Bearstalk

Per Brad Biggs of the Sun-Times Marty Booker has signed a two-year deal wit the Bear.

This is a big pick since we have no 5th rounder and you don't expect much from your 6th & 7th round guys. It's important we get a guy who sticks here.

According to Scott Kascmar, NFL Writer, Jay Cutler is now 4th in the league among active players with 13 career GW TD passes. He is behind Brady and Manning but in front of Rodgers, Eli, and Brees. He also tweeted a chart that says with a minimum of 30 total games, Cutler is 4th *ALL-TIME* in winning percentage (51.4%) in games that are "kept close in the 4th quarter and OT" (he did not say exactly what 'kept close' is).

Cuts are coming in. Darnell Dockett from SF, Da’Quan Bowers and Khaseem Greene from TB, and more.

Aaron Leming ‏@AaronLemingNFL 15m15 minutes ago Per sources: #Bears are close to a deal with WR Eddie Royal. Adam gets his guy....Don't hate it at all. Good WR. Had real good year with Cutler in the past.

A Sun Times article discusses Lovie taking over on D, and goes on to talk about Lovie being "excited" about potential personnel changes, referring to players and not coaches. This led Briggs to wonder if we might not have our sights set on some of the big names in FA on the defensive side of the ball. Now, I know many here want to add the CB from Oakland, but I personally do not believe he would even be considered. We run a scheme that relies on the pass rush, while cover two corners are not usually considered shut down caliber. So while many would like to add a stud CB, I don't see that in the plans. If we are going to make a change to the personnel that w…

Cutler: 20-32, 214 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT Forte: 16 rushes, 66 yards, 3 catches, 32 yards, 1 TD Taylor: 8 rushes, 31 yards Knox: 8 catches, 100 yards, 1 TD Bears 23-16

Can everyone provide names of players and commentators that day the Bears should build around Justin? Derrick Carr Shawn O'Hara Kyle Long George Kittle Brian Urlacher Jay Cutler Chris Long That's a start...

A 9-3 team is playing at a 4-8 team and is only favored by 3? A 5-win disparity and only a 3 point line is pretty interesting. Vegas really thinks this game is going to be close. The Bears couldn't win with a +3 turnover margin and double the TOP, so if they want to win this game they more than likely are going to have to do it without that large of a turnover margin and TOP. DET ended up with more total yards, 8-11 on 3rd Downs, a 5.7 yards per play, so they were way more efficient. Montgomery can't average 6.3 yards a carry and they need to shutdown St. Brown. He always seems to burn the Bears. LaPorta was huge this week but only had 3-18 against the Bears. …

Friday, May 16, 2008 Points of View, May 16, 2008 http://chicagobearsfanforum.com/blog/?p=246 The Bears * Rex Grossman spoke briefly to the Chicago Tribune yesterday. Among other things he expressed gratitude toward the Bears for giving him another opportunity with a one-year deal. Grossman evidently doesn't understand that he's going to get as many chances as he needs until he either succeeds for at least one year and gets a long-term contract or GM Jerry Angelo, who took him in the first round, gets himself fired. Dick Jauron was less loyal to John Shoop. * Lovie Smith answered questions from fans on chicagobears.co…

Shea McClellin - DE - Boise S

And away we go!

This is going to be the hot topic all off-season and maybe into the season. Bears are starting it off correctly by keeping Darnell Wright at RT. That leaves us with a 3 way battle at LT. https://bearswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/bears/2025/05/01/bears-ozzy-trapilo-will-play-left-tackle/83388491007/

Cutler: 22-34, 275 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT Forte: 14 rushes, 56 yards Taylor: 6 rushes, 17 yards Olsen: 4 catches, 46 yards, 1 TD Knox: 6 catches, 78 yards, 1 TD Eagles 26-20

Per Emery presser, all three signed

Drama in the preseason? So far not a great start for the Bears offense.

http://myespn.go.com/blogs/nfcnorth/0-9-14...-the-Bears.html Interesting considering that we just signed Shaffer. That could also mean Shaffer could be moving to Guard or was just a pickup for depth. Interesting to say the least.

i have to admit i have not watched much college ball this year but... if the people who write these draft mags know their arse from a hole in the ground can anyone tell me why we picked forte in the 2nd round?? i quote: Pro Football Draft Ranked #7 - "Runs upright. Takes time to build speed... struggles to make defenders miss in open field. Lacks top end speed. Production is inflated having faced marginal Conference USA competition. Could best fit as a one-back or utility back..." AND he is coming back from a serious injury????? Pro Football Draft Guide Ranked #15 - "More of a three-yards-and-a-cloud-of-dust type... will likely have a spot in the NFL i…
