  1. Any kind of a run here would be acceptable.
  2. Key is getting that first out without the runner advancing.
  3. I'm calling it, Happ goes deep this inning
  4. Besides Tauchman the team wide hitting slump is one thing, there's no excuse for this crap-ass defense this has got to stop.
  5. Looking more and more like he'll never be able to make it at the MLB level, he's the very definition of a AAAA player.
  6. Even more frustrating some of it is on hanging breaking balls and fastballs right in the zone for most left handed hitters.
  7. Swanson' recent inability to make routine plays is growing really horsefeathers tiresome.
  8. I'll take average, as we know this would be a significant upgrade for the Bears. Realistically, with average play at QB, this team should put up a shitload of points. I figure anything beyond average is gravy that's how low the bar is for a Bears QB.
  9. It's really getting tiresome to hear all the talking heads on NFL network drone on and on about what a great situation JJ McCarthy is entering. I'm probably being selfish because all I want them to talk about is the Bears draft and, in the end, all their talk is worthless, still, seems like they're spending an awful lot of time talking about JJ McCarthy. For the record, Caleb Williams' situation with the Bears isn't too bad either. Okay, re-wind, delete above was written before I saw this - Who won Day 1 segment - https://www.nfl.com/network/shows/good-morning-football# - he's correct, they won't be Super Bowl contenders, they'll be competent to good, no more QB looking like a deer in headlights waiting to be sacked, no more, they are done being your whipping boy Green Bay, Minnesota and Detroit.
  10. Stanton with a 2B in the top of the 10th Yankees take the lead.
  11. Don't hate it, can never have enough OL, guy's a monster.
  12. Wanted Trice, Van Pran still available, but, I think they'll go DL.
  13. I like Dexter quite a bit, I think he's going to one of those guys that break out and have people saying who the hell is this guy? Where did he come from?
  14. Bears next pick is at 75, think they'll be looking at DL or, possibly, C? Taking a quick glance at PFF remaining top 100, I see names like Georgia C Van Pran, OSU DL Michael Hall Jr., Washington Bralen Trice ranked 43rd and below. Not saying the remaining rounds will go according to PFF rankings just trying to get a rough idea of who may be available at 75.
  15. That whole BS RG3 was spewing is a perfect example, him blaming Fields struggles on just the Bears was complete nonsense.
  16. Love what Poles said when questioned about the Bears bad history at QB, not exact quotes, nevertheless, he said those days are over, got to stop going back all the time. This whole narrative the Bears ruin QB's is such horsefeathers, what they have been guilty of is drafting QB's with un-fixable flaws. I believe Williams is far less flawed than Trubisky and Fields, at the very least, he'll manage to be average. The reason I believe in Williams is Bagent, Bagent has some physical limitations but, processing and speed of the game is not a problem for him. That told me Poles knows what to look for in a QB.
  17. All in all, not bad day for a Chicago sports fan, PCA breaks the seal as the Cubs complete the sweep of the Astros and the Bears have the NFL's best draft.
  18. Touchdown-less first half's or under 200 passing yards are no longer the norm for the Bears, goodbye and good riddance.
  19. Just awesome, all I can say, offense, offense, if Caleb just manages to be average the Bears are going to light up the scoreboard.
  20. On the Score they were going over the chain of events that led to the Bears drafting Caleb Williams #1 tonight. It's almost mind-boggling, it all started with the Texans, on the same drive, converting a 4th and 10 along with a 4th and 20. Then the trade with Carolina, say what you will about Poles. But, if Williams succeeds, Poles trade with Carolina may one day replace the Herschel Walker trade as franchise altering trade.
  21. It's my dream as well, if he's there he'll be a Bear otherwise, Nabers, otherwise, trade down.
  22. I wouldn't put Marmol is that group, when right, Marmol was unhittable. Can't say that Borowski or Alfonseca.
  23. Counsell will keep going with Neris as the closer until he blows a save, maybe, that confidence will be helpful to him.
  24. Of course, Neris is trying for save, I don't like this, hopefully, it turns out well.
