Great start for the Bears, last thing you want to do is catch an easy TD and get a lead, no need to go against type now.

Tirico pretty understated INT call as if he’s doing Chicago radio.
Maye’s blemishes were covered up by a great TD catch and a Diggs catch. Otherwise he got shut down and fumbled a lot. Denver’s pass rush isn’t the same as the Texans so he can probably game manage and be ok and wait for the Denver offense to make the mistakes, as they did today with Houston.

Peyton’s entire week will be on getting Stidham to pull out a Tebow miracle.

Bears are great in the 4th, but they need to stay within somewhat striking distance.

Looks like the Bears are not used to the weather...

Have to wonder if the Bears aren't squandering too many opportunities.

Rams a little too pass heavy, too many third and longs.

As they've been all year. These conditions were always going to make things difficult for them.

Rams around 100 net yards in first half, 85 on first drive.
I expect that changes this drive
Bear down

Pretty dull game so far, but we're entering the Satan hour so hopefully in for a good finish.

Just a horrible game plan from McVay. Rams are actually one of the better running teams in the league, so to not even try and run it on a drive that starts at the 50 is malpractice.

Footing I think is a bigger issues than cold.
Receivers on both sides really aren’t able to run the crisp routes.
Running as well, I think the Rams o line isn’t able to get the right footing to get proper blocking patterns when the stretch out the line running wide, as the Rams do.

Affects a guy like Nakua especially as a receiver.

Coming out of half they ran twice for 1st down and then I don't think ran again, in 2 possessions

11 rushes all game, not even doing that badly at 4.4 a carry. I know you got the MVP at QB and good weapons, but it's been bad all night outside the first drive.

So Bears need to let the Rams get 10 points here quickly, than they have them right where they want them.

Why so few? 17 is much more of their thing.

Tirico licking his chops to jump all over the narrative of the Bears being behind.
