Dion Sims Jersey

[linchao]

Jacob generously offered to swap roles with me this week as I had to “work” yesterday https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Riley-Ridley-Jersey , so I’m taking over his post-game notes. I’m assuming since this is “notes,” I can jump straight to my isolated insights instead of giving an overall game reaction. I will provide two overall reactions.The NFL app from verizon is complete heartless unethical bottom-of-the-barrel soggy garbage. I avoided social media, the internet, and unneeded human interaction all day so I could watch the game fresh when I got home. This evil incarnate little trash-app gives me a pop-up notification telling me the final score. If anyone wants that pop up, I guarantee you they don’t want it as much as I didn’t want it. I need to switch cell providers.This game was not as discouraging as I thought it would be when I saw the Bears only scored 14 points.That’s my BiscuitMitch Trubisky saw a lot of pressure in the first half, and he continued to show off his ability to slip away and extend the play. This was most impressive with a long first down conversion rolling right and throwing to...Taquon Mizzell. Overall, Trubisky moved the ball better than expected in a 14 point offensive outing and his stat line shows an extremely efficient 86% completion percentage at 8.5 yards per attempt. Mitchel, noooooI’m going to hope that Trubisky saw the holding penalty and knew he could take a risk on his negated pick. Except the throw didn’t seem risky in that there wasn’t a clear upside. He just tossed it at a 49er. He was clearly rushed after escaping pressure and misread something. I want to see him stop making mistakes, and that’s unrealistic. He’s still inexperienced. I’ll forgive him for now.That’s our BiscuitThe Bears wasted no time rallying to their quarterback after a late-game late hit on their sliding quarterback. In retrospect, Marcell Harris hit Trubisky with his chest, and it looked like a stupid decision rather than a dirty one. But it looked bad in the moment and the Bears were ready to get unnecessarily violent for their young leader. Their hearts were definitely in the right place.Bears defense racking up the pre-sacksThey didn’t “technically” hit home often—Roquan Smith logged the solo official sack—but they scooped up 6 QB hits and innumerable hurries that forced Mullens into so dangerously slopped throwaways. I’m sure if Eddie Jackson was on the field, at least a couple of those would have sailed into his paws for at least one pick six.Deon Bush not quite filling Fast Eddie’s shoesI saw him get near the play a number of times, but he didn’t “make” the play often. Hopefully he’s just warming up. Hopefully Eddie is coming back soon.McMannis continues to churn the butterSherrick McMannis on the hand, has wasted no time impressing as he fills in at slot for injured Bryce Callahan. I love that he’s role is increasing at the ripe old age of 31 after looking like a career special-teamer. He’s certainly rewarding the Bears for giving him the opportunity.Joe Staley did his name proud todayThe 49ers tackle did a large part of helping keep Khalil Mack sackless today. Only Staley da Bear could have done better. Thank you Joe for not besmirching the Decatur Staleys or our beloved Bears mascot.I underestimated Jordan Howard’s role in this gameAnd am delighted to have been proven wrong. Love to see that Bear prouncing around getting work. Nagy still seems overly cautious of diminishing returns when Howard is producing well, and he seems to be pulled out of the game plan for too many plays in a row for my liking. Does Nagy not remember that I spent two seasons looking at him as the brightest light of hope in a depressing offense? Does he not know that watching Howard rumble through failed tackles is like a warm blanket for Bears fans?Can’t trick a simpleton gold-pannerSpeaking of taking Howard off the field. When you run a trick play hoping to draw the defenses attention by faking a QB run then pitching to Tarik Cohen David Montgomery Jersey , the defense has to notice Trubisky running. These 49ers clearly know how to avoid tricks by not paying attention to such distractions. When their plan is to run at Tarik Cohen no matter what, no trick play going to Tarik Cohen is going to work. 9 points for #9Parkey 0. Gould 9. I have nothing more to say about that.Allen Robinson is a wonderful WR1 not getting enough attentionThis offense spreads the ball to a number of terrific playmakers. Lost in the mix is that Robinson is living up to his billing as a complete elite wide receiver, delivering crisp routes and clutch catches every week. He won’t ever lead the league in yards on this team, but he’s a crucial cornerstone of this offense who deserves to be valued as such. Also, anyone see that diving catch? Gorgeous.Mizzell starting to show me why the Bears believe in himHe showed some shifty moves on a long return and then caught a deep sideline pass from Trubisky. He’s still growing, but maybe he can turn into the productive versatile Cohen-light the Bears want him to be.Remember Joel Iyebuniwe?The fourth-round pick hasn’t done a lot this season, but I guarantee you Ritchie James won’t forget him. Iggy absolutely destroyed little Richard on a kickoff return taking a perfect line and leveling the poor return-specialist