Fisher is going to reach into his bag of tricks today on teams and maybe some razzle dazzle gadget play on O too. This is going to be a tough game maybe and we need some cheap points.

Good call. I wonder, though, how this team can fool anyone anymore.

I dont think so. No razzle-dazzle today.
I think Fisher will save that for Baltimore.
Today, i think they just play
straight up and rely on their
superior talent.

Bears defense is 24th in rushing yards, 15th in attempts, and 27th in yards per rush allowed.

But they are 5th in both passing attempts and passing yards allowed.

Is this a case where teams don’t bother to throw because they can run so easily?

Well, in terms of passing defense, they are

16th in completion percentage allowed (ie. 1st would be a much lower completion percentage)

14th in yards per attempt

17th in opponents qb rating

22nd in sack percentage

So yeah it looks like teams don’t throw on them because why bother, you can run on them so easily.

Yeah, I’m with WV. I don’t think he wastes those plays on the Bears. Trick plays are more effective the less they are used.
