  1. Bowman's injury is head instead of shoulder, damn.
  2. Looks like Bowman will be ok by next week
  3. To practice coverage. that sounds insane. It makes sense though. They get less practice time now after the new CBA, and it's a short offseason already. The practice time that they do get is mostly spent on offense and defense, not ST. So use preseason games to practice. And touchbacks are no help in determining anything. I actually thought it was a pretty slick idea. I'm not worried about Gould kicking so many touchbacks they don't get adequate practice. I'd rather they get real game-type practice. And if people forgot, this should remind them that Taylor is, maybe, the 4th best RB on the team. I only caught one, but he really beat his man on it and grabbed the QB in what should have been the pocket.

  5. How will they do in 2011?
  6. The (bears) announcers just called the offense "sharp as a tack"
  7. So Castro needs 44 hits in 43 games for 200 hits
  8. lol Cutler's 1-1 for 0 is a 79.2 QB rating
  9. So why are the Bears kicking off from the 30?
  10. This year's offense: get the receivers out, have the line collapse, and the QB runs for all the yards
  11. Can we cut Taylor now?
  12. Were you expecting it to? Bad players after a really short practice period?
  13. And hospital systems bought all of the ad space for the game
  14. Cutler's line for the night: 1 for 1, 0 yards, 12ish yards running. Taylor with the only three rushes in the first quarter (Forte got the 0 yard pass) for 3 yards
  15. You don't want to be tackled by having one guy on your legs, two grabbing you by your shoulders, and a guy with a running start slamming you from the front.
  16. Got to love a hold+two players being free to sack the QB on a 4 man rush
  17. Why haven't we cut Taylor yet, anyway?
  18. Why would we send him specifically to the AL? He's not a DH, he's a pitcher who's relatively good at hitting.
  19. Is he a citizen? He could certainly get permanent resident status if he wanted to, but I have no idea if he ever bothered.
  20. Nice comments after the article etc
  21. I do not see how you're putting the two of them in the same group. Z is more expensive, worse at this point, and has a habit of going nuts in ways that both harm the team and make for easy stories. Aramis is living up to his contract by playing good baseball and is otherwise basically unnoticeable.
  22. I'm watching preseason football between two teams I do not care about instead of a Cubs game. Blech.
  23. Fox just showed that when the kickoff line was moved from the 35 to the 30 in 1994 the touchback % went from 27% to 7%. I'm guessing we're going to find that kickers have much better legs now. edit: 25 teams had better than 7% in 2010, with 3 having more than 27% and the average being over 15%.
