Guess Herbert is droppable.

Moooooth!

I wouldn't be dropping him.

[Law 220]

It was a nice run, but 1 touch isn't gonna cut it. Not when the other guy is returning from a multi-game injury and is out-touching him 5 to 1.

Nagy strikes again!

[Mike FF Today 607]

This just in, the Bears offense is .

[Utilit99 4,099]

Have the Bears ever had a screen play that looked like a well executed screen play?

I'm convinced, the all the coaches need to be fired.

Tonight Chicago realizes Herbert is better than Montgomery

Hmmm, not so far.

[Hardcore troubadour 12,595]

Fields can’t throw. 

[nobody 2,032]

Something about Fields.  Announcers just can't say he made a bad play.  It's the play calling.  It's the receiver.  It's never him though.

Can I buy a period here?

 

[Law 220]

I wish Rodgers could "retire" now and then un-retire next week and say he's going to Pittsburgh.

14 to 3 now. Still close to 5 to 1. Not good.

So much for easy him in, just giving him a taste of the action before the bye.

Nagy is a Team Killer.

[Utilit99 4,099]

shlt. They are not calling fouls against pittsburgh. And that TD penalty against the Bears was garbage. 

 

Holy crap. How does this happen?

[Law 220]

Just now, gcmmidwest said:

Well, my sentence, as structured, didn't require one.

[shorepatrol 1,736]

Boooooooooooooy the refs are focking this game up. No skin in this game. Bears got fooooooooooooooooooooooocked

[Mike FF Today 607]

Mooth x2!

[Law 220]

Maybe I drop Herbert for Mooth! I mean, Hock ain't been doing anything!

[Utilit99 4,099]

Every penalty is against the Bears. Both the late hit on Fields and the blow to the head went without flags. 

[gcmmidwest 98]

It is grammatically correct to use a comma before "and" (and other coordinating conjunctions such as "but", "or", "nor") only when it splits two independent clauses (i.e. if you remove the "and" you will be left with two complete sentences), or if you're using it as an Oxford comma.

If you mean that run to the right in the first half, Fields turned up field and lowered his shoulder as he neared the sideline. He affirmed himself as a runner, not a QB heading out of bounds.

[Hardcore troubadour 12,595]

Fields can’t throw. 

[gcmmidwest 98]

You know how they say never say never? I'll say it fields will never be a good quarterback

I don't wish to get into a grammar showdown with you, but please trust me, your above quote is considered old-school.

No one fights the Oxford comma fight like me, but the rest of that "rule" is so 1980s!

Second half late hit on the QB that the broadcast announcers talked about being missed. Along with the penalty called on the Bears oline for blocking low inside the TE box which the announcers were saying was completely wrong.

Along with the hit to the head the Steelers had on Fields.

Anyway. Whatever.

[Law 220]

Remember when Montgomery and Herbert and A Rob ALL used to a be thing at one time or another?

Yep! Thanks Coach Nagy!

Because he's on are team and we want more points

[Law 220]

Guess you didn't watch the previous 4 games either.

[easilyscan 553]

I haven't watched 4 NFL games all year. So Montgomery was out those 4 games & Herbert looked pretty good..... so what ?

Tonight, at least to this point, Montgomery is the better back.

We know why. 

[Fumbleweed 422]

Another game with brutal officiating. Every single week. 

[Law 220]

I feel for that Marsh guy. I've liked him as a player. That was pretty rough.

[snatchit 108]

its clear the refs are trying to throw the game for the Bears

[Mike FF Today 607]

Ohh my...

[Law 220]

Good to see the NFL is a game of fractions much like my fantasy season so far. The difference between a win and a loss is thisclose!
