  1. It's legitimately amazing how often I see them leading in the 2nd or 3rd period and I come back and they've lost.
  2. A first? God no, like I'm legitimately not sure I'd do a third. That guy might completely destroy the locker room vibe.
  3. Nebraska with the hard choke to get to OT, same guy misses back to back 1 and 1s with under 30 seconds to go.
  4. Well that's a horrific idea unless he's severely discounted
  5. This Illinois team is going to be lucky if they get to the sweet 16. Unless Wagler is going off, they're just so damn mediocre.
  6. I'm somewhere between whelmed and underwhelmed by the Bradbury pick up. The one plus is gives the Bears a lot more flexibility with which to use their remaining resources now.
  7. I mean their left guard and left tackle got far more abused in the Superbowl than the center did. I thought I remembered reading Will Campbell gave up a record amount of QB pressures.
  8. The shouldn't be forced into cutting players like this while they have a QB on a rookie deal. They have zero safeties, basically zero LB, they badly need edge, dl, lt and center and next year they're going to have to throw 50M annually at Caleb. Unless they expecting 4 or 5 day 1 starters out of the draft, I'm not sure how they expect to address it all.
  9. Given the cap restrictions and the fairly large amounts of needs, I think we're 50/50 to go into this season better than the last. It really is inexcusable for the cap situation to be this bad while Caleb is still on a rookie contract.
  10. Also it would be super fun to laugh at Cardinal fans
  11. Don't like hearing from someone with team that the Bears don't have the resources to address left tackle. Really sounds like we're gonna have to hope that Benedet steps it up.
  12. I'm starting to waiver on even giving up a 1st for him let alone two. It's just an enormous amount of money and resources to throw at one spot when Safety, DT, LB and LT are all must address.
  13. Not having those 2 3rds for this draft is absolutely killing me
  14. I am so unimpressed with most of our pitchers so far. All the usual spring training caveats, but damn...
  15. I keep seeing the same 2 guys mocked to the Bears. DT Caleb Banks and DT Kayden McDaniel, There are rare mocks out there with DT Lee Hunter, but right now if I'm picking for the Bears it's safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren. I think the upside he brings is far more significant than the other 3.
  16. Reinsdorf has been bailed out by Jordan and a complete fluke 1 year hot streak by the White Sox in the playoffs. Without Jordan he's amongst the worst owners in US sports history.
  17. I have turned from super skeptical when they drafted him to a Kepley fanboi in record time. There's a fair bit more pop there then I thought.
  18. If Kiran Amegadjie isn't ready to see the field in 2025, I think it's time to move on. Guy is in year 3, if he's still nothing but an emergency fill in then just open up the roster spot
  19. Just parroting what the 2 guys I've listened to have said, one of them on espn radio a day or two ago
  20. From what was being said, there really aren't any plug and play LT that are going to be available. They're all going to be project guys who you're going to want to sit for a year.
  21. So after a bunch of listening it sounds like this draft is very strong with LB, Safety, interior linemen and nose tackles. It's extremely weak in QB and lacks impact talent depth at EDGE and OT. I think there's a pretty good chance the Bears are going safety or LB at #25. Edge sounds like it's going to have to come via FA or trade.
  22. And still with the 9th worst record. They waited way too long.
  23. Yeah that Tyler Austin thing is working out super well. I think it's 50/50 at this point if he ever takes an AB as a Cub.
  24. Average. I imagine you could go to a game sans food/drink with horsefeathers seats for like $200-300
  25. Another game we can't watch eh?
