Looks a lot like last week. Defensive punt fest so far. No real surprise though. I'm surprised that nobody mentioned that Tanner Gentry actually got the start.

On that last defensive series, they subbed Houston-Carson in at S as he was on the blitz.

Wow. Tanner Gentry open for a big gainer. Biscuit missed it by a mile.

Wow. Bizarre play on punt. #15 didn't see the fair catch signal and starts to make the tackle and stops when the whistle blows. (I didn't either, but it must've happened or no whistle.) That has to be a penalty, even if he stops. Break for the Bears.

Had a guy uncovered in his face. He threw it away.

Not to defend him too much. He's been shit today.

Dowell Loggains ain't coming back next season. He's been awful.

0-0 at end of first quarter punt party. Bears D is playing as well as the Raven's D or better. Bears O looks better than Raven's O, but Biscuit has missed 2 throws open for significant gains that would've made a difference.

To be fair, they called it correct according to rule. Just bad rule.

Not a bad rule. Injuries are horrid for the NFL and when the most important position in sports goes down it kills the sport.

Utterly terrible playcall, though. Running game was doing work and you're on the bottom scrapings of the WR depth chart. C'mon, Dowell.

Bears 3 Ravens 0.

I disagree. There needs to be SOME malintent to call a PF penalty. As we saw in this case, the DL guy just reached out and grabbed the QB's legs. Didn't hurt the guy nor intend to. He's fighting against other top athletes. He can grab any other ball carrier that way. But we can discuss another time.

Bears have not looked as good against the run today as they have been. They rip off a big one.

Ravens fumble at Bears 20 and Bears recover. Turnover!

A Bear yanked that one out. Didn't see who. Huge play basically takes points off the board.

Fake 3rd stretch in a row doesn't work. Rollout fails. Another Bears punt.

On that other bad play where Sims is lined up to block Suggs, there has to be a way to check out of that kind of mismatch.

Callahan interception and return down to the 20!! Looks like Jackson hit him in the head.

Perriman was dead on the ground afterward. Yikes. Haven't seen a Bears returned pick like that in many years.
