Friday would be the deciding day. We'll see who is starting then. Its nice to see Coward get a chance. Lets hope he is better than preseason.

Coward held up well against the Vikings a few weeks ago.

Yes - I like that they promoted Coward.  As for his preseason performance he was playing RT - totally different position.

I'm thinking Bars gets promoted to the 53 man after Hicks returns - right now Bears only have 2 reserve offensive lineman in Larsen and Lucas.

8. The controversial calls that benefited the Packers in their 23-22 victory over the Lions on Monday night at Lambeau Field reminded me of the time the Bears played the Packers at Lambeau and an official exchanged hand-slaps with Aaron Rodgers in the tunnel as the Packers prepared to enter the field prior to the game. And it wasn’t a “play a good game” handshake, but more of an enthusiastic hand slap that seemed inappropriate between an official and a player.

That’s not necessarily an indictment of the officials. I don’t think they consciously aid Rodgers or the Packers. But there is little doubt that officials — just like opponents and opposing coaches fans, coaches and media — have a Jordan-like respect for Rodgers, which he has earned. Human nature seems to do the rest.


I think its more than that.

I thought we are 3-2?

10. Bear-ometer: 8-8 — vs. Saints (W); vs. Chargers (W); at Eagles (L); vs. Lions (W); at Rams (L); vs. Giants (W); at Lions (L); vs. Cowboys (W); at Packers (L); vs. Chiefs (L); at Vikings (L).

If so this puts us at 7-9 not 8-8. UGH!

I like Coward's size for OG. 6'6/320 is very adequate size.

3-2 with 11 games left.   In those 11 he predicts Bears going 5-6.  That's 8-8.

At 6-6 Coward has tackle size, guards are typically a little shorter.  But whatever it takes.

Yep, this game is extremely important. Gabriel will be back and he opens up a lot, but lose this game and pretty much back up truck. Unfortunately I am guessing Sean Payton out coaches him much like has happened recently.

We all thought Nagy was this great offensive guru. Team have figured us out.

We are 30th in rushing. We have no run game. I knew this would happen when the let Howard go and said Montgomery would replace him. We have less than 1/3 rushing yardage as Baltimore (- 1 game)

30th in scoring.

30th in passing....we less than 1/2 the passing yards the Chief have (- 1 game)

Nagy has not "opened up" the offense for about 10 games (defense scored a few TDs).

The Nagy honey moon could be over.

Everyone is doubting the Bears right now after the Oakland game.  Unknowns include Trubisky returning from his injury (the performance against the Redskins has no bearing) and whether the defense can rebound with the loss of Akiem Hicks.

Saints are a very good team, but I'm hoping the Bears offense wakes up with Gabriel back, Montgomery gets untracked and hopefully Burton returns to form (the TE position is killing us).

We'll see but no defense is playing better than the Saints

I think that was the sentiment heading into the game with the Vikings.  I believe the whole social media world is bubbling because Mitch through the bad pick against the Redskins, followed by the sack, fumble, injury, no fumble against the Raiders.  any good will generated in the 2nd quarter against the Redskins was immediately rinsed with vinegar and epsom salt.

I hope Trubiksy plays and ends the drama...
