    I just believe in an alternate viewpoint, like the fact that I want the entirety of human civilization to collapse and the earth to burn to cinders

    The neurotic meatball in me doesn’t like the karma of not trying vs the Vikings and then letting them waltz into the playoffs and beating us next week. It would be eerily similar to the way things turned out in 2010 with Green Bay. But also that’s irrational superstitions. I dunno. I hate the set up all around, I’ll be uncomfortable with basically any outcome until the Bears get out of the Wild Card round.

    You wouldn't have thought it watching the game but Trubisky was 25 for 29 He's lucky a really bad INT was wiped by a penalty but otherwise, extremely efficient.

    well that was exactly what i feared as a worst case scenario: a stupid sloppy game the Bears should have won by 20 but eked out either way. The more Mitch plays though, the better, and the more confident I feel in him. He has his spots, but he's already better than Cutler was at any point.

    What a magnificent drive. When the Bears move the ball like that they’re unstoppable.
  6. BigSlick
    Ok all the indescribably stupid stuff has passed and now the Bears are moving the ball with purpose again
  7. BigSlick
    Well, I guess if we’re gonna fumble three times deep in our territory we’re gonna lose.

    Mack had a superhuman series there. Holy moly. Please reward him with points you losers
  9. BigSlick
    Oh my god did you guys see Parkey fall over on that kick off? Please dear god cut him I pray to you football gods

    Mitch was bailed out on a really really bad play with a flag there I’m glad we’re the kind of offense that can take advantage of such gifts but Oof

    I miss Robbie Gould. :(
  12. BigSlick
    Oh. I guess the Bears are just gonna do everything in their power to lose this one. Cool.
  13. BigSlick
    They beat the Lions pretty handily with a back up QB
  14. BigSlick
    Please don’t make this an excruciatingly close game for no reason that would be annoying

    Cody Parkey needs to be taken behind the barn and out of his misery. Honestly the only thing I could be upset about with this front office is their commitment to this terrible terrible kicker

    Well, to be fair, the three players the Dodgers traded have some intrinsic value, while the players we would like to unload are extremely bad. Even if this is a salary dump, I'm surprised not to hear more substantial names other than Bailey because Puig and Wood are both very valuable players. Puig and Wood aren’t “very valuable” get the hell out of here. They’re okay players. I’d liken Puig to Zobrist and Wood to Monty in terms of trade value. And Homer Bailey is straight up awful. I'll take em.

    Between Lester, Hamels and Darvish, we have 66 million tied up on 3 pitchers who will be either on the other side of 35 or possibly dead. That's what makes me feel worst of all, to be honest.
  18. BigSlick
    i feel burned enough by the heyward and darvish deals now that i feel like if he had/would sign with us he'll immediately break his knee, so its for the best really

    Bryce isn’t gonna sign until horsefeathering February right

    I already feel more confident with him under center than Jay Cutler at any point and I was a Patented Cutler Defender for whatever that’s worth. He still needs plenty of polish but if he avoids injury (that if is a big if given the way he plays) I expect him to be a very solid top 10 QB when he hits his peak. I don’t think he’ll ever be a top 5 Drew Brees type QB, and I guess that sucks from the stand point of the trade and the pick, but he’s a very solid factor and if you can keep an excellent defense around for a while a la the 2014 Seahawks you can snatch a Super Bowl with him. Come to think of it, I think Russell Wilson is a decent comparison.

    I will NEVER stop reminiscing about the 2005 and 2006 Bears
  23. BigSlick
    Weirdly, Kyle Orton ended up having a pretty OK career, while Rex never had a completion percentage over 60% Anyway, we've had a lot of really bad quarterback play in our history
  24. BigSlick
    God....that 2006 Superbowl....After the Hester return I thought for sure this team was going to win it. Basically the rest of the game was a huge kick in the balls. I also thought we were in for a decade of dominance and Rex Grossman developing into a strong top 10 QB. I had this idea that he had a really good 2006, but looking at the numbers, jeez. 52% completion percentage, 23 - 20 TD to INT ratio. Oof, those were far more pedestrian (bordering on bad) numbers than I remember. Also Cedric Benson. Holy moly did he blow chunks.
  25. BigSlick
    I really miss Robbie Gould I also think people have really underrated that 2006 team. That team kicked a bunch of ass.
