Is Jets rookie Sam Darnold perfect tonic for what ails Bears’ defense?

If Fangio doesn't press cover and blitz this game, he never will.

That is what I thought in the 2nd GB last year with Hundley playing. The Packers were on a short week and we were coming off a bye. Fangio did nothing to confuse Hundley and he ate them up.

Dont blitz. Bring pressure with 4 and drop 7 to get all the turnovers.

They will implement a short passing game scheme and walk up and down the field

No way. This is the one thing Fangio will take away.

I hope this is just like the TB game----this kid should be sacked 11 times and the Bears should roll here. I am skeptical of that previous hope but for your threads sake, a HELL YEAH---Bears ROLL over NYCJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think we will win the game, but the Jets have a better D than Tampa Bay

:dontsay:

Every team has a better defense than Tampa

I am not certain about that, but they are definitely in the conversation.

Without Mack we can’t get pressure rushing 4 though. Floyd is verified trash and Hicks is gassed by half time every week it seems

My confidence went from we will steam roll the dolphins to I hope we beat the Jets real quick. The life of a bears fan.

Jets are without Powell, 3 of their best d-backs, and have a rookie QB who's looked very pedestrian since his fairly good debut.

The Bears should win this game by multiple touchdowns.

Yet, the Bears probably should have also won the Miami game by multiple touchdowns.


Still, I won't lower my expectations for this team. They have the tools. They have the weapons. They have the scheme. They have the coaches. No excuses---I expect this team to be 5-3 in two weeks, with a chance to be 6-3 going into the Lions game at Soldier Field.


The Bears were winning by double-digits in each of their 3 losses this year. That they lost each of those is a goddamn travesty. I refuse to say, "Oh, well, that's O.K.---This year can be the transition year." Nah, this team is better than that---it's time to perform down the stretch like it.

But we don't have K.Hunt, Tyreek Hill or Travis Kelce
