  1. A bad read that results in a throw IS a bad throw.
  2. What’s the difference? Nobody isn’t playing, Bagent is
  3. Bagent makes short throws because that’s all he CAN do
  4. Im not sure why they would have taken Stroud, everyone was still pretty high on Fields
  5. i dont think anyone thinks they could have cobbled a team last offseason to get to the SB, but a winning record would be nice. Also, Poles wasnt hired last year, hes had 2 offseason to improve the team and has done the opposite
  6. I'm pretty amazed they have 3 wins considering their schedule
  7. My concern is what wrigley stated above; not being able to franchise tag Johnson because Poles feels he has to franchise Sweat instead. That scenario feels far more likely than resigning Johnson at this point; given Johnson was told he could seek his own trade
  8. this is why I'm not terribly hurt by giving up a 2nd for him, but at this point, he's still just a rental and if he costs the Bears their franchise tag, I will be pissed.
  9. who cares about the current roster by itself, Poles got rid of more talent than he's brought in
  10. in a vacuum, I don't hate the Sweat trade. Hes a decent edge and giving up a 2nd doesn't scare me, but if he doesnt get an extension worked out my view changes immediately. But this is kind of the point ^^^^^. Poles, by all appearances, doesn't seem to have a plan. he stripped the cupboard when he arrived and his only answer to replenishing it has been to knee-jerk his way through FA and trades without any long term vision
  11. I think Johnson is a better 3-4 CB than cover 2 (man vs zone), but the lack of int's in his career in general stand out.
  12. right up until they resign Sweat in the offseason, thereby getting their pass rush back AND our 2nd. I mean, you cant put that kind of move past Poles - or lack of move
  13. There are days I’m deeply grateful to not live anywhere near Chicago
  14. You weren’t watching at the point in the game I presume?
  15. Could you? I mean if you were able to, would you? none of that horsefeathers matters tho after that pick, that guy wearing #17 will be lucky to ever throw a Td pass again after that int
  16. In their defense, do you think it would matter,? narratives be damn, the Bears suck
  17. Huh i really thought Bagent could make a difference
