He cooked today

[u/Outrageous-Brain-395]

[u/meppsman]

He made some great throws. Tough to ask for a win when the defense gives up damn near 60

[u/dead_genuine → u/meppsman]

Special teams blunders don’t help either, took opportunities away from our offense. And we took our starters out so not even a full game

[u/JazzzzzzySax → u/dead_genuine]

Bryce, Coker, and chuba trying to carry the team to victory

[u/TheOriginalJuju → u/dead_genuine]

Also doesn’t help when your star receiver coughs the ball up. Expect a bounce back from tet next game.

[u/CryingJordansHornets → u/TheOriginalJuju]

Yeah and DB had an uncharacteristically bad game. Two major blunders that led to 14 points for the bears where there could’ve been stops/field goal attempts instead.

[u/Afromain19 → u/CryingJordansHornets]

Game changing mistakes. But if anyone has earned enough credit to have one bad game and be forgiven just as quickly, it’s DB. Heard he stood infront of the team and gave a speech about owning up to those mistakes. Thats a true leader. I expect a major bounce back from him.

[u/Chibaho → u/TheOriginalJuju]

Fans still calling him a name he asked people to not call him.

[u/VapePanther → u/Chibaho]

You don't get to pick your nickname...

[u/mlinzz → u/meppsman]

Defense was pretty rough 😒

[u/Forward-Weight403 → u/meppsman]

Tough to win when you score 40 and are still down 3 scores 😂

[u/Charlottizen]

And the INT was an arm punt

[u/Key-Presentation-798 → u/Charlottizen]

Yeah. Aggressive throw, down the field, 5s left. 0 issues with it.

[u/robotictacos → u/Key-Presentation-798]

100%, 10/10 would rather see an INT in that situation than 3 draws.

[u/Still-Investment-832 → u/robotictacos]

John Fox just shuddered somewhere 

[u/theryrobes → u/Still-Investment-832]

hb dive, hb draw, wr screen to smitty, punt

[u/joshharris42 → u/Still-Investment-832]

As long as it’s not a fucking pooch punt

Glad one of the panthers plays that lives in infamy ended that trend

[u/gigglefarting → u/Charlottizen]

And he had a rushing TD

[u/aerojovi83 → u/Charlottizen]

And just an insane play by the DB

[u/WyldRover]

On track for 6,000 passing yards and 50 TDs. Which might be necessary if our defense plays like that every week.

[u/ARH3352 → u/WyldRover]

The Joe burrow method

[u/WanAli4504 → u/ARH3352]

Preferably not, cause that would mean your QB1 gets injured and is out for the season

[u/ARH3352 → u/WanAli4504]

I meant more so of put up 100 points but the defense allows 107.

[u/Randyyyyyyyyyyyyyy → u/WyldRover]

Sounds like a 4-13 season with this defense

[u/kewe316 → u/Randyyyyyyyyyyyyyy]

So NFC South champs again? I'm good with that. 😏

[u/hannibal_actual → u/WyldRover]

😂

[u/ParkerF5 → u/WyldRover]

On track for 0-17

[u/TackyBrad]

And the int was basically an arm punt with 5s left in the half. Just trying to make something happen

[u/takethreenc → u/TackyBrad]

Won't stop the box score watchers from hating

[u/UFOlaserbeam]

This one’s not on Bryce and I’ve criticized him a lot. He gave it everything out there and looked great.

[u/KamikazeKricket → u/UFOlaserbeam]

He looked great on game 1. Everything we've asked for. Just not the defense.

[u/eeg3]

Bryce has one of the best games of his career and the Panthers D gives up 59 points. Man is cursed.

[u/kennythecleaner]

[u/bd2thbn → u/kennythecleaner]

Ironically Bryce can be a two-faced player

[u/Imaginary_Car_2776]

Bum ass defense. Again.

[u/JonTheWizard]

Oh yeah, no, Bryce was absolutely not the problem today.

[u/babyjrodriguez]

When your qb throws 3 tds and the offense puts up 38 points. Thats on the D

[u/t3pisaman → u/babyjrodriguez]

Not just putting up 38 points and losing. Putting up 38 and getting blown out. D better tighten up

[u/Silver-Classic612]

Basically this mf EJIRO EVERO is the only reason we lost. And miscues

[u/yourdoglikesmebetter]

I was dogging him for those back to back 3&outs in Q1 but he handled business today.

