***OFFICIAL*** IGT Preseason Week Two: Bears @ Giants (Monty Burns Edition)

[vabearsfan15]

I took no positives from the guys who played today, other than what I already knew we had in Wims. Nall played decent also. Duke shelly was in the right spots, but needs to be better at tackling. Other than that I can't think of anyone else that stood out...in a positive way. Plenty of meh and below meh guys out there..

Good job Nagy. Way to chase greatness. You're really creating a winning culture on this team.

I remember when the Bears sucked so bad they needed to win preseason games to generate some fan interest and sell some tickets. I also remember when the Bears were so good they didn't give a fuck about preseason games.

What I don't remember is a Bears coach keeping his starters out of the game this much. I complained about it last season, I wanted Mitch to get more reps, it worked out last season, so Nagy gets the benefit of the doubt this season.

Mizell sealed his fate as one of the first ones to be cut after tonight. He was a longshot from the get go but this performance made it an easy call.

I don't remember a play by Mizzell where you watch him and you think, holy crap we've got something here, I think he may have caught a nice TD last year but he can't do much as a RB.....at least Whyte has a little juice running the ball. I can't believe i'm saying this but we already have 2 elusive pass catching guys and Davis who's got some shake...why not keep Nall who can catch but is more of a power banger....I suppose they have to keep an eye on ST though, you've got marvin hall, whyte, mizzell seemingly trying to latch on via ST....who's going to fill the bellamy role? I think they want it to be Hall but after tonights spaz routine ......

NFL preseason kills MLB, there are no other sports options this time of year. Try again angry guy that is wrong about everything.

Clifton Duck Stood out. I like him. Hopefully he sticks.

All the ST guys you mentioned are horrible, especially Mizell. Too many chances for that guy. . Maybe Nick Kwiatkoski on ST if he gets his shit together. Bellamy role? Hopefully no one.

Chase Daniel is more statuesque than either of the Manning brothers. When he tries to run away from the defense I swear he shrinks to 4ft tall and loses a leg somehow... before he even takes off!

lol

That was obvious..a sleepy junk game with super vanilla plays. Wims and Nagy's Visible Anger kept me awake, this game makes it easier to get over cutting some players. Too bad Adam Glassheen didn't play...would of been even the easiest cut to make. Hell Adam looked like he fit right in this showcase of third stringers' shit game.
Fry is done, you just don't miss a kick after what happened last week with Pineiro's missed kick.
Maybe Fry wants some of that week long negative attention this week. Funny but true, the scales just tipped right back into Pineiro's hands.

Chase is a joke, he's lucky he had Wims to bail his ass out on every drive.

CCS complaining that the bum backup qb isn't very good instead of pounding the table for the bum backup qb to be named the starter must be a sign of the apocalypse.

please give this guy one of your names and run it up the chain of command for emogis.

It wasn't THAT bad. Here are positives:

Alex Bars is an NFL quality guard
Rashaad Coward bounced back
Ted Larsen is a pleasant surprise
Kerrith Whyte is an NFL RB
Josh Woods looked decent through 2 games, but it is incredibly difficult to evaluate ILBs cuz they are getting a lot of traffic that they wouldn't otherwise see with starters.
DHC is a very pleasant surprise.
RRH is real good.


My concern that isn't really being talked about...Kevin Tolliver, the supposed heir to Amukamara's spot, not much. That worries me.

This may have been mentioned but didn't see it on a quick browse. Our ST units all still suck. We badly lost field position on both sending and receiving. They may be backups but guess who mans special teams even when it counts. I hope I'm wrong but after last year, I need to see something positive from our ST coach.

 

[jaymesmith92]

You think any of this has to do with us playing them in the Regular Season. Giants literally have nothing to go on from this game. Granted I would have liked to have seen a better showing from us, but vanilla was the name of the game. I also think the reverse Nagy ran might have been a little set-up play for the regular season game against the Giants.

 

[Bearly]

Oh and Coward's elbow ding may be a real issue. Haven't much liked our Ts beyond the starters and that looked like a hyper extension. Lots of grades for that one. Lets hope it's mild.

 

[Aquineas]

I never thought I'd be the one to say this, but we could really use Josh Bellamy.

easy, killer. I didn't mean ratings. I meant coaches and how they use it.

i like all of those but really with a name like Clifton Duck does he really need a nickname?

Just FYI I think Vick Ashley on twitter is referring to him as Sir Ducksworth of Cliffington. Has a nice ring to it.

Does Vick have a Twitter handle?
