AFI's "Decemberunderground" is a top-to-bottom banger. Gets forgotten when so many adore "Sing the Sorrow," understandably.

Brief #Bears Thread about last night (mute, my peoples, mute!): The Bears being on Prime was really nice. I love being able to watch a game knowing that barring an internet outage, I'll be able to watch in great quality. I can't get Fox too well OTA so I'm used to artifacting/etc. What a game.

This was the first Bears game since the Packers playoff win where I was actively stressed out, pacing my living room, shouting expletives at my TV, etc. I don't like that feeling, but the team is good, they're competitive. One championship before I die, please. Just one is all I need.

Only 2 Bears games in the next 30 days. Should be good for the health of the team overall, but also means I can enjoy most of my November without the Bears being an overly large part of it. It's my favorite month of the year. Having football be background noise instead of the feature is welcome.

It's amazing to see a Bears team with a quarterback, like an actual quarterback. I've never seen this before. Even in the Cutler days, he was still only kind of a quarterback. Caleb is a full stop top 3 QB in the league right now. Don't know what to do with that information besides revel in it.

Me, a 100% non-handy person who can barely use a screwdriver: I need to relax. I think I'll watch this Swedish guy restore a 100+ year old manufacturing part

Make sure to put a safety patch on the back of your clothes while out trick or treating.

Act now! The number of pumpkins that will accomodate your punch bowl is shrinking fast.

Bears thread, folks. Sam Rousch has a penalty less than three minutes into the game! Rookie continues to have a record debut.

Penalties, penalties. So many penalties.

What a wild-ass game. The Bears are almost certainly going to win now, but they made this game infinitely more stressful than it needed to be. Kyler Gordon is back, and how. Roschon Johnson would've had a stellar game if not for a very bad fumble. Coaches will be in hell during film review.

The penalties are maddening. This is clearly a very touchy official crew, but gotta hate letting that dictate field position as much as it has.

Gervon Dexter getting a sack stings.

Swift does it again. Some redemption after being denied the last couple weeks in goal line scenario. Excellent cherry on top for what’s been a fairly sloppy Bears half that hasn’t resulted in anything but stout play. Bad officiating hasn’t held them back.

Penix kinda sucks. But Tua is exponentially worse.

That’s a ticky-tack call. Boo.

WHY THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Welcome back, Trapilo!

Dammit, Trapilo.

I can’t wait for the day that it happens. The guy’s voice is poison.

Thomas is going left and right again. Somebody’s gotta break him of that. It’s not going to work in the NFL.

And a missed long FG. Bears need to resume finishing drives or this one will become close almost immediately.

What a catch by Dotson. Gotta tip your cap. Coverage wasn’t bad. Throw and snag were perfect.

Zaccheus demonstrating why the Bears were fine letting him walk.

Damn, thought Taylor pinpointed that punt. Inches off.

Ryan Pace and Ian Cunningham watching this one I’m sure, and hopefully they both turn the game off early.

Noah Sewell when healthy is a nice addition. But “when healthy” is the tricky part.

I hate that it’s called the “red area.” Sounds like something that needs a medicated ointment.

Swift gets right in, far cry from other weeks with the backups in.

Those are the routes and catches we’ve expected Odunze to make. Excellent.

Caleb is carving out there. Weapons are weapon-ing.

Good start for the defense. More points, yeah?

Lucky that wasn’t a turnover.

Delay of Game? Really?

What a catch by Loveland! I cut him from my fantasy team and naturally he’s going to go off today.
