REACTION: Bears offense struggles in 19-13 loss to Texans | Bears postgame 2024 

Deja Vu..same thing last year and before that. I simply do not understand how Ryan Poles and Flus doesn't get that the offensive line is priority one especially the Center. Jim Harbaugh will reach the Superbowl before we ever do. At the very least Fields was bigger stronger and faster to get away from this horrific O-line.

Same garbage, different trashcan

Jaxon smith njigba warned us about Waldron

McCaskey Bears are clueless as always. Bears need a new owner to win.

I always said if the offense fails it's due to the OC. The OLine was no help but Waldron's playcalling was like a kid playing Madden.

2 of their top 3 picks next draft should be on oline

19 out of 20 Rookie QBs throw interceptions. I don't give a damn about him throwing Interceptions; As long as he is not afraid to throw it. Most Hall of Fame QBs started off throwing a bunch of Interceptions. He gotta learn what he can and Can Not do against NFL Defenses.

O line is awful

lmao, imagine passing on a swap of 1sts, two extra 1st rounders, plus a 2nd or a 3rd rounder, and some other lesser picks for caleb williams. the bears could have had marvin harrison Jr, and one of the best offensive lineman in this draft at 9, plus 2 extra first rounders and other picks, but instead they went with a dude that looked extremely mediocre any time he played a good defense for his entire college career. even going with daniels and all those extra picks seems worlds better. poles refusing to trade down, to take some dude that avg 171 yards on 52% completion percentage for his entire career vs top 25 defenses is going to go down as one of the biggest blunders of all time. so far, if caleb throws the ball more than 10 feet, there is an 8/10 chance that the ball sails 5 yards out of bounds and is entirely uncatchable, or it gets tipped or batted into the air. i dont think ive ever seen DJ moore look so mad after bad QB play, and the guys entire career has been a QB dumpster fire. in 3 to 5 years from now, not trading down is going to look as bad as the browns trading for watson.

So the GM that everyone praised in the off season for all the moves he made, didn’t address the real problem 😂😅

I'm disappointed with the play calling. I thought Waldron was an upgrade.

poles built a madden team - no idea how a gm can completely neglect the LOS on both sides of the ball. caleb will be fine though, played better and will continue to improve

The meatballs and Chicago media meatballs claimed a “generational QB” would overcome this. You all were fooled 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Never should have drafted Rome instead of top o lineman

Weve had this conversation already. The whole time Fields was here

damn. on the bright side i was happy to hear all the bears fans cheering in houston stadium

The miscommunications across the o line are because Nate Davis can't stay on the field consistently and there's no continuity, I'm ranking him up there with claypool as a terrible personnel decision.

Keep making excuses for Caleb just wish you did the same for Fields.

This comment section insane. It’s week 2 and Caleb did look better. Lmao you all are clowns

I've been watching the Bears since Sayers and Butkus played. Lots of money has been spent, and it is early in the season, but they are the same formulated Bears we've always seen. Awesome defense and an offensive offense. O-line can't run block, can't pass protect and the play calls did not help at all. Caleb's going to get hurt at this rate.

Im glad Olin called out Collinsworth bc it was making me mad all game

Could not be clearer how weak this offensive line is.

Williams is not it. Even when the pocket was good enough for him to throw the ball over throwing or under throwing. Miss DJ on multiple wide open plays. Bottom line he’s a one read QB. O Line😂. Nate Davis hit a lic on the Ryan Poles.

The biggest take away from Caleb today is that he is inaccurate on passes 15 yards or more. He had chances to make explosive plays but he was missing them. Cj Stroud had pressure on him just like Caleb but he made the downfield throws

Caleb sucks

😅😅😅😅😂😂😂 I knew it 'I' knew the bears were going to find a way to mess it up. Everyone said this kid had bust written all over him by week 6 he will have to be benched cos the Defense is top tier this year but his wild ball placement, really terrible accuracy and those wild throws in traffic coupled with a bad O-Line and no run game... This season will be brutal for the Bears.. Thankfully I got the Steelers but the Bears are like my ex girlfriend with large knockers, I am always down if she calls

The play calling is truly Pop Warner at best .

Waldron is not making adjustments

Drafting Rome as their 3rd wide out instead of a premier o lineman made no sense

I still cant believe we gave away a starting NFL qb for a 6th rounder.

O-Line is horrible 😡and I'd be looking for Eberflus and Waldron's replacement, ASAP!!! And i would be looking for an Offensive HC too. No more Defensive Head coaches!!! They need to go about this in Chicago in a different way!

williams is OVERRATED!!!! Waste of skin

Offense will struggle all yr. Wait till injuries hit. Will be all time low offense in bears history. Still no oline and oc has no clue.

