What is this lazy ass play calling?
-
So they're a 200M team who is going to need to beat projections to win 80 games. Smart spending at its finest.

Chicago Bears Offseason Thread (the tank must payoff)
Tryptamine replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in Other Sports
Top 2 pending ol fa off the board, arguably the best OL in the nation isn't going to enter the draft. There's suddenly a lot less wiggle room for putting together a strong OL even with a ridiculous amount of money available. -
If the Ricketts are looking for one move to sever what remaining ties I have to this team, adding Bauer would get that done.
-
So we're going into the season with Seiya as the big bat. Yikes.
-
So they've chosen to go a worse version of the Lovie Smith theory. Don't give up many runs, but score even fewer.

Correa to the Giants 13/350 (Deal Nixed Due to Medicals)

Swoop in Jed. 5/175 -
Conforto is kind of the last shot at a big bat, unless you think Mancini is.
-
Pitching solid, defense very good, offense horrendous.
-
Every Bear that means anything for the future got hurt today. Fields, Sanborn, Johnson and Jenkins.
-
Velus Jones just sucks.
-
Is he hurt? If not he’s got to go. Nope, he tested the wind and signaled that he couldn't make it.
-
I honestly think Fields gets hit more as a passer than as a runner.
-
So Santos decided he had no chance at a 48 yard field goal into the wind. Add kicker to the positions to fill.
-
He's trying to prevent the upset. Gotta get that #2 pick.
-
Whitehair with sack #2 allowed
-
This pretty much where I'm at. It's not the guy I wanted, but at least the contract is decent.
-
I just can't think of anyway to fix things that isn't going to take 3 to 5 years. They're like the 2020 Cub team but Heyward is on year 1 of his deal.
-
If the mutant option means Bellinger will mutate into someone who can hit I like it, guessing Levine meant to write mutual option. Stop taking away what little joy this offseason is bringing me
-
Market inefficiency?
-
I think somewhere in the 9-12 range is going to be where the farm averages. I remember seeing some as low as 16.
-
Waiting until the trade deadline before everyone was a FA certainly didn't do anything to help with that. If he makes those moves before the 2021 season we're looking a whole lot better. By all accounts Jed killed the 2021 deadline. He got PCA, Alcantara, Kilian and Canario. I know we’re all pissed at Jed now but to think he didn’t do a great job in returns in 2021 is insane and the system is also in really good shape and on the rise. It’s far from average. He absolutely did, given the circumstances. I just think it's reasonable to believe a full year would have gotten substantially more.

When you only have to watch 7 full games to beat the number... I’m not sure I watched a full game start to finish in 2022. I did not. A few times I watched a couple innings, but that was about the extent of it. -
Hurts is going to absolutely torch this defense; I see no way they keep the Eagles under 30. Fields is going to have to carry them with his legs to make this even competitive. 38-21.
