Devin, you are and forever will be, ridiculous! We love you! Thank you so much for all the joy!

I read where Kon Early who was cut and is playing for the Jets this year and is doing well since he got there, he will be a POTENTIAL FREE AGENT at 6'4" 275, could take McPhees place at OLB Career Stats SEASON TEAM GAMES TACKLES INTERCEPTIONS FUMBLES G GS TOTAL SOLO AST SCK SFTY PDEF INT YDS AVG LNG TDS FF FR TOTAL 90 53 37 15.0 0 14 2 16 -- 9 0 6 2 2017 NYJ 12 4 14 11 3 1.0 -- 9 1 9 9 9 0 0 -- 2016 CAR 16 6 32 19 13 5.0 -- 3 1 7 7 7 0 2 -- 2015 CAR 16 9 32 15 17 5.0 -- 2 -- -- -- -- -- 3 2 2014 CAR 15 0 12 8 4 4.0 -- 0 -- -- -- -- -- 1 -- Also I heard there is turmoil in Houston between O'Brien and the owner, he may be available as a head coa…

This is easily the most entertaining OG highlight film I've ever watched. I know many here are fans of McGlinchey early in the 1st but I see slow feet so I'm less enthusiastic and I think his draft stock will drop as get further into the evaluation process. His neighbor Nelson on the other hand is the only OG I recall seeing slide across the face of the QB late to pick up a blitzing CB/S. He has plenty of power to pancake players as well, which he does over and over in this 2016 highlight film. He's talented enough to be scheme versatile. I'd like to find some 2017 highlights, and of course entire game film, but that will show up soon. My question is where do you v…

https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/pro-3...vations-week-13 Chicago Bears: On his 65 third-down attempts, quarterback Mitchell Trubisky’s average of 9.6 yards per attempt ranks second among 32 starting signal-callers, while his passer rating of 103.7 ranks fourth. Through 13 weeks, he’s the only starting quarterback to have not thrown an interception on any of his third-down pass attempts. ------------------- The sample size is more than big enough to be significant. Then there was this article published before the Bengals game... http://www.thetenyardline.com/2017/12/08/m...-on-third-down/ ------------------- Passing chart against Bengals …

Fuller and Amukamara are free agents. Cooper has 2 years left on his contract. He will cost $5.5 million against the cap next year or the can cut him costing $1 million of dead cap space. What do you do? Peace

Did he even play today? Might as well cut the guy because he is as good as gone at the end of the season. Gentry has seen more action than him. Peace

I can't believe we have played the toughest schedule in the last 5 years. Not much media talking about it. That coupled with all the injuries sure would make for a challenging year without all the other stuff (bad coaching, kicking, rookie QB, no WR corps, etc). .590 going into this week, and .562 over the last 3 years (#1 in NFL over that period as well).

What a good start on offense 3 plays TD and no negative plays. But damn does our kicking game suck

http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...7b-1149a35f5625 It's been a tough year but take a moment to listen to this interview with Zach Miller. Best wishes to Zach on his recovery.

With all the talk of the money wasted by Pace and his so so selections in the draft and free agency we could be in a good situation in the offseason. It looks like the contracts are Bears friendly and prove it and you get paid or we move on without it majorly affecting our cap. The contracts below are from over the cap and the only players I would definitely want to keep are Trevathan with a possibility of Sitton, Demps and Young. Then if you consider the injuries to starters and hope this will improve especially if they can work out why it’s happening. I have always wondered if the state of the field at Soldier Field attributes to the soft tissue injuries. If yo…

Long and Unrein placed on IR today. http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-r...c5-72c9bc30c768 Peace

Welcome to our third kicker of the year. What a train wreck!!! http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...1204-story.html Peace

Since this year is trash, time to look forward. I think we need to pick up 2 WRs in FAgency from a pretty good group and then draft one or two in the draft. In the draft we are going to get a top 5 pick so we should be able to move back and grab a couple of extra picks from someone looking for a QB.(Giants, Broncos, Cardinals, Jets, Dolphins,Chargers, Bills) Buffalo has two first round picks and two second round picks , so for sake of this article, we trade our (projected 1-4 pick) to Buffalo for (projected 1-15 and 1-20 plus 2- 51 picks) So in the draft we have 2 1sts, and 2- 2nds, with those picks in the first round we get a OT and OLB, in the second…

As this could help the Giants get a late win or two and possibly enhance Bears draft pick. We are likely to get a top 5 pick, but in a pretty tough spot since we will likely beat the Browns. Hard to do much better then 5 or so, unless we lose out. There are a lot of really bad teams.

And we won't even fire our offensive coordinator. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/2166599...doo-two-seasons Peace

He's 36 for 38 since leaving the Bears. Peace

Marcus Cooper 1 defensive snap. Markus Wheaton 1 offensive snap. Adam Shaheen 9 offensive snaps. WTF is this coaching staff doing? Peace

There is no way Fox and any of the coordinators are at minimum back next season. Hopefully, some get pink slips today... However, the bigger question now is does Pace get to choose the next or should he be bounced too? He's certainly made some hits and certainly some misses. I've personally come to the conclusion that I don't care either way. If he stays, he's shown enough to get one last chance to get it right. If he goes, so be it. He's made enough mistakes to warrant it. That said, if Pace goes, I want Sweatty Teddy put back on the calculator and hire a real president of football operations. I want a full clean. Hire the right man to hire the ri…

Start with the injury report: http://bearswire.usatoday.com/2017/12/01/i...ek-13-vs-49ers/ Trevathan is back and no longer listed on the injury report. Also looks like RRH will return. I'm hopeful he'll see the field because I still think he has good long term potential. Josh Sitton looks like he'll be a game time decision but did practice on Thur. We'll get to see the return of Lamar Houston. I think we're fortunate to pick him up this late in the season. I'm not overstating his ability but this late in the season it's almost impossible to find someone who knows your defense and can at least contribute right away. The big mystery is who will play …
