26CornerBlitz Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 What We Learned from Sunday's Week 9 Games Here's what we've learned so far from Sunday's Week 9 games, which included the Pittsburgh Steelers' victory over the Baltimore Ravens in an AFC North showdown. Chicago Bears 41, Buffalo Bills 9 1. The Bears smothering defense entered Buffalo with a decisive advantage against a lost-at-sea Billsoffense. Vic Fangio's unit played to the expectation, clobbering the bevy of underneath tosses and forcing four turnovers, including two first-half defensive touchdowns. Safety Eddie Jackson stripped Bills tight end Jason Croom and dashed for a 65-yard score. Linebacker Leonard Floyd later took a tipped pass to the house. The two scores were more than enough to blow the game open. Corner Kyle Fuller was arguably the most impressive defender on the day, including an interception and three passes defended. On the day, a dominant Bears D generated four takeaways, four three-and-outs, and gave up just nine measly points. The Bears again rested beastly pass rusher Khalil Mack, who is dealing with an ankle injury. It was a smart decision by Chicago. The Bears didn't need Mack this day. Despite not getting overwhelming pressure on Buffalo (zero first-half sacks; four on the day), Chicago has enough playmakers in the secondary to make an offense like Buffalo pay. Getting Mack healthy for the stretch run is the key as the Bears (5-3) continue to lead a hotly contested NFC North. 2. The Bills offense is a wheel-less wagon stuck in a sinking mud. Quarterback Nathan Peterman got the start. With the barren collection of offensive weapons, a porous offensive line and zero run-game, it matters not who starts under center. The turnover-maestro tossed three interceptions, including a pick-six. The first two INT's weren't completely Peterman's fault. The first was bobbled by newly added receiver Terrelle Pryor and popped into a defender's hands. Pryor did nothing to aid the Bills attack (2/17). On the pick-six, receiver Zay Jones was hit at the line of scrimmage as the ball arrived and bounded into the hands of linebacker Leonard Floyd who galloped for the score. Peterman shied away from difficult throws, opting to a smorgasbord of quick, short tosses that did little to keep offensive rhythm. With no deep threat, the Bears could squat on short routes, which led to the three interceptions. A garbage-time QB sneak for a score ended a streak of 39 possessions over 12 quarters without a touchdown for Buffalo. Futility knoweth thy name. As depressing as Peterman's play was the lack of ground game is as concerning for Buffalo. LeSean McCoy continues his putrid play behind a line that can't open holes. The running back generated 1.0 yards per carry 10 totes. McCoy's dancing style isn't conducive to positive plays in this offense. 3. Facing a very good Bills D, the Bears offense wasn't asked to do much and didn't need to with its own defense dominating. Chicago had just 190 total yards and 11 first downs on the day (conversely the Bills' sad offense netted 264 yards and 22 first downs). Jordan Howard scored two rushing touchdowns in the first half, and Anthony Miller has become a reliable target for Mitch Trubisky. The quarterback missed a few throws otherwise the Bears might have put up a 50-burger on the day. Despite not getting much on offense and earning 14 penalties for 129 yards, the important thing for Chicago is that they won a road game they were expected to dominate. Dominate the defense did. Now the schedule heats up for Matt Nagy. The Bears have three straight division tilts, facing the Lions, Vikings and Lions in the next three games. Down the road, matchups with the Rams, Packers and Vikings again loom in what should be a wild ride for the division-leading Bears. -- Kevin Patra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochesterRob Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Does anybody even remember who they were laughing at two years ago? Nope. And in a couple of years they most likely will be laughing at whatever bottom feeder is going then. Who cares what a few has been blowholes say?

Whomever would take over would still have an offensive line that can't run block. So Shady and Ivory would still be stuck; and a QB who can't throw consistently good passes to WRs who can't get separation consistently, when the offensive line wasn't giving up pressure everywhere. Daboll ain't the main issue-- talent is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagon Circler Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 (edited) 2 hours ago, Dan said: I don't know if its the players or Daboll, but this offense is so bad that we could replace that entire side of the ball with players from the stands and it wouldn't look any worse. They should seriously consider just forfeiting the remaining games rather than embarrassing themselves like this again. I have concluded that Daboll is crap. We don't do any of the things I see other teams do. Screens, anything imaginative. Any first down is hard. keep running Shady up the middle for -3 on first down.

Scott7975 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Last season we talked about getting the monkey off the back and making the playoffs. This season we are talking about getting the monkey off the back and scoring a TD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ngbills Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 In your lines of work: If your boss continues to put some awful person out there to run things what happens. People get pissed, quit or stop doing their jobs. That is the Bills. Players have quit on the team. How do you blame them when the McD and Co allow Peterman to continue to play. It is offensive to them and embarrassing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
