I agree there's some similarities with 12 as well. I'll add to your list: That was the year Marv and Jay asked for more "unscripted plays" out of Dalton...which led to 46 sacks despite having a pretty good line.
Some are saying that Burrow is causing some sacks for similar reasons this year.
I was at Molly Malone's in Covington with my Wife and Dad that day, eating some of the best wings of my life. Bar was packed with Bears fans who started out talking smack and quickly quieted down before leaving completely dejected.
Awesome day.
Tbh, I have no idea why we threw so much against the Jets. I want to say Palmer had around 40 attempts. We should've been riding Benson all game. Especially against those corners. Marv always had us throwing a ton in the playoffs.
Yeah, Palmer had 36 attempts that game. Bengals went into the 4th quarter down 21-7 and Benson ripped off a 47 yard TD run. Jets just suffocated them other than that.
