They had a great drive against an inferior defense. Exactly what you'd hope out of your first string. Also exactly what they wouldn't have done the past few years. They've met reasonable expectations. And yes, we've reached the point that merely meeting reasonable expectations is exciting. But nonetheless...
That's true. I kept waiting to see holding called
Yeah I'm guessing Jones gets it until halftime?
There is no way our line looks this good in regular season. The last time I saw domination like that at the NFL level was the 16 Boys. These guys are improved on the crap we have been trotting out there, but there really isn't much to be dissected when we dominated so hard up front. I will say our WRs that need to step up looked good.
Really good start
..that is a weaksauce penalty.
Incidental contact should be a no call.
Hill is a player. That would have gone a long way if not for his hustle
But I think a few reps are good. Surprised the bears aren’t playing any of their main guys
And that was an obvious penalty on Carter. He didn't club him in the head but it was plenty enough to draw a flag. That will be called every time. The rules are the rules, players have to adjust. Just can't go anywhere near the head of the QB, even if you dont hit him hard it''s going to be called.
That's something to work with
Agreed.
That really didn't figure into this drive. The Bears were getting the passes out really quickly.
Agreed! He hustled his ass off to across the field to help stop that play. I was extremely impressed!!!
Yep. Two plays in a row his closing speed prevented a first down or big play
Has to make tackles.
Agreed. Eli is done for the night.
