Khalil Mack is pretty much the reason this team got the win. His presence is such a game changer it's ridiculous.

Mack with 5 tackles, 2 sacks, 3 QB hurries, and a forced fumble.

Thank you for the gift, Jon Gruden.

Defense closed the game with forcing four straight turnovers. Give them the game ball

If Mitch doesn't get better by the end of this season, Bears should try and get Tyrod Taylor in the offseason if he's a free agent.

The future of the team seems rather limited in upside if the coach and QB are mediocre. Mack can't do it all.

Miller injury is disturbing. Separated shoulder. Redshirted in college for shoulder injury. I believe he had flags as far as reinjury risk overall as a player

FO and scout surveys b4 season ranked Mitch as one of the worst starting QBs. So far, he's not disabused anybody of that notion.

It's very frustrating that we traded up for Mitch who is playing poorly while mahomes is Jesus. But at least we're top of the division

Every team so far has been blitzing Mitch like crazy and he hasnt learned how to beat the blitz... the game is too fast for him. He needs to sit, fix his mechanics and learn. Mitch is making tne same mistake every week.

We're above .500 for the fist time in 4 years. We're in first place. Mitch is having growing pains, let's enjoy the fact that our defense is FREAKING INSANE and they're carrying the offense right now. The offense has enough talent from every perspective to figure it out.

The defense cant carry us all season! This isn't going to work against the better teams. If Mitch was getting better each game then i would agree but he is going backwards...thats a problem

The defense, running game and special teams can.

Letting our running game dominate and taking a bit of responsibility off of Mitch's shoulders won't hurt him IMO. This team can be special, let Jordan Howard get us there.

Mitch is making plays. He's having bad moments but he's making some serious plays out there. There are long, sustained drives out there. In the red zone, there's some serious issues but he's not making Cutler throws out there repeatedly (last week was the only one).

The INT this week and the second one last week are fine. Those are tipped balls that were great plays by the defense.

The entire offense looks off. Jordan Howard isn't producing to the level we'd expect from Jordan Howard. I'm more than happy to watch them continue to win and adjust to this new offense together. Nagy has repeatedly said that it's going to take a while, and it's taking a while.

That Mahomes clip is insane but whats funny he will come back down to earth the issue is he has shown the ability to punish defenses that Mitch just has not shown the ability to to do . We got rid of Fox because Mitch was gunslinger who needed an offensive mind to be the gunslinger everyone assumed he was and now its just let him manage the game :lol:
