Bears games and expectations.

I'd like to know what people expect out of this game this weekend... who do you feel will be the stand out player, will any rookie's make themselves noticed?

I feel like David Gettis is the rookie that is ready to have a break out game and step up. He's slowly improved every game, he's getting open, making great catches, making the "should be" catches too.

Your opinions?

I expect a breakout game for the defense..maybe a defensive score. The bears oline is gaudy and collins might not have all the timing down needed. Offensively, obviously we expect Clausen to improve at least a little every week. I also expect the running game to continue to improve.

I'm hoping Armanti and Clowney break out. But I have two wildly different sets of "break out" for each of them.

For Armanti I hope he plays with confidence and doesn't look like a chicken with his head cut off. I'm looking for maybe one or two plays that justify the praise he gets for his explosiveness and athleticism. I've only seen him at camp and the during the preseason and I'm hoping he'll be somewhat comfortable with NFL speed by Sunday.

For Clowney I hope he can adjust to our offense and add some "veteran-ness" to our offense and use that incredible speed to add something to our WR corps.

Above all I want the team as a whole to add onto what I thought was a good foundation last week. We have shown that we're not absolutely horrible and now its time for everyone to put their Big Boy Pants and get that Dub.

Bradshaw put up 129 at 5.6 a carry with 1 TD and Jacobs (SUCKS BTW) had 62 at 10.3 a carry with 1 TD......I really think we can run better then those two. Big day in the running game and if Clausen can hit a few good passes this weekend......We may have a WIN!!!

I hope we can. Before that NYG game, the Bears gave up NOTHING on the ground. Like 30 yds a game or some crazy stat. Now it's like 77 yds a game. I think they'll retool and get their act together. This game is going to be on Jimmy.

Det did not run well against them, however they had two rushing TD's against the Bears.

Dallas was "Pass Happy" passing all game and for some reason passed for 51 times to 18 run plays.

Packers had 18 penalties that made them have to throw the enter game to get back into good "Down and Distance". (Plus it was the B. Jackson experiment.)

NYG was the first team that actually tried to run against the bears with 29 run plays to 30 pass plays.

You may be correct about their Run-D but it seems to me they have only had one team really test them this (early) season.

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
