I think the Eagles will do what the Lions failed to do stick with the running game. Lions were running all over the Commanders with Gibbs there was no reason to stop.
-
Illini lost a tough one today falling by 2 to MSU in East Lansing, didn't watch the game. Apparently foul trouble severely limited KJ, from reading the comments and seeing some highlights 2 of his 5 fouls were extraordinary questionable. Including one where KJ literally didn't touch the Spartan player. He was +7 when he played, I think it's pretty safe to say if he was allowed to play 30 minutes the Illini win, maybe even, win comfortably. Guess there was also an out of bounds initially called for the Illini, Izzo comes out and whines, gets the call reversed. Funny how every time MSU beats a better Illinois team there's always some BS angle, Ayo getting punched in the face. Best player on either side, KJ, has his minutes limited by foul trouble including two phantom calls.

Will he spend the money this time? The time for uncertainty, timidity is over, if he wishes to be a GM beyond 2025, it's now or never.
-
They did look good, I agree, being gifted 5 TO's didn't hurt.
-
Also wouldn't be shocking if the clock strikes midnight on Daniels and the Commanders next week vs. the Eagles.
-
If the Bears had taken Daniels there' not even the remotest possibility, under the same circumstances as Caleb, Daniels would have put up the same numbers. That Caleb did fairly well surrounded by absolute horsefeathers coaching and a joke of an offensive line speaks volumes. It gives me confidence with improved coaching and line Caleb will surpass Daniels.
-
Mark my words Daniels will regress next season while Caleb ascends. Be it Ben Johnson or Mike McCarthy Caleb will excel under both, provided, of course, Poles fixes the line. It's not horsefeathers rocket surgery Poles, fix the horsefeathers line.
-
Or, at the very least, the Cubs acted like the Dodgers of the NL Central.
-
Not a surprise, fix was in from the start, I know other teams had to make an effort to keep the doors open for the future. Still, you makes you wonder if some of them thought it was a worthless exercise.
-
That's a possibility, could also be a known cheater - Brady - has eyes set on our target. We better come up with more options.
-
Eberflus was fired in November, they've had plenty of time to zero in on their HC. If this true and, it might be, we're doomed as Bears fans. There isn't a reason to give the Bears the benefit of the doubt other than thinking no one in Poles position could be that inept.
-
Maybe a wrong call on my part however, I suspect the Bears know and have known who they'd like for HC. NFL rules being what they are have kept them from offering and securing their target. In the mean time all the interviews and such? Well, WTF else are they going to do? I don't think it hurts in the least to network and get varied opinions of their organization. Who knows, they might be enjoying the Chicago media with their heads on fire going nuts over nothing. I also believe McCarthy being unexpectedly available has added a contingency plan.
-
Thanks, this goes a long towards displaying that BP has a good deal of subjective-ness built into the rankings. Had the trade been the other way I'm almost certain Hope and Ferris, as Cubs' prospects. Would not have been given the benefit of the doubt in same manner. It's the Dodgers so they must be good.
-
Was thinking about day 2/3 RB's I like Johnson Iowa, Judkins Ohio State or Skattebo Arizona State, one of them will probably be available.
-
I guess it's tools and projection, numbers aren't eye popping. Maybe, it because, it's the Dodgers?
-
I agree, I should have clarified, didn't mean Jeanty to be used only between the tackles, meant he's capable whereas, that's not a part of Swift' game. Nevertheless, it's a RB rich draft, they'll be someone to draft on day 2 or day 3, primary focus must be the lines.
-
Despite my preference for offense, I agree, if Carter or Graham are there at 10, I'd take them. Then go OL, OL, OL/RB/WR with the remaining 3 picks.
-
Provided they go OL, OL and DL with their remaining picks in the top 100, Jeanty would be okay. He'd give the Bears some who could run between the tackles to contrast with Swift. Not altogether the worst possible choice, they could do far worse.
-
I don't believe he'll be available at 10, most have him gone within the top 9. So Poles won't have chance to pass on him for someone coming off an injury.
-
Exactly. Maybe Simmons will be okay for another team. The Bears have had terrible luck drafting guys with injury histories best just to stay away.
-
Hard pass, underwent season ending knee surgery in October, no more draftees with major injury histories. Replace Simmons with Banks Jr. Texas.
-
Illini bounced back in a big way 94-69 at Indiana, KJ was good as was Ivisic. Don't get Indiana, think they should be better, maybe, it's their back court, coaching, both?
-
He definitely raises the floor, Caleb and the offense will improve quite a bit. He's probably a better choice than most of the other candidates beyond Johnson.
-
No doubt about this, most especially Daniels, he's good, however, he's got a large helping of pixie dust.
-
Don't know why the facade/charade of interest in other teams was necessary. It was always going to be the Dodgers. I'm certain, once it's official, we'll learn of a handshake agreement being in place all the while.
