One former Bears QB taking a look at the play of another former Bears QB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8IVMrGnmao Fields threw a couple of throws running to his left that weren't dissimilar to those we've drooled over his successor in Chicago making. He's also still having to cope with wayward ...

4th Rounder is what ultimately matters. Now onto the cherrypicked stats! QB Rating doesn't matter at all - honestly if a person was working in Football and they went up to a decision-maker and tried to make a serious point referencing QB Rating - you'd probably have their keys to the building befor...

It bothers me to no end that this game is considered one of our "home games". I absolutely, positively, 100% hate it. It reduces our probability of a win throwing away a home game for a neutral field game, we have been winning at home since the middle of last year. Weird things seem to ha...

I mean you did lead with we should have him for 10+ Years - but yeah Cap Wise it shouldn't be the end of the world (Not quite the same as "it wouldn't make any difference at all "- especially because we will be talking about Caleb's 2nd Contract then and there will be considerably less wi...

Trey is on the last year of his deal

The Chiefs dealt a 3rd Rounder (IIRC) for K Toney - that should make a second for Allen look like Childs Play

So many great thoughts...points in this thread.... In the end, whatever is best for the team. I will admit, my answer before Hard Knocks would have been I trust Poles - But hanging on to Velus has really back fired and Keenan being hurt hasn't helped...Also... any so called chemistry isn't anywhere...

That 4th rounder is looking like darn near a lock right now. Fields already started 4 games and is playing so well I can't imagine they'd change to Russ. Here's his stat line after 4 weeks: 77/109 Comp/PA Comp% - 70.6% which ranks 7th in the NFL 6 Total TD's against just 1 Turnover (1 turnover in 4...

That's my bad on the one stat - I was incorrect

It's actually 4 Fumbles not 3.

Bears 30
Panthers 15

I keep thinking he's Greg Olsen's little brother

ON the Cap Room - I Note the following: 1) You don't have to spend it all - you Can just Carry that forward (which is probably a wise course of action) 2) There aren't many FAs to spend it on. I think the areas right now that are shaping up to have Good FA crops - WR and S - aren't where we will be ...

Honestly not sure. The KC 2nd is gonna be 28th or later in the round so alot more like a 3rd. I'm looking at it as if Poles plays his cards right and let's Keenan walk, we can still comp a 5th rounder. Is there really much likelihood Poles would get a R5 if he doesn't re-sign Allen? That's the maxi...

Will he be worth paying him three years from now? Supposedly Dickerson at Seattle is the highest paid punter at a little under $4M/yr that he signed in 2020. What kind of contract will Tory Terrific demand in 2026 - $8M/yr? I guess we'll see how things shake out, but with the way the kickoff has ch...

I think nearly all of us were incredibly excited by the prospect of a good rookie QB who had great weapons, a decent offensive line and a new OC with decent pedigree (Geno resurgence etc.). Seeing the offensive line implode and a few other pieces misfire has been pretty tough. But what I think make...

Stop bringing logic and reason into it. Thems blocking words And posts like this are unnecessary. They are only meant to aggravate and rile posters up. We don't have to do that The posts could just be better and more well thought out too. It is allowed. The initial foolhardiness ALSO would have a t...

I don't think it is actually I like Montgomery - I would have brought him back (*most likely) This isn't the norm though. He had 16 Receptions last year And he averaged 39 receptions a year in Chicago with a high of 54. The fact that it was a catch is irrelevant anyway. The "vintage" comm...

Grizzled was there for Game 1 - they should invite him back

Boom!!!!!!!!!!! Blowing you clowns out of the water!!!!!!!!! At midseason form by week 3!!!!!!!!!

I've gained ground on you. Like the Bears starts to the season, my predictions take time to gel.

Mine are more like Jenkins or Johnny Cash covering NIN......

2. Even if we do want to worry about it, why would we worry at all about the cost of a Punter? They have such a low cap impact he could be the highest paid P in the league and it wouldn't make any difference at all to our cap situation. And be worth more then paying a damn running back Hurricane - ...

Huh. Humans are curious creatures. It’s fascinating that anyone could have watched Verse play yesterday and push back on the idea that he’d be good to have here. Just defies all logic. I like Taylor but damn if Verse didn’t look downright dominant out there. I honestly didn’t expect any push back o...

Plus, statistically, Taylor is playing as well as Verse is. Verse tossed your boy around like a rag doll, and Brax is no rag doll. I have no idea what his stats are, but I know a hoss when I see one and Verse looks like that dude to me. Taylor is a nice addition but he's not tossing anyone around, ...

Otherwise Keenan Allen is of more benefit to the Bears and CW development.

Say they offer a 2nd Rounder - Straight Up

What say you?

Until KC loses their secret weapons, REF1 REF2 REF3, I think they’ll be fine. ANOTHER late game questionable flag influenced their last game against the Chargers. It’s wild - every single week now. This is a terrible take. Can you actually imagine Poles saying anything so nonsensical? I cannot

I go Jenkins - I dont think he's had a Rib Injury before - it's hard finding new parts of him to be injured

I think Week 7 will be either Spleen or Islets of Langerhans

Im not touching that - don't want to get yelled at

I am glad Bell is back - though it probably signifies little
