Low then high, combined with matador blocks. They're testing him. Lol

Re: Velus now a lock?

This is a super stretch. And sort of a baseless theory. The guy has been returning kicks and catching balls for a LONG time - at two big time colleges and enough to get into the NFL and do it THERE. He didn't have any problem fielding the ball in the preseason - it bounced short, unexpectedly (they...

Re: Preseason Week 3 // Bears vs. Bills

I mean seriously he's taking 2nd team reps to ramp him up, and also of course prove further what is obvious. The talk of cutting Bagent is over. He looks better than Fields today for crissake. He'd have more completions if guys could catch a ball that hits them in both hands (how many dropped... 3-4...

Re: Preseason Week 3 // Bears vs. Bills

T-Bags converts 4th down. He plays with no fear. He looks calm back there. He looks as calm as Aaron Rodgers out there. Not the throwing skills it would be crazy to say that. But the poise. It's the little things. This game is amazingly slow for him given the circumstances. Like his little fake on ...

I think its true that some guys have better vision - looking up into the sky - than other guys. Maybe good eyes and good hands sorta go together.

Re: Whitehair's Hand Injury, other meandering thoughts

Carter is a perfect example of why I tend to defer to this regime and their decisions around the Oline. Carter emerging as a legit starter would make TWO NFL starters that Poles & team picked in the 5th round and beyond last year. Put Kramer in there and then it would be THREE (and I definitely ...

Pettis cannot be brought back this season. Oh - it is THAT sort of IR? I kind of have a soft spot for the guy and wish they'd keep him over ESB. Pettis is a really good blocker, and a sneaky good WR/route runner. He must really be hurt. Conspiracy theory: They like him and didn't want to cut him an...

The cut Velus meme was always crowd-funded ignorance and not based on anything real. :) Make no mistake - they LOVE the guy.

Re: Injuries Galore: 2023 thread

OK cool they dry-docked Pettis to IR. So that brings the WR keeper to 6 max. I personally think EQ is easy to drop because of Lewis and his blocking. And all the Bear WRs are decent blockers.

I'm in favor of keeping PJ for sure because I do think the veteran presence does add. But I like Bagent playing the other team's QB a...

NBC Sports is reporting that Fields will start on Saturday. Normally I'd be in favor of this, but given the number of injuries on the OL I'm not sure this is a smart move.
