So much for having the fewest sacks allowed since their Super Bowl season of 2006. Since Chase Daniel was inserted into the starting lineup for the Chicago Bears these last two games https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Kyle-Long-Jersey , he has been sacked nine times. It’s not all on him, although the athletic Mitchell Trubisky does give the pass protection a boost when he’s in the game. Daniel's sack percentage is almost double Trubisky’s (10.6% to 5.6%), but when looking at Daniel I think it’s fair to point out that even though he’s a nine year veteran, he’s technically inexperienced with his pocket presence at just four career starts. All things considered though, Daniel is a good number two quarterback. Let’s see where 2018 stacks up historically...Sackwatch after 12 games2010 - 45 Martz2011 - 34 Martz2012 - 36 Tice2013 - 21 Trestman2014 - 30 Trestman2015 - 20 Gase2016 - 23 - Loggains2017 - 29 - Loggains2018 - 28 NagySack 24 - Second Quarter 1:39 - B.J. HillWe’re the Bears trying to set up a middle screen? The player that gets the sack, defensive tackle B.J. Hill (#95), receives a token block from left guard James Daniels and then he’s in hot pursuit of the QB. Hill splits the B-Gap with ease, and Daniels heads up field so quickly, that I’m assuming the intended receiver was running back Tarik Cohen who snuck through the line. Center Cody Whitehair also blocked for a split second before peeling off to block for a screen. It looked to me like a fake bubble screen to the left, with a middle screen back to Cohen, but it didn’t fool the Giants. I can’t fault Daniels Tom Waddle Color Rush Jersey , as he was doing his job. I can’t fault Daniel either, because Hill was on him so quickly and there wasn’t a clean throwing lane. This good play by the Giants leads me to give this to Sacks Happen. Sack 25 - Third Quarter 1:22 - B.J. HillHill gets his second sack in a row, and this time he split right guard Bryan Witzmann and center Whitehair. Hill got Witzmann with the stutter-step juke to the outside before shooting back through the A-Gap. Witzmann failed to move his feet after falling for the fake and Whitehair was more concerned with his other A-Gap. Whitehair tried to stay strong and protect both gaps, but by doing so he wasn’t strong enough to help to his right.I’m splitting the sack allowed between Whitehair and Witzmann.Sack 26 - Fourth Quarter 15:00 - Olivier VernonThis was a third and 11, so that could have gone into Daniel’s reasoning for not throwing it away once he escaped the pocket. I’d still rather he chuck it away than eat the sack and lose yardage in a close game though. The Giants overloaded the blitz on Chicago’s left side and the Bears did a good job picking it up initially. Check out Jordan Howard’s blitz pickup coming from the right side back to the left.Even right tackle Bobby Massie stayed home after pinching to his left and he cleaned up a Giant scraping towards him. But Daniel breaking out of the pocket led to the defenders getting better angles to pursue, which is why Massie had a hard time staying with his block. Daniel didn’t have anywhere to go with the ball, and he was forced to scramble. It did look like he was about to uncork a pass to Allen Robinson II after stepping up in the pocket, but Robinson stumbled a bit out of his break and Daniel pulled it back. Hindsight tells us he probably could have thrown it as Robinson maintained his route. But as for the sack, Giant linebacker Olivier Vernon (#54) started out over Leno (LT), but ended up working all the way down the line until he ended up being blocked by Witzmann (RG). Vernon hustled his way into the sack, but Witzmann was leaning on him a bit too much which caused him to get off balance. With that being said Sam Acho Jersey , the pass pro held for 3 seconds and Daniel had no where to throw. I hate to give another to Sacks Happpen, but that’s what I’m doing. Sack 27 - Fourth Quarter 1:07 - B.J. HillAnother of the dreaded 0 yard sacks. I loathe them. The Giants had some good coverage on this play, so Daniel tried to escape up the middle. But if you ask me, he tried to escape too early. The pass pro held up. Massie and Witzmann switched on the stunt happening in front of them, as did Leno and Daniels on the left side. The Giants ran a double EX stunt, which means that the defensive end goes inside first with the defensive tackle going around him to the outside. I’ve also seem this called an E-T stunt. Daniel seemed to get spooked at the Giant falling in front of him, and he took his eyes off his receivers. Had Daniel maintained his composure he could have stayed in the pocket and scanned downfield a tick longer before escaping to his left. I’m pinning this one on Daniel. Sack 28 - Overtime 3:18 - Olivier VernonThis one is the easiest of all to diagnose. Vernon simply beats Leno around the edge and swipes the ball out of Daniel’s hand. Leno’s angle on his kick step was a little too flat and he couldn’t catch up with Vernon. Leno tried to push him past his QB, but Vernon got his hand on the ball when Daniel cocked to throw.

