  1. Yeah no, he’s not anywhere close to that good
  2. The bears will be favorites two more times this year and 4/5 winnable games. Carolina has 3-4 winnable games and no motivation to tank. if panthers win this weekend, maybe they also trip up Tampa twice and suddenly it’s not outside the realm.
  3. I wasn’t that excited about the new manager but now I am.
  4. If he rolls off 8 quality games in a row it’s a no brainer that he comes back, unless the Carolina pick is #1 and you are in love with the top guy. Then you trade fields in the offseason. If he continues to flow between bad and good games, it all depends on the Carolina pick and which qb you like. Bringing Fields backs on final year, not picking up 5th year option and letting 2024 play out is not the worst option if you don’t have the ideal situation to replace him. worst case is bears and Carolina picks are outside the top 5 and you allow poles to trade up for the new guy.
  5. Theoretically it affects nothing, except if you have a baseball operations budget.
  6. The cubs tanked. Ross was nothing special, but they didn’t try to win that season. Residual productivity and weak competition kept them in the race, but they were cutting corners and bailing on the present.
  7. Dude lost his wife and high paying gig in the covid era, the feds might wanna keep tabs on him this coming January 6
  8. I would not trade down. I’d take two best players available and try to build an all around solid team then keep taking swings at QB.
  9. Some things that make you go hmmm This is the Bears only home game in November. The Bears and Panthers are a combined 3-14 and their losing ways are likely to continue as both teams missed the apparent gem of the 2023 draft class. The Bears are 3 point favorites, which seems like something they should cover, but they are not a reliable favorite. Gardner Minshew beat the Panthers by two touchdowns, but those 14 points were scored by the defense and the Colts only threw for 127 yards. Bagent could probably dink and dunk to a win, and shouldn’t have to throw a ton in comeback style. The defense needs to step up and not allow Young to pick them apart. Could be a grand time for Sweat to introduce himself to the home crowd, because after this week they likely don’t have a win on the schedule until Christmas Eve.
  10. And most of fields career has been spent with zero weapons and no line.
  11. And Young with another bad TaINT
  12. Why are we pretending 17 points is an accomplishment? Fields has a much better resume. It’s not just 3 games vs 3 years. Fields has done more in his life. Not the least of which was surviving last season when his GM openly set him up to fail.
  13. Cardinals look to have a pretty solid grasp on number 1 pick. The giants are going to be right there along with the Patriots. Tampa and Tennessee could also muddy the waters at the top. the Bears pick could definitely slide closer to 10 by end of season. Gonna be devastated when Poles trades up
  14. Totally missed a wide open receiver in end zone from ~10 yards away
  15. Getting flashbacks to my college years, with the lousy giants / raiders game as only afternoon matchup on tv locally. They seemingly did a good job of not making the ny market sit through these awful late afternoon games
  16. Young just threw another ugly TaINT, we cannot lament him not being a bear
  17. He’s definitely nfl backup capable and would he fine running a team like the eagles or the 2000s patriots.
  18. It’s very Chicago of you to complain about fields after BagINT throwing away the game
  19. At least I have New Orleans defense in 3 leagues
  20. Driving back from hockey tournament, sounds like Bagent and mooney are having a game and defense is doing nothing. Is sweat playing?
  21. That’s one way to get up to the minimum. if you’re willing to throw around those kinds of guarantees, why are you trading draft picks in a losing season and why weren’t you signing impact free agents the past two years?
  22. People who keep blaming past regimes failures are going to do the same nonsense for whoever replaces Poles. He’s been a disaster and I cannot imagine how anybody thinks he’s the guy to get this team out of the dumps. he made a mediocre team much worse.
  23. The bigger issue is the player isn’t close to being worth the franchise designation. but I guess when you don’t spend money anywhere else it’s overpaying doesn’t matter
