  1. Where do you think he is going?
  2. Big 10 is 8-0 and looks good to get maybe 5-6 teams in the Sweet 16.
  3. Plus, assuming he doesn't "figure it out," he could easily have around 5 or so more years of backup play. So maybe 25 or so million added to all that.
  4. RE: Bosa I see two problems. First, It's not a situation were the Charges are still paying him X Million thus letting a different team pay him next to nothing. Similar to Wilson last year. Instead the 5-7-12 or whatever he signs for will be all risk for the new team. Second, he most likely will break his wrist while signing the new contract and miss 12 games.
  5. EDIT: Just the thought of it has me messing up and double posting.
  6. I'm shocked, just shocked ... Philly fans, well, being Philly fans .... Who would have thought.
  7. The below part was posted on another Bears forum by a user today. He was quoting some article I believe. Not sure how accurate or up to date it is ... so grain of salt. But here’s the wrinkle: The NFL bylaws state that a single lineal family must control 30% of each franchise (which Virginia does via the voting trust). However, when she dies, the voting trust expires and the Bears ownership “will be thinly spread over more than a dozen Halas heirs, without a single person or descendant anywhere close to that 30% threshold.” In the end, it seems very likely that when Virginia passes, the team will be required to consolidate control of at least 30% of the team into a “single wing” of the McCaskey family, potentially including the sale of some equity to outsiders. And that could cause a ton of friction (lawsuits, exits, desires to sell, etc.) if not handled delicately. Traditionally, those issues tend not to pop up until the rubber meets the road (a.k.a. Virginia passes). Everyone will play nice until then, not to rock the boat, but if anyone feels slighted by the direction of the $5 billion company, well … there’s a whole HBO series about it."
  8. Dallas = stupid
  9. So ... It's the middle of year 4 and barring some magical turn around I don't see a good reason for Indiana to keep Mike Woodson. He's had plenty of time and honestly if they did have some magical turn around it would probably only be fools gold. Really hope I am wrong, but I think a new coach is needed next year.
  10. Considering the Bears have exactly one IOL under contract for next year ( Bates ) I would think that the answer is no. However that can easily be outweighed by them thinking they're one ( or two ) upgrades away from the promise land.
  11. There are two playoff teams with more cap space than the Bears along with a few with almost just as much. It doesn't have to be an either or for Smith if he actually hits FA.
  12. Interesting that they gave up on Chris Morgan's approach to fixing Braxton's anchor. Fourth year being a charm and all.
  13. This would be a nightmare. ( The Jeanty part ) I'm all for "IOL hard in FA"
  14. Seems like giving 3 NFL WRs the chance to find the gaps in zone coverage would be just as much of a gamble. If a bring the house blitz was unable to get to or pressure the QB enough to effect the throw then I doubt just bringing one extra and dropping the rest into coverage would have been much better.
  15. Clearly the Redskins need to put together a trade package and trade up to the 10th pick and take Jeanty.
  16. THIS absolutely THIS. ( Both you and Raw's post above ) Of course taking Jeanty @ 10 is beyond stupid, but this is a great year to get an RB in R2 or Preferably R3.
  17. It's time for a new coach.
  18. Yes, and they don't count if it's a person from your own organization i.e. Thomas Brown and the Bears.
  19. While I wouldn't mind seeing Notre Dame publicly sticking their finger in Brian Kelley's eye. I just don't see anyway Ohio State doesn't blow the Irish out. Something like 35-10.
  20. If I remember correctly I believe those three previous losses were at one of those stupid early season weekend tournaments and they were missing a key player due to injury. Looking at some of the games they played and won after that I could see an argument for people discounting those losses somewhat and still viewing them as a top 10 or so team. At least up until this last loss.
  21. stupid bears wrecking draft position for a totally meaningless game.
