If we miss the playoffs

Ill bite and take the road with less sarcasm:

That's a lot of bad passes
Dumb play calls
Poor footwork
Poor pocket presense
Bad reads
Poorly executed plays
Overthrows
Sidearm throws
Throws off your back foot while facing zero pressure
Rushing your throws
Not stepping up in the pocket
Not seeing the entire field
And last but not least...too many throws to durham.

More pressure and drops. Very few Staffords actual fault. The tape doesn't lie. Plus on low attempts, a handful of drops can greatly skew it.

Calvin and Bush have probems too. Bell and Burleson have a couple but not a trend. Durham only due to injuries by Young and Broyles.

Way to side step that one buddy.

Yeah. God damn Bush and Calvin making Stafford's life hell. It must be hard for Matt to make these guys look so good.

You're delusional or a troll. Can't decide.

Let me get this straight. They were down in the 4th quarter in 3 of the last 4 games. Staff completed 24% of his passes in the 4th quarter of those 4 games. In the game they won he completed 2 of 2 passes.

If they were down, have this great QB and offense...why did they have so few attempts? It's either poor coaching / play calling or poor execution on the part of the QB.

Drops kill drives. So do fluke fumbles by Durham and Calvin giving away the ball. One sack to end drive after Bush drop on screen on the 3rd Tampa 4th Qtr drive. Steelers and Eagles controlled TOP with long drives. Less chances.
 
I know what happend. Tom and Mitch are just guessing based on a stat with no context. The game tape doesn't lie.

drops kill drives just as bad as shitty passes. with 24% completion percentage there were a LOT of shitty passes too!

We throw more than anyone in the league...so the fact we drop 4 % more passes yhan anyone else should be a red flag. The fact its the same as previous years....are you ready for this?....its the qb, his mechanics, and his accuracy issues.

No its not. They are great passes if you actually watch the game and also realize when there is pressure too. 4% more is a WR concentration problem even good ones like Calvin and Bush (8 drops each). Then you have Durham playing for injured guys. And its higher than years past by about 3%. Thats 3% of his attempts by the way.

Blaming Stafford is dumb.
 
You're correct they don't lie. Tape says he's been bad.

Losing 6 games says he's not very good either. 4th qtr performance. Completion %. Haven't won the division since he's been here. All pretty good indicators you have an average qb.
 
Well our next two games are at home Mitch.. Our head coach has never won back to back
home games... Well we need it now.. I hope he can do it..

and the Lions havent beat Washington in 50 years at Washington, Staff has never beat the Bears. All that accomplished this year. Have faith, brother

FYI...We did win back to back home games to the start the season in 2011. That was the playoff year we started 5-0. We destroyed KC in week 2 and then beat the Bears in week 5.

We also did it in 2010 when we finished the season on a 4 game win streak. We beat GB 7-3 in December and then won our next home game a couple weeks later against Minnesota.
 
Bears reportedly going to start cutler Sunday over Mccown this could mean we might be able to lose one more yet and still win the div over them as cutler will lose them one yet...can you lions please just go ahead and get your heads out your asses though anyway and get it done! Tia

they aren't doing cutler any favors.....tough to knock the rust off vs a tough cle defense. hes going to look like shit compared to the easy teams mccown has faced.
 
Fortunately for the Bears they get to play Philly and GB to finish the season, two of the worst pass defenses in the league.

He meant 2 games in a row, like week two and then week three.
