Allen is a hoss... linebackers try to hit him like he is a normal QB.

...and the clock keeps ticking ticking ticking. Run Forest!!!

I would have a practice where Allen is not allowed to throw beyond the sticks the whole time. Force him to look shallow then deep and work on his touch on the short passes.

Dorsey needs to mix up that 1st down run. Chicago is bringing a safety down. These plays Dorsey is calling deep there is nothing there.

Allen needs to get back to reinforcing the basics that helped him become a reliable passer last year. Allen was having a lot of passes batted down at the line early this season this year and I noticed he has tried to incorporate a lot more passing angles to hit the throwing lanes and get around defenders hands. The kind of touch needed on those needs lots of practice.

We have won many close games. I would not go there. Could our defense and offense tighten up a bit in the 3rd and 4th yup. But they fight down to the wire, won't take that away. And McD wins a challenge... sweet.

I did not see that on the one replay, but yeah the knee was down when he extended the ball.

I don't blame Dorsey for running some short passing plays as Chicago was putting more guys in the box and playing zone well behind that. But receivers got to know they are catching in front of a zone and guys will be coming for the ball. Tre' is not back yet. Folks need to be patient... he is playing his way back.

They are leaving two linebackers close to the line and more guys in the box. Opened things up for Diggs there behind them underneath.

Josh is not on top of his game today, it happens. You have to coach the game that is happening, not the one you expect or plan to happen.

The Bears are either dropping everyone or bringing everyone. Dorsey needs to scheme up some blitz-beater plays. Chicago really is not disguising their blitzes on 3rd and longer than 5.

Still here commenting on the good and the bad in this game. Where are all the folks that whine about any critique? Never mind, found'em

Yup. We rag on Dane a lot, but that was a play we needed.

It does not have to be Allen playing hero, he has a running game. Use it. C'mon Bass.

No offensive line holding when Fields was running for his life back there???? But Tre was holding a lot, but most DBs do nowadays. Prefer he just stays aggressive and we take our lumps; especially when he is in man. Allen took dumb pills this morning... he NEEDS to play smarter. Nice run by Cook.

Agree. The way they are playing us, dropping guys into shell coverage, that area right around the sticks should be open till they do something different.

Alright Motor!!! Good for you man. An unselfish player you like to see rewarded. And running in the red zone works the way teams are playing Allen.

Don't want to jinx him, but the kid is looking better each week. Just need Allen to see him on those dumps and the kid will find the sticks.

So Allen is off. That just convinces me you run the ball more. The Bears run defense is not very effective either. Why piss into the wind?

Would like to see more runs in the red zone till Chicago can prove they can stop them.

Bassomatic is broke. Has to look at those flags at the top and adjust more. We should be 2 scores up, and once again I am more comfortable with our run game than airing it out. So many positive run yards, even against the stacked box.

I think that teams are purposefully kicking short to get the bounces - noticing how we have struggled fielding those. Perhaps our ST coach needs to put two guys back one deep one a bit shallower. Perhaps if we field some short ones and get good field position that stops.

We have stuffed our share of 4th down plays. Nice... think that was Phillips that got the paw up....

Not to be negative as we have some folk that struggle with execution critique, but special teams needs to up their game. And defense may want to consider doing something different for their run defense. Hamlin drawing passes like a magnet

That XP looked like it was setup on a weird hash mark and angle. Maybe just the camera.
