Da Bears defense has been impresive, offense, not as much. Williams reminds me of a younger more athletic Dak Prescott.

Who’s the jerk that had a high percentage chance to win because I had Justin Jefferson going tonight?

THIS GUY

After starting 10/10 in the 1Q, the Vikings have pretty much owned Williams who's throws have not been accurate - he needs to be more decisive in his running - he's pretty fast. The Bears defense, impressive for 3Qs also is wilting.

 

[kingdivac]

So much for Da Bears and Williams...... More cellar dwelling in store.

 

[kingdivac]

Williams should've been running alot more than he did in the game - he's got some wheels - alot like Fields

 

[kingsboi]

There's so much wrong with the kickoff that I don't even know where to begin.

I put the blame on Draft Kings, Fan Duel, Vegas, among others

Gambling is ridiculous.

Same old Bears

Some things may never change.

Yeah - Williams looks like a Fields clone out there - too many off-throws outside of dump-offs. McCarthy even outplayed him with a pick-6. Better turn things around quickly. Things dont get any easier for Da Bears @ Lions next week who are steamed after getting dumped in Green Bay. Speaking of the Packers, the Commanders @ Packers this Thurs is a possible NFC Championship preview and likely the biggest game of the week.

"Caleb is a fraud I have seen enough. Packers win the division."

and

"Congrats to the Bears and Giants on being Preseason and Offseason champs"

and

"Those are the Bears I know and love! Different year, different coach…same results."

and

"This game went exactly the way you expected a Bears game to go."

and

"Why cant the bears be good?"

with

"I’m a Redskins/Commanders fan so I’ve had some heartbreak but I would have to be talked off a ledge if I was a Bears fan"

as well

"How can anyone in Chicago’s locker room or sideline respect a man with nail polish on his fingers, and this is your Quarterback'


ha!

Vikes looked like they were dead in the water until the fourth. lots of close games this opening week.

Yes but close games are not necessarily good games; exhibit A: 49er/Seahawks

That game made me miss Jordan Mason.

Niners CUT JAKE MOODY

Niners CUT JAKE MOODY

U sure?

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

U sure?

Link: Sources: Niners to put George Kittle on IR, waive Jake Moody

 

[dude12]

Somebody told me after waiving Jake Moody, Moody has decided to retire……this true? Was shocked they went into this season with him. Not like he didn’t get opportunities. Mentally cooked

 

[kingdivac]

Wonder if the 49ers could lure Gould out of retirement or where-ever he is for a nice salary at least for the season while they figure out their mess......Bills picked Prater whose nearly the same age. They've probably already asked.

 

[kingdivac]

Nevermind, I see they're going after Eddy Pineiro who hopefully isn't a pinata.

I saw that on FB. Don’t think it was legit though. Haven’t seen it reported anywhere.

 

[kingdivac]

9ers went from favored 7 to 4.5 without Purdy - that's pretty generous - I would've put it at 2 for Mac Jones. Guy's close to as poor as Jimmy G with scrambling and worse under pressure.

 

[kingdivac]

BTW Jimmy G's base salary for Rams backup is $4.5mm - not bad for the pine. Though With Stafford's age and reported back issues, the 49ers have a possibility of playing their old QB later in the season.

This will surely more than make up for trading Micah Parsons

 

[ESP47]

You would have made a lot of money when Clowney was drafted if you had bet that he'd play 11+ years and never record double digit sacks.

49ers now favored by 3pts off of 7 earlier with Purdy likely out with turf toe - mild cases take 2-3 weeks to heal but moderate ones are 4-6 weeks apparently. I doubt the 49ers go .500 with Mac Jones the next 4 games - if they're quite lucky they'll be 3-2 but 2-3 or 1-4 seems more likely. Not even sure Jones is level with ol JimmyG. After watching the Saint/Cardinals highlights - the game becomes more winnable for Saints with Mac Jones starting. His mobility is cruddy, especially compared to Purdy's. He also throws picks - in 2023 in 11 games he had 12 interceptions as well 11 interception in 14 games in 2022. In 7 games last year with Jags, he threw 8 interceptions Given those statistics, it is highly likely he throws 1 or even 2 interceptions on Sunday. Meanwhile Rattler looked a little better than I recall last season the season opener vs Cardinals no interceptions or touchdowns, but the Saints offense wasn't too good vs Cardinals, and defense a little worse with poor tackling.
