  1. Yeah, resting on your laurels is a pretty strange approach when your previous year’s success hinged on turnover differential and winning close games. Accepting mediocrity at 2/5 OL positions is also an odd choice when strong OL play was such a key strength of last year’s squad.
  2. Dame’s was in like 36 minutes too. Mitchell’s was an OT game, so a little extra opportunity but pretty badass anytime a player is on the court for 50 minutes.
  3. There was a stretch from ‘94 - ‘17 where he was the only player to cross 70. So against that backdrop, obviously it’s super impressive. But Amick’s weird deification of Kobe and his hold on the 2nd highest scoring game of all time is super weird. Good for Bam for etching his name into the record books.
  4. Really? There’s been 5 70+ point games in the last 3 years.
  5. I’m embarrassed for Sam Amick. What a pathetic article.
  6. Oh for sure. Hopefully he has an eye for defensive talent.
  7. Unfortunately, Poles track record doesn’t suggest he’s capable of drafting well enough on Day 2 and 3 to avoid turning to free agency to fill out his roster. Here’s hoping he magically gets better with his 5th draft.
  8. There are pretty quick and low consequence ways that the Bears can open up more cap space. Poles has chosen not to. Dayo and Jarrett are bad deals, but they’re not really preventing the team from doing more in FA than they have.
  9. Yeah, I like the Bush and Bryant moves but I think as of right now, this team is slightly worse than they were two months ago.
  10. Nope, looking for Gervon Dexter. Many weeks of his career I’ve found myself looking for him. Alas, he was nowhere to be found.
  11. Mostly agree, but it’s frustrating that we’re heading into year 4 of Poles and every FA period and draft that passes without improvement on the DLine end every time it’s just “welp whaddya gonna do? FAs are expensive. The draft board didn’t fall our way.” At a certain point you gotta just find a way to fix it.
  12. He’s not a disruptive player. He doesn’t draw doubles, disappears for multiple game stretches every year. Slow reaction time. Fine piece to have on the team, but not a top end player.
  13. Every year people clamor to trade down, but the Bears need quality, not quantity. They are still low on top tier talent. I don’t need to see more Shemar Turners and Gervon Dexters. Also, Poles’ track record outside of the first round is pretty poor. Keep the first rounder and grab the best non QB / TE / Wr available.
  14. I like the Bush and Bryant signings. You can’t fill every hole via free agency. But it sucks that we’re worse at center and LT and haven’t improved the pass rush.
  15. I’ve never been a big Braxton Jones guy so I’m bringing my own biases, but even pre-injury he got blown up enough that I considered him safely below average. I was open to him as a stopgap before we went with the below average stopgap in Bradbury. Now we’re one injury to our three worthwhile linemen away from a pretty dire situation.
  16. Pipped by Benedet who was then Pipped by Trapilo? The rare double Pipp!
  17. Our solution at LT is the guy that got benched for poor performance last year? Cool.
  18. Yeah I don’t think the falcons did anything devious here. Cunningham got a title promotion, presumably a raise, and is said to be the lead decision maker for the falcons. Why this doesn’t result in comp picks for the bears is beyond me, but not sure I buy the Falcons were angling to screw the Bears.
  19. Did you fall for another fake account? I don’t see this anywhere.
  20. Makes sense, but Bradbury makes swing IOL money and isn’t very good. I’m still hoping the Bears draft a C and the plan is for Bradbury to keep the seat warm for the first portion of the season.
