Bearstalk

Per Adam Hoge on Twitter: "Things are tense today at Halas Hall. A loud argument between players just erupted in the hallway adjacent to the media room. Hard to tell exactly who was involved. #Bears" IMO - Fox is losing this team. Peace

With Demps designated to return, the Bears can no longer bring back Kevin White this year, which officially ends his season. Demps joins Hall as the two (and only) players that the Bears can designate to return from IR.

Saw this quote in an article from Loggains. Makes you wonder how inaccurate Trubisky was (vs. just how bad / sloppy the wideouts were). Should be no shock that McBride is gone. I still think Mitch was inaccurate, but those are the things that are always hard to tell as a fan.

So let's say we're sold on Trubisky. I'm not completely 100%, but I see potential. Nonetheless, this class is LOADED. At what point do you consider drafting a guy if he slips? I've seen mocks where guys like Josh Allen slips to the third, and Baker Mayfield slips to the fourth, which would be unbelievable to me. I'd say the third or fourth round is when the Bears should start considering the QB position. Regardless of depth, the QB position needs to be considered every year until a stud backup is acquired.

Let's say the Bears end up where they are at or slightly better in the draft. With all the clamor and hype for QBs this year, is there a player good enough for the Bears to stay where they are at? Convince me, and likely everyone else, why the Bears should stay where they are at. Because I don't see it. This is a 100% trade back kind of draft.

He has been cleared to practice. Looks like Mr. White is not coming back this season. Peace

I think Amos may be done for the year. http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...5b-6f8c43e9f6dc Peace

He's practicing again per Brad Biggs and could be activated in the next couple of weeks. Peace

Are we already in mock draft territory? I think we are. Here's my first fanspeak mock. 10: R1P10 EDGE ARDEN KEY LSU 42: R2P10 WR CALVIN RIDLEY ALABAMA 112: R4P10 OT JAMARCO JONES OHIO STATE 114: R4P12 CB ADONIS ALEXANDER VIRGINIA TECH 148: R5P10 CB JAMAL PETERS MISSISSIPPI STATE 189: R6P10 G BRADEN SMITH AUBURN I think we'll draft higher than 10, but it's a good place to start. And if it happens like this, I'll be floored. Arden Key is probably the best possible 3-4 OLB available, and I think Ridley is the best WR in the nation. That would be incredible. Following that up with a solid OT is great. Adonis Alexander could easily play safety sinc…

They gave out some interesting grades for some Bears. Several offensive linemen made their top 4 for Week 11: Leno the highest graded OT, Massie 4th: https://twitter.com/PFF/status/933157093095411712 Whitehair the highest graded C: https://twitter.com/PFF/status/933126895025221632 Shaheen the top rated TE: https://twitter.com/PFF/status/933096774763294720 Josh Sitton, 3rd highest G: https://twitter.com/PFF/status/933089394788937728 DI Mitch Unrein, 81.0 overall grade and highest rated defender https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/pro-r...hicago-bears-24 I have no clue how they grade, but it is clear that they apply no context to…

I don't think we win this one, but I don't think we lose by 14. Trap game for Philly looking ahead to SEA. Mid 40's for game time temperature....Bear weather. Philly is #1 against the run, but that may be due to their early leads. Overall defenses are comparable in overall yards, but Philly has a bunch more INTs and PD's. Again, this may be due to their leads and teams needing to pass more against them. If our offense takes another step forward and our defense doesn't lay an egg, we will at least look competitive. It would be nice to see both sides of the ball play well in the same game. PHI 27-20

Day after, and I feel hungover. Not from actual drinking, but from the season already. Not that I watched the whole game...I bowed out when we went down by 21 to watch the Red Zone Channel. This team is done for the season. They are checked out. I don't think we beat SF. SF is fighting hard and have a better coaching staff than us. I think the only one we win is against the Browns. We go 4-12. That said, like the team, I'm a bit checked out. It's hard watching Tru struggle with bad play calling, stupid penalties and no talent around him. I'll still stick with it, but I literally wish there was a Madden "Simulate Rest of Season" button. We have some tal…

Dead last. For single seasons, in 2017, played WR, requiring Targets >= 79, sorted by descending Catch Pct https://www.pro-football-reference.com/play...er_by=catch_pct

Is anyone done caring about 2017? It's going to be hard to have anything to look forward to this year!

To my dysfunctional TalkBears family; Happy Thanksgiving!! We are no doubt the best, smartest and wisest group of Bears fans ever in all their history. It’s an honor to gripe alongside all of you throughout all these years! Here’s to one day again hoisting that damn Lombardi trophy someday over the beloved orange and blue! May it be sooner than later! All my best to all of you...yes all of you!!!

There it is. Santos is the new kicker

Our cycle this year has been Loss-Loss-Win, Loss-Loss-Win-Win, Loss-Loss. So I am figuring this will be another one of those weird wins at home. Bears 23 - Lions 16

Came across this film study from a former NFL Offensive Coordinator.
