    They do. If you listen to the way the ref announced it, he said the illegal forward pass wasn't a "simple foul". Meaning the if it had been an illegal formation or something along those lines, they would have enforced both penalties and the Bears would have gotten 10 yards. I do, however, have a problem with their definition of a simple foul. Anything that only results in a 5 yard penalty, loss of down or not, should not offset a pretty brutal personal foul call.

    Looked like the old Urlacher on that hit on Foster on 2nd down. If he starts playing fast again, this defense is going to get even scarier. May need it if Jay is out for very long though.

    There's not even a remote guarantee that he'll put up a 10 WAR career, much less in 5 years, though. That might be generous for a "floor" projection.

    This is a statement of fact that you, or anybody else at this point, cannot possibly know to be true: It is a statement of fact, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only person in the world who can know it to be true. Either you're trolling or you read that wrong. That was for the comment below it.

    I hate to do this, but: This is a reasonable opinion to have: This is a statement of fact that you, or anybody else at this point, cannot possibly know to be true: If they sign him for 5/$25 mil plus the $26 mil posting fee and he puts up even 2 WAR/year, it's basically a break even deal.

    I laughed:

    Agreed. I'll be glad to get angsty over premium talents. But this guy's deal is that he might be an okay lefthanded starter and he might not be. Not exactly someone I'm going to bash them for not getting. Until I feel like bashing them later. You should make more posts like this where you blatantly embrace your flopping. :good:

    I think I'd be surprised if it goes much above $20 mil. Just not enough concrete info on this guy to determine where he'd fit in I don't think and even if you project him as a 3 at his ceiling, do you pay more than $20 to get him?

    Or, the Cubs got twice as many international FAs as any other team did. You do realize there are 29 other teams out there competing for resources right?

    He looked dominant on a sporadic basis this year, but definitely lacked consistency. I saw him against the Reds affiliate (Dayton?) and he was nearly untouchable. I can see him listed highly before some of these other less/unproven guys despite being a bit older.
  11. mul21
    Yeah, this list isn't very good.
  12. mul21
    Well, between what you just said and what Jay said about wanting more screen passes, I think that may play in the Bears' favor. Fast defense usually means aggressive to the ball and that could very well leave them vulnerable to screens.
  13. mul21
    They still have JJ Watt... That's exactly why I threw that last sentence in there!
  14. mul21
    Have the Texans figured out what they're doing with Cushing out for the year? I have to think losing him has to have a significant effect on how good their defense is now. Might be mitigated a bit against the Bears porous offensive line though.

    NFL Week 9

    mul21 replied to Banedon's topic in Other Sports

    I think when you've got a guy like Luck, who is proving to be everything the experts thought he could be thus far, keeping it close and giving him a chance to win it late isn't a bad play. Also, those two blowout losses, to the Bears on the road in week 1 and to the Jets on the road the week after the emotional Pagano stuff and win against the Packers. I wouldn't be surprised to see them win both of the Jax and KC road games. The two home games they're favored in are good bets for Ws as well. And with as bad as the rest of the AFC appears to be, 9-7 probably gets them in.

    His ability to hit the ball with his fist as often as he does is just unbelievable. The hand eye coordination and timing are just amazing. And Cutler likes throwing to Marshall! Loving the "Let's go Bears!" chant in the background.

    Peanut! Holy isht!

    I'm becoming more and more impressed with Conte all the time. The guy makes all kinds of plays and looks like he's a pretty decent cover guy for a safety.
  19. mul21
    Outside of all of that being completely inaccurate, right on bro!

    Kyle, I think you need to fix your sig.....
  21. mul21
    Yeah, potentially I would think. He's only 31. But he does have about 2000 innings on his arm in the last 8 years. He could be the best pitcher on the staff or his arm could fall off. He just turned 32 actually.
  22. mul21
    I would think it's probably not very likely. This has hope he builds value and trade him at the deadline written all over it. I certainly wouldn't mind it if he stuck around for a bit provided he regains a couple ticks on his FB.
  23. mul21
    You have the biggest Enzyte and Viagra induced doom boner that is possible. God you suck.
  24. mul21
    Resign him to a 3 year $21.5mm deal. It's about average So you're going with him being wrong and you wanting to pay more. I do not think you mean that. Kyle has effectivelY driven you insane. That's pretty disturbing. Try reading that again, but pretend it's in green.
  25. mul21
    That approach seems completely reasonable and plausible. That would be a team that at least wouldn't be painful to watch the last 2 months of the season unless they really went after it in terms of selling off parts for prospects.
