Well, that’s just fucking great. First Kyle Fuller and now, Kevin White is out for the season with a broken leg. Are we keeping track? This is just another name on the long lists of first-round busts that the Bears have had throughout the last two decades.

I get it. It’s a freak injury. White was playing well the last two games. I was excited to see him play. But, this is just enough. Only one player that I can think of that has been an actual success and that’s Kyle Long and he’s going to need surgery soon for his torn labrum.

It’s the new NFL with all of these injuries all over the place. But is this something the Bears do more than other teams by drafting busts nearly every year in the first round? This is getting annoying.

Can the Chicago Bears please, find a front office that can be competent and find players that can contribute for the next decade? Is it that fucking hard? Why do teams draft franchise players after the Bears in various rounds? Why do the Bears continuously pass on guys that are supposed to go before them?

If someone can answer all of this, please let me know.

*Before I get to the recap, I want to send out a thanks to Carl and Dan from Fire Ron Turner for providing me with some delicious food in the South Lot and a fun time overall. Our friend Carl left for a new job in Portland and flew back to Chicago for this game. Those are two of the really good guys and go visit their website.*

Today, it was a complete team effort. This isn’t me being a pessimist, but we all know that there is usually one game a year where the Bears actually play four full quarters of quality football. Today was that was game of the year.

Connor Barf: For the love of God, will this guy just go away? The purpose of cutting Robbie Gould was to find someone BETTER than him. Connor Barf can go eat a bag of dicks. He completely pissed all over a drive in the first half by missing a field goal with virtually, no wind blowing at all. It was so bad, people around me were chanting, “Robbie. Robbie”. You know the kicker sucks when fans are chanting for the shitty kicker before him to return.

Brian Hoyer: Hey, I give credit where credit is due. One fan next to me told me he said the same shit about Hoyer in the preseason as I did. Two games in a row, he’s been average to above average. He’s spread the ball around. He doesn’t hold onto the ball too long and he made sure the offense was balanced. This is what a quarterback is supposed to do. He had over 300 yards passing and was very accurate in his passes. I was shocked, but happy. The line protected him, too. If I am the idiot head coach, I stay with Hoyer until he plays like shit. The season is already lost, so keep going with this guy to see what he can do in the long run.

Jordan Howard: The rookie seems to be doing just fine starting in place of Jeremy Langford. He had 111 rushing yards on 23 carries. In addition, 3 catches on 21 yards. He was a big part of the game. If it’s not broke, don’t fix it. Keep this guy starting with Joique Bell backing him up.

Eddie Royal: There was one amazing pass from Hoyer right to Royal for a big first down, I believe, in the second half. Eddie Royal was another major contributor to this win with 111 yards. Kevin White also had a pretty good game, but ended up getting hurt. Let’s pray it’s nothing serious.

Defense: If someone can tell me the last time a Bears defense didn’t give up a touchdown in a game, please let me know. I can be certain that it’s been quite a few years. The Bears stuffed the Lions at the goal line in the 3rd quarter that resulted in a field goal instead. Of course, the Lions receivers ran wrong routes that resulted in two interceptions at crucial times helped tremendously. But it’s still a big game for them. Those interceptions were courtesy of second-year guy Jacoby Glenn and rookie Deiondre’ Hall.

Special teams: See Connor Barf; Also, fuck the special teams on that punt return touchdown at the two-minute warning in the 4th. The Bears didn’t give up a touchdown until that. Thankfully, the Lions still sucked on the onside-kick. That’s the only blemish on this day.

The Bears take their 1-3 record three hours south to face the Colts next Sunday.

I am done with this shit. It’s not even funny how this season has started. The Bears look like a high school team going up against the #1 ranked college team in the country.

I already was going to go with this recap before the Cowboys scored the last touchdown. This is fucking atrocious. The Bears went three and out on their two drives while the Cowboys were a shitty non-call away from being up 21-0.

FUCK THIS ENTIRE CHICAGO BEARS FRANCHISE. FUCK THEM ALL.

I am sure I will forget some things. If I do, feel free to add it in the comments section.

First, I present this:

2011- Cutler broken thumb against Chargers – Out for season

2015 – Cutler hurts hamstring against Cardinals

2016 – Cutler sprains thumb against Eagles – Out for a while

I was at all three of these games. This is fucked up. I still will argue that no one else is better out there. At the same time, I just feel like it’s time to let go. This isn’t working. Former general manager Jerry Angelo gets a lot of crap and rightfully so for his years of futility. The trade with Cutler in 2009 was one of his best ones. If it happened again, I’d be just as excited as I was then for it. It wasn’t just all of these injuries that has pissed me off. The fact that most of the crap that happens on the field is from his receivers not running proper routes or linemen not protecting him.

Fact: Jay Cutler has been knocked on his ass more than any quarterback since he came to Chicago. That is a FACT. I don’t have the exact stats in front of me (Cue Yeti), but when the “experts” presented those stats last night and today, that’s all I need.

