The Chicago Bears are just the second team in NFL history to allow 50+ points in consecutive games. The only other team to do it: the 1923 Rochester Jeffersons.
The Rochester Jeffersons? “since I moved up like George and Weezy,” as the Fresh Prince famously rapped. The Chicago Bears have allowed 50+ points three times in their past 11 games. Prior to that, the Bears allowed 50+ points three times in their previous 759 games. This according to Elias statistics bureau. Whatever you do in life, you’re MUCH better at doing it than the Chicago Bears are at trying to stop their opponent from scoring.
Marc Trestman is in over his head. Career wise, he’s a dead man walking. And of course, Jay Cutler is to caring what 7 Up is to containing caffeine “never have, never will.”
Let’s look at this Chicago Bears dumpster fire from last night in tweets:
Never seen Chicago so disengaged and unexcited about a #Bears #Packers game. You can truly feel the don’t care in this city right now

Tim Beckman is watching Marc Trestman’s post-game press conference and thinking “Thank God I’m not that guy!” #Bears #Illini

Mississippi State didn’t beat their FCS opponent this weekend as bad as the Packers are beating the Bears.

It’s fitting Jay Cutler’s hometown is Santa Claus, cause he seems to deliver about once a year.

Wait, there’s a show where Katherine Heigl is in charge of national security? Wow, NBC, thanks for making me root for the bad guys.

Reminder: Jay Cutler is the highest-paid player in the NFL this season.
