How is it that other QBs are sometimes able to go hundreds of pass attempts without an INT when they have to deal with such things?

 

I know, i know. Nobody else throws interceptions

Football IQ.

 

"I think he's not running the right route, better check the other receivers..."

 

It was a timing route, he threw it before Marshall was supposed to curl. He never curled and shields was right there waiting for it. If Marshall curled, he would have shielded the defender, like the play is designed.

 

His pick across the middle to Tramon Williams was awful, no doubt. But the pick to Shields was on marshall

The curl route was covered the fly was wide open. If jay recognized this as marshall did it would have been a touchdown.

I was being facetious. I know that was on Marshall.

Whatever miscommunication happened between jay and marshall we will never hear, but Trestman clearly called out Marshalls f*** up post game.

Jay has warts, i get it. But some people will never get over the fact that he isnt Aaron Rodgers.

 

Newsflash, there is only one. There is worse options out there, and even though the bears settled for the cute fat chick for 3 years, its much better than settling for fat chick one night stands for 20 years

 

 

And I apologize for continuing that analogy.

Why exactly? With the defense as bad as it is, Jay is either going to take the Bears to the promise land or he isn't. It goes through him and the offense. And nothing in his time with the Bears has led me to believe he's THAT good.

Because these absolutes are just nonsense in sports, especially football, where plenty of worse teams than this one have gone on runs and won super bowls. Things can change so quickly in the NFL. It is impossible for anyone to make an absolute judgment like that after 5 games.

and then back tracked at the Monday press conference after talking to both players

 

I think i will trust his post game comments more than the damage control

Or 5 seasons.... oh wait, let's start the excuse train. 1) offensive line, 2) coaching, 3) defense, 4) receivers, 5) injuries, ....

Aaron Rodgers might be the most valuable player in the league both in the here and now and moving forward.

With the talent we have on offense this year, and with a defense that could become better as the season progresses, I think you're nuts to say they couldn't go on a run and win the whole thing. Likely? No. But some are offering absolutes...

 

Only a Sith deals in absolutes...

And of course, for that to happen, the #1 guy who has to step up his level of play is...

 

Well. You know.

Yeah, that guy is incredible.

 

I've been very slow to jump on the Wilson bandwagon, given the quality of his team's roster and how much less he has to throw than the other top QBs. But everytime I watch him play, I become more and more impressed with him. He's legit and he costs less than a million dollars each of the next two years.

I've been a believer since his coming out party against the Bears a few years ago.

I thought that was Kapernick?

Kaep did roast us...but I'm remembering back to the game in 2012 at Soldier Field in December...I think we lost 23-17 in OT after leading the entire game. That was the game where Wilson really showed just how good he could be.

Not many do. And for those that do, you will typically find that you are talking about a top 3 QB. Yes, QB's from time to time have various streaks but the guys that throw minimal picks are either top 3 or so in the league at the time and typically in similar systems with good protection, etc. Or in rare exceptions they are a game manager and have fewer attempts or some other variable.

Had Marshall stopped and ball thrown back to him, I don't think that play was covered.

I think Cutler just had his streak of a hundred something snapped in the game against GB?
