There also was no excuse to give up the drive that led to the final go-ahead TD for the Raiduhs. Think the D spent too much time reading their clippings and not enough study of Raider tendancies.....

Hate overseas games. Always have and always will. But both teams have to play so there is that. Look at the bright side. The offense finally scored 21 points ! Still mystified that other teams with far less talent seem to get that much each week........

And after that running into the kicker, on 4th and 1, you just knew Gruden wasnt going to punt, I saw that sneak coming a mile away.  That was a brutal couple of plays.

Of course - I thought it was gonna be 40-0 after the first-half domination

Tabor ST coach is average on his best days. Thought before the season began he was the weakest of the coordinators but now I've got to wonder wtf Hiestand is smoking. Oline regression is inexcuseable.....

Undisciplined teams lose games they should win. Simple.

I think this was a perfect storm game of jet-lag, mind-numbing errors (both coaches and players) and general hubris.

Bears got served a dish of humble pie. The real test is where they go from here (Vikings prevented their implosion this week. Can the Bears do that over the Bye ?)...

Sophmore slump for Nagy for sure. Still does not seem to use his personnel correctly (Cohen is NOT a premier back. WAKE THE **** UP NAGY and use your tools correctly).

He's a good tool (and you have others too). Put away the Coach of the Year trophy, get back to basic football. and USE THEM. Think of where this O would be without Robinson......

Again, you see teams with less talent on O scoring more than this underachieving group. Frustrating. But they are 3-2. The season is not over. But as usual they cannot make it easy on themselves.....

The whole world knew the fake was coming.

WHY EVEN RUSH THE PUNTER IN THE FIRST PLACE?!

You stopped them.  You are getting the ball back with 6:00 to play and the lead with field position.

Yes, set up the return.  But even if the Bears get the ball Nagy, with the 4 point lead, would have went ball control to try to kill the clock, and with the Bears running game they would be punting it right back to the Raiders.

On that fake punt you can even see the snapper angle the punt towards the up man. Just terrible. It's Gruden - he does that all the time.

If the Raiders TE isn’t a household name yet, he will be soon...

And where was our #2 draft choice Adam Shaheen?  Did I miss the injury report?  Or has our recent FA TE beat him out?

Other than an occassional 5 yard pass to Burton we are not getting anything from the TE position.