You cannot expect him to succeed when the idiots on his team aren’t protecting him or running the proper routes. Does he do some of this dumb shit on his own? Yes. But, come on. Him not getting any support isn’t helping.

Next up: Injuries. Lamarr Houston has another torn ACL. Surprisingly, it wasn’t from him sacking a backup quarterback with his team down 137 and deciding to do a dance afterwards. He actually did it trying to help his team win a game. Danny Trevathan is out for a while as well with a thumb sprain. If I had to list everyone else that was injured last night, I will be typing their names out for the next hour. I’ll save it.

Connor Barth: Fuck this guy to the ninth degree. And why blame him? Let’s blame Ryan Pace and John Fox. And for the record, I don’t want Robbie Gould back. That was the absolute right move. Now, when the team doesn’t replace him with someone better (that is the point, right?), then I have a problem with it. Fuck this organization.

Speaking of organization, this is all on Virginia and George McCaskey. They are the ones that are hiring idiots like Angelo, Emery and Pace. They are the ones that are allowing those general managers to hire idiot head coaches like Lovie, Trestman and Fox. They are the ones who let the general managers and coaches sign and draft shitty players who have no business being in the NFL (Brian Hoyer). This is the fucking problem and everyone knows it. It’s one step forward, two steps back.

Do you all see a pattern here? Yes, it’s being repeated. It’s been that way since the Bears fired Ditka. And no, I am not a meatball. But the fact that they have had a revolving door of general managers, coaches and players is fucking PATHETIC. Ryan Pace has no idea what the fuck he is doing with his team. There is no fucking plan. You think this 0-2 start is bad? I must say, it will only get worse.

It sucks. We have fans all over the country and even the world. Bears fans are everywhere. Every road game, tons of Bears fans travel or live in the cities of where they’re playing. This coming Sunday, the Bears are playing on the National stage again against the Cowboys in Dallas. I am sure there will be a ton of fans from Chicago there and ones who live in Dallas. You can tell how loyal we all are. I know a bunch of you guys reading all live in different parts of the country/world and have posted on here saying so. It just fucking sucks that we have no prayers for this franchise. They have embarrassed us. Every team in the NFL has a better chance to win the Super Bowl right now than the Bears do.

I am ashamed. I am pissed off. And I am sure it’s safe to say all of you are pissed off as well. This team doesn’t have any sense of where they want to go and when they want to do it. Yet, they want to continue raising ticket prices? For the love of God, why? How about, win a fucking Super Bowl first? My parking, that was once $15-$25 for all of these years was all of a sudden, $35 last night at McCormick Place. Even those fucking turds are getting in on all of this. I’d take a bus, but the amount of time to get out of Soldier Field is so damn time consuming, it wouldn’t be worth saving $20. But, I digress.

In closing, fuck this entire franchise. It is a collective effort to being the laughingstock of the NFL. I am sure Virginia, George and Ted are happy money is being deposited in their bank accounts by the second. I am sure Pace is going to continue to tell the media that everything is fine and they are playing the process out. I am sure Fox is telling everyone his team will “fix this problem” as soon as they can in time for the next game.

This all sounds familiar from previous regimes. And with that, I will repeat what I said years ago with one of the other regimes (it’s so bad, I forgot which one): Flush the toilet.

I’ve only glanced at this for now, but I’m thinking that some of you will have an interesting response…(?)

What a waste of time. I mean, the Bears start off well. Porter gets an interception and the Bears march down the field with ease. The Bears get the ball back after the Texans punt. A 4th and inches is up and Whitehair or Cutler fuck up the snap. How fucking difficult is this shit? The wheels completely fell off in the second half.

John Fox – Fuck this guy. Today, he channeled his inner-Lovie by challenging an obvious catch in the 4th quarter. That timeout was meaningless at the end of this game, but still. When they are supposed to run the ball, they pass. Shitty play-calling and bad game management. Sound familiar? If your team is the Bears, yes.

Vic Fangio – Oh, this defensive genius! Oh, he looked like one in the first quarter. The rest of the game? Not so much. Sure, the offensive couldn’t do shit and maybe, it tired out the defense. But, Osweiler was doing his thing for the last three quarters.

Jay Cutler – There isn’t anybody better out there. The Bears are stuck with him. He was sacked five fucking times. That’s fucking bullshit. I’ll give credit to the Texans. That defense is good, but the fact that the Bears can’t find some kind of stability on this line pisses me off. Alshon Jeffery dropped a first down pass, but other than that, he did his job. And what’s with receivers always running the wrong routes when Cutler is the quarterback? It’s been happening for years.

It’s going to be a long season. Next week, the Eagles are in town on Monday Night Football. I want a refund for my shitty seat in the North end zone. Thanks, Ted Phillips.

I’ll let you all fill in your thoughts.

Win or lose, there will be a recap of the game after.
