Kwiatkowski has been a damn impressive player in the games I have seen this year. Looks like the Bears have a suitable replacement for Urlacher finally.

Barkley just threw a beautiful 31 yard TD pass.

Would like to see Matt and Kwiatkowski become fixtures on the Bears. If only they would play Braverman. . .

Wow, Bryan Walters with a touchdown catch and the Jaguars are winning. Both big surprises.

Thielen's success has very been surprising, given the fact that he's a white UDFA and the Vikings drafted Laquan Treadwell (called the most "NFL ready" WR in the draft) in the first round and have other black veteran WRs such as Johnson, Patterson, and Wright. The usual caste protocol for a guy like that is to have him wallow in obscurity for years, abuse his body on special teams, torture his psyche by constantly cutting/waiving/releasing him, and permitting every black WR to play ahead of him on offense.

If Adam achieves a 1,000-yard season, it'll be every bit as shocking as when Gary Barnidge came out of nowhere last season.

Back to back clutch throws by Barkley wiped out by holding penalties. One of them was to Braverman.

Bears receivers seem to always be dropping Barkley passes straight into their arms.

Good duel between Cousins and Wentz. Ertz leading the way with 9 catches for 99 yards.

Barkley should be given a fair opportunity to keep the starting job next year. He's accurate and very smart and his arm is strong enough. He'll be the consistent quarterback Jay Cutler never has been.

Zenner with 4 carries for 19 yards so far, they should be feeding him the ball a lot more.

Burkhead also running very well.

Both Burkhead and Zenner would regularly put up 100 yard games if their stupid coaches wiuld feed them the ball as much as the average black running back gets! Beyond frustrating

Barkley played well today. He passed accurately.

His stats would have been better and the Bears would have won if the Bears had receivers that didn't keep dropping the ball.

Zenner outpreformed Washington 5.1 yards per carry to 4.0 yet Zach got less than half the number of carries.

For Cincinnati a similar phenomenon occurred. Burkhead averaged 5 yards per while Hill averaged 4.4. In this case, Hill received 3 times the amount of carries.

Ertz with a big catch on 3rd and 10. Over 100 yards on the day!

Wow, Kerrigan with the strip sack and Murphy with the recovery. That ends this one.

It's too bad the Bears couldn't pullout that win. They need white book ends on the offensive line to replace the sumos.

Especially bad play by sumos today. Numerous holding penalties, terrible pass protection. Too bad there's not a law barring them from playing tackle.
