2009 Chicago Bears offseason

[David]

I liked the part where he said that Royal was basically a KR/PR guy and Marshall was a 4th round pick who had played WR and safety in college. Pretty obvious what he was implying there. :grin:

Good stuff. I'm pretty amped for this season. We've got some issues, but what team doesn't? I want to see what Bear football looks like with an actual, without-question, franchise QB. Never seen that before.

 

I have a feeling you're going to find out that there's other talent on that offensive roster. Talent that just couldn't blossom because there was nobody to deliver the ball on time, in stride, with consistency.

Same. Although, on the flip side, I think Olin might be exposed for being the reason for so many dropped snaps. Can't blame the QB anymore.

[inari]

I'd be a lot more excited about Cutler if he didn't have such a damned awful number. 6? Awful.

[jersey cubs fan]

I'd like to raise a motion to have inari banned from Bears discussions.

[David]

Six is good. You got a problem with six? What?

[Soul]

6 has the virtue of not being 8. Which has the virtue of me not needing to hear that nonsense anymore.

[Guest]

Isn't "six" what a qb is trying to end up with on every drive?

[soapy]

I'd like to raise a motion to have inari banned from Bears discussions.

 

Seconded.

 

Now you apologize to Jay, Tomy.

It's not often a Seinfeld reference goes a couple hours here without being acknowledged. :x

It was quality, but I was too upset over the anti-Cutler talk to be entertained.

That article turned me on. Im ready for some football!

 

Urlacher wasn't horrible last year. Hard to be a bad MLB when your team is one of the best run Ds in the league. But it wasn't a Brian Urlacher year. If he get back to 2006-07 form, this D will be pretty good again. I can't wait for preseason games at least.

[David]

lol eli manning's contract

 

 

cutler is going to get PAID

[Z38Cubs]

These are not the jedi you're looking for.

Is he wearing a Cubs Believe Bracelet?

[David]

Doubt it... he's been wearing that a while...

Bowman is injured!?!?!

[Banedon]

Maybe it has something to do with diabetes?

[Banedon]

Bowman is injured!?!?!

 

Where you hearing that?

[Banedon]

Bowman is injured!?!?!

 

Where you hearing that?

 

ZachZaidman: Bowman strained hammy day to day

[Soul]

Sounds like he walked off under his own power.

 

I believe durability has always been a concern for him. Better get Graham the reps with the 1st team he needs to be ready if necessary.

[UMFan83]

Bowman is injured!?!?!

 

Where you hearing that?

 

yeah sorry should have elaborated. I heard it on the score where boers and berstein were mocking the great bears legend Zack bowman being injured.

[Banedon]

I'm not gonna stress over a day to day strained hammy.

[Banedon]

ZachZaidman: "Greg Olsen, I think, is a special football player," Smith said. "Everyday he does something that makes you look twice."

 

ZachZaidman: "Noticing him," said Smith about Rideau. "Juaquin Iglesias made some good catches today."

[Banedon]

Not hearing great things about Vasher.
