.

I want to say the Vikings are done but that division is not very good either with the Packers struggling. Still though, I just can't see a team with that offense do much.
