  1. I would not be shocked at all if the season gets pushed back. There is a lock out, the fact that it has gotten this far means that is a very real possibility.
  2. acknowledging all the downside, I really wouldn't mind it, and think he could put together a quality staff given his ties to both college and NFL teams. The league has already run through all of the hot young prospects.
  3. I didn't realize he has that much left on his contract. But how often are worthwhile trades made? What could you get for him, a 3rd and a average DE? Why not just keep him at least through 2022 and worry about filling the other talentless positions rather then creating another hole? Just my humble opinion, but it's a bad look for a one of the new FO's first moves to trade their best pass rusher, a franchise-record pass rusher. I'd be shocked and dismayed. Shocked and dismayed I say! Seriously though, if they did I'd want to know their plan to put pressure on QBs. I feel like there's not a good answer. Presumably, the plan would be to support the offense as much as possible, without too much concern over wins and losses early in the new regime's run. They probably wouldn't mind losing a ton in 2022, if they get Fields right and score points. Then you fix your defense with the 2023 draft.
  4. Isn't it sad that's a real possibility? I do not think it is a real possibility. The only possible chance is if Fields has a HOF performance. I said going into the season I thought there wasn't a playoffs or you're fired situation here. What they needed to do was make the offense look capable. Losing games 34-29 wasn't going to doom them, necessarily. But the offense has been crap all season, including in that game yesterday that was won by Glennon's incompetence. If they hang a 50-burger on the Vikings and Fields throws for 300+ yards, runs for a bunch with no turnovers, I could see a situation where George looks at the progress as justification to allow Nagy one more season. But his contract is up after next season, and if he hasn't already signed a cheap extension in secret, they aren't going to bring him back in a lame duck situation. The only other scenario is if they do hire a guy like Trace Armstrong as the big boss, and he decides to take a year to evaluate things, and chooses not to fire his client right away. That would be a strange choice.
  5. I feel you haven’t heard a thing Tessitore has said all night. I’m at the game so no.
  6. He seems fine with it
  7. Kmet is worthless. That list is small, and every team has a group like that “making things happen”. This team is extremely light on talent. Secondary is weak. Pace gets caught desperate to fill holes and overspends to do it. He’s a poor strategist. Football is filled with guys that can spot a player. You need guys who can properly fill an NFL roster with salary cap restraints. And a guy who can identify coaching talent. Pace has failed miserably at this job.
  8. aTm backing out of Gator Bowl with virus outbreak
  9. Was she on BrandMeier’s show or Kevin Matthews?
  10. They needed touchdowns.
  11. He was pretty bad in the 1st half. Loved some of the stuff he did but there was plenty to criticize.
  12. neat but this is the thread about the impending doom of tonight's bears game
  13. That’s why the mafia donates to churches
  14. It felt pretty obvious this is what he was doing. He regretted taking the job from the start. He can probably take 2 years away from the game and will be highly sought after again.
  15. Caveat, there is no such thing as a cool billionaire. He still seems cool Tons of early success but left the team at its peak. Berated underlings and allowed spousal abusers to stay in the organization. Not sure if he ever kicked a player but one of his players did lose a leg. Lot of similarities here.
  16. I don't think you can point to alternating home/away games as an unfair scheduling situation. It's not like the Bears would benefit from a bunch of home games in a row, or a long road trip. It's weird, but not a disadvantage.
  17. For the record, whenever anyone has "horsefeathers" in a quote, I like to really imagine the person (your wife in this case) actually using the word horsefeathers. Makes every post funnier. I'll introduce "horsefeathers" to her tonight I bet you will Panama red
  18. I'm assuming most fans were like me and were assuming he'd take the cowards path there. When people show you who they are, believe them. And I believe Nagy when he has shown repeatedly his conservative style.
