    All logic and common sense speaks to such a conclusion. But, it is the Bears so, you never know.

    I've seen people arguing it was clean, that's football, total horsefeathers, dude's wearing a brace. Leads with that padded arm right into Lawrence' head, there was nothing "hard" and "clean" about it, should be fined and suspended.

    If Brown can help with the case of step on their own dickitis they'll probably win some games. It's not a roster devoid of talent, I would say none of the remaining teams have a big edge, if any, in talent on the Bears. Hopefully, Wright and Shelton will be good to go, the OL with Jones, Jenkins, Shelton and Wright is adequate. An adequate OL with Caleb getting the ball out quick means the offense will cook. Big things are will the defense stop the run enough and generate some pressure on the QB to get some stops. They were able to do so in the second half vs. Lions, which means they're certainly capable of getting a few stops vs anyone else.

    I'm probably wrong but, I think leadership may have improved under Poles, I truly believe he convinced McCaskey Eberflus had to go. Eberflus being allowed to do his Zoom call was enough evidence to me that, were it up to McCaskey, he was going to be allowed to finish the season. Poles thought otherwise.

    Maybe, look a kicker with a big leg late in the draft, Santos is reliable and accurate but, only at short distances. Need that kicker who routinely nails FG from 50+ yards out like every other team seems to possess.

    Other than perhaps, the Cowboys, Bears is the most desirable, Bears roster + Caleb Williams is the closest to a playoff team.
  7. gflore34
    I don't believe it'll be so, Poles had to convince McCaskey to fire Eberflus and he did, I believe Poles knows Brown is a possible candidate and nothing else. True, Poles deserves heat for the obvious roster decencies and giving Eberflus another shot, he also deserves credit for knowing Eberflus had to go. I think he's got an idea of the right moves to make.

    Me neither, that's why I don't want see him go 3-2 or win any games. McCaskey' a gullible idiot who'd be convinced they found their next HC should such a thing transpire.
  9. gflore34
    When you think about it, it's very fortunate the way yesterday' game ended, Eberflus in his typical dick-less fashion, was going for the tie. Just consider, had the Bears tied the game, with a probability of 1, Eberflus' defense would have blown it in OT and we'd be talking about another defensive breakdown. While Eberflus remained HC.
  10. gflore34
    To me, the above says Warren/Poles had to convince McCaskey that letting go of Eberflus was the correct move. If true, good on them.
  11. gflore34
    The real question is did Eberflus try to use that final TO? Or is still in his back pocket?
  12. gflore34
    I don't want anymore wins, just Caleb' continued development and a stop to coaching malpractice/ineptitude.
  13. gflore34
    I know but, at least, they fired him. I really believe McCaskey was not going to pull the trigger, that's why Eberflus was allowed to go on, business as usual, until Poles got to him.
  14. gflore34
    Because he's a nice boy who doesn't cuss? But, seriously, I don't believe McCaskey was going to fire him, think Poles laid on the line for him.
  15. gflore34
    Will Poles ever get fed up and say to McCaskey - "listen, you dumb horsefeathers, your HC has lost the support of the players, he must be terminated, now" - or something to that extent? Most anyone, regardless of how professional their approach, would reach a boiling point as these dumb founded loses pile up. Guess Poles just did say something to that extent to McCaskey, if he did, I'll give him credit for trying to start to get it right.
  16. gflore34
    Next season how could the Bears HC job not be in the most demand? Think about it, a QB, decent roster and an ownership that'll give you multiple chances no matter how badly you horsefeathers up, What's not to like? It's got to be the most desirable job out there and it's not even close.
  17. gflore34
    Better question had that been a Bears player hitting Goff would a flag have been thrown? I say, 100% yes, earlier in the game they manufactured a roughing the passer call against the Bears, there's no doubt in my mind that would have drawn a flag.
  18. gflore34
    The shot Caleb took from the Lions LB was it cheap? Appeared to me Caleb was starting to go down and the LB targeted his knee.
  19. gflore34
    Honestly, letting Eberflus remain the head coach pretty much clinches a 4-13 finish with a pick inside the top 10. So adding more talent to a team with an already decent roster and a QB. Beyond that, since ownership isn't changing, they're going to have to luck into good coaching. Whomever they ultimately line up as candidates it won't be McCaskey-Poles proof, it's going to have to be the luck of the draw.
  20. gflore34
    The only solution is a change of ownership, current ownership is incapable of making anything resembling the correct move. It's really a shame because, Caleb appears to be the kind of QB Bears fans have waiting for all their lives and he's going to be wasted by this joke of an organization.
  21. gflore34
    Of course, Wright and Shelton got hurt, thought the line was starting to play OK, then, more injuries. Who knows, if Wright is not hurt Caleb' probably not sacked on the last drive.
  22. gflore34
    Most any "fan" can now see Eberflus must be shown the door.
  23. gflore34
    Wasn't there a 3-10 with the Bears giving Addison or whatever horsefeathers face receiver for the Vikings a huge cushion? And, of course, the Vikings easily converted. What's not tentative or soft about that?
  24. gflore34
    It a simple fact if Jim Harbaugh is coach of the Bears they win this game and are probably 8-4/9-3. But no, Bears ownership wants to win in "right" or what the horsefeathers ever way and Harbaugh is just too out there for them. Oh well, at least the Illini kicked Arkansas' ass.
  25. gflore34
    This what I don't understand, his approach is not working, ultimately it's going to result in his termination. Knowing this, one would think he'd change trying to save his job. Is he too dense? Does he not realize he's going to be a former head coach sometime soon?
