  1. Why didn't Trestman announce the change during his P.C? Unless the call to bench Cutler came straight from the top?? I don't know...there are so many unanswered questions about this team, particularly the last 2 weeks. I wish someone could get to the bottom of everything and write a book someday. Trestman is in over his head and has a bad coaching staff and all those guys are looking to cover their asses and shift blame. Not much more than that.
  2. Why didn't Trestman announce the change during his P.C? Unless the call to bench Cutler came straight from the top?? To avoid answering questions about it. Plus, you don't announce changes at PC, you announce it to the team and have a press conference to discuss it after the players know. Once the players know, the media knows anyway.
  3. Yep everyone short of a Peyton Manning gets turned on once they are paid- in every sport. It really depends on your definition of "franchise" though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It's not about him being turned on. It's about being able to allocate the money elsewhere on the roster. Yeah, that's my point. Russell won't look as good when he's taking $16m away from teammates.
  4. Russell Wilson is a franchise qb until he gets paid like one. Competent qb play out of cheap draft picks and surround him with talent is a brilliant short term strategy.
  5. I believe Emery still supports Cutler and will be keeping him after they jettison Trestman. Don't confuse Trestman giving up on Cutler as the Bears giving up on Cutler.
  6. Im guessing with the recent [expletive], Cutler asked out to some extent. Or could be Trestman trying to save his job by showing another QB can get it snd push the blame to Jay (would have Clausen and McCown as evidence). I'm fairly certain this is trestman saying WTF do I have to lose? If he wins a game with jimmy he can blame it all on cutler and enough idiots would buy it to potentially make a difference. This is also why trestman needed to be fired earlier. Letting a lame duck make meaningful decisions is stupid, but also status quo for this organization.
  7. nhl is also streaming it
  8. I assume this was the same report based on a Bernstein tweet we discussed yesterday.
  9. Soler had to outproduce Ruggiano's 0.4 even if he had 1/3 the time. Wait, didn't Coghlan outproduce him as well?
  10. I don't know why anyone would think that. They are 100% certain that Bryant is going to play a position he has never played even though he just spent an entire minor league season at 3B? That doesn't make any sense. It's left field. You don't need experience to play it. You do need some to play it competently.
  11. Time to move the Rays to Havana
  12. Wow, Detroit opened at -4.5 it already jumped to -7? It opened at 4.5 before MNF.
  13. Not sure why LOL, that has basically been the mindset of every player that has ever played, aside from Pat Tillman.
  14. https://twitter.com/Ky1eLong/status/545006070188752896 Kyle Long has his eyes on the prize.
  15. To me, "just wait a few months before committing to a long term LF" is a bit more reasonable Guys might not be available in a few months. You can't choose timing.
  16. it was mentioned in the other game thread
  17. Their older receivers were also younger last year and less slowed by age/injury. Teams adjusted to the system and that was one of the things they were able to exploit.
  18. depends on what you consider old. maybe not the 78 year olds, but there are plenty of 55 year olds.
  19. Scarily, I always remember that without any hesitation. I've read it 5 times now and still have no recollection.
