That was just bad Williams.

Is someone calling the Bears on the sidelines and asking to speak to Amanda Hugginkiss? 🤣🤣

I'm saying it wasn't their QB, the protection the team typically shows rises to a much higher level than any other player.

I mean it's hard to keep your job as a head coach when you are literally bad at everything including when to challenge. Gotta be able to hang your hat on something.

He wasn't their QB, it's a little different

Have you ever kicked a football before at all, let alone in a game in live conditions? If not you should probably defer to the person who did it for 3 years. Just saying.

Could you imagine what would have happened to the player if they hit Josh Allen like that by our bench? The entire team might have thrown a punch at him. What an embarrassing answer from the Bears. Allowing your QB to get punked like that and doing nothing to stand up for him.

Man, I don't care if that hit was in bounds, I damn sure am not allowing a player to hit my rookie QB like that right in front of the bench and nothing happens. Someone needed to take one for the team and do something to protect their QB. Embarrassed for the Bears.

Wow...welcome to the NFL Caleb Williams...guess the refs must not be a fan of him painting his nails.

Yeah, but then he had games like he had against Green Bay where he got sacked 7 times and was 16-33 for 145 yards, 2 INTs and a fumble lost and they got blanked 22-0 and looked clueless.

Looks similar to Allen as a rookie in terms of throwing the ball and awareness etc.

Yeah it's tough on wet fields...you have to shorten your stride with your plant foot to make sure it stays underneath you but you also have to make sure it's long enough so you can generate enough power on longer kicks. It's a tough balance to strike, especially when you aren't getting much practice with it...it's not a normal thing that happens a lot. Shorter FGs are non-issue because you don't need much of a stride since you can almost just leg the ball thru from a standing position...kicks over 40 can't do that tho.

And yet they are still in a 6 point game closing in on midway thru the 3rd quarter with the Texans...

No likely not, but those type of players have a knack for rising up at big times even when their play during the rest of the game might be fading as they age. He has looked pretty good so far this year. Just need him to stay healthy and not overuse him during the regular season.

Cant throw it much better than that... Dell might still be running if he caught that

I mean, we have Von who has been that in his career...he hasn't been healthy yet for us when we need him tho.

WTF? Did that chain crew guy just fall down by himself? Why do they constantly hire old dudes for these jobs? Are they trying to have someone die in one of these games?

The difference in many of those games? Chris Jones saving the game on D for them

His plant foot slipped on a wet field where players were slipping all night. Not really going to hold that against him. I kicked on wet fields before and it's hard to find the right balance between making sure you stride far enough to generate enough power versus keeping your foot close enough so it doesn't slip. If he kicked that ball on a normal field I'd be with you. Slipping on a wet field? Nah, that can happen to any kicker in the league. As soon as he hit that ball I assumed his plant foot slipped and then I saw a replay where I could confirm it. He has looked very solid so far other than that idiotic kick out of bounds against the Cards.

That's because they don't get to 4th down very often because Allen converts 3rd downs at a rate never seen before in the history of the NFL. They also have punted the fewest times in the NFL over the last 4 years. Not understanding context of statistics leads to the drawing of faulty conclusions using them.

More of a factor that the Ravens AGAIN blew a 7+ point 4th quarter lead for the 11th time in the last 5 seasons, the most in the NFL... I got Breece Hall in 3 of my 4 fantasy leagues Houston needs to actually do it in the playoffs first before I say they are "right there".

Yeah pretty much...

We had issues running against them too...they bottled up our run game and got us in 2nd/3rd and long a lot ..which doesn't usually matter with Allen since he converts more 3rd downs than anyone in NFL history but still...shorter ones are always easier.

Yeah that's a little weird.Even in October the average high is 82, November 73 and December 66. You'd think those 3 months would be perfect for some to be open.

They are good but struggled mightily against some defenses last year...the Jets made Stroud look terrible. I would suspect McD has something up his sleeve for Stroud.
