2018 Season prediction thread

Kinda looking that way.

Absolutely LOVE what GB is doing right now. Showing the world how to beat Chicago. Their secondary is average at best. I actually think we have BETTER underneath WR?s. Tate, Riddick and even Powell should have a field day against them.

Sitting in the pocket is death against them....but being patient....taking the 6,7,8 yard catch and runs and taking calculated shots downfield seem to be working really well.

Crazy 2nd half. And there's still time left
 
Chicago offense doesn’t look great. Howard is a stud but their OL is not great in pass protection and Trubisky doesn’t seem to work through his progressions well. He seems to panic if the first read or two aren’t there.

Chicago LB and secondary are crap. Catch and run.....catch and run.....catch and run.

That only works if you can protect Stafford.
 
Obviously the Packers made adjustments during halftime, since it was like Superbowl 51, when the first half was all Falcons, and the second all Patriots. The Bears offense really put together only one and a half good drives to start the game, scoring a TD and FG. They weren't going to beat the Packers @ Lambeau by relying on scoring upon turnovers and otherwise kicking a couple of FGs during the remainder of the game. Packers also get away with their "hug" holds and pushoffs by the officiating more often when @ home.

Yes.....But you saw what Green Bay did in the second half. Three-step drops, ball out, catch and run. Even a bad offensive line can protect well enough for that to happen. What Detroit can?t do, is get themselves in third and long situations. Chicago?s pass rush is way too good to let Stafford sit back there for three or four seconds while routes develop.

Green Bay didn?t even threaten the run in the 2nd half but the tempo of the offense and short passing game just destroyed that defense.
 
I honestly thought people would be flocking to this thread to change their predictions..
 
I can't even make a prediction...i just watched an entire game of us not doing a single thing good. This was Sam fucking darnold that destroyed us lol. Run D, pass D, run game, turnovers, kick coverage, multiple missed field goals. How the fuck can you even predict this bunch of sad fucks to ever win a game?
 
Most uninspiring opening weekend of football I've ever watched. We are leagues behind our division rivals. I don't thing we win a divisional game. I doubt we win 6 games. This defense is going to get chewed up all year long.

I wonder if last night was injuries or the refs?

C?mon.....you know he?s gonna blame JBC and the ?Jets knew the plays? excuse.

Well guess what, there?s no excuse for somebody knowing your plays on game one. I don?t know who?s fault it is? Stafford?s or Cooters? But it doesn?t matter. If they know your signals game one it?s because you haven?t change them up in a while. There is no excuse for that at this level.

Holy shit yes.

Spartans get exposed.
Lions get ass raped.
My fantasy team loses a heart breaker.

0-3

Not a good weekend.
