GG azy/Bucs. Very frustrating loss for the Bears after having the lead for most of the game, one that got away, thanks to a major choke by our QB Jones, 6 picks thrown!! and a missed FG. The Bear defense was great, so was the Buc defense when it needed to in the red zone and in the critical 4th qtr along with all the picks. The aforementioned Bear FS Bass made PotW with 3 interceptions! A shame that effort was wasted. Total # of picks in the game was 10 ! That game shows me that the Bears are def in the mix for a PO spot, but will need to reduce the passing, rely more on the run and defense, based on all the picks thrown so far, I dont see any other option.

Its definitely a debatable subject, but... I love when my weights find a gem sitting in the FA pile, like Bass. Again, so far anyway, short term, will see how it goes longer term. Will be interesting.
It's always a good discussion to have - and one day want to crack the weights formula calculation, should have enough data to do so....
It's just that for me, the way it works, you can end up with excellent speed - no stats or average speed - good stats; obviously elite players will always be elite irrespective of weightings.
Think will be easier when the increased draft pool rolls out.

GG Rams. It was a major way for the Packers to bounce back after getting shut out in London by the Raiders last week. Good luck the rest of the way!

An ugly watch for sure. My RZ offense has been questionable at best in this league and one other, might be time for me to invest in some internal playbook review and figure out what I’m doing wrong there. But not to take credit away from your defensive effort which is always there every game in every league. The Bears showed nicely on that side of the ball for sure. Good game!
GG Bo/Lions, Bears got lucky on a good sim, QB "Box of Chocolates" Jones did a 180 fresh off his 6 pick game vs the Bucs. WR3 Merz unexpectedly put up a big game earning PotW honors, as did Jones. Hope the worst is behind Jones from here on out. Changing up the WR group with King at WR1 may have been a big help, will see, may have to take him off the trade block.

GG, being swept by the Bears was not on the agenda this year, lol. Do me a favor and not meet up in the postseason.
