Bearstalk

Go figure. Bad FB coach is bad.

I know there is a lot of angst about PFF and there is valid debate about their scoring system. Nonetheless, to be listed among top 10 players in the entire league for Week 5 is a really good sign for our rookie center. Did anyone expect to see Whitehair on a list that has players such as Von Miller, Tom Brady, and ex-Bear Mason Foster? https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro-top-10...-week-5-action/

Cool tribute

Congrats! http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...1102-story.html

Broke his right foot and is out for the season according to Lou Canellis. And the hits just keep on coming. Peace

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/1827138...er-devin-hester One day. Let him retire as a Bear.

And that should be the end of his time in Chicago. http://www.windycitygridiron.com/2016/12/1...freeman-returns With Jerrell Freeman back it will be great to see how Kwiatkoski plays. After showing some promise last year Timu has been a big liability out there these last few games. Pairing Kwiatkoski with Freeman should allow to even further assess how much he's improved.

Hester said he is retiring after his stellar performance returning for Seattle (194 yds) in yesterdays playoff game. Pace better get on the phone and propose he hold off and contemplate a send off from the Bears. He was one of the most electricfiling players in history and a tribute of him would electrify those emotions he brought everytime he stepped on the field.

I think it was just last week and at least a couple of us were speculating on how the QBs would fare as the draft analysis moved forward. I said I felt Kizer would move up quite a bit from his late 1st/early 2nd Rd slot. It seems that process is starting to happen. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/nf...10-with-no-qbs/ Here Kizer is ranked 13th overall, 2 spots behind Trubisky who is 11th overall. Jeremiah has Kizer 15th overall, Trubisky way down the road at 31st. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000077...-2017-nfl-draft It's still early and these are just a couple opinions but overall I get the sense both of these QBs will …

Scanning around for tidbits of info and came across one comment from a message board where they liked Ty Nsekhe as a FA signing. Said he did pretty good when filling in for Trent Williams on the Redskins. Tweet from Junior Gallette: https://twitter.com/JovaisG/status/797842366040313856 "Ty Nsehke Would start Left Tackle on 80% of teams in the League so he's ready but it won't be easy against a Top tier rusher in Everson" Trent Williams gives him some praise here as well: http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2...s-2-0/89217218/ He's 31 years old but was with the Saints in 2014 so Pace has some familiarity with him. Redskins have the exclusiv…

Sources are reporting the Browns will release Josh McCown.

With the 49ers new DC having mostly a 4-3 background it would seem that's the direction they are going. Fans on one message board are not too enamored with Arik Armstead and if they switch to a 4-3 most speculate he'll end up at LDE. Not an ideal fit for his skills. If nothing else most seem to want a top tier FA DT brought in which would move AA to a backup role, or kick him outside to LDE. All of which makes it possible to see AA on the trade block. We'll see which FA the 49ers are connected to when we get to the combine as that could give a good idea where they see AA fit on their D. Other than that it's no surprise their fans are focused on the same ta…

Dammit this is truly a disappointing day so far...

The Bears have a lot of cash left and the choices are dwindling. WR is a huge need. Why aren't the Bears linked to Michael Floyd? I'd love to see him replace Jeffery.

http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/2016/ Here is the list of contracts from last year. If we look at all the contracts over 7 mil per year average how many were successful? the list has 17 over 7 mil of those you would only consider 5 to be over whelming successful Vernon/DE Mack/OC Harrison/DT OsemeleOG Jenkins/CB another 3 you would say was worth it Brooks/OG McLeod/FS Irvin/OLB out of 17 50% stuck out out of our free agents Freeman - huge success Trevathan- jury still out Hicks- huge success Si…

No one wants Cutler. So sign him to the minimum and have him be the no. 2, after we draft the future, of course. Weird, hey, the Twighlite Zone exits!!!
