Another "ugly" win, but any of them is better than a loss. Chicago, for all its troubles, has been trending up lately, and NFCN divisional games are typically tough as hell.
No surprise that today's was stressful for all involved, it's par for the course in our division. I admit that I love and loathe that about the NFCN in equal measure.
Good Sam is better than anyone seemed to expect, though he does hold the ball as long as anyone and is determined to fire lasers to JJ while he's triple covered. I know that he's pushed to do so by Jefferson himself, but today showed reminders of why things like the "Randy Ratio" don't work nearly as well in reality as they do on stat sheets.
Our D was split seconds from several turnovers, all game long...so, I hope that is tightened further for the remaining games.
We definitely can play with anyone, and have a big home stand ahead. It looks very possible that we can turn our week 18 kittens rematch into a fight for the division AND the #1 seed. Gotta love it!
LET'S WREAK SOME FUGGIN' HAVOK, VIKINGS!!! SKOL!!!

How do other teams studs still make a big impact? JJs impact is seen in the others stats, but there has to be something that KOC is missing in the play designs for JJs role to be reduced to decoy, and with the other teams using 2 or more guys on JJ, there needs to be more wide open looks for the others, yet it still seems that most the time we are struggling. Is Darnold that slow at reading the D, or are our routes not taking advantage of the help teams are throwing at JJ often enough?
