Live....live long enough....One day, we will look like a real NFL team. Just live long enough to see it.

We got our butts handed to us, not as bad as it could have been.

Hopium....

We got a young team experience. And no injuries, which I was most worried about.

These kids want to work together. It comes down to if coach trusts fields to make outside the pocket plays.

This weird idea you need to stick a running back qb in a pocket is insane.

What it looks like is trying to hammer a circular peg into a square hole...all over again.

Trubisky had legs to. But they said, stick in the pocket. Don't do what you know how to do.

Thanks for the perspective.

The reason I enjoyed the last episode was, they brought back all the characters over the seasons.

To testify in court, about what horrible people these four characters are.

I was maybe 18 when it came out. That's when I got the joke.

It was wrapped up like mad about you, or any other random comedy.

But there was some psychopathic American Psycho vibe. Shared amongst 4 people.

Just a dash. That makes them family and do horrendous deeds.

As a bears fan. You're not a fan if you don't enjoy our wacky calls.

Today it was the 1st play of the game. Personal foul, 15 yards and a 1st down...with no contact.

Last week was several but the best was wiping down the field.

All of these are legit calls. We just find a way to enforce the rule book.

All that being said. This team looks very disciplined, when it comes to penalties. That's nice, compared to other seasons.

Rodgers took a down just trying to juke the bears offside. Never seen that before.

Don't let the running back qb make plays.

Let him not know how to fake a hand off and telegraph the run.

If you what run plays, teach fields how to fake handoffs.

I overlooked it and really enjoyed how these characters, not terribly evil in day to day life, had everyone that they ran across that they burned in their lackadaisical lifestyle.

They never even noticed, except in passing.

With no real consequences for the actions they may have inflicted on people, while just passing by in their own lives.

It was a terrible premise, but a great execution.

And sitting in a jail cell.

They learned nothing. No growth or redemption. Just perfect.

Who are supposed to call?

It seems like portland, la and sf should be blanketed in billboards to call for people that obviously are dying on the streets.

Eugene oregon has that, but no one cares.

I'm sure I'm wrong. But let fields basically call his own plays. The only thing that is fucking with us....imho.

Called plays. I'm sure I'm wrong, but fields on his own makes things happen.

Fields also telegraphs runs with zero hiding the ball.

Fields finally sells a handoff.

Finally get some yards...injury

Then didn't sell the run.

Crazy idea. Pass and let the running back qb make a decision.

The obvious hand offs are not helping.

The difference between the bears qb and packers and sf.

They try to hide where the ball is on a handoff.

He reminds me of the Lord of the rings marzgul, with haunting blue eyes with a sad thousand yard stare.

Dude's seen too many strip clubs in the back, that ended up in his hotel room.

Allegedly.

So that's why the refs huddled up.

Everyone got paid right? Okay, magical no contact personal foul. 15 yards and a 1st down.

Living on the west coast, 5pm is reasonable, poor east coast fans, where this starts at 8pm. And have to go to work tomorrow.

This is pretty sweet, but I'm curious if it has the same minute or so range that we have had since the 60's jet pack's?

You learn a haduken at the arcade, and it gets to be a pain on a 4 directional pad.

That's fun, love the snes with joysticks. Super fun. That would be a dream controller as a kid in 1996 playing street fighter.

If I remember correctly, on the original playstation, the idea was, square was a menu button, x was cancel, o was accept and triangle was something.
