Re: Who will wear #13 for the Bears in 2024?

Caleb is wearing #15 since he’s the next Patty Mahomes. Or since Patty went from #5 in college to #15 in the pros, we’re hitting the Uno Reverse. Caleb wore #13 in college, so we’re gona unretire #3 for him in the pros. Petty sure that aint happening unless they're going to unretire Bronco Nagurski...

Re: Bears sign C Coleman Shelton to 1yr $3M deal

Mason McCormick can play all IOL positions and is very athletic. I think he'd be a great day 3 pickup.

Re: Who will wear #13 for the Bears in 2024?

I'm voting for Keenan Allen, because he's the most experienced and highly paid player who would want that number. He can outbid CW. Tyler Scott will be happy to make some extra dough by taking another number. Hell, he should probably want to take another number to make everyone forget his 2023. It'...

Re: Justin Fields traded to Pittsburgh for conditional pick

Firstly, I'm feeling very let down and disappointed. Given that I am on record in support of trading Fields, I'm trying to understand why. Firstly, it's the very low return. If the announcement had been a 2nd rounder or even a swap from the 3rd to the 2nd plus Jf1, I would definitely feel differentl...

You could also say it's doing right by a rookie QB and setting him up for success-- something many complained we never did for Justin.

Re: Bears trade 4th rd pick to Chargers for WR Keenan Allen

I have mixed feelings here. On one hand, I'm not a huge fan of adding a 32 year old receiver with some injury history, paying him $23M (or whatever the amount ends up being) and then extending him until he's 35. But, I love the idea of setting up a rookie QB with an elite receiving corps, bringing i...

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 Q...

I'll tell you what I think: I think that if Williams turns into the high-quality, championship-winning, franchise QB that is his ceiling and he continues with his kinda radical, pro‐player, anti-establishment (somewhat uppity? ) approach to the business side of this league, he will end up far more r...

The word on the street is that the Bears don't seem to be actively looking to trade JF1. If this is true, here are three possible scenarios: 1. They realize the market is weak at the moment and will wait for a draft day trade opportunity or for something to happen in the off season. 2. They are read...
