Vikings are full of dirty players. Smith is one of them and his pride was probably still hurting from Cohen making him look like he was having a blackout during a tackle.

It would make sense to me if they sat Biscuit for the Lions game. Its on the road where he's not the same quarterback as is the Giants game. There's no point in jeopardizing the remainder of the season and Chase Daniels knows this offense. Its the perfect opportunity to rest him.Bears Whiskey Nut wrote:If the Bears can get up early, I could see where Chase Daniels would come in for the 2nd half.alexwilkins wrote:The website said if they had practiced today, he wouldn’t have participated. Which is really meaningless at this point.
We can beat the Lions and the Giants with Daniels at QB, but we do need Biscuit for the Rams.

that was a definite cheap shot from Smith and no excuse for it ... he better get a hefty fine

Nagy will have a press conference at 11:30 today.
Most likely Nagy will confirm that it is Trubiskis throwing shoulder that got banged up on that dirty hit by the Vikings MLB, but Nagy will downplay questions on how the Vikings were taking late shots all game long & on how the refs were clearly trying to help keep the game close by those obvious terrible calls/no calls.
I'm expecting that there will be tons of questions leading up to Sundays game against the Lions, but where Trubiskis start will be a game time decision in which he'll start. (barring it being a fluke serious injury)
Hopefully it's not serious enough to be a lingering problem & I agree with the sentiment here... I if there's even a CHANCE that this shoulder becomes a lingering issue you sit Mitch immediately & give Daniels every available snap in practice.
This is a playoff team right now. Daniels knows this offense & seems perfectly capable of leading this team to 1 or 2 wins against the Lions & Giants.

I listened to Nagy's presser. He was pretty vague when pressed for specifics on the injury and characterized his status as "day to day." When asked specifically about Mitch needing surgery, he flatly denied that possibility. He also spent time singing the praises of Chase Daniel.
Afterwards, Bernstein, McKnight, and Anthony Herron all seemed to feel pretty strongly that Trubisky wouldn't be playing Thursday.

I really hope Mitch is ok. I have none of the faith in Daniels that some of you do. Lions are good enough to beat anyone and it's in Detroit. And they just showed a graphic on Sunday about Mitch being the first QB in ages to start 22 consecutive games for the Bears. Hoping Mitch can play Thursday.

I’m feeling very meatball about this defense right now. I think Vic knows tendencies now and the lions d will be guessing at what chase is doing.

You nailed my feelings exactly. I foresee an ugly, scrum-filled, borderline unwatchable game where we squeak out a win and everybody is grumbling except Bears fans.crueltyabc wrote:I’m feeling very meatball about this defense right now.

Chase had one preseason game if I remember correctly where he was very sharp and lit it up. If its close to being a lingering issue then we rest him and let Chase go and that might be a good time to really get Howard on track.

I believe that was the KC game! They had all their starters playing and we had 2nd string going.Umbali wrote:Chase had one preseason game if I remember correctly where he was very sharp and lit it up.

Let's hope not. I am sure they have great doctors but they can be tricky and take a long time to heal. They are often misdiagnosed too. For other positions you can get by with it, and you can throw with it, that motion especially at the release point and windup is uncomfortable.G08 wrote:I wonder if he sprained his AC joint...

I have a feeling he starts to see how it feels and if the line protects him like they have been he should be ok. Only scary thing for me is this is basically the Lions Superbowl every year so they usually play pretty well.

I remember that game. Chase lit it up for two quarters. Shredding the Chiefs defense.
Chase knows this offense better than Biscuits does. He doesn't have the ceiling of Mitch, but he is serviceable in the Nagy offense, because he knows where to go with the football, and he can read defenses.
If Chase has to play Thursday, it wouldn't be a disaster. I think that the defense would take it upon themselves to take the game over. We would still win by two TD's, 24-10, and the D would have one score, and a +3 TO margin.

I'm torn between wanting Mitch to be out there getting the experience... but if there's a sliver of worry that he can worsen his injury I say sit him for Chase.

Bitch of it is that this is a division game, and not one to be taken lightly. The Lions are fighting for their lives and the Bears on the road haven't shown they're exactly a force.
I don't doubt Daniel would be alright, but if Trubisky can go, you play him.

We have an elite defense.
We have an elite offense with Biscuit and I would imagine a very above average offense with Daniels. One thing to account for is if they have to modify the playbook at all with Daniels, but with his familiarity with the offense and the sheer amount of reps he got in the preseason it shouldn't be toned down all that much.

Watching the highlights from the preseason Chiefs game, Daniels is OK, but certainly not dynamic. His throws are wobbly and without much pace behind them. He threw to the check down a lot, and is NOT what I would call fast on a scramble. If Daniels has to go on Thursday, it will be up to the defense to make the separation from the Lions.

This is why you pay Chase Daniels all that money. Come in on the road and win the game for your team. Our defence is so good that all you have to is now screw up..it’s that simple.
Have a great day

Why is it a forgone conclusion that Daniels is starting?
he's been in that kansas offence for a minute and he doesnt totally suck as far as backups go. With this game being divisional but not as tough as the upcoming games ( even the giants are coming off a win ), id be down to rest mitch thinking that we are going to play more upcoming games than the rest of the north.wab wrote:Why is it a forgone conclusion that Daniels is starting?
If he plays mitch and the injury gets aggravated, we are gonna all go batshit. the feeling around this team is they take precautionary measures to look after guys and we still plan a game that wins.
LETS GO CHASE.

Because Kahlil Mack could have played in 2 games, but was held out against weaker opponents. The Lions are a bit better opponent than those and it is a division game. But if your plan is to have Biscuit healthy down the stretch, a way to help make that happen is to give him this week off.wab wrote:Why is it a forgone conclusion that Daniels is starting?
It's arguable.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".
