    Just read that the Bears are signing Chauncey Gardner Johnson. Ugh. I have never been a fan.

    There was a video of Wemby taking down a rebound and dribbling behind his back twice and one more time between his legs as he navigated through traffic after his rebound. The video was on repeat and I couldn't stop watching it. Didn't look clumsy at all. It was a guy in complete control and it was fascinating.

    Honestly don't understand any of this. These are talented pass catchers on this team and this offense is sputtering badly. To be so misled after what looked like an amazing opening series until it turned into a field goa is beyond poopy. If you are going to suck, suck from play 1 and stop teasing me.

    It's rumored that John Harbaugh will be getting fined for the way they reported Lamar Jackson's injury status this week.

    Who are they replacing Reichel with?

    Frickin' game was not on CHSN last night. How many times will I miss games this year because of that? I mean, I'm only paying $30 a month for this horsefeathers.

    More rich guys to pay off Trump on get out of jail free cards.

    Oh I realize he's pretty much trash. Just surprised is all.

    Bulls were without Coby, but Detroit was without Ivey. With that said, the starting line up was a bit surprising. Buzelis, Giddey, Vuc, Tre Jones and Isaac Okoro. Glad to see LaVine gone. Surprised to see Ayo and Patrick Williams coming off the bench.

    Beginning of the season, I expected no one to beat the Ravens. Lamar is a top QB, Henry and Hill are an amazing complement to one another. Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Hopkins coupled with two bonafide pass catching TE's to go with what was expected to be a decent defense and to see them at 1-5 is arguably one of the top stories of the year. The defense will have their work cut out for them this week. Ravens really can't afford to lose another one right now. Really need Jarrett and Booker back this week. I wouldn't even hate some sort of trade for a defensive lineman now that some teams are ready for a fire sale. The blitz might work well on Cooper Rush, but could prove to be ineffective with Lamar's legs and the field spreading pass catchers. Trade deadline is November 4th, so two weeks from today. I guess DL, CB and RB are the three spots one could most consider as upgradeable if the team feels like making a playoff run.

    A big difference between Goff running Ben's offense and Caleb running Ben's offense was Goff had several years of NFL experience coming into Ben's system, while Caleb had one disastrous year under incompetent Shane Waldron.
  12. BigbadB
    It all comes down to Caleb learning how to be an NFL QB. Watching Flacco go into Cincy and in week 2 just abusing the opponent like he's been there all year is what I expect Caleb to eventually do once he's comfortable in the system. Someone mentioned in the game log that they wondered if Caleb was instructed not to run downfield when the pocket was collapsing. There could be something to that. Maybe Ben wants him to not bail on his pocket protection too soon. He actually seemed like he tried to stay in the pocket when it was collapsing on Sunday. Goff is strictly a pocket passer that only runs if there is a 20 yard cushion and a clear path to that cushion. Goff has been a great fit for the offense Ben has instituted in Detroit.

    I sure hope they make it in this year. I'm really enjoying these games. Shooting has been up the last few games, which was much needed.
  14. BigbadB
    So Giants of them to go and get their own TD and then miss the extra point, setting up the game winning field goal. It would have been tied and going to overtime if they make their own extra point. Crazy game.
  15. BigbadB
    Another bs call. It’s starting to feel like the Bears are being targeted by the officials.
  16. BigbadB
    How the hell do you blow the whistle on a play where the pile is still clearly moving. But it’s okay to let push tush plays drag out I guess.
  17. BigbadB
    Seems that Kpassagnon was replaced by Homer instead of Booker. Booker is missing yet another game.
  18. BigbadB
    Santos is not only under contract, but he's way more accurate than Jake Moody. Moody missed 10 field goals last year, and Santos has only missed 14 in his 6 seasons in Chicago. Moody has already missed 3 this year in only 2 NFL games. I just don't get why this is even being talked about. I like that Moody's foot won the Bears that game last Monday, but let's not be too quick to recognize the accuracy of Santos. I'm not really a fan of Santos, but the Bears gave him that contract, so he's here. He may not be counted on for anything beyond 55 yards, but he's pretty good when asked to kick from wherever the Bears decide to go for 3. I don't know if the kickoff had anything to do with the Commanders starting with excellent field position every time, but maybe Cairos is better at that, too?

    From everything I've seen, the World Series dates are locked in, so it doesn't matter how many games the AL goes. Ohtani will be in line to start game one of the WS. Game one is listed as October 24th.
  21. BigbadB
    Shemar Turner got a lot of reps at DE against the Commanders. Anyone know how he was graded out at that position for that game? They are getting Booker back on Sunday, also. Tanoh Kpassagnon was removed from the roster to make room for Booker. It would be nice to see more production from the 2025 draft in this one.
  22. BigbadB
    Yep. The big red flag on Santos has been distance. So many times they would opt to punt at a distance just about every other team is going for 3. And with the new starting distances, more and more often offenses will stall within field goal range than ever before. While I think it's time to move on from Santos, I'm not so sure Moody is the guy you do that with. His accuracy hasn't been very good in the past.
  23. BigbadB
    Sure would be nice to see Loveland have a first round pick level game. Thought it was going to happen last week, but after the "push off" he went silent for the most part. Looking like maybe no DJ this week, so Burden is likely the next man up to spread the field with Odunze and Zaccheus.
  24. BigbadB
    That's what I was looking for. Gonna have to try to watch it again sometime today. Was up at 1am to get my wife to the airport. Got through most of the first period before I ran out of gas. So, St. Louis has had two home games. First one was a shut out and the second one was a football score. Gotta love it.
  25. BigbadB
    But why Cease? I just don't see anything in his peripherals that make him a desirable choice. I'd take any of the current Cubs starters (Steele, Horton, Boyd, Imanaga, Taillon) over Cease as rotation options. If you are adding someone, get someone who is significantly better than the aforementioned.
