I remember seeing a Bills fan I know post something like "Josh Allen? Are you fucking kidding me???" On social media.

I followed up by saying "Hey, I thought the same thing about Trubisky last year, but that looks great so far. Keep your head up!"

Oh how foolish I was... As a Bears fan I should've known

You'd think I'd be excited for our first divisional win in over two years but I am sufficiently whelmed.

Why pick that?? Lol. Oh well. Looks good for the stat sheet. Not like we're gonna score anyway

This game reminds me of every Bears game I watched growing up.

Low scoring, great defense, turnovers, offense doing nothing, stupid penalties backing us up, constant offensive three-and-outs, horrid offensive play calling, dropped pick 6s... Almost makes me feel nostalgic.

I fucking hate it. I want to see a team that can actually score.

"The place where WRs go to die."

It hurts every time I hear it, but Mushin Mohammad wasn't wrong...

Why worry about never beating Michigan when he can come to the Bears and never beat another team from Michigan, Minnesota or Wisconsin again! At least he'll be making millions doing it.

Yeah that's the same for me. We had friends in from out of town who were all Bears fans. Our parents went to the game together and the oldest daughter babysit us.

I don't think I really ever watched a Bears game up to that point since the 90s Bears were anemic and 2001 was the first year they were actually good. Also we had the dominant Bulls to watch and I was only 9 in 2001 so don't remember a whole lot before that.

But they were all laughing at us because the Browns were killing us. Then we won it in like 2 minutes of game time to end it. One of the kids was an asshole and gave me an atomic wedgie because my brother and I turned the tables and started ripping on them.

Good times. It's the reason I started to love the Bears and football.

Tannehill was bad at Miami. Decent with the Titans

I'm just so fucking sick of all of our offensive play callers constantly calling screens and 8-10 yard curls. Just so bland and allows for minimal yards after the catch unless someone on the defense really fucks up.

That Bengals game was won when Burrow threw three INTs on three consecutive passes.

IIRC one went for a pick 6, one put us in the redzone immediately, and one was still on their side of the field. I think we kicked a FG with the redzone one and punted the other. And they still almost came back and beat us.

Braindead situational awareness. Sums up the franchise perfectly.
