http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2010/03/so...ng_imminen.html Wow if that's true, that's awesome! Still not reading too much into this report until it's actually official but I thought he was looking for something like 16 million a year.

To discuss all the moves. You can catch it at chicagobears.com or 670thescore.com (if you like to hear people interrupt with inane comments throughout).

http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/...with-bears.html Sorry to see him go. Best of luck to an awesome and dedicated player.

Can our two biggest weapons reach 1000 yards? With nine games left Forte has 456 yards rushing.That means he is 564 yards short of 1000. So if we feed him the ball over the next nine games he has to gain at least 62 yards per game. Marshall on the other hand has 575 yards receiving, so he is 325 yards short of 1000. So Marshall has to gain 325 yards over the next nine games and average at least 36 yards per game.......do you think they both get to the 1000 yard mark?

Hello everyone , Its been a while since I posted. I hope everybody is doing good ? Let me ask you what would be your offensive game plan be for tonight? We all know what our defense will do, #1 stop the run and #2 then play the pass. And if the Texans are charitable our "D" will have no problem of receiving such gifts. Game time weather and field conditions should be considered in your thoughts.

To the "TalkBears" family, all my best during this Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Holidays. Hopefully this finds you all where you want to be in life and spending it with those who mean the most to you. Like in real families there are squabbles and disagreements. So is true here at the Talk Bears forum. I find myself, as I age, that my patience grows thin and I tend to spout off as if suddenly striken by Tourettes. Whatever the case may be it is clear we all love (that too strong a word?) our team. I am thankful that they are currently 7-3. I am hopeful they continue to win more than lose. After this year will my, Jason's or Brian's opinions matter? …

Well i guess you know by now that the real problem with our team is the Oline period. Not the play calling, turnovers etc. Its just that our guys on the line either cant block or just don't want to block. We need to find guys that really want to play with a nasty attitude about blocking. i have said this many times.....our line is SOFT!!!!!! Webb is a big joker who smiles too much.....Garza is old....Carimi is sorry (maybe the knee is still his problem) Spencer is not ok and Luis is somewhat ok. But our tackles are getting our QB's killed......really 5.5 sacks to just one guy.....like they say COM ON MAN!!!!!!!! We had a guy quit cause he got his ass benched........reall…

I looked at some stats today and found a nugget of interesting data. But first, what does the media spew out all the time about "Lovie Smith's defense"? OMG! They're going to strip the ball. They're going to get turnovers. Well, guess what? They're tied for 13th in the NFL in terms of forced fumbles with 14. And on top of that, only three teams in the top 16 recover less of those forced fumbles. >TEAM FF REC PER KC 15 16 106.67% DEN 14 13 92.86% PHI 23 21 91.30% NYJ 18 16 88.89% BUF 15 13 86.67% PIT 19 15 78.95% ARI 14 11 78.57% TEN 17 12 70.59% MIA 18 12 …

Somehow this flew under the radar, but Patrick Mannelly signed a 1 year extension today.

Ok everyone i found a tracker with regards to possible free agents and how they graded out in 2012. Check it out www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2013/01/07/2013-pff-free-agency-tracker/ Free Agency Tracker

Nice to see some validation for these guys. Melton was the only guy to drop off from the Pro Bowl roster for the Bears. First Team WR Brandon Marshall, Bears CB Charles Tillman, Bears Second Team DE Julius Peppers, Bears CB Tim Jennings, Bears http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100000012...-headline-teams?

Seems as if many of these sites agree with my original idea of MLB... Im not sold on Mani until the combine http://www.draftcountdown.com/sub/Mock-Draft-B.php

No news on the much anticipated new WR coach. I guess it's addition by subtraction with Drake being gone.

So this article caught my attention yesterday: http://www.twincities.com/vikings/ci_22440...r-bill-callahan Although I'm not quite sure what happened in reading this article Trestman's silence is worth noting. That and stories that have circulated that Trestman has been difficult to work with in the past could gain traction and especially explain why he didn't get his chance in the big time until as of late. I can tell you that Callahan is in fact a pile of dung. Being a follower of Nebraska football I can tell you between he and AD Peterson in the early 2000's they knocked Nebraska football back a few years by tinkering with what worked for decades. Call…

I believe there may be a run on offensive linemen therefore we trade our first to whichever of Ari, Buff, or Jax who I believe will be trading up in the to get either Smith or Glennon. For this mock I will be using Jax as our trade partner. In regards to FE: Melton 4/26 Louis 2/4 Levitre 5/35 Url: no more than three a year. I'd give him 1/2. Roach: 2/5 Draft: 33. Terrance Williams--can be our receiver to blow the top off as well as a good redzone target. 52. Menelik Watson-- explosive and athletic. Can play both tackle positions and instin 66. Barrett Jones--His stock is falling for some reason. We all know what he brings. …

Since things have become clearer with the Bears tagging Melton. Whats next? We restructure contracts for players that will be here for a while. Marshall, extended three years, Jennings extended 3 years, Gould extended 2 years. Bennett extended 2 years. We resign Idonije for one year, Collins for 2 years, D.J. Moore for one, Melton for a 5 year 39 mil deal, 6 mil against cap this year. we cut Davis, Hester, Spaeth, Toenia. We sign in FAgency Brad Jones/MLB, Daryrl Smith/OLB, (worked with Tucker in Jac) King Dunlop/LT (a better LT than Webb)read the stats (to whom it may concern),Chase Daniels/QB (ties to Kroner) We trade down with AZ to get #38,6…

per Schefter. There goes another option

I thought maybe we needed one of these - lots of players talked about around here are off the board. -Andy Levitre - Titans (five year, $39 million deal) -Louis Vasquez - Broncos (four-year, $23.5 million) -Chase Daniel - Chiefs
