  1. so did dan orlovsky in that clip the other day (i posted it in the week 2 thread but ill post here) and this
  2. you're crazy thinking those 2 above Briggs. I'd say Hester, Briggs, Kruetz, Tillman in that order Really? I think opposite order after Hester. Hester, Tillman, Kruetz, Briggs. I don't think the latter 2 really belong. Both are pretty close, IMO, but I don't think quite uniquely good enough for HOF worthiness. Tillman's case will be really helped by the fact that his name is heard every week whenever someone knocks out a fumble. Hester is the pure definition of uniquely good. He should be 1st ballot, IMO. Yeah, to me, those two are hall of very good guys. And that's not to say that I think the HOF should be that exclusive. I'm just going off of how it is.
  3. Huh? You think the OL was good yesterday? I think the Browns D is going to pose a much bigger challenge than the Bengals. pff does *shrug*
  4. He does have connections and at the very least is buddies with Adam Jahns. He also ridiculously seemed to think Nagy was going to sit Fields all year like a week or two ago.
  5. right imagine how allen robinson, stud WR who has never had a decent QB and is playing for a contract feels. or even someone like mack who obviously only has so many seasons left. if the players want fields and dalton is out there losing games (which he will for as long as he plays), it's going to get ugly. that said, i don't really think that's how it's going to play out. i think he'll play a little more each week and i think he'll be starting by week 4 or 5.
  6. I can't believe it's only one week in and this horsefeathers is already starting... It would be hilarious of Nagy, after finally getting his own (stud) QB, got himself canned by dying on this hill and pissing everyone off on the team and possibly his own coaching staff.
  7. it's happening faster than i expected
  8. right that horsefeathers just is not going to play out that way because dalton won't be competent enough for it to be possible. they would revolt.
  9. when he chases a guy into the end zone at least we know how many points to add im here all night
  10. i am showing people the posts of the people picking the first round exit with dalton scenario and we are laughing at you
  11. Moving up the draft board for a pick they don't own. Brilliant. there's more than one round to the draft...so you'd be moving up every pick. not that this even needs to be a consideration for this to be an obvious choice.
  12. it doesn't need to guarantee anything what the hell does a first round exit with andy dalton guarantee? they're both failed seasons and one gives you a horsefeathering rookie of the year at quarterback going forward. it doesn't need to guarantee anything to be a far better place to be in than the bears ever have been at that position.
  13. what the hell is wrong with you people picking the dalton scenario you absolutely take the justin fields proving he's good and winning offensive ROY over a first round exit with andy horsefeathering dalton and still not knowing what fields is and wasting an entire year of potential development. what the hell am i taking horsefeathering crazy pills that said, if justin fields is *that* good right away, the bears aren't going to be bad this year.
  14. I saw that and considered it a total no-brainer.
  15. wait, you dont want the Bears to not start Dalton or you dont want the controversy? I hope that it would be true, I agree with David, start Fields. what the hell did you read in that post lol
  16. what the hell bizarro world football coverage are you guys actually watching?
  17. Every national broadcast Cowboys game frames them as a perennial contender while they only refer to the Bears struggles at QB. The fact that Dallas has had 2 nationally respected guys at QB while the Bears have had none makes a lot of people think the Cowboys have won a hell of a lot more in the same timeframe. When I brought this up a couple years ago people were aghast at the comparison, just assuming Dallas had a lot more success than they did. you must be watching different broadcasts than i am but yes, the bears qb struggles are talked about ad nauseum (so is their history with defenses and linebackers and blah blah blah)
  18. substanceBears have done as well as Dallas but for some reason people pretend dallas has been a quality program this whole time and the bears a joke. The Lovie era is grossly undervalued. Who gives a horsefeathers about style points when it’s no better at the end of the day? From my perspective, people make fun of the last 25 years of Dallas more than anybody. For example, the meme that went around showing that Brady has more NFC Championship game appearances than Dallas does during Brady's career. The Garrett era was a constant joke. I agree that the Lovie era is underrated in the national stage though. i didn't even see your reply when i wrote the above...just had seen jersey and wrigley's quoted stuff. now i'm not even sure when those posts are from lol.
  19. who pretends dallas has had a quality program? they've been a national joke for like 20-25 years. they get ratings (so do the bears), but in my experience the cowboys just get made fun of a lot. if anything, romo took more crap than he deserved. garret was constantly criticized and the mccarthy hiring was ridiculed too. at best, they come off a little better than the bulls have since their 90s glory. maybe it's just the people i talk sports with, though?
  20. Yeah that 2011 team seemed to be on fire right when Cutler got hurt. Maybe its the Bears not the Giants who beat the Patriots that year if Cutler doesn't try to make that tackle. 2012 they started 7-1 but seemed to run out of gas. I went to that Titans game in Nashville 55-10 or something like that, what a party that was. yeah, the offense seemed to really be finding its stride when cutler broke his thumb. i know martz had flaws and all and didn't get along great with cutler, but i was disappointed when they replaced him with tice. things were trending upward until they had to play caleb.
