That is at least the thirrd time this season he took a hit that I see flags for all the time. Was it bad not really but other teams and qbs get that call all the the time
We're severely undermanned today. We need to be slowing the game down and keeping everything in front of us on defense. Please Bowles no more all out blitzes!!!!!!!!!
Frankly, I'm shocked they didn't punt. Bates got his first down because he called a play the Bears couldn't have prepped for since we rarely use Cannon in that way. WTF, why not a draw or a flanker screen?
Other teams Qbs arent rookies. Baker Mayfield took the nastiest head shot ive seen all year, they threw the flag and then picked it up.
If they do, they shouldn't. If a QB starts a slide with a defender a couple of feet away and just barely gets dinged by his knee as he goes over the top to avoid a big hit, that's not a penalty.
Am I the only one who realizes all of these injuries more likely than not just bought Todd another year?
again, a stopped clock is right twice a day. If Bates gets unpredictable ONCE in a while, that's all it is. Lets stop pretending Bates is some mastermind that keeps defenses fooled all day long cause he isn't.
