It is confounding to me that basaccia is still employed. Week after week special teams is a joke. It has been a joke since he got here, and last night was his Mona Lisa.On a lighter note, user name checks out.
On a more serious note, if a team like the Titans or Bengals wants LaFleur, they can have him. I’m sick of watching Captain Conservative lose one score games.

What happened...?
To be fair, his receivers don't do him a lot of favors. The amount of drops by this group is pretty insane for an NFL WR corp. They're leading the league in drops of catchable balls. Zaccheaus dropped a ball yesterday that almost sent my foot through the TV. Moore dropped one that he wasn't expecting, which almost also created a shoe situation.
We stole the game...
I don’t think special teams was the biggest issue. Doubs just has to make that play. 3 FGs, didn’t punt a single time in the game. Other things lost you that one
yea
Ahhh I see. I was just confused by all the critters and snow lol. Enjoy the win, packers did everything they could to lose it and the bears cashed in on every opportunity.
I'd be willing to bet that if DJ somehow did not catch that ball, we would have seen a flag. It was a perfect set up for that. Good thing we won't ever find out unless somehow that ref can be interviewed to verify what he would have done..
Yes no doubt, I didn’t say it was, there are many issues. Doubs needs to go grab that ball though, waiting for it to come to you results in exactly what happened. little in between bounce, can’t corral it, turnover. I watch the packers every week, the special teams is a joke every single week and he’s the highest paid special teams coordinator in the league. Red zone offense was terrible last night, even when love was in. Our cornerbacks are awful, without parsons they are gonna continue to get torched. LaFleur continues to have questionable play calling, he’s a great culture head coach but his in game coaching is extremely questionable, especially with the offensive play calling. Tons of issues.
Prior to the onside kick, da Bears were 0.5% to win, according to next gen stats.
Yeah I misremembered
its also worth reiterating (iterating (?)), this is his 2nd yr in the league, first with an actual offense that is coherent and hes been asked to significantly change his game (under center vs gun).
The Bears didn't exactly try to not give it away either. 10 penalities for 105 yards, 4 personal foul calls on plays that would have gotten them the ball back, holding calls that eliminated first downs, whatever the heck Johnson called on that 4th and 1 when the Bears O-Line was absolutely blowing Green Bay off the ball and the continued pattern of dropped balls that hit the receivers in the numbers. That's a walk-in TD if Zaccheaus catches a ball that a good HS receiver catches. That ball couldn't have been handed to him any better. It'll be nice to get Odunze and Burden back.
This has been a HUGE issue all year. The Bears have the most dropped balls in the league and some of these aren't just drops that wipe out a 7 yard completion. They're drops that are wiping out explosive plays.
His completion percentage is down because he saves his offensive line sacks with his ability to escape doom, then just throw it away. I think he's getting more aggressive now(which is a good thing) and isn't automatically defaulting to throwing the ball away. That's a byproduct of gaining experience and growing confidence. He's delivering balls where he might be the only QB in the league can throw. That last TD pass.....I'm guessing only he and Josh Allen have the ability to make that throw.
it is indeed a.rare trait to have the ability both physically , but more important mentally , to get things accomplished under great pressure.
