I feel slimy for that move

So it’s basically a must win this last week for Me to make the playoffs. (“Playoffs?!?! Playoffs?!?!?) Turns out both my QBs are off. Looked to see who I could pick up and only one option - Aaron Rodgers. I don’t know if making the playoffs is worth it. If I don’t make the playoffs it’s going to fee...

Re: Thomas Brown: Interim Head Coach

Well I didn't realize that the Bears have hired a head coach from within only one time.

Who was this mystery man? None other than Abe Gibron.

That throw a cold glass of water on everything.

Man I really want to get backing into believing in this team, but man it's hard. 49ers have been hit hard by the injury bug, I think they are on RB27, so hopefully this can be something positive. As much as I'd like higher picks, I want CW and crew to start tasting wins to build themselves up. Bears...

Re: Tankathon 2024

How much did Waldron play into the OL “debacle”? Seems like they’ve improved. Upgrades are needed at a couple spots but it’s not like they need 5 new starters. OL play is not a strong suit for he to grade or comment on. That being said I did see something a while back that Waldron changed the block...

What are the chances that if we go outside the organization that the new HC keeps Brown to be his OC?

If Brown performs like many think he will, I'd love to see him back.

Ben Johnson - HC
