Did they miss the bus?



Pretty sure Lovie say we are a running team does he not? and that we get off the bus running? Well did they miss that bus that goes to Soldier Field for the game today? 

Star-divide

And i know that ya we were down 14-7 and then 21-7 but come on turner that was when we were still in the first quarter thats no time to panic. but what do you do you decide to pass pass pass then try and to a little fake to forte and reverse with hester like come on dont try that just pound it up the gut with forte and then call a sweep or a something to the outside. i couldnt believe that we ran it maybe 7 times by the end of the first half that made me sick. what makes it even worse is the fact that forte wasnt even running half bad he had 2 carries or 20 yards i think but that was when the 1st was almost over. i think he ended with what 35 on 7 carries 5 yards a pop that aint all that bad hell its better than all yr. also im sick of every week seeing this we get down by two scores with 2 3 quaters to play and you hit the panic button and we throw the ball 40 times in a row how u made it back to the NFL i dont know but i know after this season i dont wanna ever see you working for the bears again. go call plays like  this for the packers and make them have the crappiest offence in the league.

thats my first post ppl so if i did anything wrong my bad

They should have learned from the losses the Cardinals had to Indy and Carolina.

That throwing 40 times and only running 10 times is a recipe for failure.

I know they watched the film of the Cardinals before this game, didn’t they see that?

Our defense gives up scores on a team's first 5 possesions

(4 tds & 1 fg) and you’re complaining about the RUNNING GAME?

“pounding it up the gut” only works if you have an offensive line, which we obviously don’t. You don’t “run the ball” just to say you did, if its not productive and you have a pro-bowl caliber QB you unleash him and go.

Obviously he’s upset about having Forte on his FF team.

We played a team

that came into the game with the 4th ranked run defense and 29th ranked pass defense. which one are you gonna work on first? seriously. 4th run d or 29th pass d.. add to the equation that we are totally being blown up on defense, not struggling, BLOWN UP.. you’re gonna throw. every time.

i'm fine with the run/pass breakdown

we can use screens/slants as substitutes for run plays. maybe it worked today, because the cardinals D didn’t get a whole lot of pressure. the real problem is that our defense can’t stop anyone. when you get down by that much, you do have to rely on the pass a lot more.

ugh

yeah, lets blame turner and cutler and anyone else on the offense for this lost. that makes perfect sense.

LOL

Thank you!

The offense, at least kept this game an embarrassment. It could have been a humiliation.

It was a humiliation

The score was much closer than what it should’ve been.

People who don’t care don’t respond, and people who do care do respond. Does that make sense Bronco fans trying to validate the trade?

im not just blaming the offence

hell dont get me wrong the defence played like shit today along with most of the season except for the browns but come on its the browns but all im saying is that you gotta at least try to run the ball more its not like they started the game down by 21 hell the whole first drive they didnt run once and you know what if they score tds then fine pass. but you still might wanna mix it up a lil bit more than in that game ya when you are down 21 27 then pass but when your still in the 1st quater or midway through the 2nd dont just abandon it thats all im saying.

the D

didn’t play like shit against Pittsburgh. Just saying.

First we get post about running too much now we get them for passing too much

what’s next posts that we kick too many field goals?

That’s not true!!! WHY THE F*CK WOULD YOU SAY THAT YOU AHOLE!! Ok maybe your right but you gotta give a little something here for it to work. I don’t know what I’m going to do this is the worst thing I’ve ever read, this day could not get any worse. Fine, F*ck it, you’re right.

yeah we're not running

because I don’t think the coaches feel we can effectively establish a running game. Because the line is so bad, it looks like they’re trying to throw to set up the run. The problem is we get down 700-0 by the time we’d want to try running.

Bears strategy

should be to win the toss at all costs, then be ultra-aggressive in getting the lead. Once that happens maybe the defense will “pin its ears back” and then, only then Turner can run the ball with efficiency.

Won't work

They tend to defer until the 2nd half even when they win the coin toss.

I was being very sarcastic

The key to any team’s victory is winning the coin toss!
