I do not believe it's unrealistic to think Daboll' will hold out for a Bears offer, it's best job available. If doesn't who is the next best option Flores, Leftwich?
-
Nope. I tell you what though, when Kofi comes back and starts to take some "accidental" or "incidental" shots to face/head, if I'm Underwood, I go nuts on the officials and the opposing coach. That's cheap [expletive] trying to take a player out.

Another concussion for the Illini tonight, this time its Kofi, WTF is it with the Illini and concussions lately? Do not recall a basketball team have so many players with concussions over the last two years. Guess, like Curbelo, it happened in practice and, was aggravated by the elbow he took to face from Edey on Monday. Without Kofi the Illini still have enough to beat Maryland tonight, Curbelo being back will surely help with that.
-
Another hard pass for me, nope, nope, nope, I'm good with Daboll, Flores, Caldwell even McDaniels, Frazier would be a typical Bear mistake.
-
With Nagy and Co. coaching yes, I don't believe it's correct to just assume that under the new regime. Unlike, that previous stubborn dumb horsefeathers, I think the next HC, etc. are going to look to cater the offensive and scheme to things Fields does well. In complete contrast to the statement above that would be setting him up for success. I don't think the bar is set at All Pro either, marked improvement with the Bears scoring a horsefeathers ton of points and handing one to the Packers and Rodgers would do it for me.

I think Edey is slow and foul prone, he can be had by a mobile big man, I know that's not Kofi's game. However, I do believe, in comparison, he's faster than Edey and a better athlete. We may see more of that the next game perhaps, more so, with a healthy Hawkins than Kofi. The straight post up and bully your way to the basket won't work with Edey. Of course. However, the scouting report is out on Edey... he continues to put up big numbers. 7-4 is not easy to deal with in college hoops. With Curbelo back in the rotation for the Illini they'll be better, his ability to get anywhere with the ball and dish is going to help out with drawing reaching fouls on Edey. I think the Illini will change the approach for the rematch, try to get Edey moving, if they can do that they'll get him in foul trouble. I'd try having Kofi on pick and rolls, cuts to the goal, back door cuts, most especially with Curbelo at PG.

I take much of the Fields talk with a grain of salt, he had a coach and offensive scheme that did not put him a position to succeed. By doing so it set him up for failure, making it easy to take shots at him. Let's see how he does with a coaching staff that knows what the horsefeathers they're doing.
-
I know having success with super stars is scaring some off Leftwich but, I think there's a stronger case him. Far stronger than say, Hackett, who should be a hard, hard pass, outside of his work with Rodgers there's nothing like what Leftwich did with Winston.
-
Definitely, I would think finding a C will be priority one for the Bulls this off season. I don't get the lack of effort from him, Grizzlies and other teams getting offensive boards simply because they're working harder. Once in a while we get glimpses of effort from him and it usually turns out well. There was FT attempt in third were he really laid it on that Adams almost knocking him on his ass, why can't that there most of the time?
-
He's done an admirable job, but I'd still prefer Daboll, and, I've come full circle on Desai. What would the chances be that a Daboll head coach/Desai DC could work? The bears ended up 6th in total yards on D. Me to, if going to error, error on the side of offense, it's all about offense, offense in today's NFL. Daboll is the young, hot candidate with far more evidence of success than Nagy. So, hopefully, the McCaskey' aren't gun shy.

Philly and the Raiders were the two weakest teams in the playoffs and they're out. I think every remaining team is capable of winning or losing to their opponent and it not be considered a huge upset. I think you misspelled Steelers there. I’d take the Raiders over them for sure. Regardless, just make it three worst teams and that covers it. Without question Steelers were and are the worst of the playoff teams, didn't deserve to be in the playoffs at all, didn't play like a playoff team. Got some inexplicable breaks to beat the Bears, just garbage.
-
The game I really want the Illini to win and win big is vs. MSU. Lost all respect for Izzo after that goon squad hit on Ayo, dude literally punched him in the face. I may be wrong but, I'm almost certain the goon was allowed to remain in the game nor did he get a flagrant foul. I firmly believe that had repercussions down the line because, Ayo re-aggravated the injury when he got popped in face towards the end of the Big Ten Championship game, he was definitely not 100% for tournament. It was obvious in the Loyola game.
-
Most definitely looked so much better, hopefully, the post concussion effects are behind him, bigger and better things on the horizon for the Illini. Would not be all that surprised if neither the Illini or Purdue loss another game going into the game on 2/10.
-
I think the 49ers have a good chance of knocking off GB Would I ever love that. Certainly possible but I don't think so. If I'm a Packer fan the only team that concerns me is TB, the rest of the field doesn't have much of chance in my opinion. And this is OK, I want those pissants to win the SB and Rodgers back at QB when the Bears start beating them, it'll be that much more rewarding.
-
This sure as horsefeathers sounds like something an even self-proclaimed casual fan of today's NFL would know, no?
-
Wow, Fields had to be practically decapitated to get a roughing call. Totally. Compared to the hits he took this year, the one in Brady was nothing Not to mention it appears the Eagle defender was pushed into Brady and appears he's was trying to keep Brady from falling rather than hitting him.
-
Yeah, Steelers - Chiefs will most likely be a blowout as well, on the flip side Cardinals - Rams/Niners - Cowboys have chances to be good games.
-
It just sucks these key hires are in hands of an ownership that almost always chooses the wrong guy and does the wrong thing basically, immune to getting things correct. I have to think McCaskey has heard this, is pissed off and determined to get it right. Still doesn't fill me with much confidence, let's hope lady luck is in the Bears corner for a change.

I think thats being probably a little unfair to Mac. That first part could describe any rookie QB. I know he had a high floor low ceiling profile coming in, but I'd say he exceeded those expectations even as a rookie. Obviously his ceiling will be a limit of his mental game rather than physical game, but we can't really discount the mental component. I mean even Brady wasn't that good until what like year 5 or 6? If he's in a system that will generally protect him, he could still be a high ceiling QB. That's probably true, sometimes though you need a QB to make a play or two with his physical abilities that's where Fields is much more attractive.
-
Did not think the Pats had much of a chance yesterday, was not expecting that kind of a blowout though. Jones strikes me as the type of QB that needs a really strong supporting cast and system, that cast needs to have good games in order for him to succeed so, New England is the perfect place for him. I've seen many harping on the Bears taking Jones but, I still very happy with Fields. It's been rough however, Fields still has all the qualities of potential franchise QB whereas, were seeing pretty close to Jones' ceiling.
-
I'm not worried about multiple teams being hot for Daboll perhaps, for the first time ever, the Bears are the pick of the litter, the job everyone wants. While Fields doesn't have Allen' arm or size he's probably a little faster than Allen, I really liked what I saw of Daboll' offense yesterday, most especially against a well coached opponent with a top defense. I look upon Bears - Packers being similar to Bills - Patriots, Bills are starting to flip the cycle, think the Bears have chance to do that in near future.
-
Has Big Ten officiating gotten worse? They tried like hell to had MSU the game today, so many terrible calls, but, you still lost Izzo.
-
I know Zach going out is a big downer but, they're not even making an effort out there, ESPN announcers creaming in their pants over Igoudala' steals. Hell, I could make those plays when the balls being thrown to me to.
