Post-World War 2 British Prime Minister Clement Attlee - well that's a comparison I could never have imagined seeing on a Bears forum!

I read about his torn ACL in practice while I was getting a Bears tattoo, lol. We definitely need to know about this Bears tattoo UOK.

I think that's "dicks course" @RichH55.

Poles denied sending Keenan Allen to Williams' Pro Day and said it was Allen who'd decided to go and of course being a former Charger Allen lives locally. As for an extension, Poles also stated he would like to agree a new deal but he also said he and his team like to work though player extensions i...

I wasn't sure where to post this article from Next Gen Stats, but this thread is as good as any given the debate around this #9 pick is focused primarily on WR vs Edge and they're two of the positions that get mentioned.

I like that for the first time I can remember they gave the players names. Seems like in the past sometimes they would just have photos and I'd go "who's that guy?" The program's voluntary at this stage and I haven't seen any reports on attendance or absences so I was trying to figure out...

Getting arrested for driving while intoxicated might nix that (https://www.nfl.com/news/top-dt-prospec ... i-in-texas).

Poles seems to place a lot of stock in character.

You might get a guy day 2 but not so much after that. A couple of your examples have yet to show they're elite. And unless your definition of elite differs from mine (and it seems to) a few good years doesn't make any player elite. It takes an entire career to do that. Nacua has been in the league ...
