Chicago Bears vs Indianapolis Colts Game Thread

The Bears and the Colts. What will that look like...

@BearsWillWin are you at the game? Will you do some reporting for us?

GO Bears!

 

Reporting to you Las Vegas, NV today actually.

 

That's ridiculous. I distinctly heard Indianapolis!

 

I was going to say, I didn't think a 300-mile drive was in your future, at least not with this team, yet and possibly ever.

 

I actually live in Nashville these days so Indy is a quick hop up 65.

But I'm in Vegas this weekend to play a little poker and see some old friends.

 

You heard sammich. As in go make me one.

 

No Deforest Buckner, and last night Biggs tweets Matt Pryor is starting RG. This should be fun. Braxton and Wright get Paye (and the rookie Latu, who’ll be playing injured or out (he’s a game time decision) meaning you get a back up 30 year old back up Tyquan Lewis.

Cut loaf ass Nate Davis. Block somebody while you’re at it.

The packers really confused Richardson when he stayed in the pocket. They got him to throw some ugly and stupid passes which they picked off. I’m confident in Flus to scheme a guy who’s basically a rookie still because he missed last year with an injury.

No Keenan Allen. Keep the cute shit to a minimum and it’s a very winnable game. However, I expect their backup 3T to have a day on 65.

 

I expect a win today. I think Caleb will play much better against a much less scary defense.

The run absolutely has to get going. I believe CW is our leading rusher on the season currently with something like 59 yards. That's pathetic.

The defense has proven to be very good so I don't think we have anything to worry about there.

 

A lot of talk in practice this week that the biggest issue on the line has been communication. Including some videos where CW is correctly diagnosing the defense presnap with mike reads and the oline does the complete opposite of what they should.

It will be interesting to see if there are any subtle blocking scheme changes.

 

The whole game will come down to the o-line. If they play the way they did the first two weeks we will lose.

Offense needs to look to establish the power run game from the first drive. We'll know pretty quickly if things are going to play out differently.

 

Velus inactive again. Always a good sign.

So is Zach Pickens. But I wasn’t feeling good about any of the interior DL against the colts IOL.

Dom Robinson out, Byron Cowart in at DE.

 

Getting the ball to start.

Set the tone from the 1st play.

 

Not on the same page. Gross

 

Ugh. Terrible miscommunication.

 

Hey, if they don’t feel like covering Cole Kmet, that’s fine.

 

Good job Cole.

DJ better wake TF up.

 

Good run Roschon

 

Under C, Johnsn up the gut. 8yards lol.

 

Ugh. Missed a huge cut there Roschon.

Go for it

 

What is that 3rd down play call?
Fuck off man
