  1. He doesn’t play in structure. He doesn’t have to either and Ben game plans for him differently. He was top 5 in ADOT last year. “Working the system” works against weaker opponents in the regular season when there’s a clear coaching advantage. Did they not just watch Mahomes win 3 superbowls?
  2. They profile really well for postseason success in a weak AL. The Rays aren’t nearly as good as their record and the Yankees might not have Judge and he won’t he 100% if they even do. It’s a possibility.
  3. Can’t depend on them. If they were healthy and rotation locks then maybe there’s a reality where they they spend top $ on Skubal. Right now, they’ll need 4 free agent starters just to be on the safe side, there’s no farm reinforcements either so that’s more $ used on depth, and of course you’ll likely be without your second best hitter with at least one corner outfield spot to fill and they sure as horsefeathers won’t sign Arozerena if they’re not paying Suzuki. $40-$45 million/year for Skubal? Their competitive window has closed a bit.
  4. Cubs aren’t sitting on a pile of unspent money with a core full of young, pre arb top prospects like 2015-16. The time to go all in was the 24-26 offseasons. I’d be stunned if they wrote Skubal a blank check when they have this many needs and don’t have the future financial flexibility. Unless Tom gives Jed an unlimited allowance.
  5. It helps when you outgain a team by 335 yards. They need to capitalize on red zone opportunities.
  6. Yep. Must win game next week. They have to kick those horsefeathers while they’re down in this once in a 20 year opportunity and flip the rivalry back.
  7. I also think they miss Dalman. I’d like to see more play action and throws in general.
  8. Bears just need to clean up some of the red zone slop. They’ve left so many points on the board.
  9. It’s like choosing between Dahmer and Gacy.
  10. They’ve out gained them by 200 yards too.
  11. Drafted Taylor in the fourth round and the Iets have this guy.
  12. Bagent will be in the league for a while because he’s a quick learner who can grasp an offense. As a backup. Chase Daniel, Josh Johnson, Case Keenum etc all possess that. Meatballs think shredding a fourth string defense in the third preseason game translates to success against NFL starters.
  13. The last 3 weeks they’ve failed to score on the goal line. They need some size at running back.
  14. This definitely has Cub game vibes where they’re outhitting a team 10-2 and they’re only up by 2 runs.
  15. Yeah, He can’t make those throws. That’s also why Caleb doesn’t throw picks in addition to his quick release and footwork.
