I know you mean this in a super positive way, but when I read posts like this my initial reaction always is "God damnit why do my fellow Bears fans love 7-3 games so fucking much?!?!?" I see more and more coming around to my life long dream of Super Duper Offense. My brother in arms @The ...

I never thought I'd see a Caleb Williams draft thread become a Cade McNown thread. https://i.imgflip.com/6y9qe0.jpg Dude...we're Bears fans. We are conditioned to dwell on the failures of the past, while lamenting our general lack of promise for the future. For most of us, we are now in uncharted w...

Apparently, Mr. McNown is doing just fine for himself. https://www.linkedin.com/in/cmcnown?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app The Carlyle Group is a big boy firm and if he’s an MD there, he’s not collecting food stamps. There IS life after foo...

He's going to take a year of development to be a 3 down DE. But like a lot of people have already said, he'll be a great 3rd down, "go get the QB" this year. One thing that was really intriguing to me was his length and power for a 245lbs DE. Watching some of his highlights, he was throwin...

Watching his "20 minutes of structure" highlights. Not sure if I've ever seen a QB that moves up and around in the pocket like he does. He just glides around, always with his eyes downfield. I also have to say, when he throws off of a clean platform (or sometimes when he doesn't) his deep ...

With DJ and Allen let’s just go with him getting 700 yards this year. If he averages 1100 yards per year for the remaining 4 years we are assured we have him (using the 5th year option) he breaks the all time yardage record for a Bears’ WR while on a rookie contract. Freaking sad that the bar is th...

I’ve been watching a lot of CW tape. Mostly from 2022. He gets into trouble with his hero passes. The jump passes, throwing across his body to the middle of the field, etc. but when he’s locked in, sliding around the pocket, and then throwing from a stable platform. Good Lord. He generates so much v...

Good God. That is so fucking pathetic.

With Allen, Moore, Odunze, and Kmet on the field. He should be able to throw for 130 yards blindfolded.

100%

But if I were Dominique Robinson, I'd start trying to figure out how to get better.

One other thing that Caleb Williams, Rome Odunze, and the re-vamped Bears offense will bring to the table next year. We no longer get the 5th string announcer and color analyst teams. It's only top tier for Chicago next year. LOL!

Ditka’s dictaphone wrote: ↑Sun Apr 28, 2024 7:08 am That Carolina trade last year, a parting gift from Lovie has absolutely turbo-charged the building of this team.

We have built a great roster and we still have 7 picks next draft

The Lovie Smith Texans' 2-point conversion will go down as the single greatest play in Bears history.

Your "Johnson" is "distinguished?" Mine's not. Mine's a cad, a dirty rotten scoundrel I constantly have to suppress. lol You want meatball? How's this--Caleb becomes the first rookie QB to win the Super Bowl. :welcome: :wave2: :banana: :headbang: :toast: But then, that could jus...

Or wife/girlfriend!

I don't know if Jones can play OG, but if he can then I'd keep him on the left and get Jenkins lined up next to Wright again. As it stands I don't see Jones playing inside as much as I can see either Wright or Amengadjie playing there. We have three guys drafted as OT all of whom can play OG. If Jo...

I really hope we don't use any of that draft capital to pay for in-season moves. I am now pretty bullish on the bears winning 11+ games, which will put us in the lower half of the draft. We want to be able to use that capital to ensure healthy (and affordable) roster turnover. We also want to be ab...

Before we crown his ass for the starting LT next year, let's remember he was playing against Ivy League talent. I seem to recall another promising Bears OL from the Ivy League ... what was his name? Ah yes - Dieter Eiselen, now with the Texans. Remember how excited some of us were? - https://i.make...

The funniest part about this thread is that Atlanta didn’t need to lose their 1st round position to help the Bears. They fucked that pick up all on their own.

I really thought this would be a fun exercise for people to let their meatball side out....but apparently not.

I'm impressed with anyone that got the first three. I had never heard of Kiran Amegadjie before this weekend, but watching his tape, I'm glad we drafted him.

Probably makes the Sheila happy as well.

She's a Chicagoan so she's probably already planning a Michigan Ave shopping trip.

She's also from Winnetka, so she's probably marrying down in class and income.

It's Chicago and I don't even think it's that close. I know everyone on this board is of course partial to Chicago, but it's really not close. Funny thing, for me personally, I would put Seattle at #2, but they aren't even in the list. Of those that are on the list, I would rank the 49ers 2nd, alth...

Your starting 2025 LT ladies and gentleman.

That's right! It's time for the Post NFL Draft Meatball Fan Overreaction thread. Many NFL pundits gave the Bears an A on their draft this year, and how could they not. Ryan Poles knocked it out of the park. If we count Keenan Allen as part of the draft class, then it truly was franchise altering. W...

That's also why no one listens to that idiot but three months out of the year, only to confirm that he was wrong on just about everything.

Someone needs to create a bear claw hand with painted nails t-shirt. It will sell out in 5 minutes.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GLUcjcQXcAAMV8w?format=jpg&name=900x900 Not quite up to Poles' normal RAS standard, but I'd imagine a bit of work in the gym will boost it up. it's probably the reason he lasted as long as he did. Crosby, who he is sometimes compared to, had a 9.6 RAS. His agility sc...

It's the unsexiest pick ever, but it really speaks to Poles' patient, methodical approach to building this team. I dont think Braxton showed quite as much growth in year 2 as Bears brass would have liked to see (although I blame some factors beyond his control on that). This is the fire under Braxt...

After watching a bunch of this kid since he was picked, I too think he’s the LT of the future. I hate saying that because I love Braxton, but this kid looks like the goods. I've been watching a lot of his tape and he plays so much bigger than 6'5". His arms are crazy long. DE's can't even get ...

I don't know if it will put me to sleep, but I understand what you're saying Marshall. I also expect Poles to evaluate the team 4-5 games into the 2024 season, and look to use some of his draft capital to shore up weak spots. I do expect that Poles will continue looking for OL value in the 2nd and 3...
