Re: Justin Fields Megathread - A story of Lovers and Haters

What might make more sense, if they continue to clean up their cap mess, is the Chargers. Right now, Max Duggan is the only backup to Herbert. Justin could sit behind Herbert and get the benefit of being in Harbaugh's system with Greg Roman as his OC, while working on his timing issues with their QB...

Re: Bears sign RB D'Andre Swift to 3yr, $24M contract

Terrible move. Waste of money. Should have just drafted a back. I agree. This team has a terrible history lately of 'patching the tires' with free agents, rather than drafting and developing our own. Then when they get all these new wonderful toys off of other teams' rosters, the people running thi...

Re: Luke Getsy hired as Bears OC

Getsy is not even a halfway decent NFL OC. Stefanski managed to plug 4 different guys into his offense and make it work. Stats without context can present a completely false picture. Getsy's offenses were a hodge podge of randomness, with the exception of his incessant screens. Good luck to Pierce i...

Of all of the previous regime's players that they let go, EJ should have been at the top of the list.

Re: Eddie Jackson: Return on a smaller contract?

I was for this initially, but after watching him make half-assed attempts to strip the ball rather than tackle most of the season, I don't think you want that example around your young guys.

Re: Bears fire OC Luke Getsy, QB coach Andrew Jonoko

In our current state, Greg Roman does make a lot of sense to bring in. If he's good at two things, it's: 1., working with QB's that have similar skillsets to Justin Fields, and 2., getting fired when everyone realizes his offense sucks ass. So a great 1 year bridge OC before everyone gets fired. I'...

In an offense that has receivers running the same route on the same side of the field, providing multiple defenders in the area takeaway opportunities, it's a wonder there haven't been more turnovers per game.

Getsy's offensive offense is a mish-mash of random plays that does not make sensible use of his personnel. Not sure who makes that work. I'll be so glad when that guy is some other team's problem.
