Ummm...this year I dont think we had a 3 score lead until tonight..But we lost to GB last yearWhat was the last game with a 3 score lead that the Bears lost because they took their foot off the gas?
You complained about the Cowboys scoring late, as if that mattered. Now you've changed it to the Bears not trying to score which is utterly ridiculous, as they scored after the 'Boys cut the lead once, were stopped only due to dropped pass - a PASS - on another drive, and drove the ball well and picked up a first down with a pass on another. Are you pretending they just ran it into the line three times and punted ? Because that simply DID NOT HAPPEN in this game.Maybe watch some Patriots football..If they are up, BB is trying to score well into the 4th quarter..He doesnt take his foot off the gas
Try not to take it literally. Think of it as we in a community all with a common purpose of wanting “our” team to win. After all , they wouldn’t be a team without “us”.
Last 10 points were unnecessary... The only thing it accomplished was to allow Dallas to score...if the Bears had played like they did earlier, Dallas probably doesnt scoreYou complained about the Cowboys scoring late, as if that mattered.

So you changed the topic, and were completely off base then as well!!
Gamblers need to worry about the final point spread. Head coaches don't. You don't gamble giving up quick scores because you're hell bent on winning by two scores instead of one. You make the opponent use all the available time to score, which is exactly what the Bars did.
The game was a W. If they win by 10 it counts as one W.
If the "soft" defense is so good why not use it the whole game. The standard D gave up (7) pts for 3 quarters. The soft defense (17) in the last quarter. With no pressure a QB has all day for a receiver to sit in a zone. And they always do. Marching right down the field. Maybe you force your safeties to not jump routes exposing the long gainer but no reason not to bring pressure and force the O to do what they couldn't do all game. Just because it's what they've always done does not mean it was right. The sure way to stop them from running up points is to score your own. Notice Nagy didn't run 3 times and punt he still threw striving for 1st downs. Because 1st downs keeps the other teams O on the bench.You simply don't understand football.
Let me guess, the Bears should have been blitzing? Gambling?
Up three scores the thing the D needs to make sure of is to not give big plays or quick scores. Make the opponent use clock, and three scores become unattainable.
That is exactly what the Bears' D did.

Better to make OUR team use up the clock with holding Dallas to 3 and outs like we did earlierWe lost that game because the offense couldn't get first downs in the second half. Tonight they played it perfectly. 3 scores up in the fourth qtr you make the other team use up the clock. Yes it takes away from the meatball gratification of an ass kicking, but it ensures a win.

Don't mess with his narrative. He has made up his mind that something was wrong with this win. Buck and Aikman are discussing how good the Bears looked and Troy said, of the Cowboys, "I don't know how you come back from this.", because they watched the game with no emotion or preconceived bias.What was the last game with a 3 score lead that the Bears lost because they took their foot off the gas?

But that won't stop Bud. He invoked the name of Belichik for no apparent reason, and thinks that made his point.
It is apparent you would prefer the Bears to win one game by four scores and lose another than to win both playing smart as they did tonight.Last 10 points were unnecessary...

Its apparent you can't read or understand simple English...But you keep on truckin'It is apparent you would prefer the Bears to win one game by four scores and lose another than to win both playing smart as they did tonight.
That makes no sense, and fortunately, the head coach doesn't share your view.
I absolutely do!You sound like you need a box of tissues
At least you admit that you're cryingI absolutely do!
I am crying laughing at how childish your posts are.
"Waaahhhh.....Why didn't we risk losing in an effort to win by 20?"
Your "logic" is the stuff Ripley's publishes.
Do your homework and get to bed. You don't want to miss the bus in the morning. (Is it the short one?)At least you admit that you're crying
