OT: Bears & NFL Talk 102

[TLEH]

Same exact 2 point play that did not work last time. Same exact miss.

 

[Pez68]

This kid is a stud. The haters need to just shut the f*** up already. With a competent coaching staff Bears are probably 7-3 or 8-2.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Other than the sack he gave up, Braxton Jones has been really good today.

Correct was just a lazy set by him

 

[Scottkmlps]

If there is anyone left that still doubts this kid, you don't know football.

 

[GIADF]

I don’t understand at all how according to analytics going for that is the right call.


I’d kick that every single time.

 

[Romang67]

Opposite. Kmet went to the flat, Williams threw back pylon. This time Allen went back pylon, Williams threw flat.

Yeah it makes zero sense. Now you HAVE to convert two just for a tie.

 

[TLEH]

Opposite. Kmet went to the flat, Williams threw back pylon. This time Allen went back pylon, Williams threw flat.

Well I should say, same exact route combination, different personnel. Yeah. Kmet did it last time.

Also I thought he threw flat both times?

 

[GIADF]

Yeah it makes zero sense. Now you HAVE to convert two just for a tie.

If anything kick it now and go for two and the win if you get the chance down the road. That I can get behind.

Flus logic.

It basically comes down to knowing ahead of time what you need, and upping the percentages of a win as opposed to going to OT. If you get it, you can tie the game with 2 field goals, and another TD wins the game (assuming the extra point doesn't get blocked, which is a given for 31 teams in the league).

If you don't get it, you need a TD plus another 2 point conversion, which has around a 50% chance of succeeding.

No, last week he threw the back pylon ball.

 

[southsideIrish]

Moose you don't "have an opportunity" to go for 2 for the tie - you HAVE to get the 2 point conversion for the tie.

Another awful Eberflus decision.

 

[Pez68]

That wasn't even a bad throw. Allen is just slow. Odunze probably gets to that ball.

They’re not kicking two FGs in the next 7 minutes though. Odds of that happening are basically zero.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Darnold injured

 

[Romang67]

Ah. That sucks to see.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Surprised there wasn’t a penalty on dexter for touching a Vikings player

 

[Pez68]

Darnold pulled something there. Was wincing as he landed.

 

[southsideIrish]

He's fine - good lord today's players.....barely got touched.

And of course the backup who's thrown one pass all year converts a long 3rd.

 

[GIADF]

Jayden Daniels and the Commies down 20-9 at home vs Dallas.

Daniels is 13/24 for 94 yards with an INT.

 

[Romang67]

They’re not kicking two FGs in the next 7 minutes though. Odds of that happening are basically zero.

The winning play instead of just tying the game is still on the table in that case.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

f***ing D gives up a 1st down on 3rd and 13 to backup QB

 

[TLEH]

That’s where that soft zone kills you.

 

[Pez68]

How the f*** do you give that up?
