I want a young guy on the other side of the line. Sweat is gonna be like...28-29 next year? I want a young, fast, extraordinarily physically talented guy on the other side. But what I "want" doesn't necessarily mean its possible of course.
-
I see Johnson isn’t looking to depend on draft picks for his ‘25 offensive line
-
He certainly was the poster child for angry old white racist dudes who live in another era but I’ll give this to Sanborn: for a very limited player who could never start but be a situational player, he made a decent amount of impact plays. Credit to him.

Make Fun of the Bears' Stadium Woes in Here

Will it be a dome or will it be one of those retractable roof dealies (my hope) -

Spring Training Moves/Transactions Thread
BigSlick replied to Outshined_One's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Honestly didn’t know Justin Turner was still in the league, he wasn’t young when we faced off with him in 2016. Well, it’s a low risk move, hope he’s got something in the tank. -
Jay Cutler has a higher career passer rating
-
Here's a name that I think gets chronically under appreciated: Philip Rivers It goes unremarked upon for the most part but Rivers was a much, much better QB than Eli Manning at the end of the day.
-
i think it happens but its very rare most players just kinda settle into who they were gonna be anyway (this is impossible to debate and i'll hold onto my own ideological position understanding others will disagree)
-
The only person I feel like the "was sacked too much it ruined his career" actually applies to is David Carr, who I harbor an irrational, non-evidence-based belief would have had a reasonable NFL career if he went to anyone other than the expansion Texans.
-
it was actually kind of lost on me just how bad eli manning was for much of his career. i didnt really pay attention to him in new york for the most part but holy moly, not only was he not *good* but he was *actively bad*
-
Here's some more fun with stats: Eli Manning career QB Rating: 84.1 Jay Cutler career QB Rating: 85.3 Mitch Trubisky career QB Rating: 86.0 Justin Fields career QB Rating: 83.9
-
ahhh i have been gotten. this is on me for not noticing the bit earlier
-
Ok this made me look up their stats and find what I think is the funniest stat of all time: Eli Manning Career Record: 117-117 (Aaron Rodgers is 153-87-1) For the record, Aaron Rodgers holds the career best QB Rating in the history of football. Yes, QB Rating is an overall flawed stat but he has the highest one in the history of football. You know what he also has the best career stat (again, in the history of FOOTBALL) - he has the lowest career interception rate. I think that at least puts him in the conversation of being Top 5 QB. Yes.
-
No, I am sorry, you cannot seriously put Eli Manning ahead of Aaron Rodgers. I wouldn't put Roethlisberger ahead of Rodgers either, but thats at least not a ridiculous comparison
-
I don't think Aaron Rodgers is overrated, he's a slamdunk HOF'er who, in his peak, was as good or better than anyone else who's ever played the position. But he's also a total schmuck, weirdo, horsefeathers, and he had more than a couple poor playoff performances. Like the '85 Bears, he almost certainly "should" have won more Super Bowls than he did. He's a top 5 QB all time though. (This is somewhat arguable given how hard it is to compare players across eras and rule changes. I could accept an argument he's not top 5, but I couldn't accept an argument he isn't in the top 10 QBs all time, no matter how you're evaluating era differences)
-
is Rodgers Done now? Is there a place that's a good fit for him? Hilariously, the place that might be the best fit, if they're interested, would be Minnesota. He could follow the exact path that Brett Favre blazed for him. But I imagine they're ready to see what JJ McCarthy can do (I think....not much). So that probably isn't the spot for him.
-
Yeah I really didn't like how they presented the score and crucial info. I think the purpose was to make as much of the field on screen as possible, but it ended up being less legible than a normal presentation
-
cheap owners dont matter!!!!!! enlarge your mind!!!!!! teams don't get to keep the money if they're under the salary cap!!!!!!! stop thinking like this!!!!!
-
i dont get why they did that green screen background for them. Clearly they are in the stadium...why have this strange simulacrum of the French Quarter in New Orleans? Thats not even really like what the French Quarter looks like (not enough trash and drunk people)
-
They’re also gonna need a TE, by the looks of it
-
It’s really too bad you can’t give the MVP award to the entire Philadelphia D Line
-
Mahomes also just had a bad game and the gameplan was awful. Mahomes missed a few open throws (something he never does) and was indecisive. Surely helped by the fact that the Eagles could get a rush with only their DLine and could drop everyone else into coverage. dunno why they didn’t try running the ball to start the game really. Weird game.
-
Now Ditka is gonna die and the Bears will suddenly become offensive juggernauts for the next 50 years and no one will know why
-
I don’t think Virginia was responsible at all for the Bears woes (although letting her nimrod children run the team had been a problem) but part of me hopes her passing inaugurates a new, better, era of Bears football.