without losing momentum. I have high hopes for this young man.Welcome back to offense Anthony Miller?I’m not 100% sure why Miller took an offensive break for the past few weeks—he only had one catch for only one touchdown over the past three games. He tripled that today with three catches (still only one touchdown) and one savagely graceful open-field run for great YAC.Hicks continues to paw his way into my heartHis two pawed balls in the first quarter were so bear-like, even the announcers couldn’t avoid referring to his hand as a paw. His third was the most impressive, leaving no chance of a salvaged play. He led the team in passes defensed today.The score wasn’t impressive, but the Bears were clearly the better team on the field today. San Francisco played hard made some good plays, and the Bears made some sloppy mistakes, and the game stayed close until the end. But the Bears stayed on the field being better than the other team and eventually that ended in a win.We’re going to see a more complete performance if the Bears want to win against the Vikings or in the playoffs, but this underwhelming victory doesn’t discourage me about their potential. LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace wouldn’t say if Cody Parkey will return for another season, and coach Matt Nagy called out the struggling kicker for appearing on the “Today” show last week.Pace was adamant Monday that the Bears need improvement in the kicking game Dion Sims Jersey , calling it a “position of emphasis for us.” When asked if Parkey will return for a second season, he said: “Those are things that need to play out as we go into it.”Parkey’s future is the biggest question surrounding the Bears after their breakthrough season.They settled one big issue when they hired Chuck Pagano on Friday after Vic Fangio left to take the Denver Broncos’ head coaching job. But Parkey’s status is shaky at best.The Bears went 12-4 to win the NFC North in their first year under Nagy after four straight last-place finishes and made the playoffs for the first time since 2010. It ended in a cruel way, with Parkey’s potential winning field goal hitting the left upright and crossbar in a 16-15 wild-card loss to Philadelphia at Soldier Field.On Friday, he appeared on the “Today” show. And that did not sit well with Nagy.He said Parkey didn’t tell him in his exit interview that he would be going on the show. Nagy didn’t remember exactly when he found out it would happen.“We always talk about a ‘we’ and not a ‘me’ thing, and we always talk as a team, we win as a team, we lose as a team,” Nagy said. “You know, I just, I didn’t necessarily think that that was too much of a ‘we’ thing.”Parkey’s struggles were one of the few sore spots for the Bears.The Bears signed him to a four-year contract hoping he could give them the consistency they have lacked since they cut Robbie Gould prior to the 2016 season.Instead, he made just 23of 30 field goals for the third-lowest conversion rate in the NFL. He was 42 of 45 on extra points.Six of his misses counting the playoffs hit uprights. He nailed them four times while missing two field goals and two extra points in a victory over Detroit at Soldier Field on Nov. 11. He also hit an upright on a missed PAT at Minnesota in the regular-season finale.Parkey didn’t start practicing at Soldier Field, where winds off Lake Michigan can wreak havoc, during the week until after the Detroit game. That’s something Gould and Kevin Butler, two of the most successful kickers in franchise history, used to do.Even if they keep Parkey for now https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Jim-Mcmahon-Jersey , Pace vowed to bring in competition.“However many (free agents) we signed last year, you’re never going to bat a thousand,” Pace said. “I know Cody wishes he had a better season. We wish he had a better season, too.”The Bears don’t expect to make major changes on defense. That group led by Khalil Mack and two other All-Pros in safety Eddie Jackson and cornerback Kyle Fuller ranked among the best in the NFL. And Pagano — like Fangio — has experience with 3-4 defenses.“We’ve done a lot of good things, but I’m sure Chuck is going to bring a lot of good things to add to the able as well,” Pace said.The Bears did not rule out trying to sign former Kansas City running back Kareem Hunt. The Chiefs released the 2017 rushing champion after video surfaced showing him knocking over and kicking a woman in a Cleveland hotel in February.“As we go into that, obviously there’s a lot of things off the field that he’s got to take care of,” Pace said. “Matt knows Kareem. I don’t know Kareem, but those things are all going to have to play out.”Nagy worked with Hunt in Kansas City and talked to him about a week ago.“The situation that happened is unfortunate for everybody, and he knows that,” Nagy said. “The only thing I cared about when I talked to him was literally his personal life, how he’s doing, and it was a good conversation.”Notes: Pace said the Bears plan to pick up their fifth-year option for the 2020 season on linebacker Leonard Floyd. … WR Anthony Miller will have shoulder surgery. … Pace said Mack will miss the Pro Bowl because of a sprained knee. … Nagy wasn’t sure if Ed Donatell will return as defensive backs coach. He interviewed for the defensive coordinator job and has an expiring contract.
