    We got away with one today folks. This defense is terrible, and our offense and Tua choke in the clutch. We are not making the playoffs playing like this.

    Uh, no. Wrong. It wasn't even that deep FFS. Just stop it.

    If we would have lost today it would have been on the D which has been quite bad this year. Boyer needs to pick up his game if he’s able to do that and it was not all Flores last year.

    It was impressive up until the fourth quarter offensively. Defense was flat out awful. Boyer needs to be fired.

    Holy crap YES! Refs helped us on that non-DPI call.

    6-3 guys. I love how we keep finding new ways to win. This time, the offense always kept ahead of the Bears' offense.

    Aside from a few throws by Tua that was an elite offense with Tua + Hill + Waddle. Said this weeks ago but McDaniel really needs to act like a HC and fire Boyer now. We cannot go into the playoffs with this crazy defense.

    It would have been on the defence for sure but you can bet the media and certain posters here would have blamed Tua.

    Dude, we've literally seen Tua throw a farther and faster ball than that. It was a bad throw, but definitely not indicative of his arm strength.

    Tua had two really poor throws today. BOTH in critical situations but you cannot take away the rest of his day.

    Josh Allen dunked a very similar ball short when we beat them. It happens to the best.

    Without a doubt on that call. I still think the Waddle one was a good call but that one at the end was egregious. It won us the game, if I was a Bears fan I would be fuming.

    Jets just beat the Bills with their DB molesting the Bills WR on the their final

    Wow!

    I think we got away with one there. Why wasn’t that PI on 3rd and 10?

    Not that I’m complaining, of course.

    But what has happened to the Defence? A unit with basically the same personnel as last season is unrecognisable from that group.

    At least we cut down on the penalties.

    Now, please don’t go 0-3!

    That 4th down pass to Smythe was choke. He could have easily ran for the yard.

    Bills losing to the Jets means we still have a good chance to win the division by beating them next time we play them. Fantastic! Loving this season!! Go Dolphins!

    Well, his third down play today proves that point wrong IMO. However, he had two key throws today in the clutch that we really needed to seal the deal and he blew it both times with bad throws. I think that's what he's getting at there. It's hard to argue that if that's his point. Those were must have throws in clutch situations and he botched them both.

    I'll take the win but boy, was our defence ineffective. It looked as though they were playing flag football with a lot of those attempted arm tackles.

    We could have put the game away a lot earlier if McDaniels stopped trying to force runs and Tua doesn't make some terrible throws.

    Against a good team with a good defense we are not going to win many games like this, so forget about the playoffs.

    Perspective though... the Pack just lost to the Lions and Bills to the Jets. I'll take the ugly win any day.

    They aren't going to win because they can't be expected to score 30 every game. There is almost no room for error on offense.

    Kinda like how you’ve forgot about the first 3 quarters of offensive play?

    The offence and Tua will not be the cause of missing the playoffs.

    Agreed, but I think throwing was the right decision. Smythe had alot of green in front of him. Just a poor throw at the end of the day.

    This is so true. The offense is under immense pressure to score every time and nobody can be expected to do that. We were down so hard in time if possession as well in that first half. Hopefully Mike can figure out his critical situation playcalling as well. He was bad at the end of both halves.

    I think the game goes into OT if we don't get that non-DPI. Bears offense was stalling last 2 drives too. Would have been a very interesting OT given how both defenses were crap lol.

    Dude. No. Just stop. I don't have a narrative. I've repeatedly said that my only concern with Tua this point is long term durability. But I've not called to replace him.

    Also, there are several people saying what I'm saying, who are not "anti-Tua" as you guys seem to think I am.

    We should be able to point out areas of concern.

    What does it's depth have to do with anything. He wasn't even hardly out of his drop. His momentum was still basically going backwards. He could not plant to throw. That throw was a pure arm strength throw.

    You stop it.