You Bears fans didnt have this "our O-Line sucks' energy during the summsr, it was more 'look at our weapons, we're winning the North". How many TD's has your generational QB thrown?

I honestly thought Williams was much better despite the picks. The problem is the OL may be the worst in football. I mean it's absolutely garbage. Williams spent pretty much all of last season running for his life cause USC had the same problem. Not sure what they can do to fix it, but if they don't this could really mess him up.

I want to see Roschon Johnson out there 80% of the snaps blocking in the backfield. Dude hasn’t even seen the field this year and he’s our best blocking RB

An elite Bears defense. Now with 2 games in add to a potential generational QB with Oline protection, playcalling, QB transitional coaching. Other top rookie QBs trying to adjust (JT, Bo). Bears moved on from JF's 3yrs, but many fans will not.

They b gettin to many penalties. Fo sho. MAKE AMERICA TRUMPLESS AGAIN FRANKLIN 🤘🃏🎸🇺🇲🐻

Kahlil Herbert gets stronger as the game progresses and gets 4.5-6.0 yds per carry but they aren’t even giving him the ball to get first downs. I guess they want to see what Swift can do. I say put ‘em both in the game!

I'm not criticizing Caleb until they can establish some sort of running game and get at least average play from the offensive line. There's no QB in the league that could look good with what Caleb is working with.

Same ole same ole we look like a high school football team on offense we passed up OL and Jim harbaurgh

Texans fan you can't even say our head coach frist name right. Texans SWARM GO TEXANS

When will people realize that Eberflus is a average coach, who hires average coaches. They let Harbaugh get away...

Defense and special teams are excellent, Williams is all hype, never going to live up to the generational talent claim.

Swift is not effective between the tackles, especially with the Offensive Line getting manhandled

They had opportunities to draft a Great offensive lineman with that #9 pick but they went with receiver!!!!

Why don’t they swing pocket outside to get Caleb open

So tired of hearing "the Bears lose to...." every season

Thinking Caleb sucks. Meanwhile Fields winning hurts 😡

The Bears can't even block, meanwhile the team 3 hours to the North ran for almost 250 yards in 1 Half with Malik Willis at QB.

Olin should come back at Center, he’d still be better than what we have now. Good lord

Yeah, Justin Fields was a bum.

Fields to Moore was a top notch duo on offense but poles decided to break it up and now Williams and Moore are not working in tandem or on the same page now but it’s fixable! Did you see Moores facial expressions? He’s not used to this kind of offensive lethargy!!

BEARS O-LINE NEEDS HELP ASAP!!!

Can bears design a quick passing game and running game to help Caleb? See Commanders play calling. Although they have a better RB

I am so proud of Bill Murry for making a NFL team after such a long career in Hollywood.

Every offensive position player can help the OL block; but that does not negate the fact that the OL is Awful.

Caleb takes forever to throw. This isn't new information. It was clear from his college career. What is confusing is why they chose to draft him. The ability to make great passes is only meaningful when you can read the defense and get rid of the ball. They'd be far better off going with Bagent, who doesn't have as good an arm but is very smart, knows where trouble lies, gets rid of the ball quickly.

BUST METER

My contention has been the physical talent on the O lines across the league is probably very similar. But these guys don’t seem to know who do block. It’s been that way forever, thru coaching changes, personnel changes, QB changes, TE changes. What is causing this on this team specifically for so many years?

This team is not going to the playoffs

I didn't understand drafting a wide receiver with the 9th overall pick and a punter in the 4th round. They should have picked a stud offensive linesman with that 9th pick and a wideout in the 4th round. Picking a punter in the 4th round means they were PLANNING FOR FAILURE! I ask you, does it matter who the Saints' punter is? Not really. Their offensive possessions result in points, not punts. The Bears have been making the same mistake going back to Cutler. When he was acquired, they traded away the picks that could have been used to improve the O line. Congratulations, you now have a QB...who will be spending his time running for his life and scraping himself off the ground after taking big hits. Here we are again. The Bears draft Caleb Williams, but have him try to operate behind a lousy O line. It never works. This is no way to "develop" a quarterback.

You want Waldron to Max protect, move the pocket, boot, waggle? He can't, he runs a sideways offense. Run/pass behind or at the LOS, Seattle warned what he was, nobody listened. Another rookie QB getting ruined by incompetent coaching..

Get rid of offensive line coach

Play calling is trash. Protection is trash. Our running game is atrocious. Where is the Texas running back Johnson at? Roschon?? is more of a powerful in the middle type of running back. What we need is a David Montgomery to complement swift. Shane Waldron has to do a better job.

Only saw first half due to work but where's Kmet? Why are we feeding Carter, not your teams best player? Can't run getting hit in the backfield. 3rd and long, meh have 5 yard hitches and crap. Looks like d turned around in 2nd half. But Waldron looks stupid already. Once hired are coaches forced into partial lobotomies?

