Morning after thoughts *Week 6 F*** You Edition*

If you watch the play, what really happened on this was the D was in zone, and the DB covering that zone (Standing on the M) didn't make the play. So, the ref decided to take matters into his own hands and fuck the Bears in the ass.

 

Well looking at I have to agree 100 percent .

Both of the Bears' losses this season have been completely preventable if Nagy had performed better in high-leverage situations.

True

 

A pretty fascinating article. And as it pertains to Reid, very insightful imo(Reid's ultimate level of success has never quite matched his overall win-loss record imo).

And I agree. In the end, Nagy did get what he deserved.

 

Not crazy about this response below , to me he's saying well I threw it last time and I got questions so this time I am running it ... basically he's not making the correct call at that particular time , what happened prior means nothing when it's a different team and different situation overall ... if he's really worried about questions after game decisions already then yes there is a potential problem with him as a HC .

Matt Nagy on second-guessing about the 3rd down run call in OT: "We could do that all day. If we throw it, then you’re up here asking me why we took a sack."

 

Good post Mongo.

 

Tons of one I have already covered, but here are mine (if you're allergic to the word 'fuck,' better get a prescription):

1) Cody Parkey got 4 years, 15 mil. That's 3.75 per year, making him the 7th highest paid kicker in the NFL. I'm going to get to Nagy, his playcalling, and the 3 downs before the missed kick, but that's no excuse. Until the bears signed him, he was 87.5% from 50+ yards for his career, albeit just being 7/8 before this year.

Un-fucking-acceptable.

2) The more I watch Jordan Howard on the touches he does get, the more I see a Jimmy Butler-type situation with Chicago fans (sorry for the apples/oranges of NFL and NBA, but I just see the similarities too much here), where the fans grotesquely overvalue and overrate what's actually an above average player. On a bad team, he was the guy, he was the rock. But now that the bears are playing to win, a guy who now garners an immediate red flag by defensive coordinators is not an asset.

Problem is, his bad fumble didnt help, and 2 runs of 16 and 19 yards in the 4th quarter inflated his piss poor stat line to see 4.9 YPC. Before those 2 runs, he was 12 rushes for 35 yards.

If you can get a 2nd or a pair of 3rds for Jordan Howard, deal him. That's where I am with Jordan Howard.

The more I see Matt Nagy's offense, the more I don't see need for Jordan Howard. Don't delay the inevitable, Ryan Pace; it was a solid pick, and he put up stats under Frodo and Fox and gave fans something to root for amid the shit, but he's not a necessity. He's not the difference between this being a super bowl team and not one. If the Eagles want him that bad (some media outlets and pundits tend to think they do) then deal him, and find your 2 way back that fits Nagy's system next spring. Roll with Cunningham, who got possessions of plays in the game, Cohen, and Nall--the rookie they liked so much from Oregon State.

3) Fuck you, Bobby Massie. Beat by the speed rush constantly. Hung Mitch out to dry on a few bad misses. I've found a RT prospect I like. Kansas State's Dalton Risner. Not talked highly (yet), but he manhandled one of the best college pass rushers a week or two ago, Montez Sweat from Mississippi State, and on a really shitty KSU team, he's a rock.

He's on my wishlist for next April. Can scouts maybe not discover this fucking kid?

4) Tackling. No, I didn't fucking forget. Aaron Lynch again has reverted to "god he's bad" in my book, Eddie Jackson, Kyle Fuller, Adrian Amos, Trevathan and a lot of defensive players just looked gassed and forgot how to tackle. I'll lump 2 in 1 here, because while Kyle Fuller looked nice with the 2 INTs, his tackling was piss poor. The 2nd series of the game where old man Frank Gore carried him 8 extra yards on a run?

That's a 54 million dollar CB? Uhhhh.....you really want him, guy who replaced Ted Thompson in Green Bay?

5) Good side of injury news: Mark Grote, AM 670 in Chicago is the afternoon show's bears reporter, said today Fangio was unavailable so Nagy took all the questions all over--but Khalil Mack was seen not in a cast, boot, or taped up. He was walking fine without limp.

Bad side: Prince reinjured his hammy, and very likely will miss the Patriots. Which would mean rookie Kevin Tolliver draws Josh Gordon (or Edleman? I don't know how the pats depth chart their WRs with one being new and the other coming off PED suspension).

And Tom Brady is the quarterback.....

Fuck.

6) Mitch. Can't excuse some of the shithead throws, but he made a ton of great ones, and he and Gabriel have some phenomenal chemistry. Because he's throwing him open. Robinson too. I think he was a positive in the 2nd half, even though that horseshit penalty on Burton led to an INT. Gotta not be bad Rex there, kid. Now it would be great if he put together a string of games. He cant fuck up in a half learning the playbook against the Pats, who look like the Pats again.

7) Nagy. The OT up till the missed field goal I think he had a decent game. I think he had the right answer in the presser today when asked about settling for the 52 yard FG, that if he passed and Mitch took a sack he'd get grilled there too.

8) Fangio. You let bubble screen after bubble screen beat you. WHen Lynch plays like an idiot, along with Floyd, you had Isaiah Irving and Joel Ieyebuniwe (however the fuck you spell/pronounce it) both active.

35 year old Frank Gore punked you. And before you got Khalil Mack, you only gave up 1 100 yard rusher in all of 2017, Latavius Murray. Un. Fucking. Acceptable.

When they stop tackling, maybe put someone in who can tackle. Bearman said something in the game thread I can relate to in HS football, and I know they're pros and I was a nobody, but if I played like that--I'd be running till I puked today. Then shat on in film room, then running until I puke some more.

Then tackling dummies. Nagy said there'd be accountability today for shitty tackling in his presser--I can only hope.

9) Anybody else want to puke every time camera cut to Osweiler sitting on the bench next to Frodo? Yeah, they lost to that.

 

Last night, the Packers ran a "similar" play. It wasn't the exact same formation. It wasn't the same side of the field. But it was a similar type of goal line pass.

But what was distictly different is that the Packrs DID in fact commit PI and The Packers DID engage a DB during a pass. Oh, and no PI was called and they didn't reverse the TD.

 

That's a pretty clear example of how reffing differs between teams and games.

 

Rodgers also intentionally grounded the ball at least two times...one was blatant...and didn’t get called for it.

Had a drive extended at the end by a illegal contact when he had taken a sack.

NFL officiating had never been great. It’s at an all time low. I’ve never seen calls this inconsistent in my life.

It’s like the NFL hired Joe West to oversee officiating.

 

Who is Joe West?

 

A really bad, egomaniacal baseball umpire.

 

Ah, thanks Bear-man

Do refs get like that very often? They have 100s of thousands of people watching them and scrutinizing their every move ... does that turn some of them into megomaniacs?

 

You're being far too kind to that asshole.

See him call Altuve's home run an out last night when Betts closed his glove without the ball in it?

Joe West decides who wins games, not the better team. Just put in an electronic strike zone, already.
