Billingsley99 Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Does anyone know how late in the season has a divisional leading team only have 1 win. I would l think we are seeing it now in the NFC East Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll know more about the Bears after this week. The Bucs don't have the Colts defense and the Bears D did a fine job yesterday. Holding any NFL team under 300 yards and under 20 usually translates to wins. Like I said....I'll know more about Bears after this week but I don't think we'll face a defense like the Colts the rest of the year.

Like I said....I'll know more about Bears after this week but I don't think we'll face a defense like the Colts the rest of the year. I was concerned Fole's 2nd half last week was fool's gold. Many times when teams make a spontaneous QB change in the middle of the game the opposing defense isn't prepared for it and the QB looks amazing. It reminds me of the time when Kaepernick came into the game when the Bears were playing them....he absolutely destroyed them that 2nd half and looked like the second coming. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said....I'll know more about Bears after this week but I don't think we'll face a defense like the Colts the rest of the year. Yes, the Bears defense played fine yesterday, but you may be overstating it a bit. The Colts controlled field position and possession from the start (and led every minute of the game after the first possession and led by two scores almost the entire second half). That certainly impact the Colts play calling; the Colts kicked four field goals and they were all short/relatively short. The Bears just as easily could have given up 27 points and gotten blown out yesterday. I think the Colts defense is really good, but I'm not convinced it's some generational defense that is better than any defense you'll face all year; I just don't think the Bears are very good and they've benefited from an incredibly light schedule thus far. The Bears played three of their easiest five games in the first three weeks of the season IMO; I can see the wheels falling off pretty quickly over the next 5 weeks.

Billingsley99 Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 I thought that making the QB switch the Bears would open up the playbook more but it looked the same thing as Mitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted October 5, 2020 Report Share Posted October 5, 2020 Bill O'Brien out in Houston. Can't fault the move. You dismantle a team with a kid like Watson at the helm. Can't wait for the Mike Leach talk to fire up. Haha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted October 6, 2020 Report Share Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) We've been lucky enough as IU fans to be raised or watch one of the greatest coaches of all time. I hope it helps all of us appreciate it when we see it. I'll say this about Belichick. To be down only 6-3 at half with what KC has on the field relative to what BB has?? Phenomenal coaching by Patriots. Coaching, culture, strategy....and I detest most things Boston.

On top of Melvin Gordon being one of my RB's (game is in jeopardy) I also have Ronald Jones in another league....and even if Fournette is out I'm not keen on starting him vs Bears rush defense. I'm honestly looking at going Latavius Murray, Chase Edmonds in a couple leagues this week because of matchups and games potentially being postponed.

I'm honestly looking at going Latavius Murray, Chase Edmonds in a couple leagues this week because of matchups and games potentially being postponed. I picked up both L Bell and Johnson on waivers, and have to wait to see who is playing and what games may be postponed. Right now, I will have Carson at one RB position and will have to choose between the above two, Fournette and Miles Gaskins, as Chubb is hurt. Not liking the Bucs matchup either, and doesn't help that Fournette is a game time decision. On top of all that, my QB is Josh Allen, and I also have Diggs. If the Bills-Titans game is postponed, my other qb-Stafford, is on bye and I'll have to shop the waiver wires. At first glance, my best options are Carr and Herbert. Not particularly thrilled with either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
