Re: Caleb Williams News and Rumor thread
People seem to be taking Caleb's breakthrough stance on sharing his personal medical information pretty seriously. There's a lot of "who does this uppity, arrogant whatever think he is?" vibe going around... I think it's fascinating. The NIL money, no agent, limited medical testing, his ow...

Re: Bears New Stadium Nonsense Repository
Nice one Docc - - not sure what prompted it, maybe some nostalgia on the lakefront ?
If the Bears can get a modern stadium in the city, on the lakefront, that would be preferred.

Re: Some Free Agent ideas, your thoughts?
The Bears don't have a lot of obvious holes on their roster. On offense it's a Center and WR. On defense it's DL and S. I expect Poles to sign players for all these during free agency so that he can then go BPA in the draft. He'll probably spend relatively big on one or two but certainly not all fo...

Re: JJ McCarthy pushing the top 3 QBs?
I like winners and JJ seems to have that. I would only, maybe accept that pick if it were a bonus 2nd rounder following a #1 trade down in which we grab a haul of picks including a 2nd rounder which we use on JJ as a back up to Justin. In that scenario you let JJ develop on the bench next year while...

When given a chance to comment on Fields, Warren responded with a diplomatic string of niceties. When asked directly if Justin &...

Biggs getting upset at people having a different opinion is elite lack of self awareness. He’s a sports writer for fucks sake, questioning Bears players and coaches is literally his job.

Let's assume that Brad Biggs is right and drafting a new QB at 1.01 is a done deal. In that scenario, the exceptionally strong sentiment from so many current and former coaches, players, "insiders," pundits and NFL personalities about why the Bears should stick with JF1 should be the smoke...

Seems to be some weird inconsistencies in regards to the value of Justin Fields ... those who want him traded seem to also put a high value on what the Bears might get for him ... so if he actually is talented enough to be worth that much, then why would he need to be traded?

Assuming the Bears keep Fields and trade down, the Raiders make a ton of sense…and Vegas is one of the teams that Williams has stated that he’d like to play for.

Re: WK 18 // Bears (7-9) @ Packers (8-8)
Bad as the Defense played today, they still only gave up 17 points on the road to one of the best coached, hottest offenses in the league.
In today's NFL, you're not going to win games if your offense can't produce at least one fucking touchdown.
