    3 touchdowns! More than his incompletions (8/10). It's like Trubisky and Fitzpatrick switched places prior to the game.

    You guys legitimately look like a playoff team this season.

    Guys, I figured it out.
    The all time passing TD record would be 8 if a new one was set.
    Trubisky is a threat to break it.

    Take a good solid look at the number 8. Maybe turn your screen or head sideways if it helps. No f*cking wonder why Trubisky's gonna do it.

    1. Rams
    2. Chiefs
    3. New Orleans
    4. Baltimore
    5. Cincinnati

    DEFENSE:
    1. Baltimore
    2. Jacksonville
    3. Chicago
    4. Rams
    5. Green Bay

    Ravens shredded a top 10 defense last week after coming back from a 2 TD deficit. Furthermore they average 24.5 first downs per game and over 30 points per game. They are 13/15 for red zone TDs and they are the first team in league history to score touchdowns on its first 13 red zone trips. That's HUGE and points to a very consistent offense. Add their unreal defense and they are the team to beat in the AFC (along with Kansas City).

    @Alamact can back me up on this.

    Denver: "Is this a safe lead?"

    KC: "No, this is Patrick."

    That was an AMAZING 4th quarter, but I don’t know what was worse, Denver’s play calling or the broadcast trying to constantly push this "Showtime" nickname...

    And we kept the Bears atop the Division. Even on your bye week, you win! What is in the water up in Chicago these days...

    As for the Packers-Lions, great game that was overshadowed by the Packers inequities (don't say that too often). They literally did everything they could to give the Lions a win. So, thank you, Pack! A couple of face mask penalties and personal fouls, a couple Rodgers fumbles... Mason Crosby (aka my new favorite Detroit Lion) was 1/5 on FG's, and 0/1 on the PAT (13 missed points!!). His lone FG make came with 5 seconds left in the game, which meant nothing to the outcome but probably everything to Crosby. Nice show of confidence in his kicker by coach McCarthy.

    Also, yes I still hate the Packers. BUT.

    In the 4th quarter, when the game was still up for grabs, Crosby just shanked his 4th FG. Rodgers was having a mini-meltdown on the sideline hiding in his towel, and then this:


    Probably the most human thing I've ever seen #12 do.

    Aaron, i still hate you, but that was a cool thing you did there.

    McCaskey: Well, Ryan, I made it... despite your directions.
    Pace: Ah, Mrs. McCaskey! Welcome! I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable season!
    [...]
    Pace: Oh egads! My regular season is ruined!
    But what if... I were to trade for Khalil Mack and disguise him as my own draft pick? Oh ho ho ho ho... delightfully devilish, Ryan!
    McCaskey: Uh-
    Intro music
    Ryan Pace with his crazy transactions,
    The Bears fans are gonna need their medication,
    Til you see Pace's new draft picks and players,
    There'll be trouble in town tonight!
    McCaskey: Ryan!
    Pace: Mrs. McCaskey! I was just, uh... just stretching my calves on the trade block. Isometric exercise! Care to join me?
    McCaskey: Why is there no elite pass rusher in your depth chart, Ryan?
    Pace: Uhh... no! That isn't a hole. It's stats. Stats from the Kwiatkoski we're having! Mmm... Kwiatkoski!
    [...]
    Pace: Mrs. McCaskey, I hope you're ready for an elite DPOY!
    McCaskey: I thought we were having Kwiatkoski.
    Pace: D'oh, no. I said Mack-bisky! That's what I call Khalil Mack!
    McCaskey: You call Khalil Mack "Mack-bisky"?
    Pace: Yes. It's a regional dialect!
    McCaskey: Uh-huh... uh, what region?
    Pace: Uhh... Central Illinois?
    McCaskey: Really? Well, I've been to Decatur, and I've never heard anyone use the phrase "Mack-bisky".
    Pace: Oh, not in Decatur, no. It's a Charleston expression.
    McCaskey: I see.
    [...]
    You know, this Khalil Mack is quite similar to the one they have in Oakland.
    Pace: Oh ho ho ho... no, patented Bears linebackers. Old team recipe.
    McCaskey: For Mack-bisky?
    Pace: Yes.
    McCaskey: Yeah, so you call him Mack-bisky despite the fact Mitch is obviously on offense.
    Pace: Ye- he- you know, the- one thing I should- excuse me for one second.
    McCaskey: Of course.
    Pace: (Yawn) Well, that was wonderful. A good time was had by all, I'm pooped.
    McCaskey: Yes, I should be- Good Lord, what is happening in there!?
    Pace: Trubisky throwing for six touchdowns?
    McCaskey: A Bears QB throwing for six touchdowns!? At this time of year, with a new head coach, against the Buccaneers, localized entirely in Soldier Field!?
    Pace: Yes!
    McCaskey: May I see him?
    Pace: ... No.
    The NFC North: Ryan, the Bears are on fire!
    Pace: No, NFC North—that's just a winning record!
    McCaskey: Well, Ryan, you are an odd fellow, but I must say... you Mack a good Bisky.
    The NFC North: Help! Help!
