Game thread? Bears @ Dolphins

Need more than 7 points a half unfortunately. If we could have gotten a FG there it would have helped tremendously. One bad play would not have equalized the score. Now we are one fuck up from being tied. Offense must find a way to score 10-14 points in the second half.

On the bright side we scored in the first quarter for the first time since Jesus was a baby.

So let’s see what Miami does to adjust:

I think they’re getting good pressure on D, if they can continue that and force Trubisky out and make bad decisions, it could get Miami a TO.

On offense, continue running it up the middle. They’ve done a good job at keeping Osweiler clean (unusual for this team), so let’s hope that continues. Mack having an ankle injury helps. Hopefully that sucker swells up and limits his mobility for the 2nd half.

Keep Osweiler relatively clean, and he can do okay. His decision-making has always been suspect, IMO, but keep him from making tosses like that one to Parker. Not an exciting game, but well-fought, which Miami has a lot of experience with.

Limit those big plays by the Bears. Let’s see if Miami goes over the middle a little more in the second half when those LBs cheat against the run.

Disagree. We just need one thirty minute drive and we run out the clock

How are we using O’Leary? As a regular TE or as a FB?

I missed the first half and will watch it later, but Osweiler looking comfortable with this offense. Maybe a QB controversy? I think that pick at the end of the half was on Parker, lost inside leverage and only played the ball after it was picked. Mother****er was 1v1.

No QB controversy. Line is actually playing well, which has been the issue the entire year. I mean, Osweiler scored 7. Most QBs can play solid with a little time. Looks comfortable in the offense. Kudos to Gase.

If he’s #83, a little of both. I didn’t know he was Jack Nicklaus’ grandson.

Lol of course, Im just excited. I turned the game on late expecting something else.

Damn Minkah. You get a pass because you’re a rook.

If he is playing as a FB that would signal a change Gase made and commitment to the run I am happy to see.

Time for a turnover!

Well, that was quick. 7-7

trick play drive for the Bears. :pity:

Sucks!

Flood gates are going to open now!

The exact start to the second half we all feared. Now the offense must respond or we lose momentum in this game.

For the Bears offense? ;-)

I honestly wish the NFL had college football’s pass interference rule. The NFL is basically assuming the receiver would make the long catch on the boundary... minkah committed a foul yes, but the rule needs to be changed to a 15 yard penalty

There's the lobster

Oh boy

That pass was pathetically telegraphed and an easy interception by Fuller.

Yikes.

Breaking News. Osweiler is still a bum.

There’s Osweiler

Damn that was quick

Wow. That was quick.