19 out of 20 Rookie QBs throw interceptions. I don't give a damn about him throwing Interceptions; As long as he is not afraid to throw it. Most Hall of Fame QBs started off throwing a bunch of Interceptions. He gotta learn what he can and Can Not do against NFL Defenses.

It has been clear for a long time now. It is still the same. The Bears overall philosophy is to not invest in the best offensive lineman available. Olin Kreutz says it best. I am happy to see Justin Fields doing better now, his accuracy was excellent in game 2...what a surprise! Wasn't Ryan Poles a lineman? I think his 'cost, cost, cost' philosophy is costing him now.

How can they put that oline on the field? What a joke

It’s not even just a problem you fix with doing max protection. Guys just can’t block. They’re completely whiffing on blocks, getting overpowered, double or even triple teaming one guy only for another guy to come through untouched on a stunt. They have no idea what they’re doing out there

Same talking points year after year. Same old story for this joke of an organization. Stop showing up to soldier field. Stop buying merchandise. Stop rewarding this family for mediocrity. That being said, they win that game with Fields.

They hired an OC too quickly and should have taken their time interviewing candidates. Now apparently we have another Getsy as our offensive coordinator!!

The blame in order: 1 oline, 2 Caleb, 3 OC. It was terrible all around..you can look past some of Williams mistakes because that Oline was so bad

So anybody besides me think that MHJ and Joel Ott would have been a better draft? Or, Jaden Daniel will win ROY with fewer weapons and a worse OLine?

STILL A YEAR OR 2 away?? 🤔🤔 HOW?? I thought it was Justin?? Last time us old Bers understood it was all Justin fault. Now look at y’all super quarterback, touchdownless 😂😂 I hope y’all suffer from doing that kid like that. 1 real weapon and a couple 3’s. Smh

Why is this OC coaching like a highschool. He has favorite player. Why is K. Herbert not getting any runs. We had a top running team last year with K. Herbert

How is it that a normie like me KNEW they didn’t do anything to improve the offensive line this offseason, yet the front office guys getting paid Millions didn’t do a damn thing to improve the offensive line? 🤔😑

Bears should go trade for someone right now on the Oline. We have plenty of assets and it’s defcom 4 we need HELP!!!

Player need to start realizing that all this limited practice that they have fought for is costing them. Practice is what makes you better! We should be practicing more not less!!

Mediocre Texans team. But Bears offensive line is pathetic. Gonna make your QB gun shy.

Every year the bears repeat the same mistakes and every year bears fans are convinced they just need xyz and think this is the year, this is the guy etc etc. At what point will everyone notice these patterns. The bears are the bears until proven otherwise, I’ll believe it when I see it.

I did not expect the Bears to win this game. Bears oline is aweful. Waldron is another problem. No run game.

Fire Poles, how with all that draft capital and high draft picks we still haven't fixed the OLine, this is a desecration of duty.

So tired of the Bears priorizing the defense. Just one time can we aim to be a top 5 offense and have a mediocre to bad defense. Just tired of seeing the same thing and expecting different results each decade

Saying the coach put it on Caleb's shoulders is bs they couldn't run and every throw was ez ffs

Fields would've at least run for one.

I think Flus' first challenge was, he was going to call a timeout anyway, so just throw the challenge flag to get it.

The bears spent all that money on the defensive line during the off-season but forgot about that sorry offensive line we had last season that carried over into this season

How about stop running to the outside in the damn shotgun. All week its been said the texan strength on the d line is on the edge and yet the bears run straight into it smh. Also, stop with the screens to the TEs!

Cheer up Bears fans. Could be worse. Y'all could be Panthers fans...😳

O LINE IS TRASH....DONT START MAKING EXCUSES . THEY COULD PICK UP A BLITZ TO SAVE THEIR LIVES

Everybody knows poles went the. Cheap route on the oline, and that has a lot to do with the way teams are attacking caleb.

Our offense scored 0 points last week. We got 7 against the Texans. That's improvement, Olin.

There’s a good reason Olin feels like he’s been talking about the OLine for 10 years…

Here we go again another year of football down the toilet.all the so called improvements and what have we gained

Never thought that olin would be the only one to hold poles accountable. Poles has been a goddamn idiot with the ol.

Call a Spade a Spade? How about that o line and missed blocks all over the damn field.

So are we gonna keep having the conversation that the o-line struggled, or are they gonna act ???

Just imagine, keep Justin Fields trade down for MHJ + starting LT + 1st or 2nd next year, vs. Draft Generational player 2/9 v top 25 college teams, then make excuses for Generational player. Lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂

Why does everyone seem to rave about our Oline coach. I think he stinks!
