lmao

[Ryne Ween]

Dude the total team points is 19.5.

[Outshined_One]

Just buy some coatracks, put Bears gear on them, and stick them in the secondary. It can't be any worse than what they have now.

[gscool89]

Oh good

[Ryne Ween]

Cutler with another multiple int game.

[minnesotacubsfan]

It's hard to watch this team on a day I'm supposed to feel thankful

[Ryne Ween]

How many picks is this guy gonna throw this year?

[cubbyvirus00]

That last play sequence was typical Bears. What a disaster

[rawaction]

This O-Line is Jerry Angelo bad. Might want to double-check those PFF scores Emery

 

Went from bringing back all 5 guys from a good OL to needing a RT, C, LT and LG all within the next 2 offseason, the first 2 needed ASAP.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I'm thankful we're not going to make a stupid run to 9-7 and out.

We probably still will. But I doubt we have the coaching needed to beat Dallas/New Orleans

[JonJayCutler]

Down 14 when Cutler was playing well and his rating was well over 100, but because he throws a couple of meaningless picks, he's the sole reason they lost.

 

Some of the worst fans in the NFL, but nevertheless my own fault for reading Facebook.

I remember when people did that

Well that's likely to happen. No problem.

RT @Stareagle: Trestman seemed kind of hurt by the Lions catching passes: "We didn't see the drops that we had seen on film."

WHAT???

In fairness at least he knows when he'll need luck

You keep saying that despite the fact PFF hated Emery's biggest OL free agent signing.

[sneakypower]

and the guys they really liked are injured and the rest are rookies/unprovens

 

it's a really ignorant meme

[rawaction]

So, the Bears need:

 

2 safeties (could get away with 1 if Vereen takes a huge step forward)

2 LBs (could get away with 1 if they get an absolute stud LB somehow)

CB

RT

OC (can't assume DeLaPuente there when he's only played 3 games there and will wind up not playing 1/2 the season)

WR/KR (I don't think it's a big deal, but clearly they want a speedy guy who can return and stretch the field)

 

And that doesn't include depth needed at TE, DL, backup QB.

[WrigleyField 22]

The Bears need new coaching first and foremost.

I think DE is a more important need than just "depth" with questions on how good Houston will be when he returns and Allen is aging and middling (has he had a good game against a starter this year besides Matt Kalil who clearly shouldn't be starting?).

Post flu he's been a factor at least. Probably more than any defender, not that it's says much.

Yea I'm willing to keep an optimistic view after he can put some muscle back on- we're stuck with him anyways next year.

 

A dynamic pass rusher is basically a no brainier if available, but if there isn't one I think we can roll with the current DLine group as the back 7 is in much worse shape.

They are still gonna [expletive] this up and end up picking in the mid-late teens and not top 10, aren't they?

My thinking exactly. The Bears have too many other needs to go after a DE the year after getting 3 of them. Allen has been decent enough lately that u think he could give the Bears something next year provided he doesn't lose several pounds from an illness. Not too worried about Houston's knee. He should come back fine. And I think Washington and Bass have shown enough in flashes to be 4th and 5th DEs. Gonna have to wait a year on DE unless you have one fall in your lap.
