    I guess another reason to consider a trade down to get more immediate assets. One of the talking heads on Twitter, might have been a Sun times guy was saying the Bears would have to have a roughly 80% hit rate on moves this offseason to contend for the playoffs in 2023. That may ultimately be right. We’ll see That seems awfully high. The Bears were close to at least 4-5 more wins this season. A few breaks go their way and they’d be “in the hunt” right now. The Vikings on the other hand have had a lot break their way. No team in NFL history has more one score wins in a season. A regression to the mean should be expected next season. The Packers are on the way down and while they’re trending in the right direction the Lions still don’t have a QB. The division should be very winnable in 2023.

    Play the horsefeathering QB if he's healthy enough to play. He needs all the reps he can get. I get that injuries are always possible but I don't see the benefit of sitting him the last 2 games.

    You’re not wrong about some things in here, but Zach has been incredibly efficient the last several years. And I’m pretty sure he’s a good dude and a good teammate. The stories above seem to paint a different picture.

    Trade LaVine for picks, trade Vooch for a couple basketballs, trade Coby for whatever you can get for him, pray with everything that we land a top 4 pick, profit.

    I thought it was pretty obviously cramps for Fields at the time it happened.

    It’s not necessarily the lack of scoring. It’s more the lack of scoring opportunities I think. Goalkeepers can go an entire game without having to make a save and it’s not a rare occasion. And I get that there doesn’t have to be a save for there to have been a scoring chance but it seems to my uneducated eyes that rarely in games is there a true chance of a goal happening. That definitely was NOT the case yesterday. And I hate the fact that the World Cup final was decided on penalty kicks. Seems like such an injustice to the teams in my opinion.

    I really don’t like soccer at all. A large part of that comes from me not knowing the intricacies of the game so I get bored with it easily. I tried multiple times to watch some of the WC games and didn’t enjoy a lot of it. For whatever reason I turned yesterday’s game on not long after the start. I wasn’t paying close attention but it was on and I found myself getting into it a little. The second goal for Argentina was a thing of beauty. I was about to turn it off with Argentina cruising to a 2-0 win when France got their penalty shot. From there to the end of the game it was one of the most exciting sporting events I’ve seen in a long time. I had to chuckle a little when I kept hearing different announcers/commentators talk about how that was the most exciting game in soccer history because I was thinking to myself how maybe I should watch a little more because it was a lot of fun. But nothing will ever top that game so I should probably go out in a high note.

    What a horsefeathering mess. It’s amazing how huge of a difference Lonzo Ball makes.

    Is it too late to get my season tickets back?

    I didn't watch a single inning of Cubs baseball this season, Never in my life did I think I would say that. I didn't watch ANY baseball until the playoffs and even then it was sporadic. The Cubs have killed most of my love of the game.

    Is Correa any good at making rain delay speeches?

    I hated him when he was at Tech only because he beat A&M so many times but I grew to love him once he left. He was such a unique character but also an incredible football mind. I was hoping we'd get many years of him being on pre-game shows and the like. Would have been amazing.

    Vooch would actually have to step foot in the lane for your plan to work. He doesn’t do much of that.

    I thought one of the ESPN channels usually shows the D2 championship.

    So who is left from the WS team? Hendricks? Anyone else?

    I was sad to see Willy go but not upset. I am going to puke when I see him in a Cards uniform, though.

    I still want to add a true #1 WR.

    I'm pretty sure Coach Prime is the CEO type. He will have coordinators that call all the plays. Rumor is that Mike Zimmer will be his DC. Apparently Zim served as an advisor to Sanders at JSU.

    With the draft picks and available cap space the Bears had better be a playoff contender at least next season. I realize there are a lot of holes to file but as we have seen Fields can cover up a lot of issues with his ridiculous talent. Get a true #1 WR in the draft, look to build an OL via FA and whatever salvageable pieces we have, and then rebuild the front 7 on D through a combo of draft & FA. The Packers are not good and heading in the wrong direction. The Lions are heading in the right direction but still not all that good. So we should be able to compete for the division crown next season if Poles doesn't horsefeathers the bed this offseason.

    Every week Goatse has a 2nd half stretch where he gets super conservative and the offense grinds to a halt. It's maddening to me. It's almost as if they are doing it on purpose to tank.