(AP) — Coach Matt Nagy is saving the big celebrations for later.He opted instead to spend "quality time" at home with his four sons, ate sushi, consumed "one beverage" and kept his eyes on the prizes still out there after the Chicago Bears clinched the NFC North.One he would love https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Devin-Hester-Jersey , though it probably won't come gift-wrapped: A first-round bye. "You wanna ask me if I want the first-round bye, or the No. 1 seed? Absolutely, give it to me right now," he said.The Bears completed their worst-to-first turnaround by securing their first division title and playoff appearance in eight years.Even better, they did it by beating Aaron Rodgers and the rival Green Bay Packers on Sunday. But if they're going to land a top-two seed and first-round bye, they still have some climbing to do.The Bears are third in the NFC behind the South champion New Orleans Saints and West champion Los Angeles Rams with two games to play. They visit San Francisco this week before closing the regular season at Minnesota."It's OK to celebrate and enjoy last night and yesterday," Nagy said on Monday. "But we have bigger things that we're trying to achieve. And I think that's going to be the biggest challenge for us where we're at is understanding, OK, we accomplished a good goal but that's not enough."The Bears (10-4) simply need a strong finish and some help.They trail New Orleans (12-2) by two games after the Saints beat Carolina 12-9 on Monday night and are one back of the Rams (11-3), though Chicago defeated Los Angeles on Dec. 9. The Bears are also two games up on NFC East leader Dallas."There's the ability for us to be, basically Danny Trevathan Color Rush Jersey , four different seeds," Nagy said. "Some are slimmer than others. But take that into account, it makes it easy. You go play, and you play to win and nothing changes. You literally control what you can control."The way things play out this week could determine whether Nagy keeps his foot on the gas or rests players — particularly those who are banged up — when the Bears visit Minnesota. But if seeds are at stake heading into the regular-season finale, he likely will go full speed."Unless you're locked in and you can't move, then you have to decide," Nagy said. "To me that's when you have to decide what you want to do. But right now, we have to win."Simply being in this position is a welcomed change for Chicago.The drought between playoff appearances claimed three coaches and led to shrinking crowds at Soldier Field."This was for the fans, this was for the organization and we are glad that we were able to do it," cornerback Prince Amukamara said.With the Bears winning the North, at least one NFL team in 15 of the past 16 seasons has finished in first place in its division the season after finishing last or tied for last place.Nagy is Chicago's first rookie coach with 10 wins since George Halas in 1920 Cody Whitehair Jersey , when the franchise was in its inaugural season. With a 7-1 record at Soldier Field, Chicago matched its home win total over three seasons under former coach John Fox.But as good as that all sounds, the Bears want more."It hasn't happened yet," star pass rusher Khalil Mack said. "We just got the NFC North. We got that title so far. We want to get this push. We can't really get caught up in all of that. We have two more games we have to win."NOTES: Though both players were still being evaluated, Nagy said he doesn't think the injuries to S Eddie Jackson (sprained right ankle) and LB Aaron Lynch (elbow) are season-ending. Jackson picked off a tipped pass intended for Jimmy Graham at the goal line late in Sunday's game, then had to be helped off the field when his leg bent awkwardly as he tried to slide on the return. That play also ended Aaron Rodgers' NFL-record streak of 402 attempts without an interception. Lynch walked off the field clutching his right arm after he was hurt fighting a block on a run by Jamaal Williams in the third quarter.
