MNF: Eagles at Bears Game thread

[DenCWBY]

Frikin cutler lazy pass to leave the field. He barley looked down field.

 

[MrPeanutbutter]

Just tuned in and saw that big combo hit on Wentz when he refused to slide, get down, or get out of bounds. Anything about Chicago's defense worry you guys?

Linebackers. That's about it. Their D Line is active but the secondary isn't awesome.

 

[erod]

So many variables. The sample size is too small for either guy. One or the other could flame out. Both could be great. Both might be flash in the pans.

Perhaps, but they both look the part. You can't fake poise.

I heard one of the beat writers up here claim that's one fear they have. Wentz still struggles with the notion that he can't sit back there and take a poundjng.

In the pregame, Gruden was talking to him and said he was worried about him taking so many hits and suggested he be more careful about taking hits and Wentz brushed him off and said its part of the job, so, like the article you read, he doesn't seem too worried about it.

We'll see if he holds up.

For all the talk about their not being any QBs coming out of college, there are several youngins' that appear to be doing pretty well this season (so far)

that was a rookie throw right there, Wentz got lucky.....

 

[basstapp]

Feel like I'm watching a college game with these short throws.

 

[RS12]

Wentz won't last in this league if he keeps taking hits like that. Just ask RGIII.

RG3 looks like a popsicle stick in a jersey. Not a great comparison.

 

[TRUTH87]

It will be a challenge for us against Kyle Long and that guy from the Packers. They look good. Have to expose their rookie center.

Full disclosure: My little brother is a diehard Bears fan so I know more than I should about the Bears.

i dont watch the bears much but im surrounded by their fans for obvious reasons. (live in IL)

id hate losing to them.

Nice dirt ball McWentz

 

[Sydla]

Too easy.

Can't believe they will have the lead at half.

 

[Alexander]

our passrush will be the key. if we pressure cutler he will make mistakes. we dont wana give him 8 seconds to find alshon

Our pass rush?

We have one?

 

[RS12]

Gotta catch that

They have had so little to cheer for in the last 30 years. Take pity on them.

 

[Sydla]

Great pass. Matthews dropped it.

Wentz is clearly a stud.

 

[Trouty]

Incredible touch on that dropped pass

 

[Carson]

Our pass rush?

Oh you know. The Irving and Mayowa sack exchange!!!

 

[DenCWBY]

Wentz got a heck of a touch.

 

[TRUTH87]

Our pass rush?

We have one?

our "passrush" .

 

[Real1st]

Matthews is so overrated.

 

[bayeslife]

Our pass rush?

We have one?

I'll have you know we're on pace for 16 sacks buddy

 

[BRoni]

Haha! I suppose you wanted the Cowboys to draft Wentz?

Not directed to me, but I did. If Elliot continues to improve then I'm more than happy with how things turned out with us lucking into Dak.