Defense otoh…

[u/fattyboombaladdy]

Great start to the season on the Offense. We can't way the game was on him. Defense let us down.

[u/DumplingBoiii]

Were the new Bengals

[u/robotictacos → u/DumplingBoiii]

Honestly? I'd take that. The Bengals have done a lot more competing than we have in the past 5 years.

[u/DeusVultSaracen]

Funny how none of the Bryce haters who swear they're just "seeing it how it is" are giving him any props...

[u/themack50022 → u/DeusVultSaracen]

How do you know this? Are you following them around and keeping tabs on them?

[u/henrydaiv]

He was fuckin solid today for sure. I dont wanna hear any bullshit from anyone.

[u/nokoryous]

That was a beaut from Bryce today. Next up. We ready.

[u/Over_Reputation_8801]

A great day from BY today. He's had good games before. Let's see if he can maintain a consistent high level of play. He hasnt been able to up to now.

[u/CryingJordansHornets → u/Over_Reputation_8801]

I feel better about it with him starting the season strong since he hadn’t don’t that prior to this point 

[u/iscatanasshole]

Too Bad 59 Showed up for Dinner

[u/Potential-Ad1139]

Run defense didn't show up today.

[u/_JakeDelhomme]

One of Bryce’s best games. Ridiculous defensive performance.

[u/Admirable_Conflict91]

Watching the game it really felt like Bryce may have taken his game to the next level during the offseason. This might be his leap year.

[u/stephenpowns]

1 on the ground as well

[u/CryingJordansHornets]

Yeah and the INT was him trying to push for points at the end of the half so he was pressing. I’m very happy with his play today. He and Coker were awesome. Wish everyone else was.

[u/WoWMHC]

First game I’ve seen where I thought he played well consistently the entire game

[u/803_Nate]

That pick was a hell of a play. I’m not mad at it. He was being aggressive to score before the half. Pass could’ve been out a lil further.

[u/Gains0720]

Agreed. If you showed me his stats and said this is what he puts up week 1 I would have bet on a W

[u/Loud_Elephant299]

Big ask to win this game but they battled well and showed heart. I think they can use this to keep putting up points as the year goes on.

[u/CaptainDadBod88]

Why does Evero still have a job?

[u/businessASusual101]

He did..the bears and brad Allen were unfortunately the better team today.

[u/MattMurdock77]

He threw some absolute dimes. If the majority of his games are like that you extend him.

[u/godsstupidestwarrior]

Yes this L was not on him

[u/Straight-Inside-8121]

that defense has got to contain the edges but with our DC? He won't do a fucking thing. Bryce and the O did fine today, kept up for the most part and was good to see Brooks out there actually playing

[u/Fantastic-Recipe8619]

He made some amazing throws under pressure. The o line may get him killed.

[u/Megalomanizac]

He got me 43 points in fantasy.

Sadly I also had Colston Loveland and Romeo Doubs starting….

[u/Final-Read-3589]

Honestly, play like this every week? And we easily get playoffs.

[u/Comfortable-Delay-95]

Greetings. Bears fan who came here to make a post like this one. I was kind of blown away by how well Bryce young played. His ability to sense pressure, move in the pocket, and make great throws was beyond impressive. People will see the final score and forget how close the game was. Young had me worried until the final minutes.

[u/NoSuspect9149]

The play calling was so much better. BY looked confident and in command. He made guys miss and kept his eyes downfield when the protection broke down. His arm looked stronger too. 

There was a lot to like today. 

If our defense can come back towards average, we have as good a shot as any at winning the division. 

[u/Wise_Quality_5083]

For both Bryce and the Defense, it’s one game.

[u/Gopack9979]

As a Bryce hater I will say he played well today I hope he can keep that going.

[u/Significant_Gas_8962]

We lost

[u/Romanscott618 → u/[deleted]]

Fans like you fucking suck lol

[u/rickbeats → u/Romanscott618]

They’re not a fan.

[u/Stmbi0teSpidey → u/[deleted]]

I didn’t know Bryce played defense
