Also I just wanted to say watching the end of this Bears/Lions game I think it's sad that Chicago is blowing out Detroit 48-24 and Detroit is playing like shit again, and that last week was a prime example of just how far we are from being a good team. I don't want to just be satisfied with eking out wins against mediocre opponents, even though today was a small step in the right direction. We have a long way to go to even consider being competitive against the truly elite teams in the NFL.

Well he needs to look at more than 2 potential receivers lol

Well what if the offensive line is only giving him enough time to look at two potential receivers ?

You can't be successfull going 3 wide if your offensive line doesn't give you enough time to go through your progressions.

I know that wasn't the case the entire game (on Talib's 3rd pick I think he had enough time and was probably just staring down Moss) but again all the mistakes he made are correctable.

Agreed. Still think he's locking in on receivers too much. He's playing hurt and shaken. He also looks like he's thinking too much as opposed to playing. This might be the growing pains, but...At least we won. Here's to Denver putting one on Dallas.

I think he is locking on because he doesn't trust those other guys (for good reason. If that is the case we can atleast get ARE back into the fold like he was the first two games. He has disappeared. I think we shoud move Mitchell up since Malcom is not producing. Use Kelly on more third down situations. Its worth a try. Cooley is the only one who is consistent all 4 games. I just think the coaching staff needs to scheme for multiple players on a play and not zone in on Moss. Its like we can't get two receivers going at a time. Not including Cooley.

Just watched the Ravens loss to NE, and Flacco has the same issue, focusing in on Mason only. In his defense, Mason dropped 3 balls on the last 3 plays, including a beautifully thrown fade for the go-ahead TD. We desperately need one of the young WRs to step up. Perhaps it is time to give Marco a chance.

Exactly. It was preseason but it seemed like he scored a touchdown a game. Like I said its preseason. But obviously he has a nose for the end zone and probably is a lot quicker than Kelly. Which could result in more separation and a easier target for Campbell. I think the coach is scared to ruffle feathers. I would use Kelly on thrid down situations and red zone situations along with Mitchell. But Mitchell seemed a lot crisper in his routes during the preseason. Kelly was good at getting first downs but not a scorign threat.

You should move Thomas out before Kelly. Thomas hasn't done anything of value this year. I agree though Mitchell has to get in the game.

I would pump Malcom to 4th behing ARE and Devin to fifth and also put devin back on kick returns because we are getting nothing there.

Moss
Mitchell
ARE
Kelly
Thomas

Malcom is not playing well. He has good hands but doesn't create separation like he should. The rap on him ws he was slow. Maybe there is some truth to this.

No I wasn't watching the game. Are you serious?

I'm clearly aware that he was staring down receivers but that wasn't the entire case. In case you failed to notice the offensive line wasn't exactly picking up Tampa Bay's d the entire game. Time for me to ask if you were watching the game? They were getting pressure on him.

It's not just JC. It's JC, the o-line, the wide receivers aren't getting open. Why do you think the backs and tight ends had so many receptions? When nothing's opening up that's where he goes with the ball.
