Obviously the biggest play for the Bears was the missed field goal, but the catch and "fumble" by Miller was huge too.

But what many fail to mention is that the Bears scored one touchdown against the NFL's 23rd ranked defense.  The Bears offense will be on the spot this year to take a big step.   Trubisky will be the main key to the Bears' success - as they say it's all about the QB.

Or Nagy's fear of being aggressive on offense

Bearhit - I couldn't agree more.  I hope the replaying of the game for the team is burning as huge a flame under Nagy and the offensive coaches, as it does the players.  Nagy played it to close to the vest, hoping the defense would make the game winning play, and lost that gammble. 

Why can you not post the proper spelling of the word gamnble?  Lol

Because apparently that activity is offensive to some so the word is in the filter.

Griz

I have the Philly game recorded but haven't re-watched it.  I did a quick review of the stats.  Nagy called 43 pass plays and 18 runs.  And 3 of those runs were by Trubisky.   Also, Burton was out and I think that helped the Eagles focus on Cohen and hold him to a total of 27 yards on 3 catches and 1 rush.

I remember Avonte Maddox was playing really tight coverage and almost came away with a pick in the first half.  Might have spooked Nagy a bit early on but Nagy used Maddox' aggressiveness against him in the 2nd half when Robinson had some huge catches.

As for the play calling, maybe Nagy called some more aggressive passes that weren't open or ones that Trubisky didn't choose to attempt.  Or you may be correct in that Nagy just didn't feel comfortable in opening up the offense with Trubisky until he was forced to later in the game.

With a one point loss you can find so many plays that might have turned things around.  How about Amos' late hit out of bounds on Philly's TD drive? 

I'm sure the Bears will be looking forward to the rematch this season in Philadelphia on November 3rd.

Or the Trubisky overthrow on the play before the kick?  He puts a little more air under it, and Miller runs under it for a score.  And the Trubisky statue is being dedicated...  ;D

I hurt too much after watching it, that I didn't want to watch it.  But I am ready now.  Nagy called a lot of sideline plays (as i recall), quick outs, etc.  Eagles were playing press coverage, and Nagy didn't adjust the game plan of "safe" passes until later in the game.  Like I said, I want to watch it again.  I noticed the NFL Network is replaying the playoff games, I am sure it will be on this week or next.  If anyone comes across it, please post it here.

Roquan Smith......we do not discuss him enough here. In my humble opinion he will be the best player on a defense with: Mack, Jackson, Fueller, Hicks, Floyd.

He will have a full camp.

And Floyd has added more strength and size...I believe he is up to 251 pounds from 235 - basically because is healthy this off season. New banner coming "Avoid Floyd"

I agree Smith doesn't get a lot of recognition.  Part of it could be that he plays a non-pass rushing role as an ILB in a 3-4 defense.  Which is a spot he shares with another pretty good player in Danny Trevathan.

I hate to rank players either on the same unit or from year's gone by.  But Smith is a pro-bowl caliber player no doubt.

As for Floyd, I think he was in the 235-245 range after college but he's probably been around 250 the last few years with the Bears.  Weight is over-rated with pass rushers.  Floyd just has to stay healthy, but if he has gotten stronger in the off season that should enhance his game.

Yes Smith and Mack having training camp will be a big difference.  Also Kyle Long not recovering from a surgery this offseason and fully working out instead should lower his chances of injury.

I look forward to seeing how Pagano will counter the Mack double and triple team blocking.  I think he'll be blitzing behind Mack and really giving OL a hard time.

You double and triple team Mack and someone like Hicks, Floyd, Lynch, Smith, Robertson-Harris, Bullard, Goldman will be open.

It might hard to even double Mack.
