My .02
Defense defense defense. to take a team that score 59 the week before and hold them to 3. The NFL needs to take notice.
In the wet rainy conditions the offense wasn't going to be a big factor here. the real test was keeping the Bears High Flying offense on the ground. and we did.
The weather helped.
Wentz is what he is. A Backup QB. But he managed this game well, made a couple good throws when we needed them and didn't turn the ball over.
Aaron Jones was a horse. But he's too injury prone to keep taking that much of a beating.
Nice to see Addison get his first catches of the year.
Not getting a touchdown was concerning but with the weather the way it was, I was not surprised.
Caleb Williams is very talented and hard to catch and bring down, but we had him on the run all day. He was confused and befuddled a lot.
Dallas Turner is an early favorite for DPOY. 10 pressures and 2 sacks including the "imposing his will" sack to seal the game. Isaiah Rodgers was all over the place, Redmond was HUGE and Blake Cashman quietly had a really good day too.
If Will Reichard ever gets let go by the vikings before he's 40....I will be very upset. In those conditions he made three pivotal FGs. further if he ever is let go the Bears will sign him in a minute.
I can't get over the game winning sack. The way Turner just pushed Loveland into Bagent and then wrestled Bagent to the ground. Thing of Beauty.
2.0, both games in division, Top of the division. It's early and a lot of shit can go wrong from here, but this defense is legit. Now if we can just get the offense up to speed we can have some complete games.
It's my hope we don't get complacent over the next few weeks and lose to one of more of the Bucs, Dolphins, or Saints.
