  1. Definitely don’t love seeing Mervis up in this situation edit: I’m so good at reverse jinxes
  2. Imanaga has 2 ER allowed in 4 starts for a 0.86 ERA Crawford has 2 ER allowed in 5 starts for a 0.66 ERA Matchup of 2 pitchers pitching incredibly well though I would say Crawford has pitched better overall. The weak spot for Crawford appears to be control. Imanaga has allowed just 2 walks all year while Crawford has allowed 3+ walks in 3 of his 5 starts. Some pretty great starts for Crawford though 6 IP, 7 H, 1 ER, 6 K 5.2 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 6 K 5 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 6 K 4.2 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 5 K 6 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 7 K Sox also throwing Houck on Sunday with his sparking 1.65 ERA so far this year. Saturday looks like a bullpen game for the Sox, but the Cubs havent announced a starter yet since its Hendricks' spot in the rotation. Guessing its Ben Brown.
  3. Where are the Bears biggest holes at this point? OLine depth (not necessarily the starters) and the DLine? Guessing the Bears try to grab a Dlineman with one of their remaining picks and BPA for the other. Then wait out the remaining FA market to pick up another guy similar to Ngakoue last year? Here are the remaining top FA Edge and Interior guys per some list I googled. Obviously there are also potential casualties during training camp too: Edge: Emmanuel Ogbah Yannick Ngakoue Carl Lawson Jerry Hughes Charles Harris Dawuane Smoot Bud Dupree Tyus Bowser Marquis Haynes Rasheem Green Markus Golden Shaq Lawson Interior: Calais Campbell Hassaan Ridgeway Lawrence Guy Bryan Mone Linval Joseph Al Woods Mike Purcell Tyson Alualu
  4. It was always lazy analysis. Unless you believe that the McCaskeys are the ones ruining QBs, there are no other constants in place for all these QBs. Mark Hatley believing that Cade McNown was the answer at QB has nothing to do with Poles taking Caleb Williams. The emotional fan side in me has a hard time envisioning a good Bears QB because we've just never seen it other than little flashes here and there, but logically there's no reason for Chicago to be a QB graveyard than just bad luck and bad GMs/coaches.
  5. I’d still sign Keenan Allen to an extension. A short one that we can get out of it needed without too much damage but I’m not going to complain about 3 great WRs. The Texans have Diggs, Collins and Tank Dell. The Seahawks have Metcalf, Lockett and JSN. The only concern is when DJ Moore inevitably starts pushing for an extension due to being vastly underpaid.
  6. I guess the world isn’t ready for a white cornerback in the NFL. Can’t believe Cooper DeJean wasn’t a 1st round selection.
  7. How have they not fired the manager yet? I get that it’s largely not his fault that they are this bad and that firing him won’t change anything in the short term but I feel like you have to do something. The guy brings nothing to the table and you need to show your fans you give a horsefeathers
  8. Hook this to my veins What the horsefeathers was all this horsefeathers about character concerns, the more I see and hear him the more likable he becomes
  9. Blackhawks also locked up a good young defenseman on a solid deal. And the white Sox only lost by 3
  10. He was probably more talking about Dallas Turner
  11. Neither was Ryan Pace
  12. i wish there was a way the Bears could jump back into the 1st round and take a defensive player. They're literally all still available and we're halfway through the 1st round
  13. Bo Nix is insane at 12.
  14. Only on days he plays the Bears. I'm heartbroken to some degree but I'll still root for him...if he went to the Packers its a different story.
  15. What is the longest we’ve ever gone without a defensive player selected in a draft? On to pick 11 and still waiting.
  16. Caleb Williams D’Andre Swift Roschon Johnson DJ Moore Keenan Allen Rome Odunze Cole Kmet Gerald Everett Obviously the QB has to hit but holy horsefeathers Poles created a monster offense. Unreal
  17. We got him! https://x.com/bradbiggs/status/1783664599180419558?s=46&t=0_jG0mfAmSwG-21Uluk7Vw (not embedding. bears drafted rome)
  18. I want Rome but the Bears have a shot to draft the first offensive and first defensive player in the draft
  19. Holy horsefeathers Falcons are taking Penix
  20. Same. I dont hate the rumored Byron Murphy pick but I think they can trade down and still get him.
  21. I should have added the Bears might take the Bears out of their misery by having a chance to take Rome and going with Murphy or Olu
  22. any chance the falcons go for Dallas Turner at 8?
  23. Do Titans or Falcons take the Bears out of our WR misery?
  24. I would have taken 5-2 on this homestand before it started. Sucked to split the Marlins series but they recovered.
  25. Joe Borowski is right. Dude gets himself in trouble and then gets out of it. SWEEP
