Game 7- Bears host the Dolphins 

Post#1 » by BullHeaded » Thu Oct 16, 2014 3:29 pm

The road warriors are looking to give the Soldier Field crowd their first victory. And not that we're holding a grudge or anything, but we're also demanding a pound of flesh from the Dolphins for blemishing the record of the best football team in NFL history.

This game will be about discipline in my opinion. If we don't turn the ball over and if young players on defense stay assignment sound... that pound of flesh will be had. Miami is a good team... they beat the Pats and should have beat the Packers last week (another reason to be pissed at them)... but I'm feeling this.

And there you have it... a game thread!

Looks like we'll be close to full strength this week. Briggs and Conte were the only two players held out of practice. Bostic, Williams and Dixon were limited. Everyone else participated fully.

Also in this article, Trestman isn't ruling out Briggs or Conte. Mundy, Vereen and McCray rotated in at safety but it looks like Vereen would start if Conte sits out.

Big game for the Bears. This is pivotal. We go up or down from here.

I expect Bennett and Forte to have huge roles in the passing game today seeing how possibly the only weakness the Dolphins defense has is their LBs covering ability.

Yep.

We never get Forte going early. It's terrible.

Like I've said before, 50% of passes to Holmes are either intercepted or almost intercepted.

Funny thing is that the Bears needed two yards, and Holmes's defender was almost FIFTEEN YARDS off of him pre-snap. Packers would have thrown a quick screen there and gotten an easy 1st down. Bears are too stupid for that, though.

Run it on the that first drive at 3rd and 1 and this game is vastly different.

So how long is Trestman's contract?
