This thread is going to drive @IE batshit. I love it. LOL. J/K.

Can he run block?

Lol.

Chet From Oak Park will shit himself with glee if this trade goes down.

DATS BEERS FOOTBALL!!!! SMASH MOUT!!!! RIGHT IN DA KISSER!!!!

Bears get: RB Jonathan Taylor Colts get: 2024 second-round pick, 2024 third-rounder, WR Velus Jones Jr. Colts fans might not be thrilled at getting two Day Two picks in exchange for maybe the NFL's best pure runner when healthy. But as much as team owner Jim Irsay would like to sell Taylor as Chris...

@IE Unless if JF1 implodes this year there is no way Poles moves on. Expecting Allen and Hurts level production also implies he has a supporting cast on that level. That means the defense has to step up too. The opportunity cost of moving on from JF1 is staggering. 3 years lost plus the draft picks...

Damn, and I had that one down too. :sad: Is There Anybody Out There who doesn’t agree on Pink Floyd? If so they either don’t have a Pulse or they must be Animals who have banged their head against The Wall until Echoes like the Delicate Sound of Thunder are running around their brain causing a Mome...

HisRoyalSweetness I think the Trey Lance mumbo jumbo is just like the mumbo jumbo for Jonathan Taylor. It’s August. Things are going well and it looks promising so there’s nothing to bitch about. So now we pivot to batshit crazy trades. Don’t get me wrong I love it, but let’s not take things too fa...

So I've gone through a bunch of video of his game against the Colts. What have we always screamed to the rafters about regarding some of our previous QB's. Throw with anticipation and timing. Five step drop? Know where you are going with the ball based on coverage, hit your back foot, and let the b...

Expected cost is too high, a couple of 2nds, maybe a 3rd and a 4th. Besides, who is excited to see what Roschon does this year along with Herbert? I'm not paying that price in 1,000 years. That's substantially more than it would've cost to draft Bijan Robinson this year. I'll take the RB by committ...

Remember when Shanahan and Lynch were smart? The decision of SF giving away that much draft capital to leapfrog the Bears to choose Trey Lance over Justin Fields will become stuff of NFL legend. Sort of like the Blazers taking Sam Bowie in 1984. In 2026 teams will be like, "Hey at least our GM...

Does it strike anybody else as odd that Tevin Jenkins goes down with a weird calf strain that's supposed to take up to six weeks to heal? What's up with that? And then as soon as that happens, Patrick comes back in time to play center. And all of this just happens to coincide with Whitehair having ...

Am I the only one tearing up? Nope. Moments like this hit close to home for me because I had an older friend that I knew for over ten years and he bled Cubbie blue like you wouldn’t believe. He died of colon cancer the year before the Cubs won it all and I cried like a baby when they did it because...

Regarding meandering thoughts…. I’ve been pondering our red zone packages this year. This is the most excited I’ve been about that since the halcyon days of my buddy Smokin’ Jay. Oodles of big targets. Claypool. Kmet. Lewis. Legit star. DJ Moore A potential pounder with RoJo. JF1 can sneak. Then of ...

Remember when Shanahan and Lynch were smart? They almost made it to the SB anyway and have built a pretty solid team, despite the QB situation. I'd rather have their roster today than ours, but the arrow is really pointing up here and I don't know that we'll be saying the same thing in a year or tw...

Well, I guess that they'd be in a position to criticize his ball and sack on a "T-Bag."

With a nickname like T-Bags his TD dance writes itself doesn't it?

I don’t consider T-Bags a legit QB until either Orlovsky or O’Sullivan criticize his feet, balls or sacks. Hey now! Someone has to play the role of designated 3rd string hacks. ;) These guys remind me of guitar players who go to a show, watch the guitarist on stage pull off a nifty solo, then look ...

That’s nonsensical and unrelated to the bigger point of not putting a franchise WR1 at unnecessary risk.

If Moore returns punts then Flus should be fired.

Apparently, Trey Lance is on the outs in SF: ost See new Tweets Conversation Ian Rapoport @RapSheet #49ers QB Sam Darnold was named the team’s No. 2 QB, per me and @TomPelissero . He’ll be the backup to Brock Purdy to begin the season. This further puts the future of former No. 3 overall pick Trey ...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xll0VOsiE84&ab_channel=IsaacTheurer The video clip game is strong in this one. But I do think the clip of them bashing in the non-dented quarter panel would have been an even better choice (I tried to find it but couldn't just that, but it's at the 2:10 mark of t...

When was the last time we all agreed on something? Pink Floyd doesn’t count. Something Bears related.

I don’t consider T-Bags a legit QB until either Orlovsky or O’Sullivan criticize his feet, balls or sacks.

https://youtu.be/GIGYLBVjYZA One of my favorites growing up. Remember watching it with my dad. Recently I got rearended while I was a red light.

It'll be interesting to see how Eberflus' ball busting works over the course of the entire season. Amongst the more Analytics driven teams, there's a big movement to "practice smarter, not harder" and kind of the polar opposite of what we're seeing here in Chicago. The Rams were pretty ea...

Sports Mockery isn't alone on the Bears being a possible destination for Taylor but at least they say "The logic doesn't add up". Colts grant RB Jonathan Taylor permission to seek trade Nick Shook Around The NFL Writer ... Here are four teams that could be potential Taylor suitors: Miami ...

I get it. It’s August. We all gotta be a combination of bored and excited like a week before Christmas. But this is batshit. This article, yes Sports Mockery I know, has us as a favorite to trade for Jonathan Taylor. I mean unless if this is a garage sale price. A fifth would be the highest. There’s...

Finally somebody in the media with a brain.

10-7 with a Wild Card including two wins over the Packers.

Then Poles reloads the gun with two firsts (including a Top 5 from Carolina) and a shit ton of cap room and we go to the Conference Finals in the 2024 season.

Kyle long is not the right comparison. Long started all but ONE game his first three years - 47 out of 48 games. Columbo in his first three years appeared in 23 games and started 7. So he too is not a perfect example, but I think it's a better comparison as his injuries resulted in him missing subs...
