  1. If, and this is the biggest if, the Bears get the HC and OC correct, Caleb will dwarf Daniels in 2025. He'll dwarf Nix, Maye as well. Daniels will go the way of Stroud and regress in 2025 while Caleb ascends.
  2. Bears with an offensive line composed of 2 guys off the street were able to roll up yards on them. They've got to bank on out scoring teams, usually, that MO doesn't work in the playoffs.
  3. The Jeff Kent porn-stache?
  4. If I were a Lions fan and concerned about the NFC #1 seed/winning the NFC North, I'd be a little nervous about the possibility of the Bears getting their horsefeathers together and winning this game. Chances are they won't get their horsefeathers together but, It's happened before in the NFL and will happen again maybe, this game.
  5. Rather, than looks for ways to objectify the calling balls and strikes let's go with the Golden At-Bat. Such beyond stupid horsefeathers.
  6. This plus attention to the OL and DL, most of the pieces to succeed are in place, other than Caleb finishing on positive note this season is a wash. There's no reason they can't win double digit games next season.
  7. Everything is under a microscope because of this horsefeathered up season, I would venture to say 90% of guys who have been beaten up would say such a thing. Additionally, the media is looking to dump all over the Bears, anything and everything negative, just keep kicking them while their down. I'm going to give DJ a pass. I do agree about forfeiting.
  8. Probably the medicals coupled with the Marlins having a unreasonably high price tag, good, he wasn't worth Cassie or Alcantara.
  9. I've a prediction regarding the Vikings - they'll lose a big or playoff game on a blocked punt. Our lower than dirt Bears managed to block one and came close another time, they found something and took advantage of the Vikings punt team. Just something to file away for later in the season.
  10. Well, yes, given this team' extreme case of step-own-their-dickitus, forgot about this, thanks.
  11. I know it sucks but, a lose is better, in theory, with some effort, the Bears should be able to move the ball and score some points. Don't really believe the Lions can stop anybody right now, even the Bears.
  12. I'd like to see an increase in the number of targets for Rome and DJ, coupled with a lesser number of balls thrown to Allen. Maybe, work in Tyler Scott as well, it's basically a jump start on the pre-season for the Bears. Better yet, just shelve Allen, he doesn't apply to future, no reason to waste any of Caleb' development on him.
  13. Clock/Game management? Better challenges? Point is, no way the Bears going to win 8-9 games with the fired version of Eberflus. I'll give you the unlucky side, while being largely incompetent, he and Bears have had the most awful luck in 2024. Outside of Caleb not being a complete disaster nothing has worked, everything that could go wrong, has, it's mainly a by product of being terrible in the trenches. However, almost all of Poles' other moves have backfired.
  14. Do the Nuggets have the assets? In this case the Bulls can and should hold for a big time return, LaVine is playing pretty well, no reason the Bulls shouldn't ask the world for him.
  15. Had they gone 9-8 there's a good chance Eberflus would have improved as a coach, 9-8 doesn't happen with the version of Eberflus that got him canned. But, alas, Eberflus didn't learn from his mistakes and never attempted to improve, although it's a horsefeathers show now, it may ultimately turn out to be a good thing he was terminated. I believe Poles is soon to follow him out the door, a clean GM/HC slate is probably best. Although it's the Bears doing the hiring nevertheless, a clean slate is probably for the best.
  16. I honestly believe the previous coaches didn't like the QB's because they sucked, the new HC will like Caleb.
  17. Yeah, I'd go with Bagent to close out the season,
  18. This season is a wash, beyond the health of Caleb there's nothing to be taken away from this offense. Next season is a reset and we can only hope it's one with a competent HC. On the subject of HC's and all of Ben Johnson' supposed demands, on one hand, I can see trying to meet them in order to hire him. On the hand I'm thinking horsefeathers him and his demands, Kingsburry could come in and vastly improve this team' offense and Caleb probably without a bunch of organizational demands, extraneous horsefeathers.
  19. I'd really like to know why Sweat was called for roughing the passer while that Vikings dickhead who laid out Caleb in front of an official wasn't flagged. Doesn't matter all much in the game' outcome but, the health of Caleb is the concern.
  20. There's no question Williams to Odunze will be a thing IF the Bears stumble upon the right coaches. Rome has the potential to be receiver everyone fears, talks about, etc. better than St. Brown or anyone else on the Lions, better than anyone on the Packers, better than anyone beyond Jefferson on the Vikings. The ingredients are there just need the right chef.
  21. Currently, there's nothing to support asking for a kings' ransom on the Marlins side. If the Marlins keep him and he pitches well going into the trade deadline well, that's another story.
  22. I'm fairly certain Kliff Kingsbury, Joe Brady or Ben Johnson would notice.
  23. This coupled with a trade for Luzardo and the Cubs are finally acting like the big market team they are, ready to eliminate the rest of the NL Central. I like it.
  24. Like the Lions they've got to stumble across or luck into good hires, it can be done but, as said, it's going to take some good fortune.
  25. Everyone is thinking the Seahawks game as probably the last reasonable chance the Bears have to win. With their multitude of injuries on defense, ironically, the Lions might be a decent chance at a win. Of course, it would be so Bears to make the present Lions defense look like world beaters.
