With comeback victory in hand, Bears drop the ball – twice

From 2013 to 2014, he averaged just 9.5 total pressures; playing guard this season, he allowed just 16 over 17 games (including the playoffs). When Barkley was at his best, was in the fourth quarter, and that was when Chicago wideouts dropped seven balls. That massive contract becomes cuttable for the first time next season, it would cost the Bears only $2 million if they got rid of him, and the $14 million they would save would go a long way to keeping the impending free agent Alshon Jeffery and giving Kyle Fuller an extension.

“It was one of those things where multiple guys were out there saying, ‘Don’t let them in, ‘” Woodyard said. I think it’s just a matter of being out there more.

“He has been very consistent with his play”, Tennessee coach Mike Mularkey said. “Once I didn’t hear the crowd, I just got up in jubilation”. Marquess Wilson, it was his second game of the season.

Alabama’s defense still seems to have a wall erected at the goal line, and Jalen Hurts remains unflappable enough to shrug off mistakes. “That’s all you can ask for”, he said.

Titans quarterback Kerry Collins leads Tennessee in an aerial attack, completing 30-of-41 passes for 289 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions …

Trailing 27-7 entering the fourth quarter, Barkley engineered drives of 75 and 69 yards capped with touchdown passes of 8 yards to Wilson and 6 yards to Thompson, respectively, to cut the deficit to 27-21.

The Chicago Bears paid tribute to the World Series champion Cubs prior to Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans. The Colts, who should have Andrew Luck back next week, will go on the road to play the Jets on Monday Night Football. We’re excited to see what he does with us in another week. Obviously, we found ourselves down a little bit.

On the fumbled exchange between Barkley and running back Jordan Howard, center Cody Whitehall’s shotgun snap was off to the quarterback’s left, throwing off the timing of the play (which was to the right). Or rather, he would have hit him in the hands if Bellamy didn’t decide to jump up and try to catch the ball with his stomach for literally no reason. He is the third player in the Titans/Houston Oilers franchise history to throw at least 25 touchdown passes and the first since Warren Moon did it in 1990.

“When trying to stop him, we knew that he was a bounce-out rusher”.

Yeah I thought so, and that’s what made his performance on Sunday pleasantly surprising. Even better, their defense could have their best showing of 2016 against Barkley and this version of the Chicago offense.

Barkley threw two red zone interceptions in the game, as he finished 28-of-54 for 316 yards and 3 touchdowns. He also rushed for 46 yards on four attempts. It was a people will break into your house in order to leave you Chicago Bears tickets kind of days.

Matt Barkley’s stats don’t show how good he was in the game today. “You might catch a thousand passes at practice, but in the game, if you take your eye off the ball you might drop it”. He’s pretty fleet afoot.
