wvParticipantThat isn’t something you want to flaunt on your resume. I gotta think they have to be considering replacing Tomlin. How are you going to “run it back” next year with Tomlin and Rodgers?
Yeah, its a weird situation. Most in the National media seem to love Tomlin and constantly say ‘He would win if he had a QB’ but then they act like Tomlin doesnt have any responsibility in finding a QB.
It would not surprise me to see A.Rogers pull a Philip Rivers next year. Just sit around and wait for a good team to lose their QB…

vwvParticipantQB ratings in Wildcard round. Lowest to highest.
Rogers – 50
Caleb – 71
B.Young 71
Herbert – 74
J.Hurts – 79
Purdy – 80
CJ Stroud- 86
Maye -86
T.Lawrence- 86
Stafford – 93
Love – 103
J.Allen – 108wvParticipantSteelers/Tomlin now 7 straight playoff losses. Trailed by 21 or more points in ALL of them.
w
vwvParticipantStartling stat i saw on a vid: The Bears and Packers played 3 times. Bears won two of three, as we know. Here is the stat:
Offensive plays run while leading: Packers 106. Bears ZERO.
Let that sink in.
w
vwvParticipantBen Johnson’s style. Slightly different than McVay.
“F— the Packers,” Johnson said in the video. “F— them. F—ing hate those guys.”
“There’s a rivalry that exists between these two teams, something that I fully recognize and I’m a part of,” Johnson said. “And, yeah, I just, I don’t like that team”
w
vwvParticipantTexans Defense – 30
Steelers – 6That was one of the ugliest games I’ve ever not watched.
CJ Stroud looked gawd-awful. Texans OLine looked awful. Texans defense looked like the 85 Bears.
Mike Tomlin won a Super Bowl once. How did that happen?
Patriots at home are only 3 point favorites against the Texans.

vJanuary 12, 2026 at 11:29 am in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161131wvParticipantOne thing i see from watching the highlights of last year’s Bear game. I guess Puka didnt play. Leading Ram receivers were Tutu, Whittington and Demarcus Robinson.
This year obviously, its Puka and Davante. So, there’s that.
Bears put a lot of pressure on Stafford last year. I forget if the Oline was injured or what. But Stafford was sacked 3 times and strip-sacked, and threw one INT, but the bears also had another INT that was called back on a penalty.
Turnovers. Bears create em. So hold on to the ball, Kyren.

vJanuary 12, 2026 at 11:15 am in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161130wvParticipantOn paper anyway, the Rams offense is better than the Chicago offense, and ought to shred the Chicago defense at a higher rate than the Chicago offense will against the Rams defense.
…
Shredding the Bears defense? I dunno.
Do you remember last year. Same two teams in Chicago. Only Chicago has a better coach this year. Rams offense scored 18 pts.w
vwvParticipantSeahawks 6.5 point favorites over SF.
w
vwvParticipant4. Los Angeles Rams
At full strength, the Rams’ offensive line is arguably the best unit in the league..
——-
The Oline has ‘quietly’ had a good year. They’ve been good. They havent been ‘dominant’ like say the Eagles line last year, or some of the Detroit lines the last few years, but they’ve been solid.
I dont think any of the losses this year could be pinned on the oline. (one wonders what Marc Bulger thinks as he watches this team on Sundays)

vJanuary 12, 2026 at 9:37 am in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161119wvParticipanti’m getting more and more worried. caleb’s arm strength is very very good. elite. can make all sorts of throws. can move around. he’ll be able to avoid the pass rush and just zip throws to receivers. just a bad bad matchup for this defense.
Well, I was a bear-skeptic for most of the season, until i saw what they did to the Eagles defense. Just stomped them. I havent seen any team do that to the Eagles defense.
Ben Johnson looks like a good head-coach. Caleb is still learning, but he’s poised, elusive and clutch.
And they are built for bad weather. Bears are 6-2 at home. Their overall stats are misleading. The Bear defense gives up 17 points a game in Chicago. 30 points on the road.
…the 49ers put up 42 points on them. That was in California, though.
w
vwvParticipantEagles fans blaming the offensive co-ordinator. This may be one of those rare times when the fans are right. I dunno. Eagles have great weapons and a powerful OLine, but they never seem to play that way.
wvParticipantMan, the Chargers offense made the Pats look like the 85 Bears. Herbert looked lost and confused.
Pats now get the winner of Pitt v Houston.
w
vJanuary 12, 2026 at 7:51 am in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161111wvParticipantBears lost their fill-in Left Tackle, but they might get their starter back this week.

The Bears erased a 21-3 deficit and picked up their biggest comeback win in postseason history as they beat the Packers, but they’ll have to advance through the playoffs without a player on each side of the ball.
According to head coach Ben Johnson, linebacker TJ Edwards, who was carted off the field in the second quarter of the game, suffered a fractured fibula, and will miss the remainder of the playoffs.
What’s more, offensive lineman Ozzy Trapilo, who was helped off the field in the fourth quarter of the furious comeback effort, suffered an injury to his patellar tendon, and will also be out for the remainder of the postseason, according to Johnson.
Edwards appeared in 10 regular season games for the Bears this season, with 67 combined tackles and 0.5 sacks for Chicago.
Trapilo has been a key reserve lineman for the Bears, filling in at left tackle after the injury to Braxton Jones earlier in the season.
Jones could potentially come back next week for the Bears as they advance in the playoffs, but losing Trapilo will impact the Bears’ depth on the offensive line moving forward.

maybe lafleur should call the plays. ha.
I think this is where a running-QB is a significant advantage. This kind of weather.

vJanuary 11, 2026 at 8:53 pm in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161094wvParticipantCurrent forecast has both Saturday and Sunday below freezing. I’m assuming that it will also be windy. I remember the last cold weather playoff game the Rams played in Chicago. I hope this one starts and ends better for the Rams.
Well, they are gonna haf to find a way to block Richard Dent.

vJanuary 11, 2026 at 8:23 pm in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161091wvParticipantEarly betting line is Rams favored by 4.5
Which makes no sense to me — the Bears are home, and are heavily aided by sorcery, enchantment and a West-Coast-Thaumaturgy Offense.
w
vJanuary 11, 2026 at 8:13 pm in reply to: Rams next game? Chicago! So…setting up the Bears game thread #161088wvParticipantat least one of seattle or sf will knock the other one out.
hopefully rams can beat bears but yeah. they got some kind of weird mojo going on.
Last time they played. 2024. Bears 24 Rams 18. D’Andre Swift had 92 yards rushing and 72 yards receiving. Rams had a fumble and an INT. Bears had zero turnovers.
Stafford had a 77 QB-rating.
Caleb had a 106 rating.w
vwvParticipantI shall now root for Drake Maye to throw 3 pick-sixes, and to trip in the endzone for a safety.

Rams v Bears
SF v SeattleThe Bears are a weird magic team. No-one quite knows how their formula works. They just win.

Yeah…there’s no coming back from that.

Kyren Williams passed Todd Gurley (261) in career postseason rushing yards and moved to 7th in franchise history.I cant find a post-season list, but Kyren is 7th in rushing in general. He past Les Josephson and Tank Younger a while back, and there should have been a parade.

I wish Al Michaels or Troy Aikman would talk like that.
PS: …did Stafford ‘moon walk’ on that play??

No. 5 Rams at No. 1 Seahawks (if Bears beat Packers, Eagles beat 49ers)So, i see the Bears beat the Packers.
Rams now go to Seattle or Chicago. No rematch against the Eagles. Fine by me.
