NFL GDT: Week 17: Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Couldn't Miss the NFL This Year

[BKIslandersFan]

You’d have to be nuts to give smith $50 million

Agree.

 

[Fish on The Sand]

Bears exit the field the same way they entered... getting booed by their own fans.

 

[EpochLink]

This game was just a trainwreck.

My goodness

 

[BKIslandersFan]

And some serious o-line help.

Firing this clown in to the sun would be a good start.

 

[PeteWorrell]

There were Bears fans with paper bags over their heads. The joke is on them since they still paid to attend and they had to suffer through the game.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

Why the hell is the Chargers/Patriots one of the Saturday games? Good grief.

 

[PolishPrince21]

This game was so bad the Sabres out scored the Seahawks

 

[GKJ]

you can’t be surprised by this bears offense when they have a coach who has been promoted once already this season after being fired by the worst team in the league.

 

[EpochLink]

@snipes a wins a win but wooof, offense was lethargic from the word go.

My god

I was watching the world juniors with family. Was tracking the game on my phone and catching up on highlights now.

Low scoring game so I can imagine more of Geno’s questionable play was on display.

Take the win hopefully the Rams lose setting up a big final matchup. Seahawks aren’t going far even if they stumble into the playoffs somehow.

The problem is that this is a reoccurring problem with the Bears. Even more so that they have a QB that can mean something to them.

 

[DoyleG]

We can lay off Woolen for the rest of the night.

Seahawks can scope a wild card win but are out come divisional round.

 

[Terry Yake]

i can't even imagine how awful this game must have been

please just kill TNF already

 

[No Fun Shogun]

It's honestly surreal watching a game where a three-point deficit felt completely insurmountable, but the Bears found a way to harnass that energy.

Please give Chicago an expansion AFC team, NFL.

 

[John Price]

Completely forgot there was a game last night and probably better off. Heard it was a disaster

 

[GKJ]

That was the first 6-3 game since 2011.

And the Seahawks were in that one, too. They lost in Cleveland.

 

[Avs_19]

 

[PeteWorrell]

It was William's first interception in over 300 passes. I guess it's easier to not get intercepted when you do nothing offensively.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

God damn does it suck as a sports fan here in Chicago right now

Williams has been disappointment

People can blame his coaching, OL and WR's all they want but he leaves alot to be desired on field and has major issues with his game

I was told he had a great arm and I have yet to see that. Most of his deep throws are not even close and that includes many times when given plenty of of time

Also he doesn't step into his throws and when throwing off his backfoot his accuracy is even more piss poor. Cutler got away with that because he had a cannon, Williams so called "Amazing Arm" has been MIA

He has a lot to work on and there are corrections the new coaching staff will have to make for sure. The arm was on display on the TD pass to Rome that was called back and then again on the fourth down conversion to Moore towards the end of the game. His passing isn't consistent and there are a lot of misfires, as you alluded to, but also a lot of flashes of his talent.

Agree there are flashes but they have been rare IMO

Also on his deep balls barely anything has been good this year

 

[LT]

All of this was foreshadowed by his significant struggles against any decent college defense

The coaching turmoil and porous OL obviously don't help, but he hasn't looked the part either

You could tell both teams had played a scant four days prior, that is just not enough time between football games.
