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.
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.
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
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.
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.
So following a new stadium at whatever location they choose, what do we think the per person cost will be to watch a Bear game? Ticket, food, drink, travel and I think it's going to be somewhere around $700 a person.
So they're completely awful now, but they waited way too long to tank. The season ends today and they'd have the 9th worst record. The best you could reasonably ask for is that they fall to 6th, but most likely end up 7 or 8. It's just constant half measures and when decisions are made, they're made years too late.
The same people who horsefeathers on Pritzker for reckless spending are the same people mad at him for refusing to throw nearly a billion dollars of taxpayer money at the Bears, 20ish years after they threw a bunch of money at a stadium renovation that blew up in their faces spectacularly.
Darryn Peterson openly taking himself out of games at halftime to avoid injury and manage his workload is going to start a really bad trend. There's no way I'm using the 1st or 2nd overall pick on a guy like that.
I certainly wouldn't be supporting GB, I'll probably just fall off of following football. I just don't follow any teams outside of Illinois. In my eyes supporting the Bears in Indiana is no different than supporting the Colts.
