MNF: Seahawks @ Bears

[spystud13 2371]

Whoops. 

[PittsburghTiger 6351]

well that's a quick momentum change

[Machinator 32103]

This Bears team has a mid-2000s feel to it.

[Machinator 32103]

That throw was worse than any Trubisky made today.

[PittsburghTiger 6351]

i don't mind the Bears. I always thought if I had to pick an NFC team that it could be the Bears.

ESPN did a terrible job explaining that drop kick. The reason they tried it was because there was a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on the extra point that put the kickoff at the 50.

bears defense is the real deal. still can't believe spider-2-y-banana let mack go.

Since giving away that Super Bowl they have been pretty unspectacular.

Helluva hang over.

Got caught up in the Russ hype and went away from what worked for them.

Combination of the Bears defense and Seattle O-line is going to have Russell seeing ghosts for a while.

They put a lot of money in their defense and didn't bother addressing the offensive line. Retaining Tom Cable for all those years didn't help.

[hayden_horn 11402]

what the fuck was the seattle player doing?

and that should be a safety, he didn't possess the ball until it was fully in the endzone.

[hayden_horn 11402]

and according to jeff tripplette, i'm wrong.

Rule is that after the kicking team touches the ball, the receiving team can grab it and if things go wrong they can opt to take it where the kicking team touched it. Or if it works, they can take the result of the play.

you were not wrong. he didn't have it until the ball was well over the line

Exactly. Build that Oline, run the ball successfully and let Russ work his magic in spots. He's not Aaron Rodgers.

Also, only watching this for the dicko road show.

Same, but the Bears defense is actually quite awesome and fun.

ah, this makes sense. i kind of remember a rule like this now. i don't have the volume particularly high at the moment.

[Machinator 32103]

Will Dickson do the onside kick?

looks like it! and he looks like he's going to drop kick it as well.

[spystud13 2371]

That didn’t do much.

Yep, the Cowboys (of all teams) scored on a punt return a few years back on this exact scenario. 

[hayden_horn 11402]

yeah, that was underwhelming. he can't kick that that hard and hope for recovery.

[PittsburghTiger 6351]

that's a wrap. boring game, but a fun fourth quarter. Bears defense looks pretty solid.
